L’assistant du réseau social X (ex-Twitter), racheté par Elon Musk à l’automne 2022, a fait l’objet de plusieurs signalements ces derniers mois pour avoir généré des images pédopornographiques et diffusé du contenu négationniste.

If you're not familiar with just how unhinged the "Gender Critical" movement is, this thousand strong class action thing might just seem like a random ass-pull, but what it is is that they believe there's going to be some moment where all trans people will just suddenly stop being trans all at once.

The obvious reason Kat Abu is both fundraising really well and also polling so badly for how much she's raising is that she's campaigning everywhere *but* IL-09. I've seen a lot of people who are zoomed-out and don't know the district say they wish they could vote for her but they live outside IL-09

Also, they should not shoot us in the face. I can’t emphasize that part enough. I would say not being shot in the face is even MORE important to me than affordable healthcare
Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress gave $30 billion to ICE.
You know what also would have cost $30 billion? Extending those tax credits to help people afford health care this year.
We should repeal Trump’s money for ICE and lower costs instead.

Yesterday, I drove refugees that had been shipped off to Texas all the way back home to St. Paul
Seeing them reunite with their families reminded me this is their home.
So keep sending them to Texas. I’ll keep driving ‘em back and introducing them to Bucc-ee’s and KC barbecue along the way.
