Despite her recently acquired and extremely vehement anti-LGBT stances, Mace does have a strong personal investment in opposing sexual violence against cis women—a position that has alienated her from many in her party. It’s conspicuous to me that this is one way the MAGA coalition is fracturing.

In February 2025, Mills was investigated for domestic violence against his mistress. In August, 2025, another woman sued Mills, alleging that he had threatened her with revenge porn. Mace has pushed for greater transparency into sexual harassment investigations and payouts in Congress.

Tenet Media Indicted by DOJ Sept 2024

DOJ is being weaponized against our elections AND Trump's opponents. They are just getting started.

First, the Court takes a step back from its assessment of the particular categorical exclusions invoked and emphasizes the animating text of NEPA. The claim that the conversion of a commercial warehouse equipped with four toilets and two water fountains and designed for cargo storage into a detention center capable of housing over 500 people is the type of action that would not “normally . . . significantly affect the quality of the human environment” is, bluntly, absurd. See 42 U.S.C. § 4336e(1); see also ECF 15-1, at 16; ECF 15-13, at 4; ECF 34, at 10; ECF 15-4, at 66. As such, even before the Court examines the text of those exclusions, Defendants’

Friends, is it good when a judge tells you your argument is, "bluntly, absurd"?

Is it good when the judge says your proposal "raises a red flag"?

In red states, anti-immigrant bills are failing as businesses push back Most of the roughly 200 bills targeting immigrants around the country this year have stalled or died, with help from business and Christian groups.

This hatred is Trump's doing. Recall 2024 when he demanded Republican legislators vote against the bipartisan immigration reform bill so that he could manufacture a crisis to run on. Back in KY, GOP candidates running to replace Mitch McConnell are all banking on hating brown ppl to help them win.

I know historians aren’t supposed to predict the future, but sometimes the patterns are really clear.

If you kill your wife, you don't get to be a husband anymore Some lessons from the media coverage of Dr. Cerina Fairfax and Vice Mayor Nancy Metayer's murders.

My latest.

I’ve been watching the media coverage of the murders of Dr. Cerina Fairfax and Vice Mayor Nancy Metayer.

One way media can fight back against male violence:

If you kill your wife, you don’t get to be called a “husband” any more.

You’re her killer.

these are immensely self absorbed men who pine for nazi germany and apartheid south africa — stagnant, backwards regimes btw — because they imagine themselves the masters of the universe.

Also extremely cool for the fascist manifesto company to be deeply embedded in the military and national security apparatus.

I’m sure this will end well

Absolutely.

"These people are stealing your tax money, robbing you of services you paid for to enrich themselves. I will stop that."

That's a pretty simple and effective message.

I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas ruling on cases related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup.

Or ruling on cases related to government regulations and a wealth tax knowing he took gifts from billionaires.

It's a disgrace.

Behind Trump’s Public Bravado on the War, He Grapples With His Own Fears The president’s impulsive style has never been tested in a sustained military conflict, and he’s been ruminating on Jimmy Carter’s failure in Iran.

WSJ Should have highlighted this from piece.
"Aides kept the president out of the room as they got minute-by-minute updates because they believed his impatience wouldn’t be helpful, instead updating him at meaningful moments, a senior administration official said."

This was shit we were fighting twenty years ago. More than that, actually.

Not many people know this, but the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is responsible for making sure the coal industry is never inconvenienced. Pretty sure it's part of the oath he swore.

It's extremely disturbing to see most media outlets, and most people on Bluesky, pushing the lie that "it's one Democrat's fault that the war powers resolution failed."

It failed by 1 vote because, as soon as it was clear that their votes weren't needed, 3 Republicans didn't vote.

Much of this story details that the Irish government provides stopover status for SU deportation flights, underlining that the US govt relies on other govts to facilitate its immigration enforcement

If the Trump Admin don’t radically change their stance on Ukraine, stop supporting Russia and start supporting Ukraine, US will not have one single friend left in Europe.

This is the last wake up call for Trump, from the most pro-American president in Europe.

30% of the population in St Petersburg is planning to leave Russia, mainly bc internet is cut

Discontent inside Russia is growing 👇

Such an important point about the “viewpoint diversity” fetish.

He’s asking this question in context knowing the answer, but it’s worth saying. Black students, trans students, and many other groups face very real discrimination on a regular basis at law schools. But no one has stepped forward with a sovereign wealth fund to help them.

This is also why US lifting sanctions on Russian oil amidst the Iran war, as a measure to bring oil prices down, is a complete bluff.

It changes nothing bc the supply/demand ratio is not affected by sanctions.

There is only one reason for this:
Trump wants to help Putin.

The real impact of Ukrainian strikes on Russias oil infrastructure is not the oil price, but the physical capacity to move the product to market.

The red dots are tankers waiting outside Ust Luga, unable to enter the port facilities to fill up.

This has longtime devastating effects on #Russia.

If this actually happens, it may rank as the single most corrupt act in the history of American politics. I cannot believe this is even under discussion.
