begging people to stop framing Exec Orders as laws by saying things like “banned Gender Affirming Care for Minors” (or people under 18) or whatever. that’s not what happened.
A ban on federal funding was announced, and cowards at these institutions complied in advance and we need to always say so.

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM.
I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

The sheer absurdity of thinking that fascists somehow give a shit whether it’s against the law.
Whether they’re able to do it has nothing to do with the law, and everything to do with resistance.

lots of folks saying things like, "the government won't be able to revoke your passport for no reason, that's against the law!"
I help people fight unlawful government decisions for a living. please believe me when I say that the government routinely breaks the law and they mostly get away with it.
