Hillary Clinton once couldn’t even get a credit card in her own name. Yet some Gen Z women are being algorithm-fed β€œtradwife” fantasies without understanding the history. Women’s independence isn’t trauma. It’s evolution. #Pinks #Momsky

There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.

He’s not protecting others; he’s protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.

Lesly Rodriguez Gutierrez and her two kidsβ€”one of whom has severe disabilitiesβ€”were kidnapped by ICE last Tuesday. Ms. Gutierrez is a Colombia asylum-seeker. She was arrested after reporting for her check-in at the Tehama St. ICE office.

Lawyers have been unable to locate Gutierrez or her children.

ICE is an armed and murderous militia. This has been the violent, anti-democratic wet dream of the Texas GOP, who’s been hobnobbing and courting the armed militias of Texas for years. Here’s former TX GOP Alan West in Jan β€˜21 in front of our state capitol with his buddies, the Texas Militia

β€˜I Genuinely Am Upset That Your Kids Are Vaccinated’ Del Bigtree, a longtime ally of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., isn’t just anti-vaccine. He’s pro-infection.

It's as if they understand and accept the facts and/or expert consensus on a given topic but set policy in the opposite direction to annoy the libs.

It's not just ignorance or a lack or knowlege. It's anti-knowlegde.

The orange felon rescued a MAGA TikTok influencer/former adviser/pervert who flirts with underage girls on Instagram from the Middle East and sent him a private jet whilst thousands of American citizens remain stranded there. This should surprise no one. I hate him.

Donald Trump once opposed war and promised to remove America from foreign entanglements.

This is why he broke that promise.

A Running Count of How Many People ICE Has Killed and Injured - The American Prospect ICE is not required to report any use-of-force incidents against the public. So The American Prospect created our own running tally.

We updated our record of people immigration agents have killed or caused to die since Trump took office in January 2025.

As of today, agents have killed at least 28 people in the field and 48 people in custody.

The Indiana House and Senate have both passed a bill to completely eliminate requirements for businesses to document the employment of child workers.

If this bill becomes law it would enable employers to hide child labor violations, according to @epi.org.

So much concern and hand-wringing, all the while a significant part of the population is on unprescribed, self-administered ozempic generics. It’s never been about concern, always about control.

(Not judging individuals making that call; judging the obviously biased lines within this struggle)

β€œEpidemiological data is being used politically and selectively to create a scapegoat for routine infection rates that rise and fall…” says RFK Jr.’s BFF, Leslie Manookian.

No, Leslie. Measles was eliminated in the U.S.
