AIDING FASCISM: TN’s GOP Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti is trying to help Donald Trump rip up the U.S. Constitution. What if Biden had issued an executive order repealing the 2nd Amendment? Hello? We’re in the middle of a constitutional crisis and that’s how reporters should be covering it.

Let’s go Canada! 🇨🇦 Keep up reminding Americans how insane all of this is. It certainly triggered him. WAKE UP AMERICA!!! Before its too late! #SaveOurDemocracy #Pinks #Canada #Elections #SpreadTheWord

I wrote a new Essay :)

Good morning Good news It's great to start the day with the news that President Biden rang the bell !! He has successfully completed his radiation therapy God Speed Joe !!

“Millions across all 50 states” headlines @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I’ve been really down since my kid isn’t coming home for breaks due to it not being safe here…and my fall break is the next 2 weeks. So, guess who booked tickets to fly to New Brunswick Tuesday??

Per CNN, the White House has just issued a two-word response to what may be the largest day of protest in US history—and those two words perfectly encapsulate why No Kings Day exists. The response from would-be King Donald to outrage over his destruction of our traditions and norms is, "Who cares?"

This frog and I are ready to go!

1. New York City Public Schools has announced that it will defy Trump's demands to ban trans students from bathrooms, funding threats be damned. Instead, it has launched a lawsuit against the admin and declared it will not throw trans students under the bus. Subscribe to support our journalism.

🔥 ZOHRAN ON FOX: "I want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Adams who will call you to stay out of jail… a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election… I’ll be a mayor ready to speak at any time to lower the cost of living.“

JD Vance can dismiss the Young Republicans as a college group chat. But let's be clear: the group chat includes a State Senator, a Trump Admin official, and multiple Republican staffers — and some of the worst comments came from folks associated with Mike Johnson, Elise Stefanik, and Mike Lawler.

The teacher speaking is Mr. McCant at Lovejoy High School in Clayton County, Georgia. Is this what is being taught to students? It's no wonder people are feeling stressed, but it's the left indoctrinating people. 🙄 Would this be considered grooming? #ProudBlue Video credit: queenbigdawgg/Tiktok

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples? HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

Does anyone else have trouble returning to a setting where you had a meltdown? How do you cope? I had a parent push me over the edge at work, and then follow me to the office to keep berating me, when I had retreated there so I COULD hopefully recover before needing to teach my next class.

AOC assures trans kids they’re not to blame for anything: “You are fine just the way you are” www.lgbtqnation.com/... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

an Indigenous Peoples Day reminder that borders are bullshit and every Indigenous person from across the Americas deserves to be in the US more than every person of European origin fuck borders, fuck ICE, land back.

Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day!

Misinformation about gender affirming care is spreading again. Yes kids are getting top surgery, but you might be surprised who they are. Come over to MNB to see the numbers for yourself medicalnewsbulletin.com/are-transgen... 🧪 #EduSky #healthpolicy medsky, 🩺,⚕️ #pediatricpsychology PedSky 🌈🎓

Catfish! Think these would be allowed in a dorm)

I was in the toilet at a Mexican restaurant in Brighton at the weekend when a trans woman came out of the stall to wash her hands. She looked terrified and was doing everything she could to avoid me. I wanted to say something reassuring and tell her how sorry I am, but I was worried I would scare..

On the verge of tears, because it's completely accurate, it is terrifying each time. The latest time I absolutely HAD to use a toilet was a motorway services and I was frightened, I avoided eye contact, head low, used alcohol wipes in my car instead of washing hands. Everyone's a potential aggressor

Mamdani talking lucidly and passionately about trans rights and history in a video that should frankly shame every politician who has hemmed and hawed and triangulated and said, "Well, but sports..." It's not that hard to tell the truth and stand for what's right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEvV...

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Happy thanksgiving weekend to all my Canadian friends. Thank you SO much for welcoming my trans kid, who is currently studying in NB. They are SO much happier in a place they feel safe.

When I say Gavin Newsom is not a democrat and is a transphobe, this is why. He criminalizes poverty and makes life harder for trans people. The state legislature approved these measures representing the will of the people, and he's instead posting memes and waxing poetic on conservative podcasts. 🤦‍♀️

It is pretty galling that the Supreme Court spent four years telling Biden "you can't do that without Congress" then allowed Trump to seize a once-unthinkable amount of power from Congress within nine months and concentrate law-making authority almost entirely in the executive branch.

Sometimes people don’t think the obvious things through because they’re consumed by hate… 📌 Most Americans don’t even have affordable healthcare right now. But MAGA is convinced that undocumented immigrants get free healthcare. 🥴

Sen. Schiff to NBC: "He's described me as the enemy within. He's described other Democratic elected officials as the enemy within. He is using the Justice Dept. to go after his political enemies, and he's using the Justice Dept. to protect his political friends … This should concern every American."

This is simultaneously not an especially radical theological belief and, politically speaking (especially in the U.S. context), quite a thing for Pope Leo to say. www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/266859/...

NEW—US Department of Education sent out standard Out of Office language to employees on Wednesday in light of shutdown. Later yesterday, workers tell me they found someone had updated their auto-responses without consent to a new one blaming Democrats. Version of original on left, updated on right:

I asked Trump's former OMB director Mick Mulvaney to acknowledge it's a lie that undocumented immigrants get ACA subsidies (they don't), and he ended the interview. "Would you agree that not a single dime of ACA subsidies goes toward undocumented immigrants?" "I'm not gonna do this anymore."

I don't think the people expressing surprise about things the Trump administration is doing understand how absolutely fucking crazymaking each of your posts is for Black and Indigenous folks who called *all of this* and sat through people talking about "respecting norms" for years

Even a passing knowledge of Black history will make clear that not only was this level of destruction possible, it was inevitable. “Did you know they’d shut down US AID?” I mean these are the same people who closed all public schools in a county rather than desegregate. Yes. Yes I did.

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

Let’s be clear on something. Everyone in that room earned their rank via a spotless career of skill, valor, and integrity. Becoming a general or an admiral may be the last true meritocracy in our country, and they do not suffer fools. 🫡They did not applaud. 🫡They were not fooled.

"It would be good if all the general and flag officers present could quietly agree ahead of time not to let themselves be used as pawns for political purposes." This is really not too much to ask. In fact, it's a bare minimum for a liberal democracy. www.thebulwark.com/p/remember-t...

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

I’m really grateful for Pritzker. But that he’s so good at this also makes clear just how badly most other Democrats are failing to meet the moment.

Democrats want the subsidies for the ACA extended in the CR, a White House official says Trump blames Democrats “unserious and ridiculous” demands. Goes on to say Trump ‘read all the shit they’re asking for’ and ‘on second thought go fuck yourself.’ #TrumpsGovernmentShitdown

I think every mother has made this face at some point. #foster #cats #fosterkittens

Noem and Vance are spinning the sniper attack in Dallas as attacks on ICE. Don't buy it. It's an attack on IMMIGRANTS in ICE custody. They got penned up and slaughtered by this government's message of hatred towards brown people.

I guess Trump and RFK Jr weren’t happy with the studies that said sperm from older men significantly raises the risk of autism.

I have never seen a festival of hate like what is happening in Arizona today Every speaker sounds like they want to genocide more than half of America

Protective little mama cat. She’ll let us feed/clean around her, but doesn’t trust us with her babies yet
