"The reason you should care about this is not that it could happen to you but that it is already happening to others. It is happening to people who, we claim, have rights just because we are human. It is happening to me, personally."

Emma Hayes talked to a few of us about her strategic vision for the WNT. I was expecting some sort of long term tactical plan. What we got: dismantling the male bias of U.S. Soccer.

"...a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power."

Ask not what the Democrats can do for you.
Ask what you can do for democracy.
A thought.
Many of us are wondering why the Democrats are not taking a more vocal and hard stand?

Maybe they’re wondering why we’re not marching outside the GSA, protesting the hijacking of our private information and that of our government by a private citizen.

Maybe we all need to get moving.

A new era of government censorship has begun.
It started with the silencing of scientific speech, when the admin blocked release of research on bird flu. But MAGA has also cracked down on other wrongthink—on race, geography (!), and of course Trump himself

“Some DEI programs are ham fisted and, frankly, stupid and self defeating. But there is also no evidence at all that the program had any role to play in the crash. And insisting it did is disrespectful of the FAA, the victims of the crash, and their families.”

Say what you want about Biden, he’s not out there claiming he actually won the election and sending a mob to the US Capitol to “fight like Hell” or they won’t have a country anymore. Republicans rightly condemned Trump on this day in 2021. He was unfit then. He is unfit now.
