Did the New York Times just BOTH SIDES Ken Paxton's sweetheart deal for a child sex predator. Yes, yes it did.

To paraphrase a possibly apocryphal comment by Ben Gurion, we’ll know it’s a normal holiday when there is commercialization and appropriation.

If you've seen the Juneteenth flag, but don't know its history or what it means, you can read about it in the words of Ben Haith, the man who designed it. Happy Emancipation Day! ✊🏽 #Juneteenth capitalbnews.org/juneteenth-f...

Saw this on tumblr: a Black-led, trans-led nonprofit that has distributed over $1 million worth of gender-affirming resources to trans and gender non-conforming people. They have a free online "store" where folks can get all sorts of things. Based in my home state 🌴 and simply based

occasionally people think i'm being alarmist about this stuff but no, this has every appearance of being an actual thing

Honestly kind of speechless. Of all the things to make common cause on. I suspect this will age as well as various other endorsements of Trump foreign policy (he's anti war! he's gonna liberate Iran!) have aged. www.ft.com/content/2472...

Obama: When we lose faith in each other, when we stop believing our collective voices matter, we give away our power. We open the door to those who see some people as more equal than others, who see government as a way to punish enemies. I do not believe that is the story of America that prevails

JD Vance lies with an absolute conviction that's so unsettling to me Trump always sounds vaguely insane when he speaks, and most of the rest of his administration either looks uncomfortable or gets shrill when they do it. Not JD. JD comes off like a man who doesn't even know how to lie

if Elon Musk grabbed a kid and injected him with a syringe full of poison, nobody would have any illusions about what he was doing, but since he does the same thing at scale from a distance, it's just business

RFK Jr. says that HPV vaccine is “dangerous and defective”. A new study from England shows that HPV vaccines have reduced deaths from cervical cancer to ZERO for women aged 20-24. Significant reductions in older age groups were observed as well, though the latter have lower vaccination coverage.

People need to make a bigger deal out of Elon Musk's endorsement of "Reconquista." This is naked fascism. newrepublic.com/article/2119...

Surprise? SURPRISE? No, it is a humiliating defeat. But the #BrokenTimes doesn't want to humiliate him. Trump Demanded Iran’s ‘Unconditional Surrender.’ He Got a Surprise Instead. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/17/u...

Can you imagine if a Democratic president started a war for no reason, lost it within a few months, and surrendered? The media would eat that president alive. Then it would spend the next 50 years demanding every Democratic presidential candidate prove ahead of time they aren't similarly loserish.

Trump resurrected the statue of a slave owner. Its pedestal cost taxpayers $527k.

In Tunisia, "there have been arrests since 2023 of human rights activists, including not only those who fight for black African migrants, but those who advocate for other minorities," says @hudamzioudet.bsky.social, who also refers to the paradigmatic case of Saadia Mosbah.

Setting the stage, Diana Rayes lays out how Israel's aggression in Gaza and Lebanon and the war in Sudan have contributed to new forms of displacement, while also touching on the situation of Syrian refugees, which set the bar at the time for the largest displacement crisis.
