Democrats have to oppose the US getting dragged into war with Iran. It's the right thing to do substantively, politically, but above all morally.

Actions have consequences and Trump is dealing with the consequences of tearing up the Iran Deal for no reason except his hatred of Obama.

Even if you (wrongly) believe that some immigrants lack due process rights, what’s to stop the government from claiming that *you* are an undocumented immigrant; removing you to El Salvador; citing an “administrative error”; and refusing to do anything to bring you back?

The answer is due process.

For "One First," me on the good (a commitment to *meaningful* pre-removal judicial review); the bad (making relief for those already removed much harder); and the ugly (throwing Chief Judge Boasberg under the bus) in #SCOTUS's 5-4 Alien Enemy Act ruling:

140. The Disturbing Myopia of Trump v. J.G.G.
In normal times, it might be possible to defend the Supreme Court's 5-4 ruling on Monday vacating a pair of temporary restraining orders in the Alien Enemy Act case. But these aren't normal times.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

I, for one, welcome the “abundance” fight. It shows the left can fight Trumpism while wrestling with how we can be better than we’ve been.

I have no interest in “actually the government has been doing great” liberalism.

If an Army private accidentally texted the details of a classified military operation to a reporter, let alone transmitted any classified information to anyone who was unauthorized over an unsecured device, they’d be charged and likely spend time in Leavenworth.

But it’s Hegseth, so probably not.

63 studies: women who assert their ideas, make direct requests, and advocate for themselves are liked less.

They're also less likely to get hired—and it hasn't improved over time.

When will we stop punishing women for violating outdated gender stereotypes?

BREAKING: As Elon Musk said on X would be happening, I can now report that all federal employees are receiving an email directing them to provide “approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week.”

It directs them not to send any classified information and is due by 11:59p Monday.

They have no problem with DEI when they send military recruiters to minority communities to enlist young people... but the National Society of Black Engineers and the Society of Women Engineers Club is a bridge too far.

Jimmy Carter Appreciation 🧵:

As we mourn Carter's death, there will be lots of discussion of his presidency and his post-presidential exploits, including his work with @habitatforhumanity.bsky.social and the @cartercenter.bsky.social.
