Today, the Supreme Court will hear arguments in Chiles v. Salazar, a landmark case on conversion therapy. The case centers on a challenge to Colorado’s law that bans therapists from promising young people they can change their sexual orientation or gender identity if they just “try hard enough.”

FACT: Every major medical and mental health association in the country condemns conversion therapy and supports efforts to protect youth from the practice.

Our statement on the anniversary of October 7 and the ongoing genocide in Gaza: indivisible.org/statements/i...

WE MOURN ALL VICTIMS OF VIOLENCE, AND DEMAND JUSTICE AND PEACE.

Today, on the second anniversary of the horrific attacks of October 7th, we grieve for the victims and for all who lost loved ones. We continue to call for the immediate release of all remaining hostages. Violence against civilians is not and can never be justified.

Two years later, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's far-right government has weaponized that tragedy to carry out a campaign of collective punishment -a genocide -against the people of Gaza. The ongoing siege of Gaza City has trapped civilians in rubble and dire hunger. Roads have been blocked, hospitals destroyed, and food and medicine restricted to a trickle. This is not defense. It is annihilation.

The deliberate destruction of Gaza is a moral catastrophe - one happening on our dime. The United States continues to supply weapons and political cover to Netanyahu's government. That complicity must end.

We refuse the false choice between condemning an horrific attack and condemning genocide. We can - and must - do both. True justice means no double standards. It recognizes the equal value of every life. It is a commitment to protecting every civilian, rejecting collective punishment, and demanding accountability for every crime committed.

On this anniversary, we remember every innocent life lost - Israeli and Palestinian alike. We mourn all victims of violence, and demand justice and peace. Real safety will never come from mass killing or collective punishment. It comes from equality, accountability, and humanity.

“Never before have we issued a joint public warning like this. But the profound, immediate and unprecedented threat that Kennedy’s policies and positions pose to the nation’s health cannot be ignored.”

Opinion | Six surgeons general: It’s our duty to warn the nation about RFK Jr.

We took an oath to declare dangers when we found them. We’re doing that again today.

The National Guard is designed to serve neighbors and communities. Active Duty is a federal force without that local connection. Blurring those lines—by federalizing the National Guard or dropping active-duty soldiers into cities—turns a community-based force into a political weapon.

Hmm. We were still fighting in Afghanistan during Trump’s first term. How come we didn’t win “easy” then? Why did Trump sign a one-sided agreement with the Taliban that allowed them to take over?

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 2d

Trump: "The problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would've won easy. We would've won Afghanistan easy. We would've won every war easy. But we got politically correct. 'Oh, let's take it easy.' We're not politically correct anymore, just so you understand."

Here's the ADL description of how the Moon Man is a neo-Nazi, white supremacist symbol.

Here's the Moon Man in a video just posted by the US Department of Homeland Security today.

Trump's administration, of course, just cut ties with the ADL.

End the unconstitutional, unaccountable acts by ICE & CBP using secret police tactics. Misusing people should result in dismissal and forfeiture of any bonuses or benefits.

ICE is too dangerous to be left unaccountable.
Violence & abuse against Americans is wrong.

If you see an incident occurring, get out your cellphone. Document it. Send it to your Congressperson and the press. Do it anonymously if you need to. #BeTheChange
