Kristi Noem has been working with the producer of “Duck Dynasty” to pitch a reality TV show—titled “The American”—where immigrants will compete in a string of challenges across the country “for the honor of fast-tracking their way to U.S. citizenship,” according to a new report.

The Democratic Party, as a group, does not value your freedom to be a fully-realized sexual person any more than Republicans do. There are exceptions. But we have to strongly PRESSURE them to do the right thing or they’ll fold
It's outrageous that Democrat lawmakers are still willing to go along with this charade just to score "protect the children" political points.

KOSA would make children less safe, not more safe.

Human rights, LGBTQ, racial justice, and civil liberties groups oppose it.

This Bill Purports to Protect Kids from Big Tech. For LGBTQ+ Youth, It’s a Grave Danger
Those on the right have said they will use KOSA to target queer and trans content. So why do some Democrats support it?

Very much worth listening, I think, to Harvard political scientist Daniel Ziblatt on why the first four months of Trump's second term have been bad--and why things could well get worse.

We stand with Ulviyya Ali and journalists all over the world, including VOA employees let go by DOGE and Trump, against the police state censorship of authoritarians, dictators and kleptocrats.

Democracy dies without press freedom.
She covered human rights for VOA in Azerbaijan. Now she’s in jail.
Ulviyya Ali reported for Voice of America for years. Trump’s moves to dismantle the U.S.-funded outlet may have put her at greater risk, activists say.

Don't call Jewish people blasphemers because they correctly identify Trump as one of the Christians oppressing them.

It's Jewish Heritage month. An important reminder there would not be a disability rights movement without Jewish people. From Judith Heumann to Ari Ne'eman to Chai Feldblum, Jewish Americans adapted the message of Tikkun Olam to pushing for a more just world for people with disabilities.
