Slurs are just one example of hateful rhetoric leveled against LGBTQ+ people this election cycle. We've seen increased anti-trans language used by Reps and some Dems. This isn't a a question of policy — speech intended to dehumanize or disrespect is always unacceptable.

"F*cking P*dophile" -- Trump faces protests and heckling as his Administration faces crisis on several fronts: food banks run dry, fuel prices soar, healthcare premiums rise, and the Iran war has no end. A very difficult morning for this Administration less than two months until election day.

ICE is now lying in wait outside convenience stores, or at busy intersections. Agents are arresting people at international airports. Local police and sheriffs, deputized by the federal government, are detaining immigrants during traffic stops. ICE is now detaining more immigrants than ever before.
A chart that shows a timeline of ICE immigration enforcement against different significant events (Los Angeles raids, Minneapolis and Chicago raids), with a line in late March 2026 that says "New enforcement strategy begins" before a peak of over 1,500 daily arrests in July 2026.

Update on Pedro Mendoza Chávez: While he was in the hospital, ICE refused to let his wife see or speak to him, and an officer told her he had fallen. Pedro, 63, says agents kicked him to the ground. Instead of being in a hospital, he's at an ICE detention facility in Taylor, Texas.

Virginians are now voting to repeal the 2006 Marshall-Newman anti-marriage equality constitutional amendment and replace it with an affirmative right to marry. Marshall-Newman is a vestige of the calculated anti-gay fear-mongering flamed nationwide by Rove for political gain during the W years.
“In Ohio, the reader will be reminded of Texas, and in Texas, the reader will get a foreshadowing of what is to come in Ohio and beyond, though not always in a strictly linear sequence. Rove took specific, carefully considered measures beginning in Texas a decade earlier to make gay marriage and religion the wedge issues that helped Bush succeed in Ohio and nationally in 2004.”

Why do people keep falling for russian propaganda? No, Ukraine’s self-defense isn't driving up oil prices, a war in Iran is. And it’s far worse for Ukraine than for any of you, because higher oil prices directly fund russia's ability to keep killing us.

It's now extremely hard for Irish people to conceive what a wild tree even looks like, with mostly only domesticated, tamed versions remaining. This rainforest holly gives an idea. Rewilding is how we allow not only wild trees back, but the entire ecosystems of which they're meant to be a part.
