Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it. He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted. Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Irish President-Elect Catherine Connolly received the most votes, ever, in a presidential election & won by a landslide. She’s known for her support of ppl with disabilities, the Irish language, LGBTQ ppl & equal rights. She’s the third woman president. She’s also a respected feminist. #Aras25

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Gov. Pritzker has said all the right things, but now he needs to act and get these state troopers out of there.

Can we please keep Kristi Noem far far away from the Puppy Bowl?

My take on the TNC Ezra thing is that one person sounds like a real human being, the other sounds like a DNC AI that’s desperately concerned it will retrained by its overlords.

This is important enough to switch my vote from @jocelynbenson.bsky.social to @garlingilchrist.bsky.social

I know this conflates ambition with principle because people of principle don’t hire Lis Smith

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

Hakeem Jeffries voted for Charlie Kirk Day but still isn’t sure if he’ll endorse Zohran Mamdani. This is why the approval rating of the Democratic Party is lower than Trump’s or the GOP.

So, is there more to Kamala’s new book than her just admitting all the bad decisions she made?

Trans rights are human rights!

Thanks, we’re good.

Witnesses Assumed Charlie Kirk Shooter Was Just Ordinary Gunman On School Campus

Why did @theonion.com stop posting the “No Way To Prevent This,” story? Or did I miss it??

The problem with allowing guns everywhere is that no one is safe anywhere.

Immense depravity, moral decay, shitty AI image of a movie he’s never seen, based on book he’s never read, the Heart of Darkness is perfectly on brand.

An analysis of new campaign finance filings found that multiple billionaires and companies such as Airbnb and DoorDash have funneled more than $19 million into PACs with names such as 'Fix the City, Inc.' and 'Affordable New York' that support Cuomo or oppose Mamdani.

Unspeakably horrible, and somehow also horribly familiar. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Will the vote Kamala anyway people still say it’s the fault of “purity test” voters, not the party literally doing everything in their power to lose elections?

Nailed it.

Rudy Giuliani is this close to setting up a press conference at the Ritz Cracker Barrel.

Let’s hope no strings attached, i.e. no expectation of Sheffield endorsing Duggan for Governor.

This is the way. cc: Detroit

Since @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is so concerned about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social housing maybe he should address his own property tax bill of just $213 a year thanks to a sweetheart deal he supported when he served in the state Assembly that will last through 2032. nypost.com/2022/01/23/r...

Maybe stop asking politicians if they would recognize a Palestinan state and ask if they will recognize their humanity? Ask a political question get a political answer.

Shukran Representative Clark.

Here’s the photo of Netanyahu that Philippe Sands mentioned in this @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social episode. It’s from a 2019 Time Magazine story. Details in the second image. It would all be so shocking if that were even still possible. #gaza #EastWestStreet

Mayor Pete can tell you about his disqualifying positions on Trans rights and Palestine in seven languages.

Understand that Israel assassinated Anas Al-Sharif after approving the plan to invade Gaza City. They knew he would not leave the city and would cover the assault and killed him ahead of it. Let’s just be very clear here.

Democrats attempting to justify their position (or lack of one) on Gaza in town halls sounds exactly like Republicans trying to justify the Big Beautiful Bill in theirs. How do they not realize this?

Voter in Iowa asks Ruben Gallego if he and the Democratic Party will support those advocating for Palestinians. Gallego says “The people of Gaza are in this situation because Donald Trump is President.” Voters point out Biden was president too. Gallego: “Whatever, hey this is your opinion dude.”

A new Gallup poll shows American support for Israel has hit another low, following the March finding that most Americans held negative views of Israel. Only 32% overall approved of Israel’s actions in Gaza, mostly Republican voters. Among Democrats, approval was 8%. 1/5

I know this sounds crazy, but imagine members of congress with the basic morality of Ms. Rachel.

So, gazpacho!?

we know what solves homelessness: more housing we know what solves medical debt: universal healthcare I'm 48 years old and I've never heard a single pundit say this on national/corporate TV fuck yes.

I would love to see @mehdirhasan.bsky.social interview the Michigan Senate candidates: @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social, @rephaleystevens.bsky.social, @abdulelsayed.bsky.social together at some point ahead of the primary. #MehdiToMichigan let’s do it!

So important: Open letter to Columbia Pres. Claire Shipman. riseupcolumbia.substack.com/p/open-lette...

Eleven more libraries will reopen on Sundays, thanks to the leadership of the City Council. They never should've been closed in the first place. As Mayor, I'll end this absurd budget dance that keeps our beloved libraries in limbo year after year.

Today is primary day in Detroit! Vote Vote Vote !
