BREAKING: The House of Representatives passed a bill that would criminalize gender-affirming care for transgender youth under 18 and put doctors in prison for providing this care.

This bill is an unjustifiable threat to the well-being of trans youth and their families. The Senate must reject it.

This is the town where I teach. I love the creativity in this protest to call attention to Home Depot’s indifference to ice raids rounding up day laborers on its property. This is the Home Depot where a man died fleeing 🧊.

Day laborer organizers protest Home Depot, pressuring it to "scrape ICE out of their stores."
Over one hundred community members gathered at the Home Depot in Monrovia Saturday to pressure the company to stop the immigration raids taking place at its locations.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

If the Democrats had a hair on their ass they would start a nationwide campaign where they had commercials showing all the Republicans convicted of sex scandals plus the emails with they’re not like us playing in the background.

Apples-to-apples, the Clinton email server dump had so much boring, banal email compared to this. But that didn't stop Trump and the GOP from running around in 2016 like it was Watergate. Other lesson: the news media has/had no discernible methodology for document dumps and proportional coverage.
Wild to watch playbook run cover for this particular Trump scandal

So enraging that the emails from the school district are "here's how you can get food" and "here's how we're protecting students from ICE."

What barbarity, a breach into which underpaid teachers and administrators are stepping in as best they can.

Let a crown be placed thereon, by which the world may know, that so far as we approve of monarcy, that in America the law is King. For as in absolute governments the King is law, so in free countries the law ought to be King; and there ought to be no other.
