Trump Writes Netanyahu Strongly Worded Check

We keep hearing we have to embrace penitent Trump voters, but if you don’t want to, remember this: 77.3M Americans voted for Trump. But 90M didn’t vote at all.
It’s more palatable (and better strategy) to reach the latter than to make room for people who chose bigotry and now want to cry about it.

I keep seeing more articles about how they regret it now that the damage is done & I truly believe that if you have any genuine interest in salvaging what’s left of this country then whether you want to or not, you can never forgive these people. You can never let them live what they did down.

This was today. My heart is so full and im SO exhausted. Back to Van tomorrow, but, as always, leaving a piece of my heart here in NC.
Visiting my alma mater to give a talk on my book project (which is VERY MUCH in progress mind you).
It’s really a dream come true and feels like a homecoming. WGSS at UNCG shaped me in such profound ways and without my training there I would not be the scholar I am today. Simply thrilled!

Pritzker seems to be the only one warning about this regularly
Pritzker: "One of the reasons Trump wants to send troops into cities is bc he wants to be able to take control of the 2026 elections...if they've got troops in cities, & it becomes a kind of norm for people, then it won't be abnormal for them when they're going to vote having troops at ballot boxes"

Is it really such an untenable idea that social media could or even SHOULD be public goods?! Like is it just gonna always remain the case that to be on the internet is to subject oneself to ever more horrors under the guise of “terms of service,” “moderation,” and “compliance.”

You simply MUST be joking. You built something that only had the appeal of not being Twitter and has a learning curve for new users. Now you adopt TOS changes only in response to a fascist’s death and retroactively apply them piecemeal?
Now tell the joke thats actually funny

The thought occurs to me that anti trans activists are so hellbent on the idea that we have been “transed” or that we are transing youth because they themselves feel recognize on some level their genders were foisted upon them so they assume a trans gender must be as well 🤔
