Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed.
Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.

It felt like a betrayal that he was part of the Obama administration when he'd been very publicly sexist for years at that point. Good fucking riddance.
In April 2009, the Washington Post asked 10 writers to make the case for something that deserves to be tossed out as part of "spring cleaning."

Fuck you. It was a temporary moment in time when people decided, for the first time, that 20 women were finally equal to one man.

So is illegally removing illegal tariffs like a double negative that makes it all legal now?
President Donald Trump signed an executive order Friday to get rid of tariffs on a broad swath of commodities, including beef, coffee and tropical fruits — responding to pressure from consumers who complain prices are too high.

Currently reading Karen Russell's The Antidote: "Women like Dottie Iscoe often insist that people like me should feel grateful to them, Son. As if we are lucky to be alive at all in the world that they control. Ask any stone or flower if it feels grateful to be here.
Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard tried and failed to talk to their husband before their arrest. Catherine Parr succeeded.
FDR would famously leave everyone who had a convo with him think he actually agreed with him, Trump is basically the reverse and leaves a conversation agreeing with the last person who spoke to him

I really do think this might be the worst Supreme Court of all time, which is saying something for an institution that coexisted with slavery
These motherfuckers are even worse imo bc they are *also* out here using antebellum reasoning and pursuing antebellum goals but well post bellum!

One day after the toxicity of how much this country hates women was lessened slightly we get this.
A divided Supreme Court ruled that states are allowed to cut off Medicaid money to Planned Parenthood. Here’s how the Supreme Court ruled in other major cases for this term so far.
Supreme Court rules states can cut off Medicaid funding to Planned Parenthood. Here are other major cases the court has ruled on so far. - The Boston Globe
The case centers on funding for other health care services Planned Parenthood provides in South Carolina, but the ruling could have broader implications for Medicaid patients.

LI Dem Rep Laura Gillen who has had some recent Trumpy votes makes anti Mamdani statement.
Gillen also supported Nassau County police working with ICE, which is now the subject of a new lawsuit.

It is imperative to recognize and call out this regime's bigoted identity politics. Their treatment of nonwhite electeds amounts to Taneyism.
To them, these officials hold no authority they are bound to respect. Padilla, McIver, Baraka are merely the latest. They are doing this to POC on purpose.
