Rep. Joyce Beatty, an ex-officio member of the Kennedy Center's board, has sued the admin over the attempt to add Trump's name to the building — arguing that renaming would require an act of Congress since the original name was established through legislation signed into law.

She didn't "cite" the Bible. Citations require referencing specific passages relevant to the topic. Writing "the Bible says..." is not a citation.
The teacher was fired for being trans and daring to apply academic standards to a transphobe's transphobic submission. THAT should be in the headline.

Having encountered little resistance here in the U.S., the Trump regime is now weaponizing the “censorship” narrative globally, for example by rescinding travel visas for people at organizations combating hate speech in Europe.

From 2022-2024, the right trolled, threatened, ran hit pieces on partisan media, filed lawsuits, & launched congressional investigations against researchers as they spun a conspiracy theory about a “censorship industrial complex”. Now they are weaponizing that narrative w/ the power of the U.S. gov.

After Jan 6, the U.S. far right had to find a frame that could distract and shift blame from their election fraud lies. They settled on “censorship” — which made their lying villains into “free speech” heroes, and allowed them to target all of the people and orgs that tried to hold them to account.

The rich and powerful don’t get their wages garnished when they default on a loan. They declare bankruptcy and end up paying pennies on the dollar, if anything. Like Trump did many, many times.

When the Nazis came to power in 1933, the German constitution guaranteed freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Through decrees and laws, the Nazis abolished these civil rights and destroyed German democracy. Starting in 1934, it was illegal to criticize the Nazi government.

I think deporting implies that a person is being sent back to the place that they are from. So - unless she's being transported to like Owings Mills or something - I think the word is "trafficked"

This means the VA won't cover abortions EVEN in the case of rape, incest, or serious threat to the health of the patient.
The DOJ memo was authored by Josh Craddock, one of the chief legal advocates for fetal personhood, i.e. imposing a nationwide abortion ban through the courts.

THIS is why. When crime goes up, media trips over itself to report it.

I count 10 cities in 2025 that are on track to have the fewest murders since at least 1970. Newark is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1956 (though only have data through Oct this year) and San Francisco is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1942.
