The U.S. Supreme Court: "ICE can racially profile people it arrests."
Also, the U.S. Supreme Court: "Texas can disenfranchise voters based on race."
Can we all agree that we currently have a white supremacist Supreme Court?

AOC: We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was. A man who believed that the civil rights act that granted black Americans the right to vote was a mistake… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.

this paragraph here is the perfect summary of why we don't see safety in this smarmy jagoff…just a different, more insidious kind of danger
![a screenshot of the linked article. it reads as follows, with the text in brackets highlighted in yellow for emphasis:
“Some may argue, as they often do when transgender people raise concerns about Gavin Newsom, that the alternative would be worse. And in many respects, Trump or whatever Trump-like candidate emerges in 2028 would be worse than Newsom on a host of issues. But even here, for transgender people, the calculation is not so straightforward. Right now, the community has one thing going for it: one major political party still passes protective legislation and has not joined the litany of anti-trans policies escalating in red states. [If that fragile dichotomy collapses—if Democrats too decide that transgender people can be sacrificed for political gain—the result will not be a lesser evil.] It will be a political consensus that our rights are gone, and that outcome could be even worse.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4ukhwc2uxzmdcccts6vlp23j/bafkreiao7ckt5xvfvy4qvxuratpr5hibgj6taitoutvqcrfkn27hfbtbme@jpeg)
