MAGA Inches Closer to a Ghislaine Maxwell Alliance Is perpetrating heinous crimes against children too big a hurdle for a political alliance of convenience? Maybe not.

"Not even a month ago, the idea of Trump supporters openly embracing a convicted child sex trafficker would have been unimaginable." Well, Trump sure grows some folks' imaginations.

I Am Suing the Department of Justice for the Epstein Files Training Videos On July 20th, I was the first to report the existence of training videos instructing FBI personnel how to flag mentions of Trump and others in the Epstein files. Today, I'm suing for those videos.

We can’t treat our supporters like shit. No amount of money is worth the hit to the relationship.

The people of Texas urged us to do anything we could to stop the Trump Regime's attempt to take political power away from millions of working families.

We heard you.

That’s why we’ve decided to deny quorum and fight this power grab with everything we’ve got. #txlege

We are under a dictatorship. The Heritage Foundation crossed the line long ago and will continue to do so. We need to fight back. It's up to "US" now!

There is a reason we have a full complement of emotions. Sometimes, anger is absolutely justifiable. Anger is a driving force. Anger motivates. Anger helps us to stand up for those who can't. Anger shows you care.

Congress should pass the bipartisan BARK Act, my bill to save millions of pounds of perfectly good pet food from the trash and get it to the growing population of hungry shelter dogs and cats.

We can do this. Let’s get it done.

I'm not worried about receiving health care at the VA. I know the vast majority of VA health care professionals are fully committed to treating all veterans. I'm worried about how Trump's executive order normalizes retribution against anyone who doesn't align with him and his followers.

Trans people account for 1.3% of the population. That is not counting nonbinary people that do not explicitly identify as trans (other surveys put that number at an even greater 2-3%)

If there are 52,000 accredited journalists, you'd expect 676 transgender ones.

Where are they in our major papers?

My more optimistic take on the whole β€œdid the protests do anything” debate is that here is value to showing you are not alone and that a massive number of people are willing to come out and be public even in very far right areas.

Organization takes time and a diversity of tactics is a positive.

The Definitive Story of Tesla Takedown In February, a Bluesky post caught the eye of Alex Winter. The result is a coalition of environmentalists, anti-Trump advocates, and federal workers that’s been hyping Tesla’s stock slide ever since.

On a sunny April afternoon in Seattle, about 40 people, gathered at a beer-and-pizza joint to do something unusual: listen to a company’s earnings call. They were there to take on Elon Musk.

They cheered and booed under a disco ball. A local TV crew showed up. The vibe was giddy.
