Today, I talked to a closeted young evangelical whose day job is to make life miserable for LGBTQIA+ folks.

I hope that she discovers the Jesus who hung out with lepers & prostitutes - the Jesus who commanded his followers to accept those of a different gender / sexual orientation (eunuchs).

"We may be facing the biggest plot twist in this entire story: What if Nuzzi isn’t a good writer after all? What if, as a friend texted me this week, the true hero of this 15-act opera is whoever was editing her pieces at New York?"

I wrote for @theintercept.com about how prosecuting transportation of these pamphlets is a danger to all writers, journalists, and Americans.

Possession of words is not a crime, even with intent to distribute.

FOIA maestro @jasonleopold.bsky.social got the details about how the FBI seems to have scrubbed the Epstein Files.
The emails reveal the special training given to FBI personnel working on what it called the “Epstein Transparency Project.” In some instances they referred to it as the “Special Redaction Project.” The training entailed PowerPoint slide presentations and video instruction on how to review the files.

And not a word from them when a monster who helped finance Hamas gets a corrupt bargain from Trump
MAGA Jews spent so much time conflating left wing criticism of Israel’s actions with antisemitism that they overlooked the significant danger that the MAGA coalition poses for Jews who live in America. What did they expect from a party that de-humanizes other minority groups?

In a fight over relocating the helo 10 years ago, Congress legally required that it be kept in place - so DHS is quite likely violating Federal law by removing it, and there's now a lawsuit to that effect. 3/3

This is putting lives at risk: half of the local economy is commercial fishing & crabbing, and we're getting into the busiest and most dangerous season. DHS and USCG are refusing to answer questions from local and state officials about any of this, just putting out chest-thumping releases. 2/

There's more sh!t going on in Oregon with ICE right now: they appear to be trying to put in a detention center on the central coast, and have pulled the local Coast Guard rescue helicopter out of the local airport, either as blackmail or to use the granted Federal property. 1/

Thread, today in St. Paul, Minnesota raid and attacks by federal agents.

Dana Thiede, KARE11:

"As word spread about the operation unfolding on Rose Ave., neighbors and activists calling themselves 'constitutional observers' streamed in, holding phones in the air to videotape what was unfolding."
Federal agents launch another operation in St. Paul
A witness said the number of agents "just kept growin' and growin' and growin," as did an angry crowd that was eventually sprayed with chemical irritants.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.
