These strikes actually were “preemptive” in so far as they preempted Congress being able to vote on the Khanna-Massie War Powers Resolution

Israel and the US dropped bombs in a city with a population of 9 million people. Needlessly and recklessly endangering millions of civilians in the middle of Ramadan 💔

Here’s Commissioner Kotagal’s excellent dissent

Re-upping this in light of the EEOC ignoring Bostock and its own precedent to say a federal employee in Kansas can’t use a bathroom that corresponds with her gender identity simply because she’s trans. Disgraceful but I’m grateful for Commissioner Kotagal continuing to dissent and uphold the law

As transgender Kansans grapple with a challenging new reality today, and the rest of the nation watches what’s happening in the Sunflower State, here’s a thread of @kansasreflector.com stories and opinion pieces about SB 244. (1/15) #ksleg #trans #lgbtq

Burger King employees don't get paid nearly enough to have to put up with this crap, tbh

This story shook me to my core.

But before becoming assistant AG for civil rights at DOJ, Harmeet Dhillon joined him in requesting SCOTUS grant cert in the case. SCOTUS declined www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24...

Texan Allegedly Bullied Over His Skin Color Appeals To SCOTUS In the spirit of San Jacinto, Warden’s case represents a key battle over a new frontier: racism against white people.

FYI the deputy ag for civil rights on DOJ’s bs suit against UCLA for alleged antisemitism rocketed to his position from counsel after just 9 months. Before DOJ, he worked on cases like this that were so absurd even the Fifth Circuit dismissed it

Many workers have missed shifts without jobs being destroyed making it challenging to measure labor impacts with conventional sources.

We use real-time daily data from Homebase to measure impacts. Thanks to UChicago and Homebase for making the data available.

At tonight’s SOTU, Trump will toss out cherry-picked numbers. But they miss the point. The real question is simple: are working people better off than a year ago? On what shapes daily life—prices, paychecks, and job security—the answer is no.

Trump sues UC over alleged 'hostile' environment for Jewish and Israeli UCLA employees The Trump administration on Tuesday sued the University of California over what it said is an 'ongoing hostile work environment' for Jewish and Israeli employees.

State Dept. nominee espoused antisemitic views, downplayed the Holocaust Carl mused about the need to address the ‘Jewish Question’ and characterized Jews as religiously incorrect and in need of conversion

Really hard to buy the Trump DOJ claim its suit against UCLA is about combatting antisemitism when Trump is currently trying to get this guy confirmed by the Senate

It gets worse. The architects of Project 2025 have released a plan to increase birthrates by undoing decades of progress for women. Like Project 2025, I expect to see these proposals put into action by the Trump admin soon

For moms, and highly educated Black moms in particular, this is a crisis. Rather than policies that support moms (paid leave, child care, elder care) the administration is focused on policies that push women out of jobs
