Go ahead. Tell me I'm living in a bubble. I'll just block you.

“look at them trying to rip away healthcare from this tiny population while your bills go up” would be a good message but instead politicians say we’re a “distraction” which is just transphobia in another tongue
Now that Democrats are out of office, it just doesn't have as much resonance. Now, you could easily flip it to say "President Trump cares more about his ballroom than bringing down costs." It's hard to make anti-trans messages stick when coffee and bananas cost more.

If you're in the White House press corps, still showing up to your job every day and not saying anything as Trump attacks your colleagues -- almost always women, I'd add -- then this is on you as well.
Reporter: “Are you committed to releasing the full video?”

Trump: “Didn't I just tell you that?”

Reporter: “You said that it was up to Sec. Hegseth.”

Trump: “You are the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place…You are an obnoxious, actually a terrible reporter.”

Let's call Trump's anti-Somali hate for what it is
It's not "heated" or "divisive." It's Nazi stuff.

This really is grotesque: they went through years-long citizenship processes and are now being denied simply because if the country they are from. It’s formalized bigotry.

To be crystal clear about this: The plaintiffs challenged the Texas law six days *before* it was signed by the Governor and became law. That was *too late*.
We need to talk about the massive loophole that the Supreme Court just carved into election law over the shadow docket—giving states a free pass to enact patently unconstitutional voting rules within nearly *one year* of an election. A stunning new limit on judicial review. slate.com/news-and-pol...

I spent 10 years living in the Phillips neighborhood of Minneapolis which is largely Somali (not Somalian, I don't know what that is). When I was hit by a drunk driver, these neighbors pried open the door to my overturned truck and got me to safety...
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

Trump calls human beings “vermin,” “garbage,” “diseases,” “poison,” and “animals.”

Then, when I rightfully point out that the same dehumanizing language has been used by fascist regimes to justify humanity’s worst atrocities—Republicans lose their minds.

Give me a break.
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."

Mayor Jacob Frey said the city is responding to “a number of credible reports” that as many as 100 federal agents will be deployed to the Twin Cities “with a specific focus on targeting our Somali community."

The New York Times reports that the ICE operation comes as President Donald Trump has used increasingly inflammatory language to attack Somalis in recent days.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

I feel like the last couple decades of "is representation good or not?" discourse missed more important questions of "how fragile is representation?", "what do we do when multiple industries eliminate it as an intentional move against us?" and "how can we sustain queer artists when shit goes south?"
"According to the report, [...]during the 2024-25 television season, queer characters increased across platforms by 4%, bringing the total to 489. However, the Thursday report found that 41% of those characters will not return." www.thewrap.com/glaad-where-...
