We have confirmation. The Weiner Circle in Lincoln Park has responded to the Chicago Pope 😂

1. The Supreme Court has allowed a military ban that calls transgender people inherently "dishonorable" to go into effect. This is a devastating ruling that opens the door for much worse. I detail what this means for trans servicemembers in my latest. Subscribe to support my journalism.

✨ personal news ✨ I’m thrilled to share that I’m joining @themeteor.bsky.social team leading all things audience! Stoked and excited (and a little terrified) to also rejoin the workforce in a full time capacity for the first time—as a working mom. send your tips and prayers 🥹✌🏽

Speaking as a lawyers: lawyers are not going to save us, but we have an important role to play in buying enough time for a mass movement to push back against what's happening

in the spirit of self-crit: in past years I have certainly been among those who have been vocally skeptical of the role of law and lawyers in meaningfully constraining armed agents of the state. but I do think we have to hand it to lawyers at this time

Apologies for being a day late with the promo but we were so excited to talk with @leximcmenamin.com about how Teen Vogue's cover story with @thevivllainous.bsky.social came together and how they're approaching covering the 2nd Trump administration. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

we went from harshly judging child-free people to harshly judging people for having children so fast and honestly both sides are giving gilead, giving eugenics…

my timeline is basically just a ping pong of “birth rates in the us at an all time low” to “white house wants more babies” to “wHy aRe So MaNy ppl HaVing bAbIEs isNt tHat a BaD iDea riGht nOw???” meanwhile pregnant people and new parents are fighting for their lives to parent in a collapsing empire

Breaking news: The United States faces millions of measles cases over the next 25 years if vaccination rates for the disease drop 10 percent, according to new research published Thursday.

On being called DEI and why it isn’t the burn they think it is

This moment when the penny drops that trying to implement bathroom bans is an impossibility for the former Tory Chief Secretary Simon Clarke is delicious.

Nationally, Black women in states with abortion bans are at the greatest risk of pregnancy-related death; the analysis found that among Black women, 60.9 die for every 100,000 live births, compared to 18.2 White women and 18.2 Latinas. 19thnews.org/2025/04/abor...

NEW from me: A whistleblower says DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data...and then someone posted a threatening letter to his door. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

You’re going to see a lot of this “boho belt” this weekend at #coachella. So I set the record straight on the Concho belt, one of the most iconic Diné (Navajo) pieces of apparel, for @teenvogue.com: www.teenvogue.com/story/a-quic...

I was accused of being a “cancel culture” ghoul because I wrote a viral essay criticizing American Dirt. The only person involved in that incident who lost their job was me, not the people I critiqued for racism and xenophobia.

BREAKING: An immigration court determined our client Mahmoud Khalil to be removable from the U.S. based solely on his political speech. The fight isn't over — we'll keep fighting for Mahmoud's freedom and all of our First Amendment rights in federal court.

UPDATE: ICE has awarded a new contract worth up to $3.8 billion for the company to operate a migrant detention camp on Fort Bliss — its largest contract yet. It's the first time ICE is moving ahead with plans to detain thousands of people arrested on U.S. military bases in tents before deportation.

It’s #NationalLibraryWeek, so continuing to share this piece where librarians spoke about the impact of threats to library resources—and how the services, programming, and support libraries provide to communities is essential. I hope you’ll read what they shared:

Here is my report on the "reciprocal" tariffs for ARTnews, which details rates for specific countries and focuses on the negative impact on the art industry: www.artnews.com/art-news/new...

The logic of filling in public swimming pools with dirt or cement instead of racially integrating them, applied to the whole country

NEW: After cancelling nearly all projects on trans health, the Trump admin has now directed the NIH to study the negative consequences of transitioning. This will create “a distorted research ecosystem where only politically favorable findings are permitted to exist”, researcher Harry Barbee says.

Maybe everyone can see it now, but the world's richest people have tanked it all to restock assets and get liquid after years of illegally playing with funny money. They used "the wokeness" as a cudgel and it worked. The next Disney princess WILL be white, as we all eat beans under the highway.

so will millennials be able to afford houses now or no

So you want to leak to a journalist. Here's how.

What do trans rights have to do with preserving abortion access? @raquelwillis.com writes that attacks on gender-affirming care and LGBTQ identity attempt to “reduce people to their reproductive capabilities,” threatening “the universal right to bodily autonomy."

Just note: it’s always Indigenous women of the Americas. Always.

NEW for @teenvogue.com Experts say it’s not surprising that young people targeted (or potentially targeted) by the Trump administration are especially struggling to cope with their mental health — facing chronic anxiety, depression, PTSD, and even suicidality. www.teenvogue.com/story/how-to...
