This is going to be a long thread, but here is a quick summary of what I'm diving into:

In 2014, 25-year-old Erika Kirk (then Erika Frantzve) was publicly engaging with a 15-year-old girl named Jillian on social media, aparently spending a lot of time together, and Erika sent Jillian chocolates (🧵)

For non-NYers: The Stonewall Monument--which was only made national in '16, which is what allowed Trump to have the flag removed--is tiny. It's less than 1% the size of Central Park, and a reminder that LGBTQ+ people have always had to fight for every square foot, every iota of progress and respect.

N.Y.C. Officials Reinstate Pride Flag at Stonewall After Federal Removal

This is the way. When they come at us, we come back at them twofold. Raise that Pride flag every time they take it down. If they prevent that, surround the park with Pride flags. Ruin their petty little lives until they shit rainbows. Never stop. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/n...

Republicans want us dead.

“Forbes licking the taint of despicable rich guys”

There, fixed the headline for you.

Azune’s prologue was heartbreaking last night! 💔 Well done @luiscarazo.bsky.social and @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social !

Quick note: About how when tech bros apply the morale from SciFi stories in a way that we find wrong, it's not cause they didn't read the book. It's cause they identify with other characters than you are.

Ancient Roman altars to go on display in Edinburgh Two Mithraic Roman altars are to be displayed as a part of an upcoming exhibition after being acquired for the nation.

Delighted to hear these altars are now on display! I was privileged to do the pigment analyses of these objects. They were once quite brightly painted #romanpainting #pigments

Senate Democrats Block DHS Measure as Funding Deadline Approaches Lawmakers say they remain far apart on deal on Homeland Security to put new restrictions on immigration enforcement

NEW: Senate Democrats REJECT funding for DHS, which will lead to shutdown of the agency. Keep in mind, ICE and CBP are still funded by supplemental money in the BBB, but it's harder to spend and will deplete those funds. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Palantir for California Governor? The Broligarchy Is Buying Democrats!

Palantir is spending millions buying Democratic and Republican politicians as it continues to make billions of dollars by gobbling up our data, helping ICE, and creating a surveillance state.

Shameful stuff

‘No Reason He Should Have Died’: Alex Pretti’s Parents Open Up

Alex Pretti's parents keep a box crammed with 200 letters and cards that have poured into their Denver home since their son was shot and killed by immigration agents.

"He's my first born," Susan Pretti said. "He's the one that made me a mother. There was no reason he should have died that day."

Republicans. Are. Monsters.

Republicans. Are. Monsters.

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October 😬), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.

Republicans. Are. Monsters.

Way-hey! After concerted local pushback, New Jersey company decides not to contract with ICE:

"The contract with ICE will not move forward, a Holman spokesperson told Patch.

"I have been informed that we declined that particular body of work," the spokesperson said...

CNN confirms what MSNBC reported live a few hours ago: DOJ is surveilling Dem lawmakers when they go to the DOJ to search unredacted Epstein files.

This picture perfectly encapsulates this administrations willful ignorance and disdain for anything slightly resembling human decency.

Trump tried to weaponize our justice system to go after my colleagues' most fundamental right — free speech — all because he didn’t like what they said. The President is trying to silence Americans who speak up and speak out. I won't be intimidated, and neither should you.

Republicans. Are. Monsters.

The Hill: Gallup will no longer measure presidential approval after 88 years by Dominick Mastrangelo - 02/11/26 10:38 AM ET

Politico: Gallup retreats from political polling , again under new leadership Gallup will announce friday that it plans to measure President Donald Trump's job approval rating only on a monthly basis. 12/21/2018

If you saw today's headline that Gallup will stop measuring presidential approval, they did the same thing in 2018. They do it whenever Trump is president.

Is it true that Gallup plans to stop tracking approval ratings of political figures? Why? That's a terrible idea. It’s crucial for citizens in a democracy to have the ability to voice their opinions of the leaders they’ve elected and make those opinions known. As a longtime Gallup pollster, I’m ashamed that you’d even consider cutting off this important marker of American political feeling. Please reconsider. Thank you!

I'm a Gallup pollster. You can contact them at galluppanel@gallupmail.com to let them know what you think of this.

ICE wants to cover their faces and prevent people from recording what they are doing. In no way should we allow the right to normalize the behaviors of a fascist police state,
