Why decline all these chances to defend feminism? Because to participate would be accepting the premise that our rights and humanity are up for debate in the first place.

Once you’ve conceded that it’s reasonable to ask whether women’s equality was a mistake, you’ve already lost.

Because it’s not just Bari Weiss’ CBS asking this question—in the last few months, I’ve been approached by half a dozen different shows looking to ‘debate’ the same topic.

I even got a request from NPR-distributed “Open to Debate” to see if I’d weigh in on “Has Feminism Hurt Women?”

I’m laid up with the flu, but I had to peek my head out and say that this is *so* much worse than it seems.

And it’s already pretty fucking bad!

The Americans Who Saw All This Coming—but Were Ignored and Maligned
Call them the Cassandras: the people—mostly not white and male—who smelled the fascism all over Trump from jump street. Why were they “alarmists,” and how did “anti-alarmism” become cool?

I’m at Albi Kitchen on Nicollet and they could definitely use more support these days. We need to work hard to keep our Somali-owned businesses afloat while the community is being targeted.

URGENT: I need a Minneapolis immigration attorney for a client in the hospital and likely detained by ICE. If anyone here has contacts with someone, or better yet practices in this area, please reach out to me via DM.

It is important to promise, now, that whatever Trump builds at the White House will be torn down as soon as he leaves.

Hakeem Jeffries' AI Commission is littered with corporate and tech-friendly Dems. AI is wildly unpopular, yet too many national Democratic leaders are rejecting that reality in favor of wooing back Silicon Valley. From our friends at @revolvingdoordc.bsky.social:

Friends, we have some positive news tonight out of the Constitution, Bylaws, and Rules Committee re: the DFL Feminist Caucus.

The TL;DR of it is the entire feminist caucus leadership has to either undergo extensive training, or resign within 10 days.

This is the second discharge petition that has successfully led to House passage of legislation in the last 6 weeks.
There is a third on a congressional stock trading ban, and it can pass if Jeffries leans into it.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Twin Cities- it’s day 6 of the federal occupation.

Today’s assignment:

1. Keep defending our neighbors. We are hearing inspiring stories every day of abductions disrupted.

2. Check on your neighbors who may be terrified.

3. Spend some money in an immigrant owned business.

So, to all the "RFK's got some good ideas" folks (Rachael Bedard, Leana Wen) and Jay Bhattacharya is "an excellent choice for NIH" (Steven Macedo, Frances Lee) and Vinay Prasad "will bring a breath of fresh air to FDA" (Adam Cifu, John Mandrola) groupies--you own this now too.
I think the *speed* at which RFK Jr and his Great Barrington Declaration/anti-vaxx/Brownstone wrecking crew have been dismantling the US public health system has been really astonishing
Well, Senators Bill Cassidy and Thom Tillis, you wanted RFK Jr. to “go wild” at HHS.

Congratulations. You’ve achieved your goal. He is well on his way to completely destroying the US vaccine program.
