Oh my.

James Talarico is incredibly skilled in dismantling Christian Nationalists.

Get this man in the Senate.

An ICE Agent was BUSTED by Bloomington Police in "Operation Creep" trying to solicit sex from a minor. When arrested, he said "I'm ICE, boys."

That #FuckICE Agent is toast.

I was so wrong about Starmer. IMHO, he has enabled Farage’s f/r party, & the UK is sliding toward the real prospect of a dangerous & traitorous fascist sitting in No10. If that happens, even Boris Johnson’s reckless populist rampage will seem tame by comparison.

Starmer’s squandering of a historic election victory is a tragedy nearing its finale | Rafael Behr
The tactics that gave Labour its huge majority in 2024 were no preparation for government – and the prime minister has proved he has nothing more to offer, says Guardian columnist Rafael Behr

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain.

The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.

Trump strutted misogyny onstage and too many in that press room let him. A wannabe fascist king performing for a real one while women doing their jobs were thrown to the wolves.
Silence is cowardice.
And we’re done letting cowards set the standard.

F*ck the patriarchy.

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

The Senate has unanimously voted to release the Jeffrey Epstein files. This means one of two things:
1. The files have been altered, erased or destroyed.
2. Republicans are jumping ship to save themselves.
