The Administration has threatened investigation and charges under the FACE Act for protestors - and Don Lemon — for a protest at a St. Paul church where one of the pastors is an ICE official.
There are stupid responses to this, which get on my last fucking nerve, and arguable responses to this.

Here's Trump judicial nominee Justin Olson today, admitting than in 2015, he gave a sermon in which he said that “marriage was not intended for all people,” including “our handicapped friends or our persons with physical disabilities that might prevent the robust marriage that we’re called to.”

what is extra frustrating about the continued efforts to kill it is that none of them understand this
everyone attacking it is convinced that killing section 230 will allow them to remove some part of the internet that they don't like, be it content moderation or sex predators, but it's much worse

Bluntly, Section 230 is almost literally the law that the entire internet rests upon, it makes it possible for user generated content to exist on the internet, it’s incredibly important, and genuinely we must defend it at all costs. This place literally would not exist without it.

Trump is filling his government with Nazis, consolidating authoritarian power, and eroding democracy at every chance.
And yet these 86 House Democrats voted for a right-wing messaging amendment to say that the real authoritarians are the socialists.

They misidentified the intern. The judge told them they had misidentified the intern. But instead of double checking, they took that as an affront to their authority. So they surrounded the judge's car and threatened to smash the windows to get to the intern.

Centuries before other galaxies were known to exist, astronomers called them “spiral nebulas.” Today the defunct term still sparks confusion
