revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.
Look, I'm just gonna tell cishet white people right now--Newsom ain't the one. You got Walz and Pritzker out here. You do not need a Bill Clinton clone wearing Mitt Romney's skin.

this isn't fedposting, or shouldn't be. one of the penalties for what pete hegseth and general bradley has apparently done -- what bradley has admitted to -- is death. after a finding of precisely what he admitted to.

@usrowingorg.bsky.social released its regatta packets for 2026, and quietly changed its rules to ban trans athletes from competing with their self-identified gender. They did this SHADILY as hell. They marked all changes from previous years with an asterisk except for this.
