a trans girl in college committed suicide days ago amid discrimination against her easily tied to this administration’s policies. npr and other media should cover that too

I know this reinforces a narrative about condescending leftists calling all conservatives bigots but I'm sorry, every form of data — anecdotes, polling and public statements by conservatives — indicate that these are the main drivers.

It's a doomed quest to keep looking for good underneath evil.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

This is clear political prosecution and government overreach meant to scare protestors by going after resistance leaders and political candidates.

Kat Abughazaleh must not be imprisoned for fighting against the President’s fascism.

The actual finding here is that a huge percentage of the population believes things that are not true. Democrats objectively did not spend significant time on climate change or LGBTQ issues in the last election campaign.

It's funny how those poll-testing grifters ignore a slew of '24 polls showing that voters were skeptical of politicians attacking trans people to score partisan points. They suggest Dems didn't talk enough about trans people in a way that might have reframed the issue away from the RW moral panic.

“Hey. I’m the actual Zohran Mamdani. Not the guy they talk about on this channel.”

Zohran runs an ad on Fox News to undercut their endless unhinged fearmongering and greed-fueled racism.

The lady at the charity shop today told me that she wishes people would clear out their children's old toys in the lead up to Christmas rather than after because she always sees a number of parents in the days before Christmas looking for toys for their little ones who might be strapped for cash. She said there's very rarely anything in just before, but that they get inundated with toys in the days after. And it really made me think about it in a way I never would have before. If you know your child is going to get lots of presents from father Christmas this year, by clearing out your cupboards a few days early you could make another child's Christmas a lot more special too. Saw this & thought I'd repost

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

Illinois Army captain says Dems are ‘rolling over’ on LGBTQ+ rights. He’s running for Congress to change that “What’s happening right now to trans people — to the LGBTQ+ community — is not okay. Somebody needs to stand up," Dylan Blaha told The Advocate.

“When you start asking if it’s worth standing up for trans people, you’ve already lost the moral argument,” Democrat Dylan Blaha told me in an interview about why he’s challenging an Illinois congresswoman from the left.

we simply do not talk enough about how much of modern capitalism has pivoted away from providing goods and services in exchange for money and into inconveniencing and harassing people with fees, surcharges, and delayed invoicing for long enough that they give you money just to make it stop

The ‘Anti-Woke’ Tax That All Americans Are Paying Better broke than woke, right?

great piece from @adamserwer.bsky.social on the “anti-woke” tax that americans now pay as a result of conservative identity politics run amok.

When Clive Barker was working on the MUMMY remake for Universal in the early '90s, he had a trans character in the script, and when the studio vetoed it, he basically said "I really can't stress how much I don't need to fucking make THE MUMMY" and left.

It is wild to be so evil that the entire Supreme Court, unanimously, tells you to knock it off when the Supreme Court has the number 4 and 5 most evil people on earth on it

Countries Should Accept Transgender Refugees From The United States The situation on the ground for transgender people is deteriorating in real time in the United States. Other countries should open up refugee programs to allow those moving from the US.

It's honestly disgusting how blatant and shameless this inversion of reality is. In the rare case that a parent is supportive of their trans child, it is to be labeled as abuse, while attempted conversion therapy and denial of bodily autonomy to trans children is to be a normalized form of torture.

A Truly Patriotic Education Tells Many Stories Trump’s executive orders can’t define diversity out of history.

"My child is trans (and has asked me to write about this). One of the histories U.S. President Donald Trump is trying to purge is his: a history, a society, with a space for a trans boy to live openly, to feel included and respected for who he is." #TDOV My first for @foreignpolicy.com.

That JB Pritzker sounds relevatory reflects how far a whole generation of Democratic politicians strayed from the absolute basics of electoral politics: say what you mean, act like you sincerely like your constituents, and don't constantly bring up how much you like and agree with your opponents.

remember what i said before about physical control of buildings often being a decisive factor in the outcome of a coup?

the law didn't matter here because the cost of enforcing it once the criminals seized the building was too high, so the judge just says its okay for the criminals to keep it.

This is the way.

I want people to watch this video and honestly tell me why it should be made *illegal* for this 14-year-old girl to play field hockey with her friends. youtu.be/yf9MfYZ-Bl4?...
