Rubio Today: Itβs false to say I said the U.S. had to attack because Israel was going to attack. Thatβs not what I said.
Rubio Yesterday: We knew Israel was going to strike Iran, and that would trigger attacks on U.S. forces. If we didnβt act first, Americans would suffer higher casualties.

In Defense of Effeminate Boys
If anyone had suggested that I might really be a girl, I donβt know how I would have responded.
By Ben Appel
No one before Ben has ever considered that trans women might actually be effeminate gay boys. No one has ever suggested such a thing to us, repeatedly, in a bid to prevent us from transitioning, or developed entire typologies around the idea, or reinforced it in multiple academic fields!

βIn this courageous memoir, Ben Appel recounts his journey from a fundamentalist Christian cult to a queer Ivy League subculture, highlighting the unsettling parallels between these two seemingly contrasting worlds. Challenged to reevaluate his deeply rooted beliefs, he grows increasingly alarmed about the psychological and physical harm radical gender ideology is inflicting on young gay people. Having broken free from two forms of mental captivity, Appel underscores the vital importance of something all too rare: thinking for oneself.β
β James Kirchick, author of Secret City: The Hidden History of Gay Washington
βRare are the men who exhibit the kind of stouthearted strength to stand up and cut against the grain when it costs them. Rarer still are those who show the steely resolve and go to great lengths to describe what they have seen in luminous detail so that others may understand. Appel has done both with his bright writing, and he more than deserves a hearing.β
β The Christian Post
Oh, it's the "queer people are just like a cult" guy getting an Atlantic byline for echoing what fundamentalists and conservatives say about LGBT people. Oh, joy.

But these are things us as Americans should be prepared for.
There is a reason that most presidents including W Bush steered clear of any type of battle involving Iran.

What's scary about this story is the surveillance it hints at. This trans woman had changed her name, legally, but chose not to change her gender marker. She was apparently flagged in the DMV system as trans and her license was invalidated under a law that supposedly only concerned gender markers.

Kaine on Fox: "The president can act to defend US against imminent attack without congressional approval. But if you're going to initiate war, you need Congress. The president not only did not come to Congress, he acted without even notification to the vast majority of us. This is an illegal war."

Federal Circuit rejects Trump adminβs request for a 90-day delay on the Supreme Court tariff ruling. The court orders the mandate issued immediately. No stall. No slow-walk. When you lose at SCOTUS, you donβt get a grace period to dodge the consequences. Rule of law means now, not later.
