Why not start with how your newspaper helped bring us to this dark dark place #NYTisTrash

‘In Chiles v. Salazar - do states have the power to protect LGBTQ kids from harm by health professionals? Republicans on the Supreme Court’s eager answer: No, they do not In United States v. Skrmetti - Do states have the power to inflict harm on LGBTQ kids? the Supreme Court answered: Yes, they do’

I’m told ICE attacked us—despite us being off the street, courtesy of the state police—to create a spectacle because Kristi Noem was present today. Here’s some footage of her and her team on the roof of Broadview. Everything is content creation to these fascists.

In today's Flyover news roundup:

There's nothing illegal about ICE block. This is solely about Apple appeasing the Trump regime. With Google removing sideloading next year, these companies will have total control over what runs on your phone. www.businessinsider.com/apple-iceblo...

This was done at the direction of Pam Bondi. The US government is now dictating what apps you can have on your phone. The underlying threat here is if Apple didn't comply, they'd slap billions in tariffs on Apple products.

If there's one thing MAGAs hate, it's flags youtu.be/ANo8CbY4NYg?...

🚨 “They put black people in one van and immigrants an another… Trucks and military style vans were used to separate children from their parents.” THIS. IS. HAPPENING. People need to see this. We all need to see it. Nobody gets a pass here. Please share with your networks. 1/2

They're terrorizing people to create fascist propaganda content to circulate on social media.

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

Every #ShutDown is a chance to gut NPS staffing and privatize public lands. Lay-offs are still in the works. Call Congress and demand they not go through a Reduction in Force on the Dept of Interior or Park Service! We're partnering with @5calls.org to #RehireRangers: 5calls.org/issue/public...

The NPS lost about a 1/4 of its permanent staff to mass firings, buyouts, early retirements, and resignations so far this year. This is the official resistance account: we preserve & protect public lands; we are America’s history keepers & storytellers. Join us on this uphill trail. #protectourparks

"Women who served in the US military are pushing back against DefSec Hegseth's announcement that the requirements for combat roles will 'return to the highest male standard',saying the standards have always been the same for men and women." @bbcnews-world-rss.bsky.social www.bbc.com/news/article...

Pete Hegseth wants a specific kind of 'warrior.' Maj. Gen. Paul Eaton (Ret.) has a powerful rebuttal. On @cnn.com's "One Thing" podcast, Eaton explained to host David Rind why the U.S. military's true strength isn't a "warrior caste"—it's a force that reflects ALL of America.

Ralph Kerwineo was a transgender man born in Kendallville, Indiana, in 1876 to Black parents with suspected Cherokee and Neshnabé heritage. In 1906 he changed his name, adopted tailored suits, and lived as a cisgender South American man for 13 years. He was described as "the perfect gentleman".

From one #GAF baddie to another, we got us. Now we need yall to have our backs. Time to tell the FTC: Hands off gender affirming care! Now they 9/26, the FTC needs to hear real stories about how gender affirming care saves lives!

Dear Federal Trade Commission: our healthcare is not up for debate. We won’t stand by as you blatantly target trans, gender expansive & intersex people. Stories pouring in tell us what we already know: gender-affirming care is life-affirming, medically-necessary, and evidence-based healthcare.

They want to label us terrorists for even describing what they're doing to us. It's the ultimate exercise in gaslighting and victim blaming. 19thnews.org/2025/09/proj...

As a trans woman who is proudly anti-fascist, I'm just wondering if Trump designating me a terrorist TWICE cancels out? Am I back to upstanding citizen? Or am I a SUPER DUPER terrorist?

6. The Financial Services and General Government bill follows suit, barring coverage of transgender healthcare for federal employees and their families while undercutting D.C.’s protections for transgender care coverage. bsky.app/profile/equa...

5. The Commerce, Justice, and Science bill carries its own slate of riders: a ban on funding transgender surgeries in any federally owned, leased, or used facility, and a prison placement ban that would force transgender women into men’s jails. docs.house.gov/meetings/AP/...

4. In the Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education bill, one rider would ban “any federal funds” from supporting trans care at any age. A strict reading would mean a medicaid/medicare ban. A more expansive reading could target all hospitals providing care.

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

9. This will not become law unless a version of this makes its way to the Senate bill, AND 7 Democrats cave over shutdown fights. Still, it is important that they hear from you now that this is a non-starter. Find your rep and senators here: www.commoncause.org/find-your-re...

A government shutdown would probably mean I wouldn't get paid for a long time, but going along with this shit is unconscionable. Stand firm and let them pull some other unconstitutional thing to get a budget

Please share! This happened in Powderhorn. ICE is literally tearing families apart. 💔 You can find the contribution link in my bio that will help support this family. Thank you Genevieve Roudane for organizing this. www.gofundme.com/f/helpmplsfa...

a lot of normal people just think a case happens organically but there’s so much ground to be gained by informing the public that this is how their state governments spend their tax money

Throughout the arguments, DOJ’s Benjamin Hayes repeatedly demeaned — and, in essence, denied the existence of — trans people, referring to trans women as “trans-identifying men” and “trans-identifying males.” DOJ’s brief went further, calling the women “male inmates.”

My God.

This video was taken at approximately 12:55 PM and these church bells are not ringing the hour. They are ringing, and ringing, and ringing as the protest passes by

The crowd has no beginning and no end as it begins its march to the White House

The transgender military ban is forcing thousands, including 2nd Lt. Nicholas Talbott, out of the service they’ve dedicated their lives to. Let’s remind them they’re not alone: https://www.gladlaw.org/send-a-message-to-transgender-servicemembers/?utm_source=social&utm_medium=bsky

Just like the Nazis and every genocidal regime since, they frame their actions as self defense. By manufacturing the threat of trans people and pushing that narrative, it excuses them in their minds from the violence they perpetrate against our community. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accusat...

One of the things the Nazis did when coming to power was push propaganda that Jews were criminals and prone to violence by focusing on crime committed by Jews or fabricating crime they falsely attributed to Jews. The last 36 hours on X has been this on a massive scale against trans people.

The first large-scale Nazi book burning was on 6 May 1933, when Magnus Hirschfeld's Institut für Sexualwissenschaft in Berlin was attacked by Nazi students. It would take decades for science to recover the knowledge about trans-affirming healthcare that was destroyed that day.

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

“I don't blame any trans person that refuses to vote for Newsom because he's showing people he will throw them under the bus. As a democracy we can't be willing to sacrifice other people. Like if you're willing to sacrifice another group, no matter how small that group is, you're not a democracy.”

This article is so clear eyed. I just wish all journalists would be this clear.

even as the world is completely falling to pieces im still able to worry everyone’s mad at me which really shows the resilience of the neurotic human spirit

At the first Nazi-run faculty meeting at the first university they took over (the nation’s most liberal and most illustrious), everyone expected the most liberal professor to stand up. But just asked the Nazi position on funding in his area.

Louisiana has to build three new natural gas power plants to accommodate the "AI" data center that Meta just crammed through because said center will use *Three Times* as much electricity (and, thus, attendant resources) as the *Entire City Of New Orleans*, every year. Y'all this isn't sustainable.

Avelo's phone number is 346-616-9500 if anyone feels compelled to ask why the fuck they're letting people put children in shackles on their planes

🧊😲✈️ CHILD IN CHAINS‼️ 👉 Thursday August 21, 2025 at Boeing Field in Seattle, we spotted this apparent girl in chains being directed up the steps of an Avelo Airlines 737 (tail: N805VL) on the live web cam feed from the airport 👀 (clip courtesy lalabote.bsky.social)
