Breaking: We are in Court fighting to to ensure fair and accurate ballot language on the misleading, anti-abortion Amendment 3, which would end the right to reproductive freedom in Missouri. Missourians are required to have fair and accurate ballot language when asked to change the constitution.

Every time I unexpectedly find Michael Brown in something I'm reading it's a shock to my nervous system and a reminder of the enduring power of the Ferguson Uprising. Last night it was at the end of a 2020 Rick Bardot poem about helicopters.

Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

Columbia's B265-25 targets people experiencing houselessness by criminalizing people in public spaces and threatening 1A rights. It could apply to peaceful protests, fundraising efforts, or distribution of direct services and goods. Tell your Council Member: these are not our values. NO on B265-25.

Guys I just sent Josh Hawley a thank you email about something. It was for condemning nazi Nick Fuentes! Except I was mad that Eric Schmidtt didn't condemn him so in my email I accidentally said Eric Fuentes. Freudian slip!

Happening now: We are in court fighting the state’s unconstitutional book ban — passed as SB775 —that led to the immediate removal of hundreds of books from school libraries. We will always stand to protect student’s First Amendment right to access information.
