I have reliably canvassed and given to Democrats. From here on out, I only support primary challengers, preferably Working Family Party or democratic socialists. Jeffries and Schumer must be removed.

Fascism’s ultimate goal is to roll back all progress and recreate a state where a select few control everything, including our reality.

What you’re feeling living under this criminal regime is a preview of what kind of world they want us to live in.

Only deeply sick societies spend obscene amounts on chains, cages, walls, and all-seeing cameras as opposed to stuff that fosters beauty, joy, health, people who can think, and a natural world capable of sustaining it all.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

In other words, the judge basically said that to get the hospital to comply with state law would potentially risk the closure of the hospital due to loss of medicaid funding. It effectively means that the federal government through extrajudicial threats has abrogated state anti discrimination law.

A group of families sued Colorado children's hospital for violating state anti discrimination law for stopping provision of gender affirming care under threats by the Trump admin. The court found they violated state law but found the risks to the hospital too large.

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women."

Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration.

It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women.

Whenever you read a horrifying list like this about people who are critically ill or died in ICE concentration camps it’s important to remember that these are just the stories that got out because they were lucky enough to have lawyers who could tell their stories.
