Just how many people are going to be blacklisted for saying perfectly true things that just aren't complimentary of the president?

Because 'Antifa' is not an organisation, this means anyone can be designated 'Antifa', just as anything in Hong Kong can be designated a threat to 'national security'. State terror works best when no-one knows where the line is.
BREAKING: Trump says he is designating “Antifa” as a “major terrorist organization.”
Such a step being taken this way would be concerning enough, given what it actually is, but, given that Trump sees “Antifa” hiding in every corner of opposition, this could be an extremely alarming escalation.

“Media capture” happens when friends of a strongman leader buy up media and transform them into mouthpieces for him. And it happens when big corporations decide that sacrificing the legitimacy of their media properties is a way to protect their farflung businesses from the fascist leader’s sabotage.

To the millions who showed up today.
You participated in one of the largest single day protests in American history.
And you did it in a week that was the most authoritarian week of the Trump presidency.
It matters.
Thank you. And keep building.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This - and also, autistic people who don't work, who need help in the bathroom, who produce nothing of monetary value and have no spectacular talents, are also human beings.
Even if all the premises of RFK's argument are true, the conclusion - that autistic lives aren't worth living - is false.

I know a LOT of autistic people. They all pay taxes. They all purport themselves like full human people because they are. They all have jobs. They can all play sports. They can all pee pee and poo poo just fine. Some are incredible poets. Some are remarkable speakers or artists or coders. Fuck rfk

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: If you love freedom but don’t care if it applies to everyone, what you actually love is privilege.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.

The lesson for universities is you may as well fight back. You'll lose the money either way. The only question is whether you keep your dignity.
Exclusive: Weeks after President Donald Trump’s administration ordered NIH to pull $250 million in biomedical research grants to Columbia University, the agency is freezing all remaining grant money owed to the university until further notice. scim.ag/4if5Rg1

Zooey is doing WORK in Montana and teaching everyone several lessons:
1) You can stand on your values as a Democrat and not harm trans people.
2) Doing so can actually move hearts and minds in a traditionally conservative state.
3) There is value in having representation in our halls of power.

Two more wins for trans people in Montana!
(1) A bill creating a new "indecent exposure" crime for trans people was amended to remove the anti-trans provision.
(2) A bill allowing detransitoners to sue their doctor was amended to only be valid if the doctors didn't follow medical best practices.
