they’re learning that you can rape and sexually assault multiple women, brav about it, and still get elected to be President twice while the media fawns all over you because you’re good for their business model

In a leaked recording, State Senator Elena Parent (D-42) said she’d vote for Republican transgender healthcare bans because trans rights are too “unpopular."

A pathetic and humiliating walkback from the would-be destroyers of CFPB, who know they've lost in court and can't kill the agency.
This email from Mark Paoletta went to employees today. It neglects Vought's Feb 10 "stop-work" email that superseded it, ending all activity with no exceptions.

Trump calling himself a king and mocking up a fake magazine cover to boot because he triumphed over a single county's infrastructure policy is a perfect example of the distance between what he actually is and what he wants so desperately to be.

I was waiting for this to happen when they said that all the “National Monuments will be under review”.

This is so wrong.

Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, two Trans women of colour, were among the first (and others!) that kickstarted a global movement of equality and human rights here.

‼️ The National Park Service has REMOVED mentions of transgender people being involved with Stonewall. Not only did the remove the world "Transgender" but changed "LGBTQ+" to "LGBQ+".

The federal government is attempting to erase us and take away our history.

This pride, we riot.

When the president, on every issue, says that he will decide what he is allowed to do under the Constitution and nobody else, every appointee and member of his party obeys because they are either corrupt or afraid of him, and SCOTUS has given him immunity, you have an autocracy.

So he's implying poor elementary school kids should get jobs to pay for their own school lunches?

"No, that's not what I'm saying!"

Sometimes, these ambitious men show the worst kind of cowardice.

Right? Can an 18 yr old get breast implants or a nose job? Can they take birth control? Or is it just trans people that make them feel icky. I hate this.

I feel like there’s not enough attention being paid to the fact that Trump’s trillion dollar funding freeze was an attempt to do McCarthyism via Presidential fiat, & in the name of combatting a phantom force identified solely by a vague propaganda term the right only started using about 5 years ago.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall.

They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+.

Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them.

I think about it a lot in moments like this.

One of my fourth graders asked a friend if he and his family wanted to live at his house since they are scared of the cold men coming to their house.

The cold men are ICE.

"By this somewhat Nietzschean calculation, supplements help the healthy (thus: good),

whereas drugs are a corporate conspiracy to entrap the weak (thus: bad).

Although this is certainly a simplistic worldview, it might hold appeal for some young men who are looking for a model of masculinity."

You’re right that the $1T drop is not nothing.

The problem is that the $1T gain WAS nothing. It was fake.

Fake bubbles make real losses.
