20 ARMED men bust into your home. They claim they’ve got a search warrant.

They make you stand in the rain w/your 3 daughters in their underwear.

They seize your phones, laptops, your cash life savings.

The suspects listed on the warrant? They don’t live there anymore.

The NYT wants you to think universities became dependent on government. This is false.

The government invested in the national research infrastructure by competitive grants to universities. The taxpayers built this. It got us to the moon. Won the Cold War. Created Silicon Valley. Made the McRib.

Just diversify your news sources. The best scoops this year have been from outfits like @wired.com, not the @NYTimes and @teenvogue.com and @damemagazine.bsky.social have been out there doing the work for years now. Without fear or favor as the old Times' saying goes. 9/

Black history isn’t confined to a month—it’s woven into the fabric of American culture every single day. From music to movements, innovation to influence, Black contributions shape the world. Erasing a date on a calendar doesn’t erase history. It’s here. It’s now. It’s always.

Trump, from his Mar-a-Lago country club, slapped a 10% tariff on Canadian energy imports. That means home heating prices are about to go up.

I really hope Dem leadership and the media start screaming about this. But they won’t. Which is one of many reasons why we’re here.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

“If you ask them, Democratic staff, political advisers, lobbyists, and civil rights advocates will admit they hadn’t prepared to defend trans people at the national level right now.”

Good time to reup my story for @rollingstone.com

Donald Trump and Republicans may try to ban funding to companies that perform trans health care. Some fear Democrats won't stop them.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

During the campaign, Trump promised to end gender-affirming care for trans children. Today, he put his plan into action.

Important note: "Children," under the order, includes 18-year-olds.

We might not have much power to fight back right now but we do have the power to help the people harmed by this Administration. Focusing on the power to help keeps me from the despair of it all.

This is the important part! If you submit your application for a gender marker change, you will not receive your passport or your supporting documents back.

All applications for gender marker change are on hold while the State Department changes this policy.

Anyone who now submits an application for a change runs the risk of losing access to their passport and documents while their application is being processed.
