An amazing story of this decade was the ADL turning all its fire on Israel critics while tech companies dismantled their censors and Hitler-lovers came roaring back.

This is one of the most anguished decisions the University of Michigan has ever faced.
Our doctors were threatened by the Trump Administration: provide gender-affirming care to minors and risk losing your license—or face jail.

Doctors, nurses, and staff at Michigan Medicine are being threatened—just for caring for patients. This isn’t just an attack on health care. It’s an assault on our values, weaponizing the federal government against the vulnerable.
EXCLUSIVE: In response to threats of criminal prosecution from the Department of Justice for performing gender-affirming care, the University of Michigan hospital system will tomorrow announce they are ending gender-affirming care in the UM hospital system. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/univers...

There aren’t sufficient words to describe the president’s rants this morning, but I’ll say this again:
Attacking a Jewish U.S. Senator as “Palestinian” is both antisemitic and racist at the same time — intended to divide us into “good” and “bad” Jews in a way that makes all of us less safe.

Yes. According to Army protocol, congressional staff are VIP Code 5, with a rank equivalent to a two-star general/admiral. Members of Congress are of course significantly higher.
I have never seen USCP, FPS, or any other federal LEO treat any Member with anywhere near this disrespect and violence.

We drill into military officers that Members of Congress have Constitutional oversight rights, Members outrank four-stars in protocol, and even Congressional staffers are treated like generals/admirals.
To see sworn federal officers manhandle and handcuff a U.S. Senator... I'm still shook up.

They were followed, harassed, and physically attacked.
