"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat."

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

The texts shared a ton of classified info. It’s a simple test. If our enemy got this would it endanger the lives of our servicemembers and/or the mission? If the Russians had passed this to the Houthis our people would have died and the mission failed. RESIGN! www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

the ongoing new lavender scare has been hard for me to grapple with. if you are transgender do not get caught doing anything illegal and do not say anything anywhere that the state would want to prosecute you over. genuinely, be careful and prepare however you can

This is what America's conservative "Christians" are doing to the planet's most vulnerable children.
I know this is brutal to look at, my friends, but we all need to face reality and bear witness to what happens when greedy billionaires cut off aid to the world's poorest children.
How callous do you have to be to let children suffer and die to line the pockets of the wealthy and well-connected?

Okay… NeuroDivergent People:
I think many of us knew this was coming, but our number is being called by the current administration now.
Apparently our existence “poses a dire threat to the American people and our way of life” and we harm the economy and the security of the nation.

This one was censored in the US so not sure how many of you caught this before, but little X knows about the election rigging. Which is why Musk has effectively kidnapped him and doesn't allow him to be with his mother or other family.

I’m not sure they realize there will be a non-assimilationist backlash.
