As a physician, I know conversion therapy is dangerous and goes against everything we stand for in healthcare. It's abusive and not grounded in science.

100%
For people without X accounts. I finally found a way to read the stroke theory and honestly, it's delicious. nitter.poast.org/adamscochran...
To be fair, not all of them are cowards. A bunch of them support everything that's being done.
That's incredible.
Oh, no!😥
Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.
2 September 1895 | A Polish woman, Aniela Kolano, was born in Święcice. In #Auschwitz from 1 July 1942. No. 8148 She perished in the camp on 7 October 1942.
This is 100% a hate crime.
I’m sorry, WHAT?
If you enjoy… Weekends Safe working conditions Retirement benefits Paid vacations Breaks at work Sick leave Paid holidays … then you’re part of the labor movement. Happy Labor Day.
There's a 0% chance that story was legit.
I'm surprised they haven't already. I would imagine they'll make a push to at least restrict it between now and next year's midterms.
People in my deep red area will follow a Republican til their deaths. They truly believe that Republicans are better for the economy, veterans, and the working class. I can't get through to them. It's like it is in their blood.
The issue of Missing and Murdered Indigenous people, especially women, is one that continues to get less action than it demands. Both here, from Alaska to other states, and in Canada. And feckess Murkowski is again, feckless. If these were white women... www.propublica.org/article/alas...
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.

It's what they deserve.

What kind of shit human do you have to be to be an ICE or HSA agent at this point?
California stepping up.
Tulsi Gabbard is *very obviously* a foreign intelligence asset and I hope we all live long enough to see her tried and convicted for it.
Bravo!
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
Came here to point this out.
It was by design.
How much evidence will it take before current and former military admit that he thinks they're expendable?
Sure do. Pics all over of her "needing assistance" getting into a vehicle for days. We got more criticism when President Biden, after he was out of office (yet still providing updates), received his cancer diagnosis.
Where are all the "save the children" Christians right now?
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.
31 August 1926 | A Polish Jew, Dawid Wiśnia, was born in Sochaczew. Deported to Auschwitz in December 1942 from the ghetto in Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki No. 83526 In 1944, he escaped from a transport to Dachau, joined the US Army & later emigrated to the US. He became a cantor. He passed away in 2021.
An(other) actual psychopath.
Holy hell. The so called American hero Sheriff from the Walking Tall movies and shows murdered his wife.
Melissa Etheridge should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
HAMILTON COUNTY: “@hamcoschools learned of a student suicide a week before the board voted 6-5 to end the federally funded in-school therapy…” Republicans axed the Centerstone contract because they helped 🏳️🌈 kids. Ugly stuff. Hate over kids’ safety. www.timesfreepress.com/news/2025/au...
Life for Palestinians in Gaza has gotten worse under Trump, not better. So where are Jill Stein and Cornel West now? They aren’t leading protests in DC outside the White House, no rallies. Almost like the whole 2024 thing was just performative.
Idk if this is real. Even if it isn't, he'll land firmly on his feet. And I'll watch.
Even firefighters aren't safe.
Whether or not he wrote it, I still find it crazy that things like this are real.
Appreciative in Pennsylvania.
CHICAGO…
People have rewritten it in their minds. Some of it is a coping mechanism, I'm sure. But we are a selfish society. Too many people aren't willing to sacrifice their precious social lives and only remember they were being asked to make adjustments to their lives in order to keep others safe.
30 August 1899 | A German Jewish woman, Bella Spanier, was born in Aschaffenburg. An actress. In May 1943 she was incarcerated in Theresienstadt ghetto from where on 12 October 1944 she was deported to #Auschwitz. She did not survive.
NEW: Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed into law a new, deeply gerrymandered congressional map that disenfranchises voters of color for political gain. All voters deserve to be heard. This is an affront to our democracy.
Huge news - appeals court rules that a majority of the President’s tariffs are illegal. The President is wreaking havoc on our economy, and he is breaking the law to do it. We must right this ship. We need sane trade policy again.
i really think jd vance is the fakest politician i've seen in my lifetime. there is nothing sincere about him.
A huge fuck you to everyone who told us we were "overreacting"!
Missouri “Representative” Ann Wagner posted this and quickly deleted it. Luckily my friend found it for her! We won’t forget. Ann wants to pick her voters.
“Give your kids an extra hug and kiss today.” Jesse Merkel spoke at a news conference outside Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, where his 8-year-old son, Fletcher, was one of two children fatally shot at a back-to-school Mass on Wednesday. Read more: nyti.ms/45HBSKN
Getting ready to see Jaws in a theater for the 1st time. I was in my mom's belly when it was released. We both turned 50 this year. 1975 was the shit.
Mosques, temples, and synagogues. This is an obviously incomplete list. Flood them with non-Christian applicants.

absurd.
Nearly 1,400 people died after Hurricane Katrina crashed into Louisiana and Mississippi. Most of the deaths were in New Orleans, which has had an uneven recovery in the past 20 years.
Not even a little bit.
Powerful words from this young person.
“Do not offer thoughts and prayers as you systemically enable such tragedies. Do not claim prayers are sufficient when children die as they pray. Do not pretend you do not understand.” — Lydia, 16, Minneapolis
hard to campaign to a bunch of people you told you couldn't help because we're all going to die anyway.
I’m not crying You are crying 😭 😭😭😭😭🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
29 August 1929 | A Polish Jew, Michel Adler, was born in Radom. He emigrated to France. In August 1942 he was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.
If this oleaginous haircut thinks local crime rates merit a federal military intervention, then he should be leading the armored column down to his home state of Louisiana, which is one of the worst in the nation.
Life under occupation.. Where are those pro Hamas protesters that used showed up at all the VP Harris & Biden events? They are protesting for a country 10k miles away but none have to protest inside the Capitol of the nation that they say is spending gEnoCiDe
Candon Dean Dahle got 180 DAYS in jail for r*ping a little girl for 5 years, from age 7 to 12. Again, 180 days, 6 months in TOTAL for r*ping a child for 5 years.
Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"
Spot on. Jr sold his services out in the open. Harris was going to win without him (and the muskrat) signing on to help the felon.
It's because he's superhuman.
I'm sorry. But, WHAT THE FUCK?!
Congrats to Catelin Drey on winning Iowa's State Senate District 1 special election! Let's fucking go! 🙌💪👏👊👇
Jeanine Pirro did everything she could to indict the sandwich guy-who is apparently a veteran-and failed Meanwhile the administration is giving Ashli Babbitt a funeral with military honors So if you're MAGA and you assault a police officer *for Trump* You don't get prosecuted You get celebrated
This child's mother never saw justice for her son.
I will. My step-brother was the pastor of the church my dad went to. Told them they didn't need to stop gathering. Didn't encourage them to be responsible or even cautious. I have a friend who went there for a short time years prior. He told me the sermons were hella political.
It would be a good use for some of that defense budget.
My dad was one of them. He believed he didn't need it. I mean, God was gonna protect him, so why would he have needed such a thing?
One thing that really hits you when you're directly affected by gun violence in schools is that there's nowhere to hide. Public, private, religious, whatever - unless you're going to homeschool your kids, we live in a world where they're at risk of something like this happening.
It shouldn't be up to American children to save each other from getting shot. It's the job of American adults to stop shootings from happening in the first place. Ban assault weapons again now.
We’re so fvcked
28 August 1887 | German Jewish woman, Nanny Gutterman (nee Wangenheim), was born in Berlin. She emigrated to Belgium. She was deported to #Auschwitz from Kazerne Dossin in Mechelen on 19 May 1944. She was murdered in a gas chamber after the arrival selection.
This.
The GOP is preparing to change Senate rules to make it easier to adopt Trump’s agenda and confirm nominees. Good thing Manchin and Sinema “preserved democracy” with their performative bullshit. Dems have to quit holding themselves to standards the GOP won’t meet.
Not only did I get to see the Red Sox win last night. It was also Bark at the Park. So many dogs. It was awesome.
We can't allow ourselves to become numb to mass shootings. What happened today in Minneapolis is heartbreaking, and Michelle and I are praying for the parents who have lost a child or will be sitting at their hospital bedside after yet another act of unspeakable, unnecessary violence.
Wow. That orange menace and I finally agree on something.
I had a salad for dinner. You?
So, I guess Cracker Barrel changed its logo back to the cracker leaning on a barrel? We live in the dumbest of times when a company changing their logo matters this much to people. I guarantee most of the nitwits who lost their shit never knew said cracker's name before this.
I’m not a huge Taylor fan, but my girls are. I saw that Charlie Kirk responded to her engagement to Travis Kelce by telling her to submit and be a good wife. She’s a billionaire. Travis is not. That tells you all you need to know. As a woman, you can never achieve enough success for them…
HUGE FLIP: Democrat Catelin Drey wins deep-red state Senate seat in Iowa, breaking the GOP's supermajority. Drey won by 11 points in a district Donald Trump carried by 11 points last year. It's another massive overperformance. The Iowa GOP should be very worried for the midterms. Our full writeup:
Who did this?
And that he's only 40.
Governors Moore, Pritzker, Hochul, Walz, & Newsom are getting media attention (still not enough) for calling a spade a spade when it comes to Republican overreach & law breaking. Here are some other Democratic electeds who are doing the same with too few noticing it 🧵:
This doesn't sound like freedom. Where are my #2A bros at? This is the moment you've warned me about for decades, my dudes.
It’s becoming clearer: the real fight against Trump isn’t going to come from party leadership in DC; it’s going to come from blue state governors.
Isn't this the dude who faced impeachment for breaking the law? Of course, he's the one directing people to break the law.
My current favorite bit of right-wing Christian hypocrisy is Ken Paxton, a man whose wife is divorcing him for adultery, forcing Texas schools to unconstitutionally post "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery." www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...
In the year of our lord 2025, my own brother can't even send me a Christmas present by mail. Clearly, the founding fathers were trying to safeguard us from care packages from abroad.
The prolonged public torturing of a single man because the state cannot admit to its errors is not something that occurs in a free country
Is she out of her mind?
He hasn't ever cared about any of what he claims to care about. It's all pandering. He doesn't stand for anything but what benefits him. Faux patriot outrage keeps people on his side.
