I would argue fear of any mass transit is actually just a mark of elitism... Which is ultimately a reflection of low moral character.

A less than 2-pound preemie from what sounds like a middle of the night emergency C-section is not "fine." Don't let the forced birthers who won't give a damn about him now that he's here turn this into some kind of grim victory for women as incubators.

A tweet by David Leavitt (@David_Leavitt ) reads, "REMEMBER WHEN THE MOST SCANDALOUS THING OUR PRESIDENT DID WAS WEAR A TAN SUIT?" The tweet includes a photo of Barack Obama standing at a podium, smiling broadly. He is wearing a light tan suit with a white shirt and a striped tie. Behind him is the Seal of the President of the United States, featuring an image of the White House, and an American flag is visible to the left.

While looking damn good in it!

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident.

We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

Anyone with strong opinions can be an expert, apparently.

AOC Rips “Tyrannical and Un-American” Arrest of Mahmoud Khalil Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had a serious warning about the ICE arrest of Palestinian activist (and U.S. green card holder) Mahmoud Khalil.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortex condemned ICE’s detainment of Mahmoud Khalil, calling it a “tyrannical” move.

“If the federal government can disappear a legal US permanent resident without reason or warrant, then they can disappear US citizens too."

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

AOC laughs at Republicans avoiding town halls because of Trump and Musk Rep. Ocasio-Cortez mocked Republicans over guidance advising them to avoid in-person town halls as Americans rage over President Donald Trump’s and Elon Musk’s haphazard and authoritarian power grab.

“Right wingers have been trolling me and disrupting our town halls for years,” said Rep. @aoc.bsky.social. “Anyone who lets this stuff be an excuse to hide from the public and stop doing town halls is not cut out for the job.” www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/sh...

Here’s the reality: This government—despite what they’d have us believe—cannot simply do whatever it wants. The moment we accept that bullshit, we become complicit in this blatantly authoritarian move by the president and his administration.

With a loud, collective voice, we must say: fuck this!
