The allegations against Donald Trump for sexual assault seem to have a common denominator: He is physically violent and intentionally inflicts pain on his victims. He likes to slam women and girls up against doors and walls as he roughly manhandles them. Donald Trump is a sick and twisted person.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

Jesse Ventura: “If Donald Trump would have gone in the military, he would have been the guy that wet his bed, cried for his mom, went hysterical, and would be carted out in the middle of the night. The man’s a coward. He’s a bully. All bullies are cowards. That’s why they’re bullies”

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was driving his construction crew to work when an ICE officer shot and killed him in Houston. He wasn’t even the person ICE was looking for. Now Texas voters are leaving their “I Voted” stickers at his memorial. #BlueWaveIn10Days

Lethal is the power of one man who doesn’t keep the promise of the oath he took! God help you Chief Justice Roberts, atonement is going to be painful!

Aaron's relentless work has made all of us so much more aware of just how bat sh*t crazy Donald Trump is. When too many headlines, news stories & pundit panels fail to accurately report on Trump (& his admin & GOP lawmakers), Aaron's clips provide an essential reality check.

I'm proud Public Notice has become a bastion of sanity amidst an ocean of sanewashing, a place left-of-center readers can reliably turn to for deep understanding of what’s happening in the American right. Here's to the next five years!

At a time in history when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, democracy, and decency, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction — fawning over the most dangerous authoritarian America has ever witnessed. Do not forget this.

Madrid ha vuelto a salir masivamente a la calle para defender el derecho a la vivienda y para exigir medidas frente a los alquileres abusivos, la especulación y el negocio de los fondos buitre. La vivienda es un derecho. La organización y la movilización continúan.

TWS: I have two questions, asked in good faith: 1) If FTM occurs during or after puberty, isn’t it unfair to require CIS women to compete with those transwomen because they have already developed much or all of a CIS male’s skeleton and musculature? 1/2

@graylemur.bsky.social

2) If a trans woman retains a penis, don’t CIS women have a significant basis to fear seeing penises in their bathrooms and changing rooms, with many women having a history of rape? Please don’t dogpile. I respect all trans people and support their causes. But these two questions need discussion.

It’s been a year since ICE drove a car through a crowd at Broadview, leading to the federal indictment of myself and five others. Today, those of us who could returned. The state can try all it wants, but it can’t silence us or our community’s fight for justice.

For Californians: Proposition 40 (the billionaire “wealth tax”) is a horrible idea. If passed, it would be mired in litigation over what is “wealth,” who determines it and how, and whether it is constitutional. CA wouldn’t see any benefit for years, if ever. Plus, humongous litigation outlays.

NEW: Yesterday, 404 Media broke news of the FBI breach. Now, we've discovered it has exposed the FBI's own hacking unit. The FBI's Remote Operations Unit (ROU) is a highly secretive team of hackers making exploits and tools to break into target’s devices. Some of its members just got exposed.

Can we please stop calling Tilly Norwood an “AI generated actress”? It is an AI, not an “actress,” never mind that outmoded usage (it’s “actor,” when it’s a person). Calling the AI an “actress” is absurd and demeaning to real people who make their livings acting.

Fascism came to America via a lowlife TV huckster, a phony billionaire, a pathological liar, and a lifetime con artist who planned, launched, and directed the Jan. 6 coup from the Oval Office—and virtually the entire Republican Party fell in line behind him. Vote out all these GOP-complicit cowards.
