The #ESA is the world's most successful conservation law, and it's under attack again. The Trump admin. just proposed four new rules that would gut the Act and drive imperiled plants and animals closer to extinction.

When we talk about "systemic sexism," these are the types of things we're referring to
After years of limbo, the U.S. government has given the green light to a crash test dummy based on the female body. But will it be used right away? Not so fast. n.pr/48r84mJ
The female crash test dummy has been a long time coming — but she isn't here yet

Human rights violations
“Several prisoners said their facilities had become stingier than usual with toilet paper, and women incarcerated in Carswell in Texas reported a shortage of tampons. “I was told to use my socks,” one said.”
NEW: The exodus of corrections officers from federal prisons to ICE comes amid shortages of critical supplies, from food to personal hygiene items, for both staff and inmates.
It threatens to make the already grim conditions in these prisons even worse.

The malice and vengefulness with which RFK Jr. treats legitimate science and scientists will haunt us all for decades.
That this man is at the top of US science and healthcare should mean that no Senator who voted to confirm him should have a viable chance at reelection.

The DOGE cuts seemed to focus on tax teams that pursued enforcement of high income earners. The IRS had been building up enforcement on this area because most of the tax gap is driven by higher earners. Lax enforcement could cost hundreds of billions. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/five-quest...

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
