Pundits are focusing on Kirk’s willingness to debate people while studiously ignoring the people whose basic humanity he was willing to debate

The Wall Street Journal is now walking back its earlier reporting that "transgender ideology" messages were found on the shooter's ammunition.

But it's too late. That story is all around the country and the world. Most who have read it will not see the update.

Thanks, WSJ.

When you publish a website that posts the names and photos of scholars who have written or said things you disagree with and encourage people to surveil and harass them, you are not, in fact, a “free speech” organization.

FBI Director Kash Patel at Utah Valley University press conference.

Patel has been busy dismantling the FBI and weakening it in order to prevent it from going after Trump.

A crisis shows up & they're desperate to use the resources of the FBI they weakened. It's a dark comedy playing out right now.

Now we know, they have no idea where the shooter is, or even who the shooter is...for that matter. I mean, what could go wrong when you have an FBI Director with no experience...and an idiot president who insisted on firing the most experienced and longest serving experts at the FBI.

Why isn’t the unemployment of Black womens a feminist four alarm fire?

The president declares war on Chicago 😕

Matter of Jonathan Javier YAJURE HURTADO, Respondent Decided September 5, 2025 U.S. Department of Justice Executive Office for Immigration Review Board of Immigration Appeals Based on the plain language of section 235(b)(2)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2)(A) (2018), Immigration Judges lack authority to hear bond requests or to grant bond to aliens who are present in the United States without admission.

🚨NEW: Reversing *generations* of practice, the Board of Immigration Appeals gives ICE exactly what it demanded, ruling that any undocumented immigrant who entered illegally is categorically ineligible for release from detention on bond — expanding mandatory detention by millions of people.

Remembering the late Musician, Freddie Mercury (5 September 1946 – 24 November 1991)

More than 300k Black women being pushed out of the labor market while white men gained 365k more jobs is what we mean when we refer to racism as systemic.

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60’s, so here’s a fact check.

In 1965:

-42% of American adults smoked; it’s 11% now.

-The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; it’s 5.6/1000 now.

-Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.

Black Women Pushed Out Of The Workforce Is Economic Lynching In this op-ed, Dr. Stacey Patton writes that Black women are getting pink slips instead of nooses, and the cost will ripple through Black Communities for generations.

"Meanwhile, the very group that carried this nation through COVID, propped up the economy with essential labor, and saved democracy at the ballot box gets ghosted by both corporate America and the political elite."

Video shows Department of Justice official urging Jan. 6 rioters to 'kill' cops The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

Stephen Colbert is going SCORCHED EARTH right now. To RFK Jr: “Fuck you, you roid-addled nepo carnie! Fuck you, you roadkill-munching Luddite human slim jim!”

Also, men watch and film women get hurt all the time. By other men.

Pure Soviet shit...

And we're officially at the end of being able to trust the jobs numbers in this country ever again.

Wow

“Even God Cannot Hear Us Here”: What I Witnessed Inside an ICE Women’s Prison Tufts University doctoral student Rümeysa Öztürk opens up about her 45 days in a South Louisiana processing facility—and the generous and compassionate women she met.

Here are the 128 House Democrats who voted to table (kill) the Rep. Al Green D-TX impeachment resolution against President Trump over the Iran attacks.

Self- care today. Rage- care.

Didn't think I could make it out of the chair but I did.

Still very upset about yesterday's SCOTUS ruling. Going to drop this 🧵 and then spend the day taking care of myself.

But if you don't understand what a slippery slope "not required to treat based on diagnosis is" then you don't know what's just been codified into law. 1/

Seeing the photos of Brad Lander’s arrest yesterday I ask again:

Why is the onus on protestors to be "peaceful" when the State brings violence? Why is "rioting" used to malign only the people fighting violence initiated by the State and its agents, and not those agents and that State?

Looks like that "White van filled with men that will kidnap you" story that scared us when we were kids is now 100% true

The patriarchy atop theocracy melange of Iran’s “morality police” is easier to see because it is so visibly expressed in enforced hijab. But what is the enforced pregnancy of the Christian zealots in the U.S. but a melange of patriarchy built atop theocracy right here?

Sotomayor points out the similarities between the Skrmetti ruling allowing discrimination against transgender people's medical care to Virginia's argument for its interracial marriage ban in Loving.

Nope, no surprise. They're always after us.

I need more fellow white folks to grapple with the complexity of this history and the day to day reality it presents. Right now, in my city, a dear friend and elected is being politically charged by the same police that she's supposed to trust to protect her from violent threats and harassment. How?

Happy Obama Appreciation Day

Let's get these people some help! ❤️
