Btw, Kat was warning everybody about rightwing Dem donors calling LGBTQ and non-white Americans "The Groups" — and using that term to start throwing marginalized people under the bus — THREE (3!) months ago! This was before she was running. It is crazy how prescient this is.
Hundreds of people have gathered at the local Jewish Community Center for a vigil to support the victims of the firebombing attack in Boulder.
NEW: The Trump administration has obeyed a court order to return a Guatemalan man improperly deported to Mexico in Feburary. His lawyer says he's en route to a detention facility in Arizona. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...
The Secretary of Education doesn’t know American history. That’s not failure—it’s strategy. They erased the past so they can control the future. 📕 Erased exposes who’s behind it—and why it works. Read it before they wipe the rest out too: stan.store/gxldsociety/...
Ugh, he just gets better. 😩
I still think this is one of the most gutting notes I’ve ever read.
Cuomo says NYC defunded the police, a thing that literally never happened.
It is amazing how many Dems insist that Dems have done things they absolutely never did, but which Republicans insisted they did.
Never.
Thank you, Nick, for standing up for the LGBTQ+ community.
It’s the pineapple.
It’s like Israeli Fox Nation. My favorite is the article criticizing the chief rabbi of South Africa for calling a genocide a genocide.
They have blogs? Well, I’m off to take a look.
WATCH: “You stand in my church. You promised me.” A Minneapolis pastor confronts the chief of police about helping ICE
I never get tired of watching amoral assholes pander to the Right and still get fucked over by them www.nytimes.com/2025/06/03/u...
Lmao.
It's really good they decided to bend the knee to the fascist Trump administration. Maybe they can try changing their name back to King's College, or King Trump University?
Not surprising that a Republican white nationalist in 2025 doesn't know who Ruby Bridges is.
The Secretary of Education doesn’t appear to know of Ruby Bridges, a key figure in the history of American school desegregation efforts
NEW: ICE updated its policy for "enforcement actions" in and near courthouses, removing a provision directing officers to ensure they weren't violating state or local laws. @dmehro.bsky.social and @dell.bsky.social have the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-qu...
🚨WOW. It turns out that a "Tren de Aragua gathering" the Trump admin said it broke up in March ... was just a BIRTHDAY PARTY. None of the people arrested at the party seem to have any criminal record — and none have been charged criminally in the months since it happened. Read the story below.

They're literally doing the meme
BREAKING: Chief Judge James Boasberg finds that those people sent to CECOT under the Alien Enemies Act on March 15-16 had their due process rights violates and certifies them as a class. He orders that the government "facilitate" the ability for them to seek habeas relief.

Eat shit, Nazi scum. You're an antisemitic, bigoted asshole. You compared yourself jokingly to George Santos, even though you're almost as full of shit as he is. bsky.app/profile/hami...
Ritchie Torres crying and screaming in a corner....unlike Torres, Delgado actually has a Jewish family and DOESNT CLAIM TO SPEAK FOR US
lol the centrism conference is going great. "former" republican josh barro trying to pin down dem electeds on a "unions are bad" message
Speakers at WelcomePAC have mentioned being dunked on by BlueSky posters no less than a dozen times in the first hour alone. This site has broken their brains
“The Holocaust is a hoax” is a diverse viewpoint but “Israel’s actions against Gaza are bad” is terrorism
Nah, launch him into the sun.
AsshatFest
I watched large portions of this segment and at one point @mattyglesias.bsky.social threw up this slide, said Dems are "making bad press on this issue" and moved on. But the polling is wildly on Dem's side on this one! Opponents of what the Trump admin is doing with him outnumber supporters 2-1!
These consultants are literally just calling minorities and gay people "bad groups" now. If you don't understand this comes down to "let's crank up the racism dial" I simply don't know what to tell you.
this story is just a great illustration of NIMBY nihilism. at core, these people have no vision for anything. they simply oppose change for the sake of opposition. (i also think there is an element of death denial here — if i can prevent all physical changes i can deny the reality of my mortality)
Republicans have always been partial to Nazis and holocaust deniers.
Ah. So, all the attacks on Harvard are supposedly about stopping antisemitism on campus... but they need to hire a holocaust denier in the name of "diversity of viewpoints." Got it.
The Florida Board of Governors has voted against the confirmation of Dr. Santa Ono as the University of Florida's next president
UPDATED: Ono spent much of the meeting dodging direct answers. When pressed on Covid mandates — with the questioner pointing out that as an immunologist, he must have an opinion — he answered: “I’m a mouse doctor. I’m a test tube kind of guy.” www.chronicle.com/article/stat...
There’s an elegant morality tale in all of this. Something something model minorities something something scorpions and crocodiles something something
The New York Times has been misleading readers about the state of youth gender medicine and the evidence behind it for years now. Tomorrow they're releasing a podcast on the topic and there's no reason to believe it will be any better than their previous work.
1/ New in the Abrego Garcia case, the Judge has just granted his lawyers' request for permission to file sanctions against the government, which is very unusual.
NEW: In the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, Judge Xinis grants the plaintiff’s request to file a motion for sanctions. Motion due June 11.
VAN HOLLEN: I'm simply asking you to provide the committee with a reorganization plan, and your response is 'maybe yes, maybe no.' Am I getting that right? LUTNICK: We're going to follow the law VAN HOLLEN: The law requires to you to submit these major changes to the Senate
centrist: we need to focus on popular policy me: holy shit! you mean we’re finally going to support universal healthcare? centrist: no haha not that policy me: ok so…gun control? centrist: no lol not that policy either me: ok which policy? centrist: oh you know the ones
This guy is terrible, he did a terrible thing, I'm Jewish and there's no question in my mind that it was a hate crime. ICE is not the right agency to be involved and normalizing the use of ICE for this type of law enforcement task is terrifying. ICE is terrible and we should get rid of it.
He’s a white nationalist and always has been. God, your political coverage sucks!
i am simply floored to learn this about a guy who held a nazi rally at madison square garden eight months ago
Jonathan Joss' lifelong friend Robert Rios confirms that he had been the victim of a homophobic attack (and that it had been ongoing) despite the San Antonio police stating there's no evidence of a hate crime
If they are not wearing masks they are impersonating other people.
a refusal that was on wild display in NYC today: hellgatenyc.com/unsettled-an...
thus has been escalating for years now at the federal, state and local levels. covering badges, refusing to provide names, procedural and legislative obstructions to FOIA requests. they don’t want you to know who they are.
They tried lie about an ICE presence. MPD assisted with closing off the area. This is completely wrong.
jesus christ
i love this guy for his relentlessness
"At about 15 minutes past the hour every hour all afternoon, teams of agents, many of them masked, left the building escorting four people, each in handcuffs, into parked SUVs that then quickly zipped across the street to the garage of 26 Federal Plaza, where ICE has its local field office."

REED: We have this crisis in education and literacy, what we're gonna do is pull back and let the states do it McMAHON: No. We'll spend it more responsibly REED: I doubt it very seriously McMAHON: Let's hope we do REED: Hope is not a plan
HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents
Surprised you haven’t suggested testing fent on trans people.
NEW: The Republican National Committee filed a motion Tuesday to intervene in ongoing federal litigation against President Donald Trump’s executive order on voting, which aimed to restrict voter access nationally under the guise of election integrity. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Do you not realize that this Onion article is about your employer’s coverage of trans people? What you’ve done is not journalism and you should hang your head in shame. In this case, you’re the bad guy. theonion.com/it-is-journa...
You work for the New York Times and you have the gall go trot out bad faith? Everything your paper has done on trans people in the past decade has been in bad faith. Ffs, this Onion article is about your employer. How do you not know that? theonion.com/it-is-journa...
This is really chilling. It's not clear that the Boulder suspect's family did anything illegal or that they were even residing in the U.S. illegally. If that were the case, then the Trump administration is lawlessly arresting whoever it wants, whenever it wants.
Day 11 of this being the last thing the Pod Save America guy wrote on Bluesky
One of this regime's judicial nominees wrote 15 years ago that literacy tests should be required to vote. This has been found 1000% unconstitutional multiple times since it was banned in 1965. It's pure Jim Crow.
Want to say if any academic identified with the left who was even 1/4th as influential as Yarvin is said something as offensive as “put the church Blacks in charge of the ghetto Blacks,” it would lead the coverage and call for a round of soul-searching for everyone left of center.
It's not enough that we as a world have evidently decided genocide is okay now. Now, platforms like Bluesky insist the victims perish in silence so our lives can go on unimpeded by the pictures of suffering we make possible. It is dystopian in the extreme.
gun groups: Supreme Court can you hear out our argument that there's a constitutional right to AR-15s Thomas, Alito, & Gorsuch: don't gotta tell me twice Everyone Else: ..no.. Kavanaugh: ..yea, no..t now Everyone Else: 🤨 Kavanaugh: ..no yea I said no..t yet ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/kavan...
if you wanna have an aneurysm may i suggest re-reading op-eds in mainstream outlets written in the wake of charlottesville in 2017 - the false equivalency drawn between nazis & antifa was egregious then, but holy fuck is it egregious to read now
All I see is armed terrorists.
ICE goons roleplaying Call of Duty while in front of a Mexican restaurant with a sign that says “Make Tacos not Walls”, as if the symbolism could get more on the nose
BREAKING: The New York Knicks have fired coach Tom Thibodeau, a league source confirmed to The Athletic.
One of the many reasons to dislike Curtis Yarvin is that if you mentioned him the most socially and emotionally spavined subnormals will lumber up to WELL ACTUALLY you about him and demand whether you have read ALL of his work.
Ah, there’s Dolan’s Knicks! Thought we lost ‘em.
Let Dolan’s coke spoon coach the team.
Firing Thibodeau seems like an overreaction. And who do you replace him with?
Cuomo just went on Bari Weiss's podcast and said NYC is a crime-ridden hellscape that needs saving.
There's a marauding gang of masked men terrorizing our neighbors and they're threatening to jail the parents of trans kids. The fight back against it is comically flaccid and useless. It's not brand building, it's what I actually believe. I'm allowed to believe better things are possible.

On Sunday, my friend, Jonathan Joss was murdered and it took me a minute to find the words... Like so many of our lives, Jonathan's existed at the powerful intersections of Indigeneity, queerness, visibility, and vulnerability. He was fierce, funny, flawed, and real in every way that mattered.
BREAKING: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka sues New Jersey's top federal prosecutor after being arrested at an immigration detention facility.
i'm not even singling out catturd here. there is this collective amnesia where the entire country has forgotten that all in the family was woke.
This human sack of dicks—Robert Doar is his name—was openly contemptuous of speaking there. He spoke without notes, and not in a good way, except when he grabbed his notes and muttered "I talked about that...OK...yeah...I said that..." He clearly thought this was all beneath him.
Things really went off the rails during the Q&A. The very first questioner asked him if he'd ever actually talked to people receiving public benefits, and the guy's answer was that, no, but Giuliani and Bloomberg had implemented benefits reforms as mayor, and they'd both been reelected...so.
Today I saw the executive director of the American Enterprise Institute attempt to address a conference room full of leaders of state human services agencies and I have never seen a speaker more reviled. Big swaths of the audience (myself included) simply walked out because he was such an asshole.
NEW: For years, a powerful ‘Big Ag’ trade group served up information on activists to the FBI. WIRED went through hundreds of records that reveal a decade-long effort to see the animal rights movement labeled a legitimate terrorism threat. Unpaywalled as part of our FOIA-based coverage.
Merkley to McMahon: "I strongly encourage you to understand how the changes you're making are hurting ordinary kids across this country ... if you'd take the very effort to read the evaluation of the TRIO programs, you wouldn't be here making that argument today."
In the u.s., at this point, the vast majority of zionists are Christian.
Did you mean Israeli, antisemitic fuckstick? You make the world a worse place just by being here.
You’re a disgrace to Canada.
Anything after “But” is back pedaling nonsense. You don’t support the violent act. PERIOD. Why is this so hard for people to say? For fucks sake.
“I don’t support the violent act but… mayyyyybe they had it coming?” May you never know a moment’s peace.
Important to remember that Cuomo resigned when a lengthy, detailed report on multiple varied instances of sexual misconduct was issued, and has never addressed several of the most serious charges.
Earlier this year I wrote about my one encounter with Yarvin, where it was clear he was not very smart, and absolutely, completely, full of himself. The idea that he's influencing *anyone* is bizarre. He's a clown.
Azeen Ghorayshi built a career and a reputation on writing about sexual misconduct in astronomy and used that to pivot into destroying the lives of trans people at the NYT
