The self-congratulatory tone of this press conference is astonishing. Law enforcement misidentified the initial suspect—again—then allowed the actual perpetrator to be completely in the wind for 48 hours, during which time he went on to kill again
Officials say the suspected Brown University shooter was also responsible for the killing of an MIT professor at his Massachusetts home this week. Follow live updates: https://cnn.it/4s2xLSq

But he’s about to kick 2 million Texans off their healthcare right before Christmas.

This is precisely how fascism works, by grabbing at and taking away a little more freedom whenever events lend themselves to it. Bit by bit you lose your rights, until you turn around and realize the road you're on has been long, and democracy is well behind you over the horizon.
The admin is wasting no crisis... Sec. Kristi Noem said she is suspending the diversity visa lottery program (DV-1) after the Brown University suspect entered the U.S. through it in 2017.

Pediatric phalloplasty is something that takes place when there is severe genital injury or a congenital condition. I have not been able to find a single report of phalloplasty performed on a transgender minor.
This is grotesque fear-mongering.

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

BREAKING: The Democratic National Committee will NOT release its long-awaited autopsy on Trump's 2024 win. The report is completed but Dem leaders decided it could distract from their winning streak, so it will remain secret. Not good.

No dean in the history of academia has ever told a job applicant they were being blocked be side they were white because (a) that never actually happens and (b) if it did there would be a massive lawsuit.
But thank you, Naomi Wolf, for confirming that this is something the Crazies believe.

My theory that as members of congress are increasingly batshit it will increasingly select for even more batshit people who can tolerate the job is doing pretty well
Congressional retirements at a historic pace in both chambers. Per @ballotpedia.org , 50 Members have now announced. ballotpedia.org/List_of_U.S.... I gather it’s a miserable era to be in Congress for many incumbents.
