Sarah Rogers is steering State Department grants to MAGA-aligned groups in Europe, branding it a “free speech” fight over the EU’s Digital Services Act. Her outreach includes Turning Point USA, ADF International, and Germany’s AfD, raising alarms U.S. funds may bolster Europe’s far right.

Scoop: DHS ousted multiple privacy officers at CBP after they questioned orders to purposely mislabel records about government surveillance to prevent their release under FOIA.

Hm

Even as a cynical scholar of rape culture, I'm shocked that this isn't the headline story on domestic politics everywhere right now. It's just an unfathomable abuse of power, in clear violation of the law.

??? why is RFK Jr. going to the doctor for a surgery when he could simply eat a variety of weird meats at his injury

The war with Iran is barely a week old, but more than 330,000 people have already been displaced as a result of intensifying hostilities, according to the UN. Keep in mind that the affected regions already host 24.6 million forcibly displaced people. https://bit.ly/4luzIV6

Among those allegations was that #Epstein took photos of her posing nude and tried to extort her mother to keep the images secret. Her mother couldn't afford what was demanded by Epstein, the allegations said, and she stole $22,000 from her real estate firm www.alternet.org/jeffrey-epst...

🚨 WATCH: Labour MP Charlotte Nichols reveals she was raped as an MP as she opposes the jury trial reforms "I waited 1,088 days to go to court. We've been told [by the Government] that if we have concerns about this Bill, it's because we've not been raped"

That’s a lot of king crab.

I keep running across this

Every morning I wake up and read about fucked up shit happening in the US, but I can’t remember the last time the shit was this shockingly fucked up.

During the night, Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian vehicles and blocked the road near Za'tara, south of Nablus, in the occupied West Bank.

Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy. This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis. 44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.

#OtD 10 Mar 1939 Spanish anarchist film maker Armand Guerra died. He produced reports on social cinema in French unions and produced documentaries for the CNT during the Spanish Revolution. He died of an aneurysm in Paris shortly after the war was lost. libcom.org/history/arma...

Iran is offering unrestricted Strait of Hormuz access to any country that expels Israeli and US ambassadors — effective tomorrow.

Trump: "I think they were looking to take over the Middle East ... we have pretty good proof"

Trump: "The hardest thing is to go to Dover because Dover is where, for the most part, a lot of the fallen, the warriors, the great young people that have died in war, they seem to mostly go to Dover"

NEW: The Israeli military unlawfully used white phosphorus over homes on March 3, 2026, in the Lebanese town of Yohmor. The use of white phosphorus over residential areas is extremely alarming and will have dire consequences for civilians. Read more: https://bit.ly/4bdqxDt

The reviews used to justify this excluded nearly 97% of all studies from inclusion in their analysis. This is an absolutely obscene hatchet job by the NHS specifically created to eliminate access to hormones for trans youth.

Not content to just steal from the real deal, this game is also ripping off fan designs 😬

Heritage is also a driving force behind the attack on the 14th Amendment and the campaign to eradicate trans people. Everything it does is immoral and anti-American. Its radical ideology has infiltrated corporate and elite media

Money, Money, Money

There is apparently credible evidence that the president of the United States is a pedophile. The comforting phrase “accused him without evidence” no longer fits this situation, and journalists must resort to the more perfunctory “hasn’t been formally charged.” www.thedailybeast.com/key-details-...

Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful. Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.

I really liked this post from our mayor (of Gainesville, FL) today

GET HIS ASS, GRACE #re9

Iran's Foreign Minister says in an exclusive with “Meet the Press” that Russia and Iran have a “very good partnership” and Russia is helping Iran “in many different directions.” NBC News has reported that Russia is providing intelligence to Iran on the location of U.S. forces in the Middle East.

Still no Labour MPs on here justifying their party's transphobic policies. Come on, explain why the harm & death you are causing is good for us...! Maybe to start with instead of complaining they should read these 14 peer-reviewed critiques of the Cass Review plus two other authoritative ones.

Minnesota lawmaker Katie Jones rode in a cargo e-bike to the hospital for her baby's birth. Her husband, Peter Schmitt, pedaled the two miles there. On the return journey, their son Hans – all 8 pounds and 1 ounce of him – was bundled up and handled it just fine, Jones said.

Are we allowed to get the rest of the Epstein files now?

it turns out that the answer to the headline here is: like humans. listen. don't judge, but don't endorse the beliefs, either. as my friend wisely said: “There's value in having friendships where it's like, ‘I love you, but also, you're full of shit.’” www.404media.co/ai-psychosis...

Despite what's happening in Iran and the Midddle East, I am confident that had two trans people done to a Labour, Tory or Reform MP what transphobes did to a Green MP, it would be front page news.

You’d think in this era of “MPs face increasing danger” there would be more outrage at newly elected Green MP Hannah Spencer being assaulted by transphobes but it’s nowhere to be seen on BBC News app even if you search her name
