1. Last week, a proposed trans gun ban was first reported by the Daily Wire then subsequently confirmed. Reportedly, one DOJ source used an anti-trans slur when discussing it, saying "Tr***ies shouldn't have guns." The NRA/gun rights orgs have now opposed. Subscribe to support our journalism.
@leahlitman.bsky.social said it best: “Political culture imagines that the Supreme Court safeguards the Constitution, when in reality it is chipping away at the constitutional rights of historically marginalized groups."
PSA: Please remember to wear a well-fitting mask when you’re at the pharmacy getting vaccinated (or are there for any other reason). I really appreciate anyone taking a step to protect themselves by getting vaccinated, but you put yourself at unnecessary risk if you don’t wear a mask while doing so.
Domination is about values and respect. Here is a quote that I think is crucial in our days. "A politician thinks of the next election; a statesman, of the next generation." It was written in 1870.
oh my god a year ago, almost to the day, I made a post about this and today, it's right in front of me at MOMA
Billie Holiday's "Strange Fruit" is an iconic protest song condemning lynching in the American South. First recorded in 1939, its vivid lyrics use "fruit hanging from the poplar trees" to represent African Americans murdered by racial violence.
Please teach your children manners around dogs. Rushing animals and grabbing them is how tragic accidents happen. And while it’s not a dog or child’s fault, it is something that we as caretakers need to work to prevent.
Cis people, broadly, flatly refuse to understand the true horrors of gender dysphoria because it scares them and is too painful to think about. So instead they pretend trans people aren't real.
This was published *immediately* after she ruled that racial profiling was good, actually
Given the Supreme Court ruling I think it's even more important that we refer to what is happening in Los Angeles and elsewhere with ICE as ethnic cleansing. The US government is engaged in a violent campaign of ethnic cleansing that has already cost at least two lives.
#SCOTUS all-but overruled a unanimous, 90-year-old precedent through an unexplained "administrative" stay this morning, and that's only the second-most-problematic thing it did before lunchtime.
It's not the most important part of the issue but Kavanaugh saying "well they should just sue if they're the victims of excessive force from ICE" when he himself has previously voted to bar lawsuits against federal officers for violations of the 4th Amendment in immigration cases takes chutzpah.
That says it all!
Funny how "I stole it because it was my only option" is permissible for AI pushers but not for people starving to death stealing food. No war but class war.
While speaking at the Museum of the Bible, Trump claimed that domestic violence is inflating DC's crime stats. Dawn Dalton, director of the DC Coalition Against Domestic Violence, told us: “We don’t agree with what the president is saying.”

🚨REPORT: A new investigation shows Meta buried evidence that kids weren’t safe in its “Metaverse.” If this was their M.O. for virtual reality, why should we trust their chatbots?
This is what cowardice looks like.
“As long as we have these hollow shells of civic institutions then we’re technically a democracy,” is going to be something we have to continually stop people from retreating into.
It bothers me people are dunking on Kavanaugh for being dumb about the 4th Amendment when the dude is just being straight-up evil. He has clerks and doubtless sketchy Wormtongue advisors from Heritage and all the resources of the highest court. Not dumb. Evil.

Hey as a trans policy organizer for the past 5 years, it really is interesting how cis commentators see "trans people banned from gun ownership" as a five alarm fire of fascism, but didn't raise even the slightest alarm as 26 states banned healthcare proven to prevent child suicides. It isn't slick
Who is going to be the first American to petition for asylum in North Korea
What is NOT being reported in this viral story is that the woman in question is a registered Republican. And she is definitely going to serve time. And again, the idea that non-citizens are registering and voting en masse, risking deportation and jail, is insane. www.ocregister.com/2025/09/06/a...
He brought Kennedy on board to debase the family. Same reason he paved over Jackie’s Rose Garden and gutted the Kennedy Center. RFK Jr goes along because he and former his law firm stand to make millions from suing over vaccines.
Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years. Meanwhile, the six largest health insurers raked in more than $31 billion in net income last year. Still not sure if we need Medicare for All?

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has received the Epstein estate files. The materials could include the so-called birthday book.

Just sitting back, eating some popcorn, watching people attempt to make the Supreme Court’s decision that racial profiling is ok for the purpose of ethnic cleansing about something else that makes them feel more comfortable.
History rhymes, and we can learn from the cadence.
can't come up with words to describe how irresponsible and absurd this is.
Russia is pushing for war against Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania because they believe that NATO will back down and that Article 5 is all talk. They also believe that they can obtain an easier military victory that they can use to deflect from their failure in Ukraine.
What's next? From today: "Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent."
Remember when Trump said the birthday card he signed and sent to Epstein “doesn’t exist”? Anyway, here it is:
It’s remarkable how many people believe Congress is weak and the President omnipotent. Congress isn’t powerless — it’s paralyzed by cowardice. Its authority is vast, if only it dared to act.

BREAKING: SCOTUS lifts restrictions on L.A. immigration stops
Terrorist attacks keep happening in Israel coincidently right before key dates of Netanyahu's corruption trial. The trial has been delayed repeatdly due to Hamas somehow matching their terror calendars with Netanyahu's legal calendar.
(NYT) - A federal appeals court on Monday upheld a $83.3 million jury award against President Trump for defaming the writer E. Jean Carroll in 2019, after she accused him of a decades-old rape in a Manhattan department store — an attack for which he was separately found liable of sexual abuse.
I do not think RFK jr could ever receive any justice equivalent to the harm he has caused. We'd need one of those nonchristian hells where there are like 50 hells or something.
A teen told Meta researchers his brother, then under 10, had been sexually propositioned through Meta's VR headsets multiple times. Their boss told them to delete the evidence, they said. That's one example in our new investigation about Meta's crack down on internal research.
Europe’s greatest weakness will always be its arrogance; when Hitler took France, the French were a significantly stronger fighting force and were crushed; when Ukraine first fought back everyone believed Russia would crush them in days; wars don’t always go as expected, always be vigilant.
"If you really want to restore faith in the judiciary, stop lifting injunctions against this administration without explanation."

During this week’s raid at the Hyundai plant in Georgia, women managed to hide in the ceiling for over six hours.
The American people ask a simple question: In the richest, most powerful nation in history, what corrupt special interests—foreign or domestic—have such a stranglehold on our government to prevent the full release of the Epstein files?
i don't think the vice president gets a pass on murdering people because of emotional trauma
We're in a war.

Because a transfem friend was harassed at a gas station in Texas over the weekend by a security guard who told her that she had to use the men's bathroom now, a reminder that 1) Texas Senate Bill 8 has not gone into effect yet and 2) It does not apply to private businesses
Civil servants need to realize they’re civil ‘servants’, not authoritarian bosses
Sounds like something an abuser of women would say
Here's a scenario that someone should ask RFK Jr. about: an under-65 person with no major health conditions who is providing some in-person support for an older family member undergoing treatments that weaken the immune system. Can that person get a COVID shot? It's me, and I can't.
RFK Jr. should’ve never been confirmed, & he’s proven that every day since. Children are literally dying from measles because of his lies & reckless anti-vax agenda. He is a threat to our health & our democracy. Public office has no place for deadly, deranged delusion. It’s time for him to resign.
If, 5 years from now, we are looking back under autocratic rule, thinking about when exactly democracy died in America, the president building a paramilitary goon squad to enforce a domestic political agenda will be top of the list. What do you want to have stood for when authoritarians took over?
Release ALL the Epstein files!

The Supreme Court just ruled that ICE can target people based on their race. Can we get a “Fuck ICE” in the chat?
So the Americans in a home decor group of which I am a member are totes losing their shit because the price of a specific IKEA dining table shot up $400 overnight and I’m like “friends it’s the tariffs” and they’re like “can’t be cuz he said China would pay tariffs, not us!” Holy Zeus 🙄 1/
Sotomayor wrote, “Countless people in the Los Angeles area have been grabbed, thrown to the ground, & handcuffed simply because of their looks, their accents, and the fact they make a living by doing manual labor. Today, the Court needlessly subjects countless more to these exact same indignities."

Sure seems that way. 😕 🇺🇸
This is 100% going to be used to put ICE agents outside polling stations in areas where they want to suppress the vote.

The South Korean workers in the Georgia Hyundai plant raid were visiting specialists for Hyundai, not construction workers or factory workers displacing jobs. Now, the plant won't get finished, and Georgia is losing out on thousands of jobs for people who would have been employed there.
