It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.
The Salvation Army is not a charity. They are an evangelical church that uses donated money to actively oppress gay rights. They've been especially cruel to trans people.

Koh: This is not about justice. This is about power. This is about a Secretary of Defense so drunk off alpha male bullshit that he's willing to take lives to get off on that power.

If you think women here can't be forced backwards... These are women in Parliament in Iran in the mid-1970's. Their decline feels familiar. A reaction to women having too many rights. A fear of what was happening to traditional family. A desire for younger wives. A closing of the fist. #Pinks

The nexus of bank exposure to NBFIs & the exposure of both banks/NBFIs to the web of AI/crypto companies is going to cause the next systemic financial crisis. It's really only a question of how & when at this point.

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here. And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

Democrats are furious that the Trump Administration held a briefing on Capitol Hill today about U.S. military strikes on suspected drug boats. Only Republicans were invited. This is from Sen. Mark Warner D-VA.

Tell me a scenario in which Trump accepts that his completed ballroom is being used by a Democrat or a Republican he hates. This is, literally, a monument to permanence. It’s not the action of someone planning to leave.

Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation. This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.

Never though I'd be saying, "I agree with Rand Paul," on anything, yet here we are.
Social media post:
JD Vance @JDVance . 10h
Killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens
is the highest and best use of our military.

Rand Paul
@RandPaul
JD "I don't give a shit" Vance says killing people he
accuses of a crime is the "highest and best use of
the military."
Did he ever read To Kill a Mockingbird?
Did he ever wonder what might happen if the
accused were immediately executed without trial
or representation ??
What a despicable and thoughtless sentiment it is
to glorify killing someone without a trial.

In any event, if he does try this dumb stunt, an obvious and correct response would be for governors among others to ignore anything purporting to be from a "Department of War" or "Secretary of War" on the objectively true grounds that neither of those things exist.

Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.

I think the fact that the president can make up a bullshit pretext about crime, activate various states' national guard units and invade a major city with basically minimal pushback of any kind reflects very poorly on Americans generally

Clark can (and surely will) appeal the D.C. Bar’s determination to the D.C. Court of Appeals (not to be confused with the D.C. Circuit). But Ryan is 100% correct—this is a big deal.

Cry me a river. Maybe they’re burned out from terrorizing families & traumatizing kids. From dragging moms out of courtrooms. Or chasing day laborers through parking lots like it’s a game. If that’s what’s breaking them, maybe they should ask themselves who they’re really serving.

Why are the New York Times editors asking this question when they know the answer is no? It’s fear of telling the truth too directly. Even when NYT stories make strong points, the headlines fuzz things up.
