Conservatives rebranded bigotry and every time the media uses “wokeness” as a euphemism they are helping a movement that it quite literally erasing the history marginalized people’s role in American life.

Section 1 of the executive order is like "in order for this to mean anything, Congress must act." The rest of it is like "X department shall convene a task force to provide a list of recommendations etc. etc." It's completely toothless and this "blocking states" headline is brain-dead stenography.
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that blocks states from enforcing their own regulations around artificial intelligence and instead aims to create a "single national framework" for AI. https://cnn.it/49chVwf

The right’s preferred gender ideology—one of male supremacy, women’s exclusion from dignity, citizenship, and vast spheres of public life, and an enforced heterosexuality of eroticized domination—is much more prescriptive, aggressive, and ubiquitously pushed than anything coming from trans people.
Conservatives have their own "gender ideology" they are pushing constantly, and it's one that's built on coercion and treating women like property.

helps to think about the details like any regular crime you'd see on one of the 800 cop shows that run on TV constantly: these guys committed one set of murders, thought it over, and then decided to kill the witnesses as part of the coverup. mention of drugs is just jingling keys at this point

I think it should be a bigger deal that before Trump made him a life-tenured appeals court judge, Emil Bove was at DOJ taking the position that the White House should do war crimes
Report: Trump’s Most Corrupt, Least Qualified Judge Was Also an Enthusiastic Proponent of Extrajudicial Killings
Yet another reason for Senate Democrats to impeach Emil Bove the moment they take back the upper chamber.

i'd say it did. the public put a group of thieves, vandals and extremists in office last november and they promptly went about destroying everything that might work to limit their ability to loot, steal and inflicting pain on the people they hate
This whole NYT account about the weaponization of DOJ is beyond disturbing. Kinda feels like the US government fell in January.

I can reassure the New York Times that networks of mutual protection, and misogynist retaliation efforts that benefit abusive men at the expense of the young women they prey upon, are very much still intact post-Me Too.
This is nauseating: “As the emails stretch through the years, they show how that protected realm vanished into the mists of time, pulled under by the rising forces of the internet and the #MeToo movement.” A “Gone With the Wind” framing for sexual abuse and harassment.
Seriously, what is wrong with these people?

Kind of crazy that evidence is mounting that the world is run by a group of rapists, pedophiles, and men convinced of women’s inmate natural inferiority, and the pundit class is trying to convince us that the real social crisis is that men are victimized and lonely because women have too many jobs.
You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique
Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

The federal shutdown is now about to affect millions of people who use SNAP - the food stamp program - and those same people cannot afford their energy bills. To get every dollar in people's pockets to go to food, not utility corporations, we need an emergency ban on shutoffs.
If you're looking for an action to take tomorrow that can help protect millions of people regardless of their immigration status, call your governor to demand a ban on utility shutoffs this winter. Every state has slightly different policy– we got you covered.
Here's your guide to fighting utility shutoffs this winter. W/o the gov't open, few to no states will have funds for emergency bill payment program LIHEAP.

The subtle implication that Trump v. U.S. has always been law and that a president's official acts weren't considered prosecutable when Smith started is disgustingly dishonest.
You’ve gotta be kidding me.
This WaPo editorial presents a misleading revisionist history of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s criminal cases against Trump.
Then it has the gall to compare that to Trump’s overt targeting of his perceived enemies.
