VERY odd situation. At 84/85, he walks across the bridge from Colombia, Mexico into the United States without any passport. DHS detains him, but within a month he’s clearly so ill they send him to an assisted living facility. What was he doing in Mexico? Where’s his family? Did Germany know?

Oh, and the guy was almost certainly not in Tren de Aragua either, as ICE accused. Like with make-up artist Andry Romero, it seems ICE’s reason for declaring him a gang member was… a tattoo. Of a clock. With his son’s birthday. Showing a man holding a kid’s hand. Seriously. ICE can’t be trusted.

Last year ICE said a man tried to murder a female ICE officer while she was trying to arrest him. They swore under oath he grabbed her by the neck and tried to choke her to death. He was even indicted for attempted murder. Problem is, it never happened! Bystander video unraveled the lie.

I will remind you all that Trump tapped Lawrence Taylor, a former NFL linebacker who raped a minor, for new council on youth sports last year. www.advocate.com/news/sex-off...

Brayan Rocchio, walk me off. 2-run shot. Final: Guardians 6, White Sox 5

Grant Taylor In play, run(s) to Brayan Rocchio

MS NOW EXCLUSIVE: "There is no way I'm going to be intimidated." Former special counsel Jack Smith tells @nicollewallace.bsky.social why it's important for him to speak out.

Jack Smith: James Comey, Letitia James, Jerome Powell. There's not criminality here. I mean, seashells?? The only reasonable explanation is the president has it out for these people. He has people who are his former personal lawyers who are going to do what he says, regardless of the facts or law

I had to double-check that this was a real Truth Social post by Donald Trump. It was. He’s completely unhinged. #TrumpIsUnhinged

“There was zero plan, except causing pain,” said one U.N. official about the Trump administration’s decision to stop funding the group with no notice or communication. “And that is not forgivable.” (Published Dec. 2025)

They're.. Dare I say, playing with flair..?

And back to the original point. None of this is the fault of trans kids, like many on the right and too many in the center seem to think.

This is a pretty clear cut principle:

“They said we had to get (the diagnosis), that it was just for insurance … and now that’s the thing they’re using to ban us.”

Every drought for the last 30 years in Corpus Christi has exceeded the parameters contemplated in local plans, thanks to fatal delusions, deep in the heart of Texas’ methodology ... Texas doesn’t plan for droughts to get worse.

Wait those people were excited to hear Wonderwall? Not sarcastically? We cannot let England win the world cup.

The right-wing love to talk about the "dangers" of exposing kids to trans people or same-sex couples. I'm living proof that if you introduce your kids to the gay rights agenda, the danger is they might grow up to be governor.

Hell of a game, Democratic Republic of Congo. Bummed.

Youth sports has turned into an extractive industry for private equity where families have invested tens of thousands into their kids being able to play. Instead of seeing the real issue and pushing capital out of youth sports, it all gets scapegoated on trans youth.

Also absolutely love Arthur Masuaku showing out. Former west ham boys are having a fun world cup

Every baby is precious. Every life is precious. That’s why we need to ban abortion. But also this doesn’t apply to low wage foreigners. Or anyone else I don’t like. Basically when i say all life is precious I mean mine

These guys are adorable

a) there are, like, single digit trans girls in sports in most states (sometimes literally one!), this entire thing is made up so that one girl who wants to play sports with her friends can't do it b) do not, under any circumstances, make policy based on angry sports parents

Kabe kicked the ball out of bounds and fell over. There was no way he couldve gotten to the ball after that touch to score. He had a plan and he sold it.

DR Congo takes the lead, Brian Cipenga with the goal

CONGRESS: Under what authority is ICE supporting the FBI's Anti-Government Violent Extremism Task Force? ICE Assistant Director: "We follow NSPM-7."

There's a manufacturing issue with the baseball. Drag is down. Link unclear. Full story to come shortly, but here's the statement I got from MLB when I asked about it.

The Clippers receive a bevy of assets, including All-Star Brandon Ingram, in exchange for Kawhi Leonard. The Raptors, in return, reunite with the best player on their lone championship team — and pair him with Scottie Barnes. More on the deal: t.co/zfYKENB4rl

🚨SCOOP: Republican Rep. Tom Kean repeatedly voted against legislation to give Americans paid family/medical leave, before Kean took 4 months of paid medical leave from Congress for depression - all while somehow finding the time to raise himself $160,000 worth of campaign cash.

I’m so sad to hear that today, on the last day of Pride Month, we have lost a long time Minnesota state legislator and a fierce fighter for justice and freedom for all people: Karen Clark.

Reminded of Frederick Douglass's inclusive vision of American nationality today - more vital than ever.

Trump reports more than $1.4B in crypto income

This is bone-chilling. A conservative hedge fund manager wants to require little girls to pass genital inspections for their “safety.” And it’s only for girls’ sports. There’s a clear link between transphobia and child sexual abuse.

Kristen Waggoner is the same woman who suborned perjury by having her daughter lie to the Arizona legislature that she competed against a trans athlete. The ADF are complete scum and CNN should be ashamed for having this hate group on to smear a teenage girl.

For them, it does. They cannot conceive of a world in which someone they think should belong to a suboordinate class has the same rights as them. That's also why they hate the Reconstruction amendments. bsky.app/profile/gabr...

people got mad at me yesterday when i said the dems were not ready to take court reform seriously. 5-4 for non-racial citizenship is not a win, it's a reprieve bsky.app/profile/schu...

literally one day apart. goldfish would scoff at this lack of object permanence

really cannot be emphasized enough that the drafters of the birthright clause very much considered cases analogous to undocumented immigrants and *included them too*

Birthright Citizenship is poised to become the next Roe v. Wade: A rallying cry for Republicans bent on revoking human rights. People claiming victory today should know that the Supreme Court gave Trump a roadmap to destroy it. My latest in @thenation.com

alright I had more to say about the Court's birthright citizenship decision this morning: This should've been extraordinarily easy It should not have taken so long or been so difficult to affirm the constitutional foundation of multiracial democracy in the US!! ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/birth...

Justice Thomas citing a half assed blog post for historical evidence is really something to behold.

In opting otherwise, the majority extends great sympathy to those it favors: the young cisgender girls and women who play sports. I share that sympathy." WHY? This is what i mean when I say liberals have been radicalized into transphobia. It's a non-issue that Republicans turned into an issue.

Why do I say it's a non issue? Because In K-12, the number of trans girls in sports is five. In college, the number is fewer than ten, according to the NCAA President. Becky Pepper Jackson was the only trans girl athlete wanting to play sports in West Virginia. The only one.

Supreme Court, predictably, lets red states force trans girls to play on boys' teams instead of girls'. Gorsuch takes pains to explain why this isn't like Bostock (in which he wrote for majority that discrimination against employees on basis of sexual orientation/gender identity violates Title VII)

As Kagan sharply points out, Kavanaugh's opinion simply transforms Thomas' dissent in that 2001 case into controlling law of the land. She highlights how radically the newer justices have changed campaign finance precedent. Whole thing feels like a farce. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

there is no group of people who deserve quasi-suspect class status more than trans people. I swear to god, people need to read Carolene Products. They are a discrete and insular minority with zero political power as evidenced by the fact that they're being attacked left right and center.
