I’m sure Russia knows what we are going to do before the American people since they have so many people serving in the Trump admin sharing intel with them.

Trump's DOJ has blocked funding for 100 orgs that support victims of human trafficking.

Anti-trafficking advocates say DOJ blocked ~$90m appropriated by Congress, exposing survivors to risk of homelessness, deportation, jail time or re-exploitation.

this just has me thinking about how so much of this government and the movement around it is purely a matter of aesthetics. is there a strategic reason for produce a new warship? maybe. but my hunch is that this is happening because the president thinks it will look cool.
President Trump will announce on Monday a new type of large warship he is calling “battleships,” marking a step toward achieving the president’s vision for a new “Golden Fleet.”

Interesting 180° difference in how the Illinois AG handles wage theft versus, say, “organized retail theft,” which includes a multi-agency “task force,” $5 million per year to cops for spy tools, a PR machine, & tons of low-level arrests for property crimes, while biz owners stiff workers & walk.
We observed lawyers from the Illinois Attorney General’s Office who showed up to wage theft court hearings unprepared. Since 1993, more than 300 cases were initially dismissed because no one from the Attorney General’s Office showed up at all. (with @crainschicago.bsky.social) buff.ly/WJHXcax

President Donald Trump is expected to announce a new class of U.S. Navy battleships, potentially called "Trump-class," at a Pentagon event this afternoon.

Confirmation bias. They believe anti-trans stuff and therefore don't scrutinize Kennedy/Oz when it comes to their anti-trans stuff.

It's truly remarkable how there will be news organizations and journalists who correctly identify that RFK is a menace and that HHS can't e trusted when he pushes stuff about vaccines or Tylenol causing autism... but cover the anti-trans stuff like "Well, HHS says so, and we should trust HHS!"
Trans youth healthcare is based in decades of research and supported by every major medical organization in the US. Under RFK Jr, a handpicked panel produced a dodgy report claiming otherwise.

It's a clear example of Kennedy's war on science. So why aren't news organizations treating it that way?

As trans healthcare is decimated no one is standing up for the integrity of the scientific process for these patients.
