One of my partners' roommates was pressure to flee the country by ICE, leaving several trans people without a place to live.

I'd like to raise some money to keep them all housed.

I don't say this often but: I'm so proud to be a climate and environment reporter. We cover an issue that is vitally important to humanity and the natural world. 14 of my climate colleagues at the Post were laid off today and I'm devastated.

I wish Chuck would resign and just take a job as a permanent doormat. He should find his joy on being stepped on and disrespected as much as possible and not ruining congress while he is at it.

🤔 It’s definitely not suspicious at all to have people point out your common Twitter sign off is in the Epstein files and ten completely delete your yacht’s logs right?

It took like a couple of posts to go from "concerns about women's sports" to frothing natalism and dogmatic belief in reproductive teleology.

Hey dipshit what if I told you women weren't "built to bear children" either because we were not designed with a purpose, and certainly not to be broodmares

The fact that both are quite experienced—8 years and 12 years with CBP—is yet more evidence that CBP should be abolished and all of its agents fired. There's no way to "reform" or "retrain" that, it's just a violent gang with badges.
