If anyone was still pretending this isn’t just about excluding trans kids from public life, the Trump administration just opened a Title IX investigation into a Maine school district because a trans student is on a *co-ed* cheerleading squad.

ICE has no idea who they’re hiring. Period.
According to Laura Jedeed, a Trump critic who openly opposes ICE, the agency offered her a job after a 6 minute interview. No paperwork. No real vetting. Just name, age, and a fast track toward “as many guns and badges in the field as possible” her words.

Liebe Medien, ich kann die Schlagzeile "Keine Einigung zwischen USA und Dänemark" nicht mehr sehen. Wenn ein Bewaffneter eine Bank stürmt, titelt ihr doch auch nicht: "Räuber und Kassiererin finden keinen Konsens über Geldübergabe." Hört auf, imperiale Aggression als normale Diplomatie zu framen.

If you won't bring severe consequences for these relentless crimes against humanity, if you won't even consider it, if you won't even try then what is the point of you? Not just as a politician; as a human being.
I want these fuckers prosecuted. I will not vote for a candidate who shies away from this.
A teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present.
He was bundled into the van & taken away.
Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?”
I don’t know how America comes back from all this.

"'Can I check a pulse?' yelled the bystander, standing across Portland Avenue from Good’s lifeless body inside her crashed SUV, video footage of the exchange shows.
"'No,' an agent replies. 'Back up.'
"'I’m a physician!'
"'I don’t care.'"
