Meet Texas Republican, Bo French. One of his favorite phrases is “third world savages”—which he has applied to Afghan asylum seekers, Muslims, and even Native Americans, who he also wants deported. He might win statewide office in Texas.

Just a reminder that the UC system was not a party in this litigation. Faculty, staff and the @aaup.org fought on their own. UCLA, and the entire UC system, should be ashamed of themselves, and their leaders should be reminded of their submissives every day.

This explains where he got his information… electionlawblog.org?p=154326

Roses are red Violets are blue Everyone in the Epstein files should lose positions of power and be exiled from polite society, too

Well well well

Obviously, if Trump is talking, he’s lying. But I find this statement to be perhaps the most implausible one he’s ever uttered. “I have searched the depths of Legal Arguments not yet articulated or vetted on this subject, and will be presenting an irrefutable one in the near future.”

The Road to Care is a visual storytelling project by Yellowhammer Fund exposing the journeys anti-abortion policies are forcing on those of us in the Deep South. Five episodes. Releasing March 10–14. Beginning on Abortion Provider Appreciation Day.

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women." Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration. It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. Our latest.

faculty books aren't for sale at ours, but they do sell books by basketball coaches and the mascot

This is a great hire for Georgetown.

obviously not endorsing talarico here but i've been fascinated by this line because i do think it speaks to, at least partially, how certain parts of the political press is hyperfocused on "trans issues" and general culture war stuff

Joan W. Scott calling upon democrats everywhere👇🏽 “The suppression of gender studies is not only an attempt to suppress a critical analytical tool, but also knowledge itself. “Defence of gender studies is… a vital stand (for)…democracy, one based on aspirations for equality and justice for all”.

…who was also his what now?

I don’t want to be like Mike Tyson, Jay. It’s incredible that Les Incompétents not only burned a fat stack of cash on a Mike Tyson Super Bowl ad, but are apparently building an entire campaign around him. The food item for which Tyson is most famous is Evander Holyfield’s ear.

Men will turn back the clock 350 years instead of going to therapy.

A person who would fire someone over this is also a person who would kill a puppy for not being well-trained.

Why keep thousands of people alive when you can instead make one man feel safe and special?

Oops - maybe don’t give advice to pedos. Too bad, so sad. 🤷🏼‍♀️

In terms of what cures are being lost: - Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis - herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis - shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Dr. Oz appears to have invited Jeffrey Epstein to a Valentines Day party in 2016, long after Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting sex with underage girls.

“We’re the only country in the world that has mail in ballots”. - Senile Satan

The arrest rate among CBP agents is higher than the arrest rate among undocumented immigrants.

By all means, weird white guy, tell us more about how we don’t have enough access in this country to “white food,” “white church,” and “white music.”

Children’s access to vaccines should not be determined by this person’s evaluation of risks versus benefits.

My Inquisition, Witchcraft, and Empire class that I teach has reached the point of semester where the gender divide is such: the girl are furiously taking notes on the spells and recipes preserved in Inquisition cases and the boys are staring at me in abject horror.

Texas is determined to destroy its public universities. Make it make sense.

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”

Kind of a minor point but the Dow is measured in index points because it's an index, it isn't a price in dollars

NEW: “CBS Evening News” producer Alicia Hastey sends a bombshell farewell note: Stories are “evaluated not just on their journalistic merit but on whether they conform to a shifting set of ideological expectations.”

She is an empty suit, of course. And an absolute nasty piece of cornbread. She is also, to my somewhat trained ear, absolutely, positively terrified here. She is either intimidated by the process or deeply anxious about her relationship with her boss. Or both. But she is terrified.

This is old metoo bitch erasure

I remember being surprised at how much MeToo took over the minds of certain folks, and I guess I just severely underestimated the number of older men who regarded nonstop predation of younger women as their birthright

The courtesans at Sheri’s Ranch are the first group of legally licensed sex workers to unionize in U.S. history (!!!). Their new union website states their demands as “safety on the job, better working conditions, and control over their own futures.” unitedbworkers.com

I can't think of an attorney general ever showing this much open contempt for Congress before. Not only would most of them think this kind of conduct was beneath them, they'd have known that the Judiciary Committee chair, whatever the party, would never stand for clownish antics like this.

"Without meaningful discipline for judges who abuse their power, abusive conduct will persist unabated in the federal courts." @alizashatzman.bsky.social LAP’s statement on judicial disciplinary order re Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby.👇 www.legalaccountabilityproject.org/press-releas...

in fact you do not have to show your ID when you board a train in the united states, you only need to show your ticket (which can be purchased without an ID)

It is absolutely outrageous that Moderna’s flu vaccine was met with a “refusal-to-file” even after their approved their protocol with FDA and carried out the trial as agreed. This vaccine works better in older adults than the current flu vaccines. apnews.com/article/mode...

Government-issued Real IDs and driver’s licenses aren’t proof of citizenship, and most people aren’t walking around with a passport.

They're calling it the most embarrassing op-ed of all time: The Louisiana SG, who has multiple cases pending before the Supreme Court right now, writing an essay about how his old boss, Justice Samuel Alito, is the nicest, smartest, bestest justice who ever lived www.foxnews.com/opinion/i-wo...

🚨 New Episode 🚨 This week on @reprosfightback.bsky.social I talk to Christina Baal-Owen’s with @napawf.org about ICE and the AAPI community and the barriers the AAPI community faces in accessing abortion care. #podcast

Habeas cases filed by immigrants claiming their detention is illegal have taken off to levels we have never seen before. Just look at that chart. www.propublica.org/article/habe...

I wouldn’t bring children or Nannie’s to the private island of a notorious pedophile.

Don't buy books on Amazon Don't publish through Amazon

I used "smooth-brained" as a dig until a father of a boy with lissencephaly -- the medical term for the condition -- wrote me an incredibly patient note to explain what his son had to deal with. This phrase is a gratuitous insult to parents and children who are already suffering. Don't use it.

Chappell Roan is leaving her talent agency led by Casey Wasserman after he appeared in the Epstein files.

Sweden’s experience with midwives providing abortion care offers lessons for other countries. Swedism midwives have long led care for healthy women during pregnancy and birth, with doctors supporting when complications arise. Applying the same model to abortion care is both logical and effective.

The National Woman’s Party was done with Wilson’s bullshit about the 19th Amendment. www.jezebel.com/memories-107...

GOP Sen Lummis says she’s changed her mind after the new Epstein revelations today: “Initially my reaction to all this was, I don’t care. I don’t see what the big deal is. But now I see what the big deal is. The members of Congress who were pushing this were not wrong!”
