For those of you keeping score, 18-22 year-old students calling for an end to slaughter in Gaza are so racist they need to be expelled or deported, but 24-35 year-olds celebrating Hitler, rape, and, um, racism are just kids being kids so chill.
Also, racism is over so no need for Voting Right Act.

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

This is the line that Dems need to push. It can't be simply. "Political violence is bad" it MUST be "Political violence is bad and Trump and his ilk are responsible for creating conditions ripe for political violence"
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on the shooting of Charlie Kirk:
"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

My requirements for any Democrat running for president are simple:
1. Undo/reverse every single anti-trans policy the Trump administration has implemented.
2. Pledge not to further restrict trans people's rights.
3. Support the passage of the Equality Act and make it a priority.

Is there a reason why I have to search for news about the Venezuelan/El Salvador prisoner exchange? I follow so many activists and theres 0 “skeets” about it on my Following or Discover page and its not trending. This is something to care about and pay attention to.

The gleeful doxing of someone cheating in public is bad even if they are a CEO and even if they are a Coldplay fan. It's bad because this kind of thing is happening to random people on TikTok for such crimes as "sitting silently on a plane" or "being attractive"

And thanks to a generation of reactionary centrists, feckless Dems, autocratic GOPers, and a TV culture of non-stop crime shows and bleeds-it-leads news, we spent TWENTY-FIVE YEARS of declining and low crime rates building out that police-state style police system at EVERY level of government.
Been saying this for weeks. In order to build a mass deportation machine to round up and deport 4% of the entire goddamn population, you must first build the police state.

Studio Ghibli films are such masterpieces that speak to empathy, connection, nature, and humanity. It's beyond disgusting seeing that art style completely bastardized by soulless generative AI and used to support fascist trolls. It's genuinely contradictory to everything Miyazaki stands for.

The men sent to do hard labor in a Salvadoran prison:

- A teen who got a tattoo in Dallas because he thought it looked cool.
- A 26-year-old whose tattoos his wife says are unrelated to a gang.
- A barber whose family says he has no gang ties.

If you live in California, please join me in calling Gov Newsom at (916) 445-2841 to let him know he’s lost your support and you’ll never vote for a Democrat who doesn’t stand with trans people.
If I could make the call while boarding the 105 bus you can do it too.
