Scientists at the CDC were ordered late on Friday to withdraw any pending publications, at any scientific journal, that mention terms such as “transgender,” “immigrant,” “LGBT” or “pregnant people.”

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

Leavitt really just said, “President Trump wants you to remember Jesus didn’t have electricity either and he did just fine.” Whaaat?!!! What does any logical human do with that statement? Laugh? Cry? I’m mystified by the idiocy of it all

Does Donald Trump honestly expect us to take seriously the notion that Fox weekend's Pete Hegseth, The Real World's Sean Duffy, RFK Jr, Dr. Oz, Kash Patel, and JD Vance represent the "height of genius" and the "best and brightest" -- his proclaimed standards for his government? Seriously?

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Make no mistake: this is Trump trying to establish a concentration camp but ensure it’s not in full view of cameras and reporters so they can deny the atrocities that occur inside

This is how a dictator acts.
 
Sending 30K migrants to Guantanamo—a place w/ repeated human rights violations—is an attempt to evade our legal system & act in the shadows hundreds of miles away.
 
REMINDER—the U.S. affords weaker due process/legal rights for people detained there.

BREAKING: Trump announced he'll order the opening of a detention center at Guantanamo Bay to house up to 30,000 immigrants suspected of being in the country illegally.

Okay, posting again this as a message to myself (but for anyone who also needs to hear it):

1. When the news makes you feel paralyzed, close the window. Take a break. You can't help if you're overwhelmed.

2. Focus on the things in your control and take ONE action. Just start w/ a small one.

Question: is there no way for Congress to enact some limits regarding Executive Orders? It’s uncanny that, with the stroke of a pen, this man can take away so many rights and protections, and then we all have to wait for these orders to be disputed in court.

And now he wants to detain immigrants in Guantanamo Bay?! The same facility that’s infamous for its use of torture? This is unreal

Target ending its DEI initiative is extremely saddening and disappointing. My personal plan is to strictly buy the BIPOC brands I want to support — such as Lip Bar, Rizos Curls, etc — from there and nothing else. How you spend your dollars can speak volumes
