All of these new rulings don’t just affect today, they rewrite precedent. Trump still has three years left, and whatever expanded powers the Court hands him now will automatically pass to the next president as well.

Make no mistakes. This is the regime outsourcing its abuses and preparing to disappear political opponents.

They have made the world living hell for no reason whatsoever. People will ask why this happened in a decade and there will be tremendous effort to make it more complicated than “they were evil, stupid, and bored”

Know your rights before you hit the streets. Peaceful protest is protected — but only if you know how to protect yourself legally. Read, share, and stay safe.

History is not a PR campaign. Facts are not a marketing campaign. Truth can't be manipulated & must stay whole & maintain its accuracy.

When you see people erasing history, denying facts, or skewing truth, know that they know what's real, they either cannot handle it or refuse to deal with it.

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.
Neither Neurodivergence Nor Mental Illness Made Them Bigots—They're Just Awful People
It's hard to admit your heroes are jerks, but the mentally ill and neurodivergent shouldn't be collateral damage.

Netanyahu loves Trump's plan to force 2 million people from Gaza & turn it into a billionaires’ Riviera. He calls it "voluntary migration.”

It's not voluntary if you bomb & starve those who stay.

It’s ethnic cleansing. It's a war crime.

No more military aid to Netanyahu.

We’ve had a years-long panic over “free speech” that was mostly left-punching from reactionary centrists mad that students had the gall to question them.

Now, when we are facing with an actual crisis of free-speech loudest voices are quiet.

If the point is to overwhelm, the solution is to be calm & find fixes.
If the intent is to misinform, the solution is finding proven trusted sources for information.
If the goal is to isolate, the solution is to find & cultivate community & work together.

Don’t panic, be the solution.

While I am overjoyed that the recent protests were overwhelmingly peaceful & folks feel inspired & energized,
I am holding space for all of the marginalized folks who saw the lack of force those protesters were met with & remember how we were brutalized for marching & protesting for our lives.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.
