Marsha and I worked hard for marriage equality and we are working just as hard to get @mikiesherrill.bsky.social elected Governor. GOTV for Mikie. Our rights depend upon it
So many NJ marriages, including Louise and Marsha’s, became possible when NJ legalized gay marriage in 2013. Jack Ciattarelli didn’t support it then, and his top advisor now wants to roll it back. We can trust @mikiesherrill.bsky.social to protect marriage equality.
We Fought for Marriage Equality: We Won’t Let Jack Ciattarelli Turn Back the Clock - Insider NJ

The first group of immigrants has arrived at a new “camp” deep in the Florida Everglades, where officials are openly describing it as “concentrating” certain people in one area. Have you seen the photos of the flooding? This entire site is a human rights violation.

“Willful disinformation on the part of SSA”. There is no bottom for how despicable they are.
Can confirm this email is authentic — and about nothing in it is true.
Social Security income is still taxed. This bill does nothing to change that.
It’s willful disinformation on the part of SSA. It’s a lie.

Hi, I think a lot of us received e-mails from SSA saying that social security will no longer be taxed - and that somehow there is "enhanced deductions" (how much enhancement can you make to 0?) for those over 65. What part, if any, of this is true? Thank you!

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:
A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

MASSIVE good news for trans people in the United States.
A federal judge has just granted class action status to transgender people looking to update their passports.
This means that very shorty, the window will open to update your passports with the correct gender marker.
