It's not just that they're going to strike down a law against conversion therapy, it's that they're going to do it on behalf of made-up claims from a straw plaintiff who can't honestly show the law affected her at all

I just want to keep saying that tear gas is

1) an abortifacient

2) extremely painful and scary

3) outright dangerous for people with respiratory issues

4) has effects, especially reproductive health effects, that long outlast the acute stage of exposure. I'm talking months of symptoms.

Imagine all the people like this we haven’t heard about at all and might never hear about

DHS begins targeting unaccompanied children with 'voluntary' deportation offer Children asked to waive right to see a judge in exchange for $2,500

The Department of Homeland Security has begun targeting unaccompanied children in the immigration system with what they call a “voluntary option” to return to their countries of origin. via @laist.com

there should be dessert trucks that just prowl the neighborhoods in the evening hours, playing light jazz and offering an array of pies and tiramisus for a reasonable price

Screenshot of war.gov: “He is no more important than your son, all precious souls made in the image and likeness of God. Every parent deserves to know that their son or their daughter that joins our ranks is entering exactly the kind of unit that the secretary of war would want his son to join. Think of it as the Golden Rule test. Jesus said do unto others that which you would have done unto yourself. It's the ultimate simplifying test of truth. The new War Department golden rule is this: do unto your unit as you would have done unto your own child's unit. Would you want him serving with fat or unfit or under trained troops or”

“Think of me like Jesus. Would you want YOUR son working next to FAT people? Would you?? 🫵
This is the NEW #WarDepartmentGoldenRule 😌“

Screenshot of war.gov: “You made a choice to serve when others did not, and I commend you. You are truly the best of America. But this does not mean, and this goes for all of us, that our path to this auditorium on this day was a straight line, or that the conditions of the formations we lead are where we want them to be. You love your country and we love this uniform, which is why we must do better.”

getting to the fun part I see… “I acknowledge your service - sure. But a lot of you don’t deserve to be here & im so brave to tell you that. If you’re a good soldier you’ll do what I say”

“we lost our way. We became the woke department” Lmaooo

The Department of Defense became “THE WOKE DEPARTMENT” ?? Is this a stand up routine

Screenshot of text on war.gov (Pete Hegseth’s speech to the generals) “America cannot do everything. The free world requires allies with real hard power, real military leadership and real military capabilities. The War Department is tackling and prioritizing all of these things, and I'll be giving a speech next month that'll showcase the speed, innovation and generational acquisition reforms we are undertaking urgently. Likewise, the nature of the threats we face in our hemisphere and in deterring China is another speech for another day coming soon. This speech today -- as I drink my coffee, this speech today is about people and it's about culture. The topic today is about the nature of ourselves, because no plan, no program, no reform, no formation will ultimately succeed unless we have the right people and the right culture at the War Department.”

“I’m the Secretary of WAR and I don’t have a tv show to speechify on anymore & I miss it 🤡 So I wrote this speech about all of you & ordered you here as a captive audience. Buckle up”

Screenshot of text on war.gov with the part in asterisks highlighted by the cursor: “And since waging war is so costly in blood and treasure, **we owe our republic a military that will win any war we choose** or any war that is thrust upon us.”

incredible logic here

Screenshot of text on war.gov with the part in asterisks highlighted using the cursor: “Our number one job, of course, is to be strong so that we can prevent war in the first place. The president talks about it all the time. It's called peace through strength. And as history teaches us, **the only people who actually deserve peace** are those who are willing to wage war to defend it.”

peter what does this mean

Man is really on the good shit. He woke up and was like “these tunnels are unconstitutional under the 14th amendment because they’re black”

Draper Pitch Meme FASCISM BUT ITS A 24/7 SHOPPING CHANNEL THAT RANDOMLY ARRESTS PEOPLE

She's bracing and saving to pay $2,800 a month for ACA health insurance next year Raiding retirement savings. Pondering job changes or even marriage. People who buy their own health insurance are strategizing ahead of major price hikes in 2026. Open enrollment starts Nov. 1.

it hits leading up to & during open enrollment when ppl go to buy or renew 2026 coverage & see the price increase w/ no subsidy because those don’t exist for 2026 unless Congress extends them

estimated 4 million+ ppl simply won’t enroll bc of that. extending the subsidies in Dec won’t help them

More than anything, they want to be patted on the head and told they're a good boy by the liberal elites

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured

a bald stick figure in a chair with his arms out in front like he’s typing on a keyboard, and he’s got the biggest angry frown imaginable and eyebrows that express frustrated bemusement

my daughter really captured my essence in this portrait of me “at work”

Coming up on 20 years of plaintiff's litigation and I can assure everyone:

A "mistake" which just so happens to be profitable for a company is always the intended outcome of the company's choices.

Corporate leaders openly admit that they will side with fascism over democracy, when democracy may produce policies they can’t profit from.

Screenshot of dialogue from The Office: Dwight: Yes I shouted “fire!”. I shouted many things! I also shouted instructions on how to get out of the building, so you can imagine my frustration as safety officer when nobody would heed of what– heeded– Michael: Hed. Hedded Dwight: When no one hedded– Michael: Take hedded of. Dwight: N-no one would take hedded of my instructions. Michael: Heed. Heed. Dwight: So, you– Michael: Take heed of. Dwight: And, well, I don't see my co-workers– Michael: Take heed of. Dwight: Hee-heeding this right now. Lawyer: Wh–what?

Illustration shows a scorpion riding the back of a dying green frog in the water saying “Why did you sting me? I shall die and you will surely die as well," said the frog. "Libtard," said the scorpion. "Trump 2028."

we wrote about this WH tactic recently. they’re asking journalists for expert source names and then using them to look up political donations in FEC records to try to discredit those sources as biased.
