How many Texan women have died of sepsis because they can't get an abortion due to Christian zealotry?

How many Texan women have died from Muslim terrorist actions?

How many Texan children have been sexually assaulted by Christian officiants?
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said that Muslims are a “threat to our freedom” on Tuesday as he targeted the largest Muslim civil rights organization in the U.S. with a foreign terrorist organization label in an escalation of a movement of anti-Muslim hate in the state.
Abbott Says Muslims Are “Threat to Our Freedom” as He Targets Civil Rights Group With Terrorist Designation
Governors do not have the authority to designate groups as a foreign terrorist organization.

The women doing birth citizenship tourism (which was fewer than 200/year) were primarily Russian and Byelorussian, often the mistresses or children of government officials or oligarchs.

They had bank accounts set up in the baby's name and SSN to launder money with.
It’s funny that Stephen Miller mentions “the boys at Normandy” because I would bet a significant percentage of the Americans who fought in World War II were the children of immigrants. That was the case in my family.

This is my new favorite image because it perfectly encapsulates the concern trolling and crybullying from the right when you give them even a fraction of what they spew out on a consistent basis.

Expect the various bots to push the shoot down of an India Rafale pretty hard. About how much it sucks, that its expensive garbage, something something France etc

An Indian Rafale shot down a J-10 and China wants you to forget that happened.

Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation.

I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

But "Defund the Police" was too scary.

A judge in Milwaukee was arrested by ICE for offering sanctuary to their target, in her chambers, where she asked them for a warrant.

Which they did not have.
NEW: Among his many anti-democratic actions, Trump has also rolled back efforts to track law enforcement abuses and frozen the DOJ's police misconduct investigations. This places everyone in peril, Democracy Docket contributor @jesspish.bsky.social writes.

For those who observe the Christian faith, may this Easter bring you solace in a trying world. May the emulation of Jesus' ministry touch your hearts, letting you extend grace to the needy, the impoverished, the foreigner among you, frightened of the government some Americans elected.

I give this.

Also on Reddit today, someone thinking that I am apologetic for being a white dude. Nah, friends. I think we all know that being a white dude in the US is pretty great. My sin, if you will, is thinking everyone else should have the same latitude in life that I get just by being a white dude.

RFK Jr. says there are no autistic poets, so we interviewed one.

Hear from Elizabeth McClellan, @popelizbet.bsky.social, an award-winning poet, attorney, and legal educator based in Memphis, Tennessee.

Leaders don't catalyze movements.

Movements give leaders platforms.

AOC and Bernie won't save you from fascism. Protests will. AOC and Bernie ride on the shoulders of what protesters do.

What you do.

They need you more than you need them, and to their credit, they know this.

Show up.

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.

We hammered this time and time again and yet.
