Sol Waspman: Vespid Attorney

Democratic congresswoman Kathy Castor of FL-14 becomes the latest anti-transgender Democrat. When asked if she supports "biological males in girls sports," she cheerfully and forcefully says "THE ANSWER IS NO!" with a huge smile on her face, laughing. The number keeps growing.

This would be bad enough, but we are beyond even this now. We have entire blue states enacting anti-trans policy, and entire State Democratic Parties censoring their LGBTQ+ caucus from criticizing candidates on trans issues.

After a woman obtained public records indicating a Google datacenter would cover only one-third of the cost of a new solar plant to power the facility — contradicting its promises that ratepayers would not be on the hook — her electricity company sued her.

ICE just kidnapped a woman at LAX airport Saturday Oct 3, 12:50AM. A community member was able to record when several ICE goons who refused to identify themselves grabbed the woman, put her into a van and then drove off.

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

The federal administration's decision to eliminate limits on climate pollution from power plants is catastrophic. These are some of our nation's most essential climate policies. We will take action to protect them.

In an incredible move, Saddle Lake Cree Nation in Alberta, Canada has announced a gender-affirming care clinic for trans youth, asserting tribal sovereignty and defying the region's ban. It is one of the biggest cross-movement solidarity moments in Canada. Subscribe to support our journalism.

My heart breaks over the loss of Pierre Damas Bel, a 20-year-old who passed away far too soon. Our immigrant communities should not be living in fear and under this level of mental stress. Congress needs to act and restore TPS to these communities.

The Trump administration just finalized its rule stripping gender-affirming care from Medicaid and CHIP. Advocates say there's still time to fight: it takes effect in October, and federal courts have already struck down two previous attempts to do this. The latest from our journalist S. Baum.

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF. This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy. Every member of Congress must vote NO.

Corruption reaches far and wide with this regime. 🤬

They know they did it and they are responsible. Which is why they will continue to stonewall this. Good for the reporter to keep asking about it and not let this go, because they are counting on people just moving on.

The White House was never supposed to be a palace. George Washington and architect James Hoban deliberately rejected the lavish style of European monarchies. Instead, they designed a President’s House that reflected the ideals of a republic: dignified, restrained, and accountable to the people.

Another not to be missed piece from @melissagiragrant.com. "If you want to put a stop to immigrant detention, it is likely happening near you, whether a private facility like Delaney Hall, a purpose-built camp like in the Florida Everglades, or more quietly, in a town jail leasing space to ICE."

What if... Oh wait that really did happen. 🥴🤤

One of the restaurants in my area that was raided by ICE a few days ago put up a Gofundme to scrape together the money for legal fees to hire legal representation. I hope they get to come home soon.

Saw this on FB. If you’ve ever enjoyed Aqua Teen, please help if you can. Someone who’s such an integral part of one of Adult Swim’s most beloved shows deserves much better than this.

Russia choosing to bomb this place is psychotic behavior The ONLY outcome would be the release of radioactive poison that will hurt innocent people. There is no military reason to attack Chornobyl. They just want to cause suffering.

This is insanity on full display.

1. This weekend, a federal judge permanently blocked funding threats to providers and hospitals that provide trans youth care. The judge also blocked "any similar policy." Hospitals have NO excuse and must return to providing care under many blue state laws. Subscribe to support our journalism.
