once we have a supermajority in congress and retake the white house, finally we will be able to not do something about the police for realpolitik reasons

Emerging from his viewing of the UNRELEASED Epstein case files at Justice Dept, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) says: "The Dept of Justice has been in a cover-up mode for months... trying to sweep the entire thing under the rug"

BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors

this handful of independent journalists (my former colleagues at Motherboard) do more impactful journalism than 75% of the corporate tech press on a fraction of the budget

Bad news is KOSA passed committee. The good news is there was more opposition than expected. Pressure works. Keep calling. Keep emailing.

Taylor Lorenz@taylorlorenz.bsky.social

KOSA is back along with 17 other dangerous censorship and surveillance laws that congress is trying to ram through. CALL UR REPRESENTATIVE TODAY AND TELL THEM —no KOSA —do not repeal Section 230 —no online digital ID laws —no age verification laws CALL NOW!!!! We are about to lose the internet

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice. This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Am I crazy for seeing IDF soldiers' treatment of Palestinians and US soldiers' treatment of Iraqis to be more similar than different

Replying to @govpritzker.illinois.gov

​I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation.

Too often, we talk about homelessness as if it's natural or inevitable. The truth is that it's a political choice. When then-Gov. Cuomo cut the Advantage program rather than tax his wealthy donors, his decision sent thousands of New York families into shelters.

During my town hall, someone asked me what they could do to stand up to authoritarianism. Despite what the cynics say, you have power. All it takes is one person speaking up for somebody else. It is small acts that can change the course of this country.

Kinda crazy that brown people were kidnapped off the street for their political speech but it took a rich white man being threatened with losing his TV program for people to care enough to do something about it

And when we see transphobia we tell them to sit down! “But, but-“ SIT DOWN.

HotAppleKai@hotapplekai.bsky.social

We need to start speaking up- no- YELLING to support and defend trans people. If you're in the USA, call your legislators. Literally email and call your representatives. Cis people have the loudest voices right now and those voices MUST be used to protect trans people.

Ofus reposted

anyone who uses tragedy to attempt to take away trans health care is a genocidal maniac who wants to inflict pain on an entire community

Ofus reposted

Anyone who looks at America in 2025 and thinks, "maybe we can fix this by throwing trans people under the bus" 1) doesn't have the brains to understand what's going on or how we got here 2) doesn't have the stomach for any of the fights ahead and 3) is vice signaling to their MAGA friends.
