Divest from Harry Potter and JKR, y'all. It's okay to feel sad about no longer engaging with something that meant a lot to you, but a fictional world that funds a very real assault on trans rights will never be more meaningful than caring about the safety of trans folks.

"No thinking person should lend any credence to the idea that this attempt to terrorize Omar, her constituents, and the Somali community was remotely investigatory. This was an armed attack on the home of a Black woman who is a sitting Congresswoman."

Eisenkot, the most likely alternative to Netanyahu for the next head of government in Israel, says yesterday that "two states for two peoples is a mistake" and that "Ben Gvir probably did some good things in the prisons". He also said he would not coalition with any of the Palestinian parties.

Hundreds showed up tonight at Powderhorn Park in Minneapolis for a rally to support Rep. Ilhan Omar after her DC home was searched by federal agents this morning. The Department of Justice says it was "part of an ongoing federal criminal investigation".

Columbus used a 15th-century legal doctrine to colonize and slaughter the Indigenous peoples he encountered. And it's still the law in the U.S. today.

When Dems talk about the Ilhan Omar situation, they need to stop using language that implies that Omar might have done anything wrong. Trump is not "investigating" Omar. They are trying to denaturalize and deport a sitting Congressmember by scrutinizing decades old paperwork from when she was a kid

Some of the escalations we're seeing, including the attack on Ilhan Omar's home (I will not pretend this act was "investigatory"), are desperate acts. But we must remember that desperate people can be very dangerous. A domestic abuse victim, for example, is in the most danger when trying to leave.

To give a sense of scale, Musk is spending more on the midterms than he was on the 2024 election, and he was the biggest donor in that election. In 2025 he promised to pull back from politics and do much less political spending. Another lie.

Federal agents raiding Ilhan Omar’s home just weeks before an election should alarm us all. After years of Trump’s racist attacks on Ilhan and Somali Americans, the timing demands answers. We cannot normalize the weaponization of federal power against political opponents. #IStandWithIlhan
A bold purple and black solidarity graphic featuring a black-and-white portrait of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar wearing a headscarf, with the U.S. Capitol dome in the background. Large, high-contrast lettering across the center reads “I STAND WITH ILHAN.”
Beneath it, smaller white text reads: “This president should not be able to weaponize the federal government against political enemies.” 
The design features textured purple backgrounds, cream-colored brushstrokes, and bold typography.

They’re doing an “abortion survivor” narrative for the new White House press secretary
A screenshot of a threads post Afshine Emrani that says: Less than sixty minutes. ​That was all the time left on the clock before an abortion appointment would have ended her story before it ever began. ​Her birth mother was 19, terrified, and waiting. Then, the phone rang. A Christian counselor stepped in, spoke truth into fear, and pointed toward adoption. ​A heartbeat was spared. A destiny was preserved. ​Today, that baby is Katie Zacharia: mother of four, attorney, uncompromising woman of faith, and the newly appointed White House Press Secretary.

One more thing about the death penalty before going offline. As disgusted as we should be by Trump's bloodlust, we should NOT lose sight of the CENTRAL role of Democrats in upholding, expanding, and enabling this system that seems to horrify so many people right now. It really cannot be said enough.
