Four U.S. citizen children were detained in an ICE raid—zip-tied, separated, held for hours. Imagine if these were your precious little ones! Can you close your eyes to this depravity? Please don't. Remember If this could happen to these little kids, it can happen to yours. Speak out now!

An Andrew Tate and Charlie Kirk fan just murdered two teenage girls. In a livestream now taken down he claimed they had made fun of Charlie Kirk's death. This is the real world consequences of the hate and misogyny the right promotes while claiming the left is violent.

important for us in the US to note: even a solidly right wing government can't ignore this.

feds just gassed the cops in chicago.

More than 450 lawsuits filed by people who say they were sexually assaulted as kids and teens in NYC juvenile detention centers have been tossed by a judge due to a 'flaw' in the City's law. Survivors are rallying right now at City Hall for the law to be fixed.

Israel is an evil terrorist state. No state has a right to exist, especially Israel.

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

Our friend, poet and activist @sarahmaintains.bsky.social has been illegally detained by the IDF and is being held in an Israeli jail. There are reports of mistreatment and human rights violations. Please keep pressure on the Irish government and embassy to secure the release of Sarah and others. 🇵🇸🇮🇪

Look at this leader. Lift her up.

Judge: "I don’t know why I can’t get a straight answer from you. Are you aware of an unfreezing of the disbursement of funds for those contracts and agreements that were frozen before Feb. 13?" DOJ lawyer: "I’m not in a position to answer that."

It’s a little more difficult to find an audience now that I’m off Substack, so could you share with friends who like books and shit-talking?

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this. The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

David Eng at his most incisive. "...Eng upends previous assumptions about what reparation is, showing how the very category of the human is structured by whether subjects are worthy of reparation. A brilliant, creative, learned, and utterly compelling book.” - Leti Volpp, UC Berkeley School of Law

this is going to ban trans folx from traveling

Reminder to the NYT: there is no "transgender debate"- trans people are real and always have been- for an article about language choices I wish they would look at their own. They could reframe as How many human rights should the American people have?

The Justice Department’s decision to drop charges against Eric Adams only deepens public distrust in our institutions, because no one, not even a mayor, should be above the law. Trump may think this buys him access to terrorize our communities, but NYers always stand up for one another.

please be an independent press, PLEASE, do not "align your editorial standards"

Musk is lying about us federal workers We're not the ones screwing over the American people, he is

Rally for trans kids - so many amazing kids spoke! thank you #actup @genderlib.com #transformativeschools

Yesterday over 7,000 people showed up to support trans kids- and I said a few words about care being “paused” last week.

Choosing Politics and Profits over Patients, Parents, and Providers is doing harm.

Thank you @melissagiragrant.com newrepublic.com/article/1910...

Most importantly , GENDER AFFIRMING HEALTHCARE SAVES LIVES. Here is a list, courtesy @glaad - of all of the medical associations that support trans kids glaad.org/medical-asso...
