Politics of gender-affirming care, Russia’s pursuit of Ukrainian territories
A new report from Trump’s Department of Health and Human Services tries to discredit gender-affirming care, contradicting leading medical experts who say it can save lives.

People who know Mahmoud Kahlil wrote letters to the court.
At a protest, a Jewish student recalled, when a non-affiliate began shouting antisemitic slogans, Mahmoud "was the first to intervene."
"He has committed no crime, nor has advocated for anything that I have not also stood for."

Unfortunately, there's nothing more American than procrastinating on revolution until a generation of charismatic hero figures have risen and died for it. The mob will only move a finger once enough bodies of willing radicals have tipped the scales in favor of justice.

The Veterans Administration is requiring therapists to return to the office full time, but does not have enough space for them
As a result, they are forced to provide mental health counseling to veterans in open cubicles

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

So, funnily enough, there already WAS a Gulf of America. It was named by a Siberian governor, after the ship he sailed through it, in the 19th century.
Its name was changed over 100 years later as part of a Soviet plan to erase the history of its acquired territories. It's now called Nakhodka.

Venezuelan Migrant Sent to Guantánamo Bay Is ‘Not a Criminal,’ Family Pleads (Gift Article)
Luis Alberto Castillo arrived in the United States so that he could “give everything to his son,” said his sister. Then, while scrolling on TikTok, she found out he was headed to Guantánamo.

Truly, the cost of wheelchairs and the ridiculousness of the process and what insurance companies refuse to cover is one of the most ridiculous obstacles ever.
Yes, let’s charge the cost of a used car (or much more) for something people need to get around for basic access.

There was also that one time a known lifelong criminal - also an amoral businessman, coincidentally - manipulated his way into a position of power, then pardoned and deputized mobs of goons to wrest control of everything from everyone.
