All conspiracy theories eventually lead to antisemitism.

With SCOTUS set to legalize conversion therapy, I think it's important for states to get around this decision by implementing new legislation applying private rights of action to practitioners of conversion therapy by their victims with large damages and long statutes of limitations.

To “make” the proof. Jesus.

Fuentes: “Jews are running society, women need to shut the fuck up, Blacks need to be imprisoned for the most part, and we would live in paradise; it's that simple.”

For people that like to refer to themselves as progressives, many sure do seem to have trouble understanding that progress is made by steps, not leaps.

love it when the bus driver doesnt know the names of stops on the route he's driving. public transit will be the death of me

A guy who declares war on his own country should not get a peace prize.

No clearer indication of the right’s moral rot than the swift evolution from angrily denying any association with buffoonish bigots like like Posobiec and Fuentes, to “there’s no harm in having a conversation,” to openly praising and promoting them.

So yesterday a reporter asked Donald Trump about the writ of habeas corpus, and he had no idea what it was.

"I don't know," he said. "I'd rather leave that to Kristi."

Well, It turns out Sen. Hassan asked Kristi Noem about it in May, and this was Noem's response:

The MMR vaccine is one of the most stunningly effective medical therapeutics in existence. It’s also safer than most of your everyday activities. This is simply an attempt to stop people from vaccinating.

Middle East experts ‘cautiously optimistic’ over Trump’s Gaza peace plan, but see little role for Canada to play ‘Anything that stops the war’ is a net benefit, no matter who’s involved, says former Canadian ambassador to Israel Jon Allen.

To understand the Trump administration’s vision for American education, @megomatz.bsky.social and I studied dozens of hours of political appointees’ speeches and podcasts and essays. What emerged is a desire to dismantle the nation’s system of public schools.

We would like to thank Kristi Noem for bringing cameras with her everywhere and collecting evidence for her future trial at The Hague.

At @hrc.org, we. show. up.
