Here's a take. When this is over, we need a completely new constitution. Too much of this was caused by the interpretations of the Supreme Court and the judiciary. Conservatives played a very long game to use the judiciary to get here. We need much more stringent bindings on the executive (1/?).

if you don't want to have sex with someone but they do it anyways, that's rape and you're allowed to call it rape.
even if it's just one act of many you didn't want. even if you wanted it at first and changed your mind. even if you were pressured into saying yes, or not saying no.

Twice in the past two weeks, subs asked me how I felt about aftercare because they don't receive it often but they like it when they do.
Y'all, *please* make your partners agree to aftercare beforehand and hold them to that. You deserve partners that respect you and your needs. 🫂💜

This is a replaceable cog in the machine of their cruelty. If they are competent, he will be replaced by someone who is better at the PR. But do not be mistaken, he is nowhere near the worst of this problem. This is a PR move by the administration to try and regain ground.
BREAKING Greg Bovino has been removed as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will return to El Centro Calif, where he is expected to retire soon. A stunning turnaround after Pretti killing. Bovino's traveling blue city crackdown is over www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Sorry, I feel uncomfortable with the way some people celebrate the demotion of Bovino or the potential firing of Noem as big wins.
You can't reform ICE. Abolishing ICE is the moderate position. That's the smallest win we should accept.

When outraged Germans protested over Aktion T4 in 1941, the Nazi government officially shut down the program. It continued unofficially until the fall of the Nazi government.
Don't take your eyes off of ICE if they back off their current tactics or fire more leaders in the face of mass protest.

Scheming vizier type energy. "Moderate" Republicans really need to come to terms with the fact that this isn't just Stephen Miller whispering in the President's ear. There is an institutional rot at the core of the Party. Vance will not save the party either. He has been even more belligerent.
Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) on CNN: “I think the death of Americans, what we're seeing on TV, it's causing deep concerns over federal tactics and accountability. Americans don't like what they're seeing right now. … [Trump’s] getting bad advice right now.”

But I need folks to understand that if they can see themselves in Alex Pretti or Renee Good, and they haven't been able to see themselves in Philando Castille or Breonna Taylor?
If it feels different, now?
I need you to examine that.
It's not an accusation. I'm glad you're here with us now.

once the people of america embrace solidarity and unity against our oppressors, the billionaire pedophile class, we will have liberty and security FOR ALL.
but we can only do it if we unite, and stop dividing ourselves along lines of race and sex and background. we have to pull together, all of us.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

I think the fascists want to be allowed to kidnap children, brutalize and disappear people of color, and gun down innocent people like they're already doing

I have watched the video of today’s murder several times and I am here to assure you that there were several agents restraining the victim when he was shot, and there is no way they were worried he was going to shoot one. Even if he had a gun, and I think that’s not true, he was not free to use it.

Policing as an institution must be abolished at every level. You can't reform a system that allows local PD to brutalize marginalized people, and you can't reform one that allows federal police to execute people in the streets.

I don’t think we should be using words like “innocent” or “US citizen” or “bystander” or things like that because — what if someone was an undocumented immigrant with a criminal record? Would they deserve this? No one deserves to be executed on the street in cold blood.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

I generally don't get involved in these things, but this feels much bigger to me than petty discourse: Nerdskull constantly endangers trans people, especially transfems, by engaging extremely harmful transmisogynistic stereotypes. There are lines you do not cross, and they cross them constantly.
