If we actually want to appreciate moms, we should be providing free childcare, healthcare, and guaranteed income for stay-at-home parents to put more money in families’ pockets and ensure no SAHP is reliant on a partner for their economic security. Idk I think that’s better than 15% off a vacuum.

Sarah Longwell: We are committing superpower suicide in real time. Trump is making China Great Again.

Poll: People in *every single one* of the top US-allied countries now believe it’s better to depend on China than on the US.

The global balance of power is clearly tilting away from the US and toward China.

The Economist’s Middle East correspondent Gregg Carlstrom noted that Trump appears to be workshopping the causes for his attacks on Iran and his goals for the war by talking to journalists.

Wouldn’t it be interesting if Florida’s official state tourism agency found out exactly what people thought about their brand new concentration camp? (I made a thing - feel free to copy and share) [ @hcrichardson.bsky.social , you just asked in your video to be tagged in any new memes, right? ]
A vintage style Florida postcard that reads 

“Visit FLORIDA 
The Concentration Camp State”

…with a sunset view of a beach and palm trees in the background. 

In 1930s-50s style, the capital letters of FLORIDA are filled with an illustration, but it’s a photograph of bunk beds surrounded by chain link cages at the horribly named Alligator Alcatraz concentration camp. 

The legend at the bottom says

BREAKING: The Eleventh Circuit, on a 2-1 vote, holds that Florida’s anti-drag law is likely unconstitutional and upholds the injunction barring enforcement of the ban. media.ca11.uscourts.gov/opinions/pub...
Before ROSENBAUM, ABUDU, and TJOFLAT, Circuit Judges.
ROSENBAUM, Circuit Judge:
Justice Potter Stewart famously offered a non-definition of obscenity: "I know it when I see it." Jacobellis v. Ohio, 378 U.S. 184, 197 (1964) (Stewart, J., concurring). Many know Justice Stewart's quip. But it's not, in fact, the law.
The Constitution demands specificity when the state restricts speech. Requiring clarity in speech regulations shields us from the whims of government censors. And the need for clarity is especially strong when the government takes the legally potent step of labeling speech "obscene." An "I know it when I see it" test would unconstitutionally empower those who would limit speech to arbitrarily enforce the law. But the First Amendment empowers speakers instead.
Yet Florida's Senate Bill 1438 (the "Act") takes an "I know it when I see it" approach to regulating expression. The Act prohibits children's admission to "live performances" that Florida considers obscene for minors. But by providing only vague guidance as to which performances it prohibits, the Act wields a shotgun when the First Amendment allows a scalpel at most. And Florida's history of arbitrarily enforcing other, similar laws against

Opinion of the Court

performances that are far from obscene only deepens our concerns.
We therefore hold that the Act is likely unconstitutional on its face and affirm the lower court's injunction against its enforcement.

Thank you, Susan Collins, for letting us know where you stand. Transgender teenage athletes are about the least of the woes facing young women today. The Trump administration you have enabled jeopardizes young women's lives and rights, and is racing to take them away.

Important. Either Trump is so far gone mentally he doesn’t know what he’s doing, or people are acting in his name without his knowledge. This was an order with enormous implications, and the President of the United States says he didn’t do it.
