It’s a saving grace that the Trump admin is *incredibly* incompetent.
The source in Politico's story was not speaking against the White House's wishes, but spoke in an authorized call during which reporters were instructed to attribute information to a
"senior administration official."

This is a very good point and the thing to understand is that’s not what’s happening on either side. The republicans are identifying all the people they want to target for degradation and a repeal of their civil rights. The democrats are giving a list of who they’re okay to do that to.

I assume anyone who points out how small the trans population is doesn’t know any trans people & I guess that’s what it takes to care? Because if you know even ONE trans person, like a person in your life, how can you think about that person and conclude it’s okay if they get thrown under the bus?

The case stems from a violent anti-ICE protest, but critics say the government's prosecution threatens First Amendment rights.

also as more "AI/delivery robots/Waymos is powered by low-paid foreign workers" inevitably comes to light, remember content moderation is done by people who are having their souls rended apart for low wages AND Zuckerberg backed away from moderating hate speech once Kenyan moderators unionized.

My understanding: two thumbs is the floor, not the limit. It’s impossible to know the total number of thumbs Erin possesses, but if we accept her initial statement in good faith, we can reasonably estimate a minimum.
