In a democracy committed to equal citizenship, intimate images cannot be wielded as a cudgel. Image-based abuse isn’t ‘messy politics’; it’s coercion the law must prevent. Public office confers duty, not immunity

Screenshot of two Bluesky posts. The first, by Chris Hayes, links to an Orlando Sentinel article titled “Judge grants ex-girlfriend restraining order against Rep. Cory Mills,” with courtroom photos of Mills and a woman. The second, by law professor Mary Anne Franks, says: “Revenge porn is a crime both in DC & Florida, where the victim lives. It also became a federal crime to either commit or to threaten to commit image-based sexual abuse on May 19 of this year. It looks like at least one of Mills’ alleged threats to expose the images occurred after that date.”

Looks like our experiment isn’t going to make 250 years…
I’m not being funny. I’m sick,
sick to my stomach every day watching truly terrible people run our country into authoritarianism.

What pisses me off the most is they hide behind their Christian faith while ignoring Jesus’s teachings.

It doesn’t make you a smart investor if you “knew” what the market was going to do. It makes you an insider trading felon.

gee, this Bobby Walker, who thinks rape is ‘epic,’ seems nice. I wonder if there are any photos of him hobnobbing with Republican leadership.

For weeks now, I have been on the verge of quitting the fight.
Start a new day with a new deranged battle. But the last few days have reminded me. This fight is not just mine. It is all of our struggle, and don't fight alone. I am proud of the people I fight fascism with. Thanks for restoring me!
