They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

Closet Mike has something to say. But see, his lips are moving, and we all know what that means.
Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson
[image of Mike Johnson]
House Republicans passed over 70 bills this week
alone - that adds to our total of over 900 bills
passed through the House so far this Congress.
We've DELIVERED for Americans.
Readers added context
The 119th congress was the least productive in
history, no congress has enacted less legislation
or laws. Johnson has cancelled a total 63
scheduled voting days in the house, granting
members an extra 2 months PTO, with no house
votes scheduled until after the election.

I can’t believe how little media coverage any of this is getting. Russia is escalating across Europe, Poland is warning of possible Russian strikes on NATO countries, and Lithuania is preparing evacuation routes in the event of a military attack. You wouldn’t know it from our media

Understand this. The US has at least 200 Concentration Camps. #FDT #Pinks
beingliberal •
More than 70,000 people are currently in more than 200 concentration camps in the United States.
What? You say: We don't have concentration camps in the US.
Ah, but we do. Historians define concentration camps as sites of mass civilian detention without trial, based on group identity. Our "detention" centers ARE concentration camps.
We need to shut them down.

Trump continues to disperse disaster recovery funds based on how states vote, which for any other president or public official, in any other time, in any other country, in any other context would be a morally horrific scandal that would dominate headlines for months.

Walmart spent $43.4B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2025, enough to give each of its 2.1M workers annual bonuses of $2,953. Last year, retiring CEO Doug McMillon pocketed $29.2M — his largest payday ever and 958x Walmart's median worker pay of $30,520. Textbook corporate greed.

Trans, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming people have always been here — from the hijra of India to the Diné nádleehi to the leaders who built the modern LGBTQIA+ movement here in New York.
Your existence is not up for debate. Your lives are not a political issue.
We're fighting for a city where every trans New Yorker can live openly, safely, and with joy.
