Reporter: Dr Oz said that—

Jeffries: Who? Nobody who is serious in this country takes Dr. Oz seriously… I’m not going to respond to any comments from randos like Dr. Oz who is woefully unqualified.

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: It's a bad deal. Everyday life - making it better and more affordable - must always be our bottom line. For months, I’ve been hearing from people bracing for their health insurance bills to skyrocket - so much that some will lose coverage altogether. Some say they simply haven't even opened their letter yet, dreading the bad news. Any deal that fails to address this directly is a bad deal.

FIFA head says 'you will see' at World Cup draw if Trump receives new peace prize FIFA has announced the creation of a peace prize, which it plans to award for the first time at the World Cup draw on Dec. 5 in Washington.

Trump has threatened to bomb or invade 7 countries with a shot to play in the 2026 World Cup. He *has* bombed one (Iran) and said he'd deny them visas. He's preparing for war with another (Venezuela). He has summarily executed citizens from at least 3. He has imposed tariffs on nearly all of them.

I have been trying to avoid this conclusion, as angry as this all makes me, but it's fucking undeniable at this point that in Esther Ghey's view the real tragedy of Brianna's life is that she was trans at all, which made her a target. Her advocacy smacks of railing against "social contagion".

Kim Davis.. i thought that i‘d heard the last of that name 10 years ago..

MTG seems to be saying all the right things lately. I can't decide if she's sincere & turning over a new leaf or if she's trying to tone down her rhetoric for a future gubernatorial run. Only time will tell.

You fucking people will let anyone off the hook for their violent hateful beliefs and all they have to do is say shiny words you like

You’re all a bunch of Nazi tattoo forgiving, Jewish space lasers forgetting gullible marks getting played for fools

As a Jew I suggest you all go fuck yourselves.

“Muslims shouldn’t be allowed to hold public office” is now a mainstream position on the right.

It’s terrifying and people will die even if it’s longterm good

If I was running for Congress, I would promise to appropriate money for USAID, b/c as far as I am concerned it remains an agency as no-one repealed the statute that created it in 1998. It blew my mind at the time that we were like, yep, sure, we will just close an agency without authorization.

Just horrific. These are crimes.

And let’s be clear — this is by design. They’ve been forthright about that. The aim is to make it migrants suffer so much that they give up their due process rights and leave voluntarily.

Anyway I hadn't heard anyone talking about this, so I guess I'm gonna talk about it. Spread the word if you're thinking about doing an nsfw KS project, Stripe apparently might pull your funding at literally any step of the process, with zero warning!

Looks like Kickstarter is TRYING but they know Stripe are douches

I can at least understand the argument that over the long term, these programs encourage dependency, are counterproductive, etc.

What I can’t fathom is, “We think people who were depending on getting food this month — and their children — should go hungry.”

"I'M VALID EVEN IF I NEVER ACT ON MY MOST SECRET WANTS" yes you are honey, let's get you some hot chocolate and queer community until you can work up the nerve to get through that initial period mmkay

Alarming criminalization of green card holder based on "Antifa Materials" - another attempt to silence dissent and target people critical of this administration

Release Des and the Prairieland Defendants!

I've said it once and I'll say it again. The future of people's relationship to tech is a small home server, with easily installed and maintained software that anyone could learn. The internet has to balkanize if it's to survive

Another often overlooked but important election.

Loudoun County Public Schools has been ground zero for targeting by the Trump administration over trans students, and chose to protect their students.

Pro-trans candidates Chandler and Svenson are winning, and anti-trans Munoz-Melendez is losing.

If this is all a bad-faith hunt for pretext, that’s alarming enough — but if the Trump judges are truly taking clashes between protesters and counter-protesters seriously, and using them to justify the deployment, the situation is arguably even worse. The National Guard are putatively being deployed to protect federal employees; the obvious conclusion here is that the counter-protesters and right-wing influencers now comprise a paramilitary arm of the federal government that the Trump regime believes is also entitled to protection by the National Guard. That they might possibly be cranks with fewer than 2,000 followers on TikTok is of no consequence — they now have a direct line to the Justice Department, to guns, and to boots on the ground.

I think it is very clear that the Trump regime sees the right-wing influencers on the ground in Portland as an informal arm of their government www.theverge.com/policy/81340...

Hello my beloved @birthnorpurse.bsky.social

hello. This is @absurdseagull from X and Discord. if you recognize me as a friend, let us remain friends. If you recognize me as an enemy, I’d love to meet again neutrally (though depending on who it is, apologies may be in order from me)

anyways, just thought i’d show i’m not a bot.

Two teenagers were radicalized by the transphobic political climate into seeing a 15 year old girl as less than human. They killed the girl, and then the girl's grieving mother chose to embark on a moral panic crusade against "self-harm", acquitting the actual perpetrators of her daughter's demise.

And again, a pattern of putting out statements accusing people of serious Federal crimes and then releasing them hours or days or weeks later with no charges. And no retraction.

Hack Exposes Kansas City’s Secret Police Misconduct List A major breach of the Kansas City, Kansas, Police Department reveals, for the first time, a list of alleged officer misconduct including dishonesty, sexual harassment, excessive force, and false arres...

For one of my final stories with @wired.com, I teamed up with @peggylowe.bsky.social at KCUR to dig through a Kansas City, KS police hack

Inside were some of the most disturbing misconduct files I’ve ever read—and a secret list of cops the department said couldnt be trusted

Here are a few of them:

NAACP sues Virginia officials, accusing them of disenfranchising student voters The NAACP has sued Virginia state election officials, accusing them of disenfranchising students by rejecting voter registration forms from students that do not include details like dormitory names, room numbers and campus mailbox information.

GOP-led states are blocking college students from registering to vote with campus addresses.

In the context of broader attacks on vote-by-mail and early voting, these efforts will systematically disenfranchise young people across the US.

Crazy how much some media has normalized the idea that voters are taking a risk if they elect governors/mayors who will defy Trump. That he’ll threaten their funding, etc.

Try to imagine, say. Greg Abbott being asked if he’s worried that Biden will punish Texas over his lawsuits.

I'll add to this, that while they often get left out, this very much applies to Native American tribes. There's hundreds of them and they're all forced to fit a narrow narrative that implies their full assimilation or death, and culture reduced to trinkets, which is all untrue.

We have officially dispersed $150 to aid an unhoused woman in our community keep her things from being auctioned & are in the process of voting $300 for a comrade in a medical related housing emergency. (1/3)

Again, just continually pointing out that Judge Immergut was one of the core villains of the Green Scare who aggressively prosecuted and terrorized the anarchist movement.

She may not be a "set the republic on fire" level fascist, but she's not a hero.

Appreciate this coverage but it is hard to explain to people not in the Chicago area that THESE ARE NOT PROTESTS.

This is people coming out of their homes, doing anything in their power to try to stop their neighbors from being kidnapped.

It is coming for your city next, please be prepared.
