The rapist president 'surprisingly' doesn't support/acknowledge victims of rape and pedophilia.
😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

There is absolutely no viable path forward for this country that doesn’t hinge on extreme accountability for everyone involved in this administration. They’re going to whine about politicization and credulous media types will echo them, but the thing is, they’ve committed tons of obvious crimes!
I do not think an exec branch led by a man who thinks he is entitled to treat federal agents as an arm of his firm, refers to Somali Americans as “garbage” and has said racist things specifically about Omar is capable of neutrally applying the law to her, to put it mildly apnews.com/article/ilha...

If there’s evidence of fraud or other financial crimes, let’s see it. But trying to denaturalize and deport a sitting member of Congress over mistakes a parent allegedly made on immigration forms when she was a child is immoral and reprehensible. We can’t stand for it.

Yeah, that's not how any of this works.
Ed Sheeran has released a statement on Macklemore being removed from his tour for speaking up for Palestine: “I am not complicit. […] Just because I choose not to speak publicly, it doesn't mean I don't have [my own opinions], and it doesn't mean I don't care.”

Ms. Rachel: "Ed Sheeran had an opportunity…Instead he caved to people who refuse to accept what the world knows." "If more than 20,000 white children were killed…everyone would be shouting…Treating some children's lives as less worthy of outrage is racist. Silence during a genocide is not neutral."
New: Macklemore says Robert Kraft — who owns Gillette Stadium, where Macklemore & Ed Sheeran were to perform later this month — called Sheeran. Kraft rallied other owners together behind an ultimatum for Sheeran: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you won't be allowed in our venues.

it's insane they do this bend-over-backwards "critics say it raises questions" shit when the actual law just says "its illegal to put living people on currency"
The U.S. Mint releases video showing the manufacturing process for $1 coins featuring President Trump, issued to mark the United States' 250th anniversary in 2026. Critics have raised questions about the design's legality.

For reference, the NBA also docked the Wolves 5 first-round picks in the Joe Smith saga back in 2000, although two of the picks were ultimately returned to the Wolves later on. The Wolves were fined $3.5m in that instance.
The NBA has released the penalties from the Kawhi Leonard investigation. No contract voided, but Clippers lose 5 first-round picks and are fined $30m, among other penalties. Full list of penalties below.

This is an all out psychosis by centrists & right wing media
Tur: It’s not just the media, and I reject that framing. 6 in 10 Americans don’t know who he is. I’m not saying he’s the most important person in the world, but...is it worth losing votes you need to win? AES: 10 in 10 Americans agree that they can’t afford the things that they need in their lives.

Let me recap: the MPD is 30 million over budget, helped Lang plan his riot, set up barricades for him, let him drive multiple vehicles into a crowded area, one of the cop had their foot run over, and now we can’t press charges because the cops are in on it in the first place.
Citing “extensive evidence of communication and logistical coordination between the Minneapolis Police Department and Lang’s security detail,” prosecutors will not press felony riot charges against white supremacist provocateur Edward Jacob “Jake” Lang for his latest hate rally in Minneapolis.

People love this idea that racism is about your internal thoughts, such that you can never know if someone committing racist actions is actually racist. Wonder who that benefits. If you're materially supporting racism you're a racist, no matter what your internal dialogue over it is.

The term “transphobic” is so inadequate for bigotry like Hegseth’s. He doesn’t fear trans people like some fear spiders or heights. He hates them with a passion. It’s an evil choice, not a psychological malady.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth used a transphobic slur while speaking at the Iowa State Fair Monday, where he appeared in support of Republican Rep. Zach Nunn, who is running for a third term in Congress.

Yes. I am calling for a purity test. Nothing will matter if we nominate someone who won't: • Attempt aggressive institutional reform (SCOTUS, DC statehood, ICE, etc.) • Hold the criminals of this administration accountable • Rebuild and expand the social democratic institutions Trump tore down
Someone should really come up with a check list for potential 2028 Democratic Party Presidential candidates with regard to how they'll attempt to prosecute the innumerable crimes of this administration, reform SCOTUS, & rebuild the institutions that Trump tore down.
