Another one from me: The Trump administration has omitted data about trans people from prison sexual violence reports.

Trump DOJ omits data about trans people from prison sexual violence reports
The reports exclude any demographic data, days after a memo revealed plans to dismantle prison rape protections for trans and intersex people

DHS agents investigating sexual crimes against children have been redeployed to the immigrant crackdown.

A probe into the black market for Iranian oil sold to finance terrorism has been slowed down because of the shift.

And efforts to combat human smuggling have languished.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

there is a point here i want to amplify. the free speech defenders of the mainstream seem to have no awareness that actual free speech is often more fractious and destabilizing than civil and respectful. a society where speech is genuinely free isn’t the deferential space they want it to be.

Trump the all-time-great subtext-to-text translator in American politics. Rotting brain just popping off random confessions like this while he can't even comb his own hair.
Trump minimizes domestic abuse during a talk at the Museum of the Bible: "Things that take place in the home, they call crime ... If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime, see?"

A photo of a pro-Trump protester on the streets of Portland in the summer of **2018.** The leader of the group this person was associated with was a frequent guest on Fox News and made the rounds on the "conservative" lecture circuit. "RWDS" stands for "right wing death squad."

This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law.

May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

MULLIN: There was a sweetheart plea deal that was struck in 2009 under Obama

TAPPER: No. It was 2008. The US attorney was Alex Acosta. He was a Bush appointee. He went on to become Trump's secretary of labor

M: Who was in office at the time?

T: Bush

M: No. Obama was in office

TAPPER: Not true

Are you fucking kidding me?

Trump is steamrolling this country for personal profit. Democrats should be doing everything in their power to win a majority in both chambers to impeach this man and push bold, popular, progressive legislation.

This is a disgrace.

The due process arguments are obviously critically important. But is it going to come up at these arguments that WE ARE NOT ACTUALLY AT WAR?

There's something even more maddening than usual about watching this cheap, pampered little thug presuming to lecture a guy who's worth 50 of him.
BREAKING: There has just been a huge argument between Zelenskyy, Trump & Vance in the Oval Office.

Trump calls Zelenskyy disrespectful and says he “is no position to dictate” to the US.

Trump raises his voice to Zelenskyy. He can’t stand someone standing up to him.

This is unbelievable.

JD Vance is truly so greasy and weaselly that one struggles to recognize his humanity.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

I'm writing a piece on Trumpite intellectuals making the "spiritual case" for the conquest of Greenland, that it will spur a rebirth of the "pioneering frontier spirit" in America lost in the 1890s. And seeing now they're moving Inaugural inside because it's too cold. So yeah, not so sure abt this.

Do you think these companies are going to stop with trans folks? They're going to enable hate speech and dehumanizing rhetoric against anyone who's not an able bodied straight white Christian man.

The time to speak out is now.
A lot of folks sound like this right now:

"First they came for trans people, and I did not speak out because I think they're gross.

Then, they came for the immigrants and I again did not speak out because they need to follow the law"

That's what propaganda does.

If you’re confused why rich powerful capitalists are currently tripping over themselves to bend the knee to Donald Trump, there’s scene from House Of Cards where president Frank Underwood tells billionaire Raymond Tusk, “You may have all the money, Raymond, but I have all the men with guns.”

Notably: This is taking place in a state — Florida — with a law that not only bans gender-affirming medical care for trans minors but also has restricted provision of the care for adults.
The FL Department of Corrections is attempting to "reverse" the gender identity of transgender people in its custody, referring to trans identities as "short-term delusions" and withholding hormone therapy. Reviving psychiatric theories of the 1950s, they blame trans identities on "childhood trauma"
