Looks like Trump’s new “steel plant” in IA, announced to shore up support in midterms from people his policies have crushed, where he said construction has already begun, is nowhere close to happening and contingent on Iowans giving tax breaks & incentives to a company in India.

As part of a crackdown on the LGBTQ+ community, Turkish authorities have detained at least 116 people, raided the offices of LGBTQ+ organizations and gathering places, and blocked or restricted 180+ LGBTQ+ social pages and websites. NO ONE deserves to be persecuted simply for being who they are.

The core appeal of reactionary politics is hatred of competent and smart people who follow evidence rather than use it to support conclusions. A million incidents like this happen daily in academia and legal settings, and they're behind almost all right-wing "liberal bias" accusations.

The underlying theory Senate Republicans are going with is that Joe Biden secretly ordered DOJ to investigate Trump, something they have produced no evidence to support and also they're all fine with Trump publicly ordering DOJ to investigate his enemies.

Transphobia is designed by the right to drive a wedge bw Democratic constituencies to undermine women’s health care rights, racial equity, voting rights and climate science. It’s “magic” one of the main architects of the strategy brashly says. But if there ever was a spell, it’s wearing off

There were more men in a single documented gang rape at one school than the number of competitive trans athletes nationally. But I’ve heard a lot more politicians being asked about protecting girls from one of these scenarios and not another… I’ll let you guess which is which.

From what I've heard, the signed-up-for-ACA-coverage-but-didn't-use-it issue is not that the patients committed fraud, it's the brokers. Knowing the patients would never get a bill, brokers would sign people up for coverage and pocket the commission without notifying the patient

Here's a graphic that does a better job of conveying the point than my original post: even by the (insane) standards of the first Trump administration, #SCOTUS is receiving—and granting—a truly unprecedented number of applications for emergency relief from the federal government:
A chart that shows the number of emergency applications filed and granted by the Supreme Court during each presidency dating back to George W. Bush, with the data annualized to show the far-higher frequencies since 2017, but especially during the Trump I and Trump II administrations.
