Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

A quick reminder since Starfleet Academy was just released.
"Star Trek has gone full DEI."
Yes, it has, and it went full DEI, .. umm... (checks notes) September 8, 1966, and has never looked back.

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”
In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.
As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Guardsmen have a choice to make:
If you show up here, you'll have disgraced your uniform and tarnished your service, which you should no longer expect to be thanked for.
To be sure, saying "I won't do that" isn't an easy or consequence-free choice. But it's one you'll be judged on.

If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

In case y'all missed it - Utah Republicans ordered a study on transgender healthcare, expecting it to come back unsupportive.
Instead, it found that trans youth care was safe and effective, and that transgender youth need it.
Whoops.

Utah lawmakers’ own study found gender-affirming care benefits trans youth. Will they lift the treatment ban?

Chris Murphy calls Kristi Noem on the carpet and SHREDS her.
Brilliantly, incisively, THOROUGHLY.
It will come to nothing, because the GOP refuses to act.
But he is on the record. I don’t know what the fuck else can be done.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything,
Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT.
