Los Angeles residents were outraged after dozens of federal agents marched through MacArthur Park, in one of the city’s most immigrant-heavy neighborhoods. Homeland Security officials said it was an immigration enforcement operation, though it was unclear if anyone had been arrested. trib.al/JYW5IsU

I balled my eyes out election night with the knowledge that RFK Jr would have a position in government. I am not a neutral person when it comes to people with ableist, anti-medicine views who could harm both myself and people I care about.
it’s such a weird conceit of American journalism to enforce the batshit idea that people will only trust us to tell the truth if we ostentatiously lie about our (supposed lack of) personal opinions

Sexual assault survivors at US colleges will be forced back into live hearings with cross-examination. Alleged perps will be able to ask about victims' prior sexual history to "prove consent." The end of Biden's Title IX rule harms far more than trans students. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Kentucky judge guts Biden’s Title IX rules so Trump doesn’t have to.
In overturning protections for trans students, the court also undid policies aimed at helping sexual assault survivors hold their attackers accountable.
