Dude is personally responsible for cutting off aid to the poorest people in the world but sure.

Btw, Kat was warning everybody about rightwing Dem donors calling LGBTQ and non-white Americans "The Groups" — and using that term to start throwing marginalized people under the bus — THREE (3!) months ago! This was before she was running. It is crazy how prescient this is.

Hundreds of people have gathered at the local Jewish Community Center for a vigil to support the victims of the firebombing attack in Boulder.

NEW: The Trump administration has obeyed a court order to return a Guatemalan man improperly deported to Mexico in Feburary. His lawyer says he's en route to a detention facility in Arizona. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

The Secretary of Education doesn’t know American history. That’s not failure—it’s strategy. They erased the past so they can control the future. 📕 Erased exposes who’s behind it—and why it works. Read it before they wipe the rest out too: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

Ugh, he just gets better. 😩

I still think this is one of the most gutting notes I’ve ever read.

Cuomo says NYC defunded the police, a thing that literally never happened.

It is amazing how many Dems insist that Dems have done things they absolutely never did, but which Republicans insisted they did.

Thank you, Nick, for standing up for the LGBTQ+ community.

WATCH: “You stand in my church. You promised me.” A Minneapolis pastor confronts the chief of police about helping ICE

I never get tired of watching amoral assholes pander to the Right and still get fucked over by them www.nytimes.com/2025/06/03/u...

Lmao.

The Secretary of Education doesn’t appear to know of Ruby Bridges, a key figure in the history of American school desegregation efforts

NEW: ICE updated its policy for "enforcement actions" in and near courthouses, removing a provision directing officers to ensure they weren't violating state or local laws. @dmehro.bsky.social and @dell.bsky.social have the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-qu...

🚨WOW. It turns out that a "Tren de Aragua gathering" the Trump admin said it broke up in March ... was just a BIRTHDAY PARTY. None of the people arrested at the party seem to have any criminal record — and none have been charged criminally in the months since it happened. Read the story below.

They're literally doing the meme

BREAKING: Chief Judge James Boasberg finds that those people sent to CECOT under the Alien Enemies Act on March 15-16 had their due process rights violates and certifies them as a class. He orders that the government "facilitate" the ability for them to seek habeas relief.

lol the centrism conference is going great. "former" republican josh barro trying to pin down dem electeds on a "unions are bad" message

Speakers at WelcomePAC have mentioned being dunked on by BlueSky posters no less than a dozen times in the first hour alone. This site has broken their brains

“The Holocaust is a hoax” is a diverse viewpoint but “Israel’s actions against Gaza are bad” is terrorism

I watched large portions of this segment and at one point @mattyglesias.bsky.social threw up this slide, said Dems are "making bad press on this issue" and moved on. But the polling is wildly on Dem's side on this one! Opponents of what the Trump admin is doing with him outnumber supporters 2-1!

These consultants are literally just calling minorities and gay people "bad groups" now. If you don't understand this comes down to "let's crank up the racism dial" I simply don't know what to tell you.

this story is just a great illustration of NIMBY nihilism. at core, these people have no vision for anything. they simply oppose change for the sake of opposition. (i also think there is an element of death denial here — if i can prevent all physical changes i can deny the reality of my mortality)

Ah. So, all the attacks on Harvard are supposedly about stopping antisemitism on campus... but they need to hire a holocaust denier in the name of "diversity of viewpoints." Got it.

The Florida Board of Governors has voted against the confirmation of Dr. Santa Ono as the University of Florida's next president

UPDATED: Ono spent much of the meeting dodging direct answers. When pressed on Covid mandates — with the questioner pointing out that as an immunologist, he must have an opinion — he answered: “I’m a mouse doctor. I’m a test tube kind of guy.” www.chronicle.com/article/stat...

There’s an elegant morality tale in all of this. Something something model minorities something something scorpions and crocodiles something something

The New York Times has been misleading readers about the state of youth gender medicine and the evidence behind it for years now. Tomorrow they're releasing a podcast on the topic and there's no reason to believe it will be any better than their previous work.

1/ New in the Abrego Garcia case, the Judge has just granted his lawyers' request for permission to file sanctions against the government, which is very unusual.

NEW: In the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, Judge Xinis grants the plaintiff’s request to file a motion for sanctions. Motion due June 11.

VAN HOLLEN: I'm simply asking you to provide the committee with a reorganization plan, and your response is 'maybe yes, maybe no.' Am I getting that right? LUTNICK: We're going to follow the law VAN HOLLEN: The law requires to you to submit these major changes to the Senate

centrist: we need to focus on popular policy me: holy shit! you mean we’re finally going to support universal healthcare? centrist: no haha not that policy me: ok so…gun control? centrist: no lol not that policy either me: ok which policy? centrist: oh you know the ones

This guy is terrible, he did a terrible thing, I'm Jewish and there's no question in my mind that it was a hate crime. ICE is not the right agency to be involved and normalizing the use of ICE for this type of law enforcement task is terrifying. ICE is terrible and we should get rid of it.

i am simply floored to learn this about a guy who held a nazi rally at madison square garden eight months ago

Jonathan Joss' lifelong friend Robert Rios confirms that he had been the victim of a homophobic attack (and that it had been ongoing) despite the San Antonio police stating there's no evidence of a hate crime

If they are not wearing masks they are impersonating other people.

a refusal that was on wild display in NYC today: hellgatenyc.com/unsettled-an...

thus has been escalating for years now at the federal, state and local levels. covering badges, refusing to provide names, procedural and legislative obstructions to FOIA requests. they don’t want you to know who they are.

They tried lie about an ICE presence. MPD assisted with closing off the area. This is completely wrong.

jesus christ

i love this guy for his relentlessness

"At about 15 minutes past the hour every hour all afternoon, teams of agents, many of them masked, left the building escorting four people, each in handcuffs, into parked SUVs that then quickly zipped across the street to the garage of 26 Federal Plaza, where ICE has its local field office."
