Misogyny is a foundational aspect of many forms of hate — but it’s often overlooked, serving as a type of gendered blind spot. The first episode of "Man Up: Conversations on Gendered Hate in the Digital Age" with @milleridriss.bsky.social explores that blind spot through the issue of antisemitism.

Are you ready to join us and peacefully protest fascism and autocracy? The first one was incredible, powerful and uplifting despite the fear www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Its the world worst I told you so said without any joy or ego But We said Trump wasn't going to leave legally or peacefully. Republicans are going for absolute power and martial law Trust the evidence of your eyes.

This is the secret the Trump regime tried so hard to keep about the Dallas ICE shooting The names of the dead and wounded Jose Andres Bordones-Molina Miguel Ángel García-Hernandez Norlan Guzman-Fuentes Fight Trump's dehumanization. Say their names. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/dall...

Trump posting an AI video of himself promising something that doesn’t exist should get the full failing Biden front page treatment but we know it won’t.

If you attend, work for, once went to, or plan to send your kids to a University of California school, write to the presidents and board of regents and demand UC stand up to Trump's attempts to bribe and cower the greatest public unvierstiy system in the world: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/27/u...

Shorter JD Vance: You are not allowed to criticize ICE. Goes along with shorter Pete Hegseth: You are not allowed to criticize the military's action at Wounded Knee. And shorter Donald Trump: You are not allowed to criticize me. It's full-on authoritarianism, all the way down.

Remember: The GOP’s nonsensical culture wars are meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder. [Cartoon by Jace Avery]

After spending years falsely claiming that vaccines cause autism, RFK is now peddling a new lie—blaming mothers taking Tylenol during pregnancy as the cause for autism. This is dangerous and irresponsible misinformation not based on science or facts.

If they have nothing to hide they have nothing to fear… 📌 California lawmakers just passed SB 627, the “No Secret Police Act,” which would make it illegal for law enforcement to hide their identities while on duty in the state.

Don’t let Republicans fool you, medication abortion like mifepristone is incredibly safe (safer than a lot of other common medications!). Join us reproforall.org/join-us to fight back against Trump’s plans to effectively ban it.

We are horrified to learn of the shooting of Charlie Kirk. Political violence has no place in democracy. The foundation of democracy rests on the principle that differences can be debated vigorously, but peacefully, without intimidation or acts of violence.

DAILY MEMO: Agents Draw Guns on a Pregnant Woman at Mariscos Restaurant and More lataco.com/daily-memo-s... @eltragon.bsky.social

Straight, white men are responsible for 84% of Americas gun violence. There have been 4 trans shooters. It’s not about keeping our kids safe. It’s about harming the trans community.

This week, Senator Susan Collins and I introduced legislation to reauthorize programs that will train the next generation of health care providers who care for older Americans. I urge all my colleagues to pass this bipartisan bill.

‘if the University of California capitulates, there is nothing to stop the Trump administration from extorting funds from it again and again in the future.’ Via Erwin Chemerinsky @latimes.com www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...

"His mother told NBC4 that the agent told her son they had confused him with someone else, but to “look at the bright side: you’re gonna have an exciting story to tell your friends when you go back to school”." WTF www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

If you live in wildfire country, which is sadly more and more of US, this is ENRAGING

y’all know what one of the first nazi book burnings was right? y’all know why they did it y’all know trans people were one of their first targets and even the ALLIES left us in the camps when liberating everyone else y’all see what’s right in front of you, right?

I’m gonna lose it if one more person suggests that Lisa Cook admitted to mortgage fraud or that she tried to explain it away as a “clerical error.” Neither of those things happened!

Hey fellow authors! File your claim now to punish this AI company from stealing your work without compensation. If we punish them hard enough maybe "theft-as-business model" will stop. www.lieffcabraser.com/anthropic-au...

DAILY MEMO: ''A-Kidnapping We WILL Go:’ Agents Mock With Nearly 50 Kidnappings Since Friday" @eltragon.bsky.social

So grateful to hear @swin24.bsky.social on MSNBC re: the federalization of DC: "Because it's been a top policy priority, for years...to wield the US military against Democratic-dominated cities [Trump] doesn't like...I don't think it should be simply dismissed as a 'distraction'" from Epstein.

One of the destabilizing things about this moment is how clear it is that the folks who are actively destroying democracy and public health while openly celebrating racist/fascist ideologies and embodying truly debased values seem to have absolutely no fear of any future reckoning.

Stephen Miller is lying to you. I live in Los Angeles. People here are safely jogging, hiking, biking, and walking all over this city. I feel safer here than I did in Texas — because California doesn’t have concealed carry and a bunch of Conservative gun nuts just itching to open fire.

How Trump's immigration policies are affecting caregivers and nursing homes

Working hard to defend the rights, dignity, and well-being of immigrants, refugees, and the undocumented, they need our help more than ever right now. By Hadley Tomicki The full guide: lataco.com/donate-non-p...

This is just deeply depressing: women who spoke up during #MeToo often found their lives upended, as powerful men used defamation suits to target them, e.g. Roy Moore is still suing many of his accusers. What Happened to the Women of #MeToo? www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

We have learned that one of the women taken on Alvarado and 8th is Sabrina Medina, a pregnant U.S. Citizen expecting twins from Huntington Park, whom Kristi Noem targeted and was present last month for a photo op.

A tsunami advisory is in effect for LA County with expected impacts to beaches, harbors & ports beginning around 1 am on Wed. July 30. Residents should stay away from beaches & waterways, due to strong currents & waves in or near coastal waters. Read more: content.govdelivery.com/accounts/CAL...

35 years after the ADA, accessible housing and shelter remain out of reach for many. 1 in 3 Californians experiencing homelessness struggle with daily living activities. Many report that their mobility challenges limit housing and shelter options. It’s crucial to address these gaps. #ADA35

we are currently watching an entire political party run cover for the most notorious sex trafficking ring in modern human history

This is a really big deal that will impact MILLIONS of people: "For example, if someone paid $60 a month for their health insurance this year, they might be looking at $105 a month next year. " www.npr.org/sections/sho...

The Department of Labor has quietly ended its only nationwide job training program for low-income seniors just as tens of thousands must meet new work requirements for Medicaid and food assistance. news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-...

Heads-up: Medical debt can now go back on your credit report, thanks to a federal judge appointed by Trump.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, the National Domestic Violence Hotline provides 24/7 confidential assistance. To speak with a trained advocate, visit thehotline.org or text START to 88788.

The man was scheduled to appear in court on Monday for a domestic violence hearing. Guns and domestic violence are a deadly combination—not only for women, but their children and other family members as well. More must be done to keep guns out of the hands of domestic abusers.

They fired the people answering calls for help. Hundreds of them. During the crisis.

Southern California is really living an entirely different life than the rest of the country right now. Clashes between the people and military are now an almost daily occurrence. Why? To prevent our neighbors from being kidnapped and placed in concentration camps.

@lataco.bsky.social pivoted (somewhat) to start doing amazing coverage of ICE raids in LA. Now they’re reporting that taqueros themselves are being rounded up www.tiktok.com/t/ZT68PdstS/

Peace demonstrators have been beaten, foreign students have been disappeared, and educational institutions have been broken and tarred for being "antisemitic" through a series of tortured jingoistic inferences, while Donald Trump constantly and explicitly tells us what he thinks of Jews

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

If the Roberts Court were not complicit in this coup, Trump would not feel comfortable stating such things publicly. But he knows they will approve whatever abuses of power he undertakes. Together, SCOTUS, Trump & the supine Congress have killed our democracy just in time for July 4th.

Trump is building concentration camps in America, and the press hasn't caught on. So allow me: AMERICA IS BUILDING CONCENTRATION CAMPS TO GO WITH ITS SECRET POLICE. Trump and his supporters are waging war on innocent Americans. Never forget and never forgive the people who voted for this.
