About a quarter of all trans people in this country have moved states in possibly the largest internal migration of a particular minority group since the great migration. This is a full blown crisis.

The background on Casey Means—Trump’s surgeon general pick, who is testifying before the Senate this morning—and her quest to “raise the vibration of humanity”.

Zohran’s snow shoveling program? Deeply rooted in the outcomes of SOCIOLOGY research and it wasn’t just about snow removal. Clocked it immediately. This man is smart or has the smartest people working for him. By giving folks walk up jobs to remove snow here’s the snowball of things Zohran did:

Red states are doing what Trump won't: Going after abortion pills in court

BREAKING Former ICE agent: On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.

Just so it's somewhere on the internet. Last session I watched Rep. Brent Crane congratulate racist David Pettinger on his "antics" There's never enough reporting on just how racist this state is and will continue to be without REPETITIVE HATE EDUCATION. #idpol

Glad to see mass concern about "tariff refunds" when we haven't moved a finger to, idk, give reparations to people we freaking sent to CECOT. www.wsj.com/business/tru...

Reacting favorably to White Christian Nationalist harassment campaigns is going to get costly. Our institutions are complying with WCN’s unfounded complaints, everyday. Please remind the leaders of these institutions that we are going to fight expensive battles & win. www.aclusc.org/press-releas...

Speaking of christianity and what that looks like, a friend started a food and supply pantry in Council. Anyone in the community who is in need can stop by and pick up whatever they want. This is the way. 🙌🏽

Two weeks ago I wrote about how MAGA has developed the perverse skill of turning right-wing terrorism acts into left-wing attacks by inverting reality on its head. Today they are doing the same thing woth the Mar A Lago gunman. open.substack.com/pub/davidnei...

This is your new frequent reminder that republicans being platformed for opposing overt, loud racism in Idaho, are printing covert racisms in their weekly newsletters often. Reducing arguments within the GOP to something negative only indigenous people would do. #idpol

NGL. I’m on the edge of my seat for this local election. 🤣 Could be a real testament to the power of REPETITIVE public health ed campaigns (even if it took decades) or it could be a sign of continued resistance to progress driven by medical science in my rural community. Dying to know the results!

Here is the full clip of me talking about Wilson, Trump, and Christian nationalism: youtu.be/bbVMtxdzMlw?...

Shoutouts to @sarahstankorb.bsky.social and @briankaylor.bsky.social in this video: Doug Wilson at the Pentagon: Christian Nationalism and the Meaning of “Christ Is King” youtu.be/uNntWrXZpeA

Does anyone recognize this Nampa PD officer? He refused to give his name or badge number to me. He unlawfully detained a work crew hired to do a job.

NEW Reign of Error podcast with @mjcressler.bsky.social, on that White House Religious Liberty Commission meeting that went off the rails, and the rank antisemitism of the Catholic far right: redcircle.com/shows/fbed71...

Watched ‘Zone of Interest” last night for the first time. All I could think about was this. Local @idahodems.bsky.social need to do something about their state leadership. The Boise Bubble isn’t going to. Just like the GOP won’t hold Epstein predators accountable. www.npr.org/2023/12/22/1...

Other countries are arresting the predators in the Epstein files. That won’t happen here because the GOP won’t let it happen. GOP obstruction should be clear in every article about the Epstein files. Because Americans need it spelled out for them due to literacy rates. www.npr.org/2026/02/19/n...

For over a decade I’ve screamed from the top of my lungs for repetitive CRITICAL coverage of Idaho White Christian Nationalism in hopes we could avoid dangerous 🐎💩 like this. It’s never too late to start listening to the people WCNs actually feel threatened by. #idpol www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

ICE killed a teacher in Georgia today when they chose to chase a man who posed no danger and had no criminal history.

The one thing he does say that's controversial is controversial to me and @richterscale.bsky.social and religion nerds ("there's nothing Christian about Christian nationalism"). It is *a* Christianity. But I get it that he's a politician and it's a take and it absolutely shouldn't be censored.

I know I said this in my other thread, but it bears repeating: the censorship of Colbert's interview of Talarico is about the regime trying to dictate a state religion, and then controlling critiques of it.

Idaho activists, officials decry anti-LGBTQ+ bills as House passes trans bathroom ban in businesses idahocapitalsun.com/2026/02/16/i...

Are you in Bonner or Kootenai County? Have you signed the Reproductive Freedom & Privacy Initiative yet? We need your in-person signature and today we have TWO Drive & Sign locations from 10 AM to 7 PM. Location details in thread 🧵 #idpol

Yes. I want to know who this student is and where they are now.

14 women knocked 600 doors yesterday in the Idaho Panhandle for the Reproductive Freedom & Privacy Act Initiative. We were in a gas station parking lot for our first meet up. People were VERY curious about what we were doing 😎 Here’s a list of people we met. #idpol

Most WA federal rulings found immigrant detentions flouted due process, a report from InvestigateWest found. In 2025, Washington federal courts granted petitions challenging detention more than half the time: rangemedia.co/wa-rul...

We already have the state level version of the SAVE Act in Idaho that SOS Phil McGrane helped enact. There’s still no pushback from democrats who love Phil (R) and no media coverage on the voters who can’t get registered in our state. Remember that time the media yelled for days at PBS for Phil?

yes jeremy carl is a white nationalist, he wrote a whole book about it. he also trains sheriffs.

Remember when I said we were going to see a massive legislation dump soon? WELP.... this is the agenda for House Jud and Rules tomorrow 🫠 #idleg #idpol

Epstein gave a James Dobson article to a woman he was grooming. I explain why. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwfU...

From @wired.com: “Federal records reveal ICE is secretly expanding into 150+ facilities across nearly every state — many near schools, medical offices, and places of worship… DHS asked the General Services Administration to hide lease listings and bypass normal procedures…”🤔

Love to see IDLEG called out for their bullshit fiscal notes. They pretend again and again their bills have little to not fiscal impact, that state services just happen without costing any money

Did @nbcnews.com just interrupt the Olympics to talk about a talk show hosts mom? I’m not mad it’s breaking news. I’m mad they never care about other missing family members. Reminder there are so many missing women and kids in this country, esp indigenous and black. And ICE is disappearing ppl.

NEW: The Republican National Committee (RNC) is urging the U.S. Supreme Court to dramatically restrict mail-in voting nationwide and asking the justices to rule that ballots arriving after Election Day — even if mailed on time under state law — should not be counted.

Florida Highway Patrol is basically just arresting people to deport...and doing nothing else. "Staff shortage" lol www.tampabay.com/news/florida...

this is a subject that's near and dear to my heart 1. no you didn't, you retconning fucks 2. your decades of anti-governance "free market" "government never functions" propaganda paved the way for the complete authoritarian decimation of labor, consumer, environmental protections

I’ve seen many clips this week of middle aged white guys learning the lyrics for Bad Bunny’s performance today. Very funny & intentional. I hope everyone has so much fun singing at halftime today that maybe some other Americans 🙄 decide that hate is lame. Sing loud! Happy Super Bowl. Go Seahawks!

Friday was a hard start to the day, as my ID legislature spoke of me in demeaning ways & began the process of criminalizing my restroom use. Yet these laws ultimately never succeed, aside from making us less safe in public. The reality is we go on as we always have and work and hope for a better day

Mondragón, @poderofidaho said: "ICE is “continuing to break the law” and called the agents’ choice to detain a father outside his child’s school “disgusting.” It sends a message that they’re there to racially profile, she said." www.idahostatesman.com/news/local/c...

Please support the family whose father ICE kidnapped outside a Boise daycare yesterday. Give what you can and share the link. www.gofundme.com/f/support-a-...

There are missing women who have been kidnapped by ICE or people pretending to be ICE who cannot be found by lawyers. It would be the bare minimum to see the same level of news coverage for these women that white girls like Gabby Petito have received. Missing immigrants deserve sensationalism too.

Victory! An Arizona judge has struck down several abortion laws as unconstitutional. Patients no longer have to wait 24 hours for care and make 2 separate trips to the clinic. Also gone are the bans on abortion via telemedicine and abortion for reasons of fetal anomaly.

I published a short and quick primer on how local law enforcement, mostly sheriffs, can collaborate with ICE. I hope it's useful -- I also would love to know what people are seeing in their community. sheriffs.substack.com/p/how-local-...

"None of this proves that either Maxwell or Epstein was orchestrating any sprawling online campaign, but it will keep the fires of conspiracy raging. There are too many dots to connect, and it’s too thrilling to connect them."

You have to understand that these are fundamentally bad people with hatred in their hearts.

Story that messed me up for the day -- elementary school kids find their lost classmate in the immigration jail cafeteria. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Repeat after me America, “If we can go to work, we can have elections.” We didn’t even cancel elections during a global pandemic that killed millions.
