USAID was probably the closest the United States will ever get to paying reparations its imperial bullshit.

Sorry, world.

My household was “randomly selected for the US Census American Community Survey”. Here are some of the questions.

"The AHA's carefully researched American Lesson Plan thoroughly refutes the executive order’s cynical & unsubstantiated depiction of the landscape of American education."

Remember the Cass Report, which supposedly "followed the science" on trans kids health? The huge York University epidemiology study on which it was based has finally been published, and it contradicts many of the report's conclusions. By @gidmk.bsky.social.

Here’s an idea cis ladies:

1. Trump's immigration crackdown is premised on the idea that the US is experiencing a massive surge in violent crime

According to Trump the crime wave is especially severe in cities

THIS IS A LIE

New data shows crime is LOWER than when Trump left office in 2020, and below pre-pandemic levels
Trump's fake crime wave
On January 19, during a rally held in Washington, D.C., President Donald Trump claimed that “crime has gone through the roof” and that it “was up like 40%.” He claimed that violent crime is especially...

Today, ICE is ramping up mass raids across the country. We know it’s scary, but that’s Trump’s ultimate goal: to scare us and cause chaos. We knew this was coming, and we’re ready for it. Here’s what you can do if you’re approached by an immigration agent ⬇️🧵
