We are relieved that in Tincher v. Noem et al. the court has issued a preliminary injunction. The ACLU-MN is hopeful that it will prevent further First Amendment violations like the ones that have been harming Minnesotans since the start of “Operation Metro Surge.”

This is a huge win for the people of Portland, LA, and Chicago, and for the rule of law.
As this year comes to a close, we're grateful to the over 400,000 ACLU supporters who made it clear: Troops don't belong on our streets.

After a teen died at Pillen Family Farms, his mom grew frustrated that no one could say why. She requested tissue from his body to independently test. The county attorney said no. “My son is dead,” says Justy Riggs-Panther. “There ought to be answers.” 🔗 buff.ly/oy9OswZ

People are understandably commenting on Lwaxana’s sex drive but in this scene she indicates she not only sees Odo as the being he is but wants to enable him — even when it makes how different they are more explicit and extreme.

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78.
Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

there is a point here i want to amplify. the free speech defenders of the mainstream seem to have no awareness that actual free speech is often more fractious and destabilizing than civil and respectful. a society where speech is genuinely free isn’t the deferential space they want it to be.

The Trump administration is villainizing and punishing those who dare to express anything but unequivocal support for its political views.
Such censorship is profoundly harmful to a free society — but it can be stopped if we resist it together.

Protecting Free Speech in the Face of Government Retaliation
Since Charlie Kirk’s killing, the government has threatened to punish anyone who speaks ill of the conservative free speech activist. This violates the First Amendment.
