You are witnessing the normalization of fascism right in your face. You are seeing the media’s “unbiasedness” sanitize fascism by giving these people the benefit of the doubt. These are not “Nazi-like”, these are Nazis. Beware the rhinoceros, before it’s too late.

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional.
This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on!
Huge win for trans people in MT!

I don’t normally do midday posts like this one, and I am sorry for another post, but Donald Trump’s most recent remarks warrant it.

Utah Republicans want to ban Pride flags in schools but are fine with allowing Nazi flags to fly. Let that sink in.

I’ve been thinking about all the challenges and how I get through it.
I usually don’t share much and stay reserved. My smile hides my pain and very few people know what is reality.
But this is the reality of how we go far.

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!
Okay what is going on here. Are the accounts at a private banking entity? Does the federal government have direct debit permission set up? So many questions as to how Treasury instructed this payment. (Via NY Post’s Craig McCarthy)
