Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

There is absolutely no joy in saying “we told you so,” but we did, and we were right.
Erasing and persecuting trans folks was the beginning step, not the end game. No amount of palatability or respectability politics ever appeases fascism for long.

“This is a deliberate act of erasure . . . The Pride Flag is history, resistance, and Pride born at Stonewall itself. Taking it down does not diminish our community. It exposes an administration afraid of visibility and truth."

In the Guardian’s style book, “revealed” is evidently a synonym for “established fact that has been known for several years and previously covered by multiple journalists, writers, and media outlets.”

If we absolutely *must* have oligarchs and robber barons, can we at least restart the practice of having them fund libraries, museums, concert halls, parks, and major infrastructure projects as a peace offering to keep the working class from staging an uprising?

With the immediate removal of 700 federal agents from Minnesota, border czar Tom Homan put the total number of agents remaining in the state at approximately 2,000.
That’s still a dramatic increase from the normal immigration and enforcement staffing in Minnesota of around 150 agents.

Once again here to tap the mic and say Texas is a gerrymandered, voter repressed state, not a "red" state. And every one of you celebrating the (significant) win in Tarrant County better not be the same people in my mentions saying to throw the whole South away. There are good people fighting.
