More than 450 lawsuits filed by people who say they were sexually assaulted as kids and teens in NYC juvenile detention centers have been tossed by a judge due to a 'flaw' in the City's law.

Survivors are rallying right now at City Hall for the law to be fixed.

Over 450 Claims of Sex Abuse of Teens in City Custody Thrown Out Due to 'Flaw' in City Council Law

The ruling could also end some Epstein sex-trafficking cases. Survivors are rallying Tuesday for the law to be amended.

These posts from @andr3wsky.bsky.social on threads (I checked to see if he also posted here but he didn't) were actually hard to read, because Black folks have said this *so* often and been argued *down* about it, reading someone say it as a 💡 feels damn near insulting. But maybe ppl will listen

"As a white leftist, I need you all to know that for a good number of white leftists, the idea of suffering is purely academic. They know, even if they don’t acknowledge it, that their privilege insulates them from harm. This allows them to treat the suffering of others like a thought experiment.

Why are they so obsessed with finding the “perfect candidate”? Simply because they can be. They will not be the ones to suffer if an imperfect one loses. So whether *others suffer becomes a game to them"

Notice how all of the things Johnson said the American people will go without are already things they are going without...because of the Trump administration.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hold on a second. Answer the question. As Speaker, do you believe it's appropriate to use American cities as training grounds for the military, calling those people 'the enemy within'?

JOHNSON: I'm not comment on your characterization of what the president said.
