I live in Victoria BC. I love live music and pets, I follow politics (but probably shouldn’t) and have been called “a buzzkill” by even my most liberal friends. I’m not a buzzkill. He/him.

John Oliver and Co did a great explanation of what public media does, and who exactly the funding recission actually hurts (Hint: it's not liberal elites.) Also very proud to see my old friend and former WBEZ reporter Lauren Chooljian featured for her amazing work.

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

I’ve seen this reported in a few publications though admittedly not any American ones.
I know given FIFA’s history it’s not likely, but maybe with enough pressure they would consider it?
I strongly urge the Olympics to consider moving the games as well.

The International Olympics Committee already has an answer to the "trans question" based on its own history and study.
It is disgraceful new president Kirsty Coventry is likely working to exclude trans athletes.
What else might "protection of the female category" mean?
