This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.

This story gets so much worse. The trans woman who she refused to fence only finished in 24th place. Stephanie, the forfeiter, also beat *multiple* cis men in a regional match just one week earlier! And conservatives just paid her $5k for her kneel. Why is nobody talking about this?

Fencing is typically a co-ed sport. This is transmisogyny in its grossest form.

I think multiple elected officials just nonchalantly being like “Elon Musk is not a government employee and has zero authority so his words are basically toilet paper” would probably result in one of the most epic public breakdowns and illegal threats against federal officials we’ve ever seen

Truly don’t understand why someone, anyone, hasn’t said to treat every order Elon gives as de facto illegal until a court clarifies what authority he has

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans. Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

Pfizer’s cancer drug commercial was beautiful, but their breast cancer drug Ibrance costs $10k per month and their prostate cancer drug Xtandi costs $22k per month. Beautiful commercials don’t change the fact that 42% of cancer patients exhaust their life savings in 2 years.

Project 2025 states clearly it doesn’t matter who is president. That’s why JD Vance is there and they will never leave if they accomplish what they are intending to do they’ll never leave and democracy is over. I spent three days at CPAC last year and they are deadly serious

There is a simple solution to the CBS/Trump lawsuit. The Harris campaign should sue Fox and insist Fox release the unedited versions of all their many edited interviews with Trump.

“MAGA intellectual” lolll Other words might describe the newly tapped “undersecretary of state for public diplomacy” a bit better.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Our beloved Canada is under threat. The threat comes from the president of the US—a convicted felon and known predator. But the threat is also being driven by the hate algorithms of oligarchs like Elon Musk….

NEW: An email went out to the FBI asking for a list of names of all agents that worked on the January 6th investigation, AND the Haniyeh investigation. The J6 one I get. But why does trump want a list of everyone who prosecuted the Hamas terrorists?

Earlier today, Anglican Priest Calvin Robinson ended a speech at a pro life summit in DC by giving the exact same Nazi salute that Elon Musk did. The crowd laughed & cheered. The Anglican Church revoked his license. This is how you handle Nazis. You condemn them. You don’t pander to them.

My good friend, Rhiana Gunn Wright used to say that politics is how you distribute power and how you distribute pain. We are now governed by people who are laser focused on meting out pain.
