MEMPHIS — last night Trump & @GovBillLee’s (un)Safe Task Force TRAPPED the entire inside Club Legend to check their papers as they left. How is this not unconstitutional false imprisonment? Welcome to Trump & Lee’s America. 🇺🇸 Original Post: www.facebook.com/share/v/18yV...
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social took you 5 minutes to cower to the representatives of the genocidal warmonger state of Israel.
@skepchick.org I thought I remembered you mentioning a podcast you host recently, but I can't find anything now.
@realbillmaher.bsky.social You think we're bringing happiness to Iran? Fucking idiot.

Not gonna lie, the radio silence from the Mamdani administration over NYU and what he can do is troubling, and I say this as someone who wrote glowingly about his campaign.
1. Mayor Mamdani promised to hold hospitals accountable that capitulate to Trump. He promised funding to trans youth care in the city. There are very real steps he can take right now to maintain care for trans youth after NYU Langone's capitulation. It's time for Mamdani to uphold his promises.
@av0l.bsky.social I don't understand the point of this article. Why are you just uncritically reporting what they say? Al Gores movie had some mistakes, but this conversation is insane bullshit. Bluesky has loads of climate scientists you could just ask one. offthefrontpage.com/joe-rogan-sl...

1. If you've scrolled social media lately, you've likely seem Democrats cheering for Gov. Gavin Newsom for trolling Trump relentlessly. You've also likely seen trans people terrified of a Newsom 2028 run. I explain why trans people are not feeling Newsom. Subscribe to support our journalism.

One of my favorite annual @democracynow.org traditions is that we always play this video of James Earl Jones reading Frederick Douglass's speech "What to the Slave is the 4th of July?" If you've never read or heard the speech, it's well worth your time.
I didn't realize until now that this excellent explainer on social housing was our next mayor of NYC Zoran Mamdani youtu.be/LVuCZMLeWko?...

In 2023, a Mexican girl with a life-threatening medical condition was allowed to enter the U.S. on humanitarian grounds. The Trump administration has now ordered her and her parents to leave the country. Her says that if her treatment is interrupted, “this could be fatal within a matter of days.”

When I started researching their methods of an entry, I thought finding 4 such cases would be an unbelievable crime and scandal. In the end, it’s apparent that at least four DOZEN were legal immigrants who came with advanced permission. www.cato.org/blog/50-vene...
