Only 0.26% of adults over 65 identify as transgender in America—historic invisibility made flesh. Trevor Project polling shows 90% of LGBTQ+ youth say recent politics hurt their wellbeing. Nearly half of trans and nonbinary kids' families are considering moving.

Close your eyes. Feel the heat radiating off asphalt in December. That's 14.97°C—the global average for 2025, just 0.01°C cooler than 2023. The eleven goddamn warmest on record. The three-year average just crossed 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

This administration does not obey the law and we should be outraged by this.
It's now been four weeks since the deadline set by law and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

When Democrats folded in the last government shutdown—rescuing the GOP majority from itself and helping them pass a budget, giving validation to the Trump administration’s lawbreaking—the savvy politics knowers explained that folding was clearly worth it because it got the Epstein Files released.
No federal judge has the power or authority to make DOJ comply with the mandatory provisions of the Epstein Act, says Pam Bondi. It's unenforceable and meaningless. Essentially, DOJ is a lawless if not criminal enterprise, not a law enforcement agency, at this point.

Basically saying the DOJ doesn’t need to obey the law. This is now a country of lawlessness

The subpoenas landed Friday like a punch to the gut—Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey now face DOJ grand jury investigations for allegedly obstructing federal immigration enforcement.

This is absolutely accurate. Please verify your news. I have been burned twice by not properly vetting.

the whole Karen concept is being rebranded to "standing up for yourself, others, and all of your rights."

(Gonna need a whole new name for "being racist to children and teens.)
Just channeled my inner Karen and got my apartment leasing office to give me 6 weeks of free rent for re-signing

It also helps that downtown San Diego is like, the one neighborhood in the whole city where new units are constantly being built, and supply is much higher 🙌

they really are; they even were mean to Scott Adams dying. Let's all buy a hard copy People mag sometime in the next couple weeks. It wouldn't take much in the current magazine environment to make a HUGE difference in their bottom line.
I bought a @peoplemag.bsky.social at the checkout for the first time in 20 years. Two reasons:

Fran Drescher yelling, "You can't stop me!"

and the fact they keep doing the work alongside Wired and Teen Vogue (RIP).

Karoline Leavett in her sadistic reading of the Renee Good killing told a reporter:

Yeah, and you are pretending to be a press secretary, but you are a propagandist for a fascist regime.
Just end the "briefings".

So we are at the point where we need to walk around with our “papers”. So sad to see this happen to our country
As President Trump ramped up his threats against the people he is supposed to be working for, his administration’s extreme immigration enforcement led DHS Secretary Noem to admit that anyone — U.S. citizen or otherwise — should be prepared to have to prove their citizenship to DHS agents.
Noem says that virtually anyone could face a Kavanaugh stop
Trump started off the day with an Insurrection Act threat. DHS Sec. Noem followed up by saying that anyone "surrounding" any DHS target has to prove their legal status.

"Worse than Bush after Katrina" is a polling benchmark that I thought that partisan polarization had made impossible
Pollster: 58% of Americans say Trump's second term has been a failure. A year into term number two, Trump's numbers look worse than any other president. Trump is even worse than George W. Bush after Katrina and a long period in the Iraq War. This is really, really bad.

ICE has shot a mother in the face, put a 16-year-old in a chokehold, and permanently blinded at least two protestors — and that’s just some of what we know.

Probably because the messaging is meant for them. They are trying to hire them.
1/2 🧵Some lawmakers, including Rep. Jamie Raskin, have asked DHS and ICE how many pardoned insurrectionists or militia members have been hired…warning recruitment messaging may attract extremists…but agencies have released no names or figures.
