If you're wondering what org it is, yes, it's FIRE. And of course some of lawsky like Ken White are trashing the article despite him being quoted accurately.

Anyone who thought Trump wasn’t going to bomb people on Christmas Day hasn’t been paying attention.

actors au! #caitvi #arcane

I'm sure they did, because they execute trans people there for existing. What a massive piece of shit.

One reason the NYT has burned its credibility with trans people is that they still cite the discredited Cass report in reporting on trans healthcare. Never the German, Utah, or other systematic reviews supporting care. They also never provide the political context behind restrictions in care.

"All nonsense!": Michael Jackson’s former bodyguard slams the Trump administration for releasing a deceptive photo of Jackson and Epstein to try to make it appear that the two had ties.

The thing about RFK jr. being a terrible head of health and human services is like…yeah. Yeah, he is literally the worst possible person for the job.

Western right-wing movements are gaining traction in Africa to undermine sexual and reproductive health rights and LGBTQIA+ rights. Africa does not need "an irresponsible espousing of harmful, patriarchal values."

Zohran: "I mean, think about when you fly.  We have made it such a difficult experience to go through TSA that there's now a financial incentive to sign up for a separate program that can move you through it quicker. We have monetized the dysfunction."

Trump is causing mass confusion right now amid an active shooter situation at Brown University. Trump posted that the suspect was in custody, but Brown University and media reports say that is not true and that the situation remains active.

"If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist" The majority of the scientific community agrees on gender affirming care and yet she refuses to listen so she can wage a war on queer children

The Trump administration's bellicose conduct toward Venezuela and other leaders in Latin America has little to do with drug trafficking, says historian Alejandro Velasco. It's an effort "to get rid of leftist governments in the region," he says.

Vivian has handled this better than anyone could. She turned down inheriting potentially tens of billions of dollars to be her true self. She doesn't get a dime and yet she now has a booming modeling and activist career. It's incredible.

Imagine being this much of a piece of shit father.

Robin Ince reveals to last night’s audience at a recording of Infinite Monkey Cage that the BBC has forced him to resign over his support of trans people

Twee jaar later en de zesde druk rolt van de persen! Dank aan iedereen die een van de eerdere edities las. Helaas onverminderd actueel -- de hoeveelheid studies en casussen die de analyse onderschrijft is alleen maar toegenomen.

Steve Bannon being friends with Jeffrey Epstein after spending years doing his whole populist, “down with the elites” bullshit is so funny. These entire movement is just criminals, liars, and sex offenders.

“RFK Jr. has basically taken over CDC and is using it to advance anti-science views — and public health across America has been weakened in all respects,” says Dr. Fiona Havers, a former vaccine expert at the CDC.

We are in Medieval times. 16 cases are linked to a church, which followed exposures at four schools last week. The outbreaks are threatening to cost the country its measles elimination status, which was earned in 2000 after vaccination efforts stopped the virus from spreading continuously. 🧪

"What Swift’s defenders didn’t realize was that they were pushing back against a false narrative that had been seeded and amplified by a small network of inauthentic social accounts. Worse, they were helping to disseminate those bad-faith allegations by earnestly engaging with them."

LGBTQ+ people uniting with labor unions have defeated rising forms of fascism in Canada. It should be a model for the world. breachmedia.ca/trans-albert...

What’s that saying, hit dog holler

Eileen Higgins becomes Miami’s first Democratic mayor in 30 years www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

A historic win in Miami by Eileen Higgins, the first Democratic mayor in nearly 30 years, deserves a special late-night LEFT HOOK. @mikemadrid.bsky.social breaks down why this is so huge and how it could represent a historic shift away from the GOP. thelefthook.substack.com/p/the-histor...

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

Any crypto regulatory framework coming out of Congress must have real safeguards to fight crime and protect our national security.

Data analysis of social media posts painting Taylor Swift as a Trump supporter or white supremacist revealed a network of inauthentic accounts.

A Paramount-Warner Bros. merger would be a five-alarm antitrust fire. Not to mention it's backed by a who's who of Trump buddies and foreign money. The government's review of any deal needs to be based on the law and facts — not who sucked up the most to Donald Trump.

You'd never know it from these headlines that she lost all her claims on the actual substance of the case, claiming that trans people must be banned from bathrooms.

So instead of death panels we make a machine do the dirty work? I can't think of a more capitalist way to kill people. This should terrify us all.

A new Medicare pilot program is about to launch that will let private companies use AI to review requests for certain medical care — and reward companies when they deny claims. stateline.org/2025/12/04/m...

These anti-vaxxers will kill babies. It feels awful to be that blunt, but the stakes here are *babies dying of preventable diseases*.

What did you think would happen when you restricted access to care?

Lindbergh hated the press. Almost a century later, Trump calls female reporters piggies and insubordinate, furious that journalists have covered his porn-star payoffs, ICE raids, and pardoning of drug kingpins. Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Both Trump and Lindbergh’s grandfathers fled their homelands, a step ahead of law enforcement, a factual inconvenience that their grandsons never mentioned in their campaigns against others fleeing similar dire circumstances. Read: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

CONTEXT: I wrote/drew this in 2020. Lol. Happy New Year!

Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.” In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

Despite growing threats, global #malaria efforts have prevented an estimated 170M cases and 1M deaths in 2024. WHO calls on endemic countries to lead the response and for partners to enable them in their commitment to #EndMalaria 👉 bit.ly/3Y6IcXn

“The point of modern propaganda isn't only to misinform or push an agenda. It is to exhaust your critical thinking, to annihilate truth.” - Garry Kasparov

Honestly, if I was married to Stephen Miller I would also want to die.

Remember: RFK Jr. fired his last CDC director because she refused to ram through his anti-vax agenda. Yesterday, RFK Jr.’s handpicked vaccine skeptics threw out DECADES of settled science — and Donald Trump gave a thumbs-up. This will hurt American kids and families.

"I have never seen the line this long at this food bank, This is 4x the size of every previous year...the line wraps around the building a second time..Everyone is freezing and an older lady in line had to be taken inside because she looked like she was about to pass out from being too cold..."

X has been hit with a $140 million fine by the European Commission. Musk's company is being penalized for “the deceptive design of its 'blue checkmark.'" The lack of transparency of its ad repository and not giving researchers access to public data also contributed to the fine.
