This is a country that 2x rejected qualified women as POTUS & chose a *serial rapist* instead.

This is a country where women's civil rights vary at the whims of 50 state legislatures.

But ask Americans to identify the biggest problems facing us: misogyny is so baked in it's almost never mentioned.

it's remarkably bleak that Trump has been accused of sexual misconduct by dozens of women, including an allegation that was adjudicated and in which he was found liable for sexual assault, and yet the American public needs still MORE evidence of his depraved character and unfitness.

If your institution isn't pursuing a mutual defense compact, how do we get you started?

Jessica: Abrego Garcia's legal status was approved by the Trump administration in 2019, and every year since then, he has checked in with the departed of homeland security, and no one has said anything about him being a gang banger.

'It’s a time to be brave’: Cornell professor talks federal funding freeze Risa Lieberwitz, president of Cornell’s chapter of the American Association of University Professors, says Cornell should stand up against potential demands from the White House.

β€œInstitutions that stood up are remembered for standing up to that power & that coercion, they're remembered for their acts of bravery. Institutions that capitulated are remembered for their willingness to cave to autocratic demands.”

White House Eyes Overhaul of Federal Housing Aid to the Poor The Trump administration has considered sharply curtailing vouchers as part of its budget for the 2026 fiscal year.

It's no exaggeration to say that this Administration exhibits utter contempt for the entirety of humankind on a daily basis.

It stands in violent opposition to anything decent or kind.

The only possible explanation is that everyone involved in this vicious enterprise has a thoroughly broken soul.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition β€” and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia.

I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

The great thing about fighting back against this stuff is that if you end up losing anyway you get the same outcome you’d have gotten from complying but you don’t have to fucking hate yourself too.

Why My Firm Is Standing Up for the Constitution Big Law should remain independent rather than have the government dictate who it represents.

Trump's executive orders targeting law firms are unconstitutional and threaten judicial independence. Firms should sue to stop them, Adam Unikowsky argues.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a β€œterrorist,” who was β€œsent to the right place.”

This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.

He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

Another day to remember that Vladimir Putin wants to weaken the US & blow up the global political, legal, & economic order, & so far Trump has done nothing but try to weaken the US & blow up the global political, legal, & economic order.

MAGA’s Class Warfare Against Knowledge Workers Is Personal Trump and Musk want to destroy, not simply vanquish, a whole class of Americans considered incorrigible obstacles to American Greatness.

Franklin Foer crystallized it best, but a lot of us are beginning to realize MAGA is waging class warfare against one big chunk of the population (knowledge workers) while preparing to screw over another (poor people). nymag.com/intelligence...
