It was an extrajudicial execution. Anyone who defends this is defending a police state.

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Journalists and media: stop bothsidesing attacks on childhood vaccines. We look to you to report what is happening and what the effects will be, not repeat the administration’s rhetoric. The effects will be more sickness and more death. That is not something to bothsides. Hold power accountable.

The Trump surrender of Ukraine descends into utter chaos. But “chaos” is too mellow a word: What we have here is a rich bouillabaisse of incompetence, mendacity, tragedy, farce, and diplomatic blunder. Words have a hard time keeping up with the story.

To the Coast Guard leadership signing off on this: You are trading your honor for political favor. By bowing to an administration that flirts with neo-Nazis, you are destroying the integrity of the service. If you can't define a swastika as hate, you aren’t fit to command. Period.

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

Trump issues an order for the arrest and criminal prosecution of members of Congress who made a video reminding soldiers and sailors that they swore an oath to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and shouldn't implement illegal orders. Trump's conduct is unabashed fascism.

Autism is a complex condition with no one cause. But we already have a strong understanding of what’s driving its increased incidence, that isn’t a mystery. We’re better at screening for it. And common risk factors (environmental, genetics, older maternal and paternal age) are rising.
