Dr. Mohammed Abu Salmiya – Director General of Al-Shifa Medical Complex, Gaza City to Seraj TV:

A tweet from Oversight Project (@ItsYourGov) shows a screenshot of an Advocate article. The tweet text says: “This is an example of an element of TIVE rhetoric coming from @Harvard Professor Alejandra Caraballo @Esqueer_in the @TheAdvocateMag. The notion that opposing Transgender Ideology is a form of violence (‘eradication’ here) leads people to justify violence.” The screenshot highlights a quote from Alejandra Caraballo criticizing a Heritage Foundation policy proposal: “They want us all eradicated.”

The Heritage Foundation is going after me this morning calling me a terrorist because I am accurately stating what they are intending to do. Michael Knowles at CPAC explicitly called for the "eradication of transgenderism."

I'll continue to speak the truth of what is being done to my community.

I think the best place to be right now is deeply worried but stopping short of going full Doomer to remember that Donald Trump has like a 34% approval rating and if you’ve already granted him God-King powers in your mind you’re falling for what he wants everyone falling for.

This essay, by an Egyptian-American former New Yorker staff fact-checker, is an incredible read

And incredibly damning

Huge recommendation

Read this right now please.

Though there are going to be some real sad days thinking about red and pink.

Light Blue. Not even a hard one.

Undercover With the New Alt-Right For 11 months, I pretended to be a far-right extremist. I discovered a radical youth movement trying to infiltrate the Republican Party.

Five years ago I went undercover and met a bunch of guys who love Hitler at Turning Point USA.

Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause By ignoring the rhetoric and actions of the Turning Point USA founder, pundits and politicians are sanitizing his legacy.

Ta-Nehasi Coates is doing a lot of things with this essay, but one of the most important is fearlessly using examples of anti-trans hate to describe Charlie Kirk's politics.

The contrast between his choices and those of other writers for major legacy outlets is revealing.

Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, UN commission of inquiry says The panel finds that four of the five genocidal acts defined under international law have been carried out against Palestinians during the war.

Will Democrats finally acknowledge it?

Their base gets it. The world gets it.

Gov. Greg Abbott pardons Daniel Perry, veteran who killed police brutality protester in 2020 A Travis County jury sentenced Perry to 25 years in prison last year, prompting Abbott to ask the state parole board to review his case.

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer.

The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial.

Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

Here's an article I wrote last year about Ryan Sanchez, who is pictured below.

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions.

Seems like a lot of them have figured it out and brought in consultants to teach them how to do it.

You're Italian and don't remember what Bella Ciao is? Do they not teach history there anymore?

Also it's apparently been co-opted by Groypers "for the lols."

You didn’t even bother editing that from ChatGPT, did you?

This is Melissa Hortman, on June 14, 2025 she and her husband Mark were murdered in a politically motived attack. She stood for environment rights, abortion rights and sensible gun control policies.

Can we please take a moment to remember her good works.

Please RT.

Yeah, how did that go for us?
