Trump is just the worst! The National Park Service is reshuffling its free-admission schedule so that visitors get in free on Donald Trump’s birthday next year, while Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth (previously free days) will now require regular entrance fees.
National Parks are now free on Trump's birthday, but not on MLK Jr. Day or Juneteenth
The Trump administration overhauled the list of free National Park days for 2026.

Anyway... did we ever figure out whether or not women ruined the workplace?
To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

There’s a harmful myth that most patients regret their decision to have an abortion.

In fact, the opposite is true. The majority of Turnaway Study participants reported feeling relief even years after their abortion.

This week:

-Three more universities rejected Trump's extortion compact
-Over a dozen airports refused to play Kristi Noem's propaganda video
-30+ press outlets refused to comply with Pete Hegseth's new restrictions

The only way to rebuke Trump's authoritarianism is solidarity.

most Americans don't know this because we don't teach about how other countries work but if the equivalent of the government shutdown happened in most parliamentary democracies it would automatically trigger new elections

One of the things that’s maddening about this is that *everyone knows* that casting “male loneliness” as a great social emergency—like the “birth rate” panic—is a way to legitimize attacks on women’s freedom. It’s taboo to point this out even though it serves literally no other function!
“Male loneliness” is a vague, empirically unfalsifiable Potemkin village of an argument meant to smuggle yet more anti feminism into popular consensus.

“We are concerned that the sweeping policy changes and spending cuts coming out of the administration will only cause us to backslide on all the progress made.”
Women’s health care has a racism problem. Trump’s war on DEI is making it worse.

Let's be clear here: Donald Trump is doing what authoritarians do.

He wants to seize our right to public information to distort reality for his political gain, reports @davidcorn.bsky.social. He's waging war on the truth, rewriting the past, and falsifying the present.

Fun fact but a lot of state rape laws have “voluntary intoxication” loopholes, where a victim being too intoxicated to consent isn’t legally cognizable as rape if she ingested alcohol or drugs voluntarily. In effect, intoxication only nullifies consent in these states if the victim is roofied.
Some BG on Rao, who once blamed women for date rape:

“A good way to avoid a potential date rape is to stay reasonably sober," she wrote, and if a woman drinks to the point where she can't choose if she wants sex, “getting to that point was part of her choice.” www.huffpost.com/entry/neomi-...

By undoing the “endangerment finding,” it would weaken the government’s ability to limit climate warming emissions.

Children, in particular, are more susceptible to air pollution caused by these emissions due to their still developing lungs. www.instagram.com/p/DMvzF16P55...
