The pink triangle was originally used in Nazi Germany.

Gay men and trans women imprisoned in concentration camps were forced to wear a downward-pointing pink triangle to identify them as 'sexual deviants'. An estimated 15,000 were sent to camps.

Most would not survive.

Crockett: “I’m tired of the white tears. If you’re competent you’re not concerned. When you compare me to Greene/Boebert there’s no comparison… The only ppl crying are mediocre white boys beaten out by people that had to work much harder.”

In case you took a 20-minute nap and missed it, apparently America is now going to be invading and seizing Gaza and holding it permanently according to co-president Trump, which (someone check me on this) pretty sure is unilateral war and therefore a war crime

No executive order has the power or the right to tell you who you are. F*ck that noise. Surround yourself with love, and when you’re ready, get back in this fight.

We need you. 🫶🏽

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

New on MSNBC: Vice President Harris will fly back to Los Angeles today with an all-female U.S. Air Force crew — the first time an all-female crew has operated a C-33.
 
Upon landing, Harris will visit a local fire station and then distribute food to community members impacted by the wildfires.

Look at the crowds assembled for the Trump Inauguration.

My error: these are protestors.

Don't let Donald Trump extending the TikTok ban distract you from the fact that his Administration is about to conduct mass deportations across America in a matter of days.

The people who want to invade Greenland are the same ones who think it’s too cold to go outside for an inauguration.

Protest crowds are the biggest crowds that traitorous fuck will ever get.

Since we’re all talking about Greenland and Canada now would be a good time to remind people that Puerto Rico and Washington, DC actually should be added as the 51st and 52nd states.

I wish the higher prices were ONLY going to affect the idiots who voted for the guy who promised to bring prices down, but is now saying "It's hard to bring things down once they're up."

We'll just have to settle for the satisfaction of yelling "WE FUCKING TOLD YOU SO" at those morons.

I just ran into the main plaintiff and their family in the hallway of the Supreme Court in the skrimetti case today, and we all hugged and now I’m in tears in the press room.

I thanked them profusely.

Trans people deserve equal protection. We deserve to live like anyone else.

When men rage, they blow and shoot things up and start wars.

When women rage, we create.

We knit, do embroidery and cross stitch. We create new things ... while we figure out how to fix the broken things.
