I want to congratulate leading Democrats’ for their insistence on saying the takeover of DC is a “stunt” or a “distraction.”
It’s a rare trifecta of intellectual failure, political stupidity, and moral obtuseness.

I saw another report that it's 13 admins and five players, but regardless, it's awful.
Talking to the Senegalese coach last year at the OQT, he talked about how important it was for the women to experience bigger tournaments so they can dream bigger. And the US stomps on those dreams.

The US has denied the visas of all 12 members of the Senegalese women’s basketball team who were scheduled to travel to the country as part of their preparation for the Afrobasket tournament that begins in August. Afrobasket is also the African qualifiers for the Olympics.

weird how “religious liberty” means freedom from baking a queer cake but not protecting migrants seeking sanctuary

Obviously my heart wanted USC, but the gut said UConn. Very happy for Paige of course. Forever a soft spot for athletes coming back from knee injuries.
That being said, I will never not ride for Dawn.

Just to spell this out: you, too, are not breaking the law. Versions of this could happen to any of us.
NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more.
The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law.
No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

It is National Girls and Women in Sports Day. Trans girls and trans women are girls and women, and should be able to play sports, at all levels, just like anyone else. They should be able to live and love and work and present however they choose. And I will stand in front of them to keep them safe.

Something the "so you think the law means anything now" doomers fail to grasp: the importance of buying time. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, has infinite resources and infinite capacity for managing complexity.

Everyone needs to understand - every hospital withholding healthcare from trans children will do the same to trans adults as soon as the orders come down.
there are no liberal paradises. the only paradise we are awarded in this lifetime is one where every member of our community is seen, heard, and advocated for.
we must stand with trans kids and adults.
