Unreal.
Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment.

Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

He was just, like, a guy. Not a politician. Not a statesman of any kind. Just some really mean guy. Flags at half mast. Yankee moment of silence. Whatever the shit this is.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
not even surprising at this point

🧵 We've had a decade of marriage equality—and that may be all we get. Just like I warned about Roe for years, I'm warning you now: Obergefell is absolutely on the chopping block. The same "history and tradition" test that killed abortion rights? That's their blueprint for same-sex marriage.

Marriage equality isn’t safe. Don’t believe people who tell you it is.

Good advice here:
Do you still follow someone because you’re angry at them and want to track the things they do?

I invite you to start your summer by unfollowing them so you don’t devote energy to something that makes you sad

This is the plan
Not content with mocking the civil rights movement, they’re just going around the world to collect every white racist loser in modern history.
This government's been failing moral tests pretty consistently for a while now but "who were the bad guys in apartheid?" is a pretty easy one and everyone's had the answer key for 40+ years

This so directly out of the Nazi playbook. The very obvious plan is to get rid of the independent accreditors and put all universities under jurisdiction of the federal government. This is how Hitler took over German academia and made it a wing of his party.

We finished The Residence last night (after Cory B stopped speaking) and then learned that Andre Braugher was cast as A.B. and filmed most of the scenes before his death. Love him so much! Excellent show.

Unbelievable
We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.

HAIRCUTS.

This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.
GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation
The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

BREAKING: A federal court blocked Trump’s military ban on transgender service members, ruling it unconstitutional. The court found no evidence supporting claims of reduced readiness, citing the honor & excellence of trans troops.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.”

WOW. Planes in air must turn around.

A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

PSA if you’ve been trying to force yourself to Make A Phone Call to contact your representatives for days and not quite getting there, you can email them. They receive written messages too. It’s okay to be imperfect rather than stuck in a guilt spiral that exhausts you and goes nowhere. democracy.io
