I keep saying this but since everyone kinda just let SESTA/FOSTA pass on through this was bound to happen. SWs were calling it out from jump, years ago. Once y'all threw them under the bus they started climbing the ladder.

Fujimoto no you can’t have Li’l D lift her skirt like that you know your readers don’t have media literacy and will take it the wrong wa- Oh my god not another one Fujimoto stop please we- Oh god another- Fuji- Oh god!

The bullshittification of reality.

“Facebook parent company Meta has reportedly tapped conservative, anti-diversity activist Robby Starbuck as an artificial intelligence ‘bias’ advisor.”🤔

PSA: Ask someone from Tennessee how absurd this is.

It’s important to remember cisgender women getting hurt by this is a feature not a bug as it both makes trans women fearful of existing in public and signals to cis women how they must act to be protected by the state.

Will a STAAR-Crossed Legislature Finally Enact Real Testing Reform? It’s on the agenda at the Texas Capitol, but advocates worry heavy-handed "accountability" will remain intact.

New today: “They’re erasing a generation of STEM, likely students of color, in the largest school district in Texas. The test is so high-stakes now that it eliminates anything else that is also beneficial for kids.”

This remains nonsense reasoning. A cis teenaged boy prescribed testosterone to masculinize his appearance b/c his body is not naturally producing it for whatever reason & a trans teenage boy prescribed testosterone are getting *the same treatment*. The ban is entirely based on the sex of the patient

The Taquerias Are Not Okay As immigration actions continue across the state, owners of Mexican dining establishments point to employee fear and declines in customers.

While LA is under siege by ICE & receiving the deserved national attention, ICE, DHS & other fed agencies are operating quietly in TX, w/o much statewide or national reporting. The fear is real. I chime in. It's my professional & personal responsibility. I hope you'll take time to read it.

Literally, my child will die if we don't quickly save his life with emergency surgery.
I am poor, I have no money, and I don't want to lose my child.
I beg you and implore you to save my child.

Trump takes over MPD and deploys the National Guard City leaders have called the move a "manufactured intrusion on local authority."

In an almost unprecedented move in D.C.’s 50-year experience with self-governance, President Donald Trump on Monday took control of the Metropolitan Police Department, putting its 3,100 sworn officers under his direct command for the next 30 days. 51st.news/dc-trump-mpd...

Immigrant detentions in NJ and Pa. rise as more people without criminal records are held Detentions in the two states are up two-thirds since January. The increase has come from people ICE classifies as non-criminal.

The number of people detained in ICE custody in New Jersey and Pennsylvania was up about 68% in July compared to figures at the start of President Donald Trump’s administration.

Grossly irresponsible of the Times to have this ludicrous credulous spin as the top story the morning after a president who rules by fiat proclaims a totally specious emergency to militarize the capital - an editorial insult to our intelligence and our democracy.

Trump's Washington police takeover echoes history of racist narratives about urban crime President Donald Trump has taken control of the District of Columbia’s law enforcement and ordered National Guard troops to deploy onto the streets of the nation’s capital.

AP calls it what it is.

The regime does fascism upside down, openly announces itself as doing the scariest, fashiest things (federalizing police) while being unprepared and unorganized to actually do anything. It's like the "stock market has nothing to do with underlying economic value" theory applied to statecraft

LEAK: Trump's DC Deployment Order Read the National Guard order sending troops to our nation's capital

DC National Guard deployment order leaked to me. Read it here: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/leak-trump...

this dc situation looks pretty horrible. i wish i had more to say except that autocracy is always mundane and petty and vicious and encourages you to look away and be safe. and you can live quite normally under it until you're a direct target

As a reminder: Trump’s first act was to pardon HUNDREDS of J6 rioters who assaulted and beat DC police officers. Trump’s been responsible for a large percentage of the total assaults (and many of the worst/most brutal) on DC police in the last decade.

sure would be cool if there was an opposition party to challenge any of this

Pointing out how safe DC by showing the low crime rates isn’t going to convince conservatives because “people breaking the actual law” isn’t what they mean by “crime”. To them, “crime” includes merely seeing black people, unhoused people, and anyone else the bigots clutch pearls about as “crime”

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

hope everyone that enabled copaganda to spread in the last 5 years and allowed police to continue existing (and to get ballooning budget support) feels good and smart right now. Trump is being direct about the purpose of police: a violent, racist, classist organization to ensure state domination

DC is FORTY-ONE PERCENT Black.

Do you understand?

Speechless.
