Lia Thomas did nothing wrong. She followed the rules and competed fairly and honorably. UPenn's leadership are cowards.

Concentration camps with no privacy, guarded by the military, in terrible climate, on indigenous lands. This happened to Japanese Americans. And of course indigenous peoples were “removed” to reservations, that is to say, camps. This is who we always have been as a country.

as much as I like my congressman, and as much as the Democratic Party chases polling, it’s confounding why the very unpopular immigration enforcement regime and the fact we’re building concentration camps is not at the top of this list

I really struck a nerve here. I stand by what I said.

Rubio on X: Last night, another 10 criminals from the MS-13 and Tren de Aragua Foreign Terrorist Organizations arrived in El Salvador.  The alliance between @POTUS and President @nayibbukele has become an example for security and prosperity in our hemisphere.

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process.

This is not lawful.

Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

This can’t happen soon enough. He’s an aspiring, modern-day Heinrich Himmler.

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego

This is, in addition to very obviously denying people benefits and clearly excluding the vast majority of seniors, a violation of federal law on accessibility, especially since X requires users to log in and agree to the terms of service to see published content.

Trump’s budget plan eviscerates weather and climate research, and it could be enacted immediately | CNN The cuts could cripple US industries — including agriculture — that depend on free, accurate weather and climate data and expert analysis.

Trump is destroying US weather forecasting and research because he dislikes the word "climate":
