Looks like someone ran the poll numbers, realized he wouldn't win the Democratic presidential nomination, and decided to set himself up with a cushy consulting gig when his term ends.

This Wednesday, Elon Musk called for the death sentence for transgender youth care providers. It was in reply to a post calling for full criminalization of all gender-affirming surgery. Musk is becoming even more radicalized in targeting trans people. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I don't take tips on virtue from a man who used a pic of his stillborn child for a GoFundMe campaign for his children's burial garden named "Lincoln’s Place" when the project was never built, and Ogles repeatedly refused to disclose what happened to the tens of thousands of dollars donated.

Pete Hegseth announced a new "Office of Religious Affairs" at the Pentagon. In doing so, he invoked a "heavenly king," attacked Secular Humanism, and declared that the military’s "real battle is spiritual." The Christian Nationalist coup continues. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/pete-hegse...

A trans man in the UK has been banned in the workplace restrooms after he was forced to use the women's restrooms to comply with the new EHRC guidance. The women complained because he is visibly male and so they told him he can't use any bathroom.
A screenshot of a Reddit post from the r/LegalAdviceUK subreddit by user Dijstraanon, titled "FtM transgender facing two different issues at work? England."
The post text reads:
"Brother in law is trans FtM and presents fully as a man. He's now facing an impossible situation at work with his employer telling him that due to recent legislation he must use the toilet of his birth gender. BUT several female colleagues have raised a grievance about him using their gendered toilet.
His employer has told him that he cannot use the toilet while he is at work until they sort it out and cannot give him a timeframe to do so. They do [cut off] have disabled separate toilets.
In the mean time one of his female colleagues has accused him of sexual harassment because he was used their gendered toilet. His menstrual cycle meant he needed to use the toilet.
He's been with the employer for just over 5 years but only in this location for 18 months. The location is mainly male with just a handful of females, and his workshop only has male toilets.
I do not know how to support him and as he's not in a union there is no one to turn too right now."

This is one of the most disgusting and racist things I've ever seen. The right in Canada are selling dead Indigenous children t-shirts that promote genocide denial. Children's bones have been dug up at this point but it's never enough for them.
Here’s the pitch, more or less: shirts that tell Canadians to “dig deeper,” to demand “evidence” before believing First Nations, journalists, or anyone else who talks about unmarked graves — because, in their telling, those claims “shame” the nation and are being used to justify a national holiday. They frame it as a free-speech stand. Tired of being told what you’re allowed to question, they say. Make your voice heard.
