NEW: The Department of Homeland Security comes to an agreement with four GOP-led states to redesign its federal immigration database to serve voter “verification” purposes — an unprecedented use of federal data that could supercharge wrongful purges.

This is white supremacist, great replacement Nazi shit coming out of the mouth of the U.S. vice president.
"Europe is on the brink of civilizational suicide," US Vice President Vance told Fox News. "Countries don’t control borders, restrict free speech. If Germany takes in millions more incompatible migrants, it’ll destroy itself. America can’t save it."

BREAKING: Trump and Republicans say they’ll focus their efforts on defeating Native American candidate Deb Haaland, who is running for governor of New Mexico.

She has protected sacred lands and stood up to bullies. It’s obvious why they want her to lose.

This struck me as the perfect distillation of JD Vance. He is a shockingly incurious and unserious guy who has faked his way into the center of power and now thinks he’s the smartest guy in the room.
Still processing the fact that Zelensky asked Vance “Have you ever actually been to Ukraine?” and his response was that he’s watched and seen some videos.

I think they will try to privatize all utilities and energy, ultimately. And they are testing the steps to get there. They're corporate cucks and authoritarians. They're rapists who are mad rape is illegal, so they want to change the laws. They want feudalism, dawg
Florida Power & Light, the state’s largest utility, is seeking a nearly $9 billion hike to customers’ base rates over four years, a sum that affordability advocates said represents the largest rate hike request in U.S. history.
Florida Power & Light seeks a $9B rate hike. It may be largest request in U.S. history
As part of the request, which was filed to state regulators Friday, FPL is also seeking a rate of shareholder profit with a midpoint of 11.9% — well above the national average.

Republicans are trying to strike down Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act the same way they dismantled Section 5 in Shelby County v. Holder. They want Congress to explain whether racism still exists.

Musk & his co-President Trump not only want to cut funding for Social Security, they want to dismantle the agency all together. Trusk want to fire up to 30k employees & close offices not only in GA but across the country. I will not stand by & let this happen.

My latest piece for @teenvogue.com delves into the horrific story of popular skincare ingredient Retin-A.

Before Retin-A was approved by the FDA in 1971, it had been tested on hundreds of incarcerated Black people in Philadelphia, without their informed consent. The survivors still bear the scars.
The miraculous wrinkle-erasing, acne-fighting cream, is the result of decades of horrifying medical abuse.

Retin-A was developed through tests on incarcerated people.

This is a slap in the face to American women.

Pete Hegseth has a track record of disrespecting women service members, and multiple credible sexual assault allegations.

52 years ago, Roe v. Wade secured the reproductive rights women fought for. In 2022, Dobbs overturned it & 22 states restricted our freedoms.

2 days ago, Trump took down reproductiverights.gov. But @reprocaucus.bsky.social will continue to share abortion resources. Your body, your choice!
