Minnesota: a federal judge just barred federal agents from arresting or using pepper spray or “nonlethal” munitions on peaceful protesters, and from stopping cars without reasonable suspicion.
If your operation requires masks, intimidation, and chemical spray, it’s not “order”, it’s fear.

We need not only a new VRA but a new Reconstruction that removes the egregious gerrymandering and racially motivated vote suppression from the south - well, from everywhere that has pulled that shit at this point.

Trump should be dogged forever by these two words. In my experience, protectors protect their own kind, too.

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO

Well, yes and no.

As someone else has pointed out, a conservative sees "government" as things like the IRS and taxes in general and regulations which restrict businesses and such. They see rules as an affront to liberty but don't mind a giant military.

Liberals want government to Do Stuff.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.

And trans lives are grounded in reality.

We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

Notice how it’s always, “the Bible must inform our laws!” until it comes to the +2,000 verses in the Bible that discuss the generous use of wealth and possessions in a way that prioritizes the needs of the poor, this sick, the stranger, the vulnerable, and the oppressed.

When will corporate news media discuss the fact that the president is totally demented and insane?

Oh right, the pedophilic billionaire elite don’t want you to think about that.

Rapture, soon-ish?
Nah, Rapture will never happen. The way I read it, god will never let anyone be correct about the date and there's always someone saying, "Today's the day!"

Under Donald Trump’s economy:

Coffee is up 26%
Beef is up 14%
Oranges are up 17%
Bananas are up 6%
Chicken is up 6%
Chocolate Chip Cookies are up 5%
Potato Chips are up 4%
Milk is up 4%
But average worker pay is only up 2%

Trumpflation is eating up your paycheck.

I remember helping my mother scald raw milk before we consumed it.
We have forgotten all the ways people used to get toxins out of their food before federal regulation. It's not that food and water used to be cleaner -- it's that domestic work used to include detoxing everything we put in our mouths!
When people say "We used to drink raw milk from our own cow and it was fine,"

That's... usually not the case!

In families w their own cow, the mom usually boiled it before using.

We just forgot bc that's a boring chore that mom did. And who pays attention to that?

Same old tired story, the person who claims to have the right to trample on other person's rights. Seems like a paradox, but it's pretty straightforward!
