  1. @wendythedruid "Mandates same-sex college roommates"? The entire bill is repulsive, but that part is simply absurd and can't possibly survive review in the courts (according to a guy who lacks any credentials for making such an assertion; namely, me). But it is ridiculous.

    The rash of legislation aimed at #trans kids—banning gender confirmation surgery, restricting bathroom choice, etc.–is clearly aimed at intimidating and humiliating children, and has to stop. (I'm less certain about rules prohibiting participation by trans athletes in gender-segregated sports: there are too few people affected, and too many questions to which I have no answer, for me to have an opinion there.)

    If we had a Supreme Court that wasn't filled with Supreme Douchebags, such clearly unconstitutional (and cruel) legislation would find no safe harbor.

  10. Federal #judges—especially at the district level—are practically all that's left standing between this administration and its goal of supplanting #democracy in favor of American-flavored #fascism. #Democrats have to take every possible action to delay or deny confirmations to the Federal bench.

    If Dems somehow manage to take the #Senate this November, we can shut down the appointment of unqualified right-wing nutjob judges that have characterized this administration, once and for all. Until then, we can only exact a toll for each such nomination, invoking cloture under Rule 22 and utilizing every minute of delay made possible under that procedure.

  11. I’ll say it again: Mahmoud Khalil is not an admirable person; he believes and says ignorant and hateful things.

    It is equally true that deporting him is a gross injustice, and should be prevented at all costs.

    That’s what it means to be American: standing up for the rights of terrible people, because if they have no rights, none of us do.

  12. I truly hope that American #Catholics aren't subjected to hatred and harassment as a result of Red Don's utterly idiotic and one-sided feud with the Pope. But if they are, I'm confident that #Jews like myself will stand by them. We understand what ignorant hatred can to do a community.

  13. The lesson I choose to take from the defeat of #fascism in #Hungary is that once people truly understand the consequences of choosing fascism; when they realize the issue is #freedom—not just this policy or that legislation, but rather the fundamental right to live without the boot of the state on their necks— they’ll embrace #democracy. Every. Time.

  14. The way to deal with hard decisions you know you’re going to face is to work out your response ahead of time. That way you have time to evaluate each option against your own model of the person you’d like to be, and to prepare yourself for the possible consequences of your decision. When the moment comes, you’re ready, not panicking over what to do.

    Act in haste, as the old saying goes, repent at leisure.

  19. Important note to members of the #military who happen to run across this post:

    With great respect for your service: pls consider that any order to destroy civilian infrastructure is an illegal order, which the UCMJ, international law, and basic humanity require you to reject. Not “permit”—“require”.

  21. House #Republicans don’t care how long you have to wait in the airport, as long as we aren’t requiring #ICE to act legally, responsibly, and professionally.

    I guess asking for the Constitution and precedent to apply to the king’s brute squads is simply too much.

    Republicans have given up on America, and hope that you will, too. See y’all in the streets tomorrow, letting them know that ain’t ever going to happen. Ever.

  22. Robert Mueller is dead. Cause of death was not disclosed: my money’s on “‘fell’ out a window”.

  23. Unpopular take: Attacking #Iran at this time is not per se a terrible idea. The regime is incredibly weak and the Iranian ppl are begging for our support in helping them throw off the terror mullahs and help them build a free nation.

    Unfortunately, this isn’t a theoretical exercise: how the war is conducted, its aims, and its consequences matter.

    Let’s face it: Bibi and Red Don are the last politicians you’d choose if your goal is a liberal-democratic Iran. These two criminals spend most of their time trying to destroy their own #democratic institutions.

    The mango Mussolini is working hard to create a new Iranian (probably right-wing, even theocratic) kleptocracy he can leverage for self-enrichment.

    To achieve this goal, he will sacrifice American lives, Israeli lives, and certainly innocent Iranian lives without a second’s thought.

    The ONLY acceptable outcome of this conflict is a free, democratic Iran.

  24. “According to two of the people briefed on the situation, military officials deployed [anti-drone] technology earlier this week against what they thought was a cartel drone, but which turned out to be a party balloon.🎈 “

    The airspace above and around El Paso was completely closed to all traffic — including Medevac and law enforcement — for several hours today due entirely to the utter incompetence of this administration.

    The real story? The military was testing anti-#drone weaponry without bothering to inform or coordinate with the #FAA. There was no way to know if the tech represented a threat to commercial traffic, so the FAA used the only tool available to it: a complete shutdown.

    The story the administration told us? That “Mexican cartels” were invading the US with drones. 🙄🤦🏼🤣

  25. Hey, #ICE recruits:

    1. You’re never going to see that “$50k bonus”. Never.

    2. You will all lose your jobs simultaneously on 1-21-2029. Good luck finding something else with ICE on your resume.

    3. Everybody in the country hates you.

    4. Many of you may face prosecution.

    5. You’ll live the rest of your lives haunted by the faces of the children you mistreated, the families you broke apart, the protestors you murdered.

    So, my question:

    Was it worth it. . . ?

  26. Red Don cannot be allowed to realize his threat of a Republican “takeover” of state #elections.

    He is advocating for nothing less than the violent overthrow of the Constitution of the United States. Simply promoting such an idea is #sedition (18 U.S.C. § 2385) and is punishable by fines and up to 20 years in prison.

    Any attempt at all to advance this seditious agenda should immediately result in impeachment, removal, and arrest and detention pending trial.

  27. SEEKING #ASYLUM IS NOT A CRIME.

    Therefore, asylum seekers are not criminals. They are not in this country “illegally”. (And by the way, most other legal routes have been closed off or made inaccessible to all but the white and/or wealthy.)

    This child and his family did nothing wrong. Nothing. Yet this administration illegally incarcerated a kindergartner and his father.

    These are #Gestapo tactics. We know how this movie ends.

  28. 2026-01-30: It was a beautiful day for a revolution! Blue skies, warm sun, an estimated 2,000 lovely people peacefully —even joyously —protesting the fascist regime and its masked Gestapo thugs.

    All of this in red South Orange County. The veil is off: Americans see the true face of this administration and it makes them sick. So we find one another and join together to remind ourselves of what this country could be like, what it should be like, and what, fate willing, if we work together, it will be like again soon.

  29. A quick reminder:

    #Immigration is good for America.

    Murdering mothers and healthcare providers is not.

    Kidnapping people at work, at home, and on the street is not.

    Incarcerating 5-year-olds is not.

    Demanding ID from anybody with brown skin or an accent is not.

    I hope that clears things up.

    Instead of making campaign contributions masquerading as documentaries, how about making a documentary about people whom we actually admire. A couple of possibilities come to mind . . .

  32. Hotels probably already have the option to decline to serve ICE and other #terrorist organizations. But the idea that the Third Amendment protects hotels from state action to deny them that option is comforting.

  33. I’m so disappointed with the statement by the American #Jewish Committee on the regime’s reign of terror in #Minnesota. It expresses moral equivocation on the horrifying immigration policies of this govt, and moral equivalence between masked perpetrators and peaceful protestors.

    I remember when the #AJC spoke with clarity and passion in defense of civil liberties. I hope this respected and important organization can find its footing again—soon.
