Please remove me from this list. It's way too simplistic to capture my views.

I read the β€œSave America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this summary helps raise awareness. 1/

I kinda hope someone tells him this is happening and that is because JD Vance is trying to get him out of the way. I could see him trying to take JD down with him if it sticks.

Also Axios for publishing the ramblings of a senile old man who pretty much always lies. They had the gall to claim a "scoop" when Trump said Iran is "about to surrender."

Is that a thing they'd do? I sort of doubt it. My kids say I should be embarrassed to go near a Target, but I think the money was already spent. Maybe they sell Visa cards or something like Safeway does. I haven't been there in a long time

And if it were to pass, he’s setting himself up to steal the election. He’s going to lie about voter fraud & try to claim the election is β€œrigged” regardless, because that’s what the far right authoritarian party has done for decades now.

You'd think! I doubt it'll happen tho. It's not really top of my or anyone's list. I'd be happy with saner immigration policy, a social safety net, and not funding war and murder around the globe, but yes making tax filing easy for most would be so easy to do if the political will existed.

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose β€˜targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

Biden started direct file which made it easier. Trump shut it down. The h&r block and TurboTax lobby is too powerful. They oppose the government making filing taxes easy or letting the government just tell you what they think you owe and you pay or dispute it and file your own.

U.S. Recognition of a Commander’s Duty to Punish War Crimes This article explores the United States' recognition of the doctrine of command responsibility. The doctrine has been invoked by those alleging that President Trump’s pardons of U.S. personnel convict...

And as a fun related legal fact, the failure of a commander to punish war crimes by his subordinates is also a war crime under the doctrine of command responsibility.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:

Denial of quarterβ€”even the declaration of no quarterβ€”is a war crime.

And recognized as such by the US Government.

Median household income for CA in 2024 was around 100k. I'm not saying I agree with her & I'm not a Porter fan. Still, the data I saw indicated that any household making below 100k is in the bottom half.

Horrific. Georgia police charged a woman with murder after she allegedly used misoprostol. Hospital may have reported her.

@pregnancyjust.bsky.social calls it β€œan unprecedented murder charge for an alleged abortion, even though no law in the state of Georgia permits such a charge." bit.ly/46W2Ezb

People now remember the covid years fondly. "It wasn't that bad," "the govt sent us money," "I got to work from home," etc & forget how scary & terrible it was under Trump when he was asking if we could inject bleach. They also forget who was president & mismanaged it in 2020 & who voted for help.

This isn't a federal thing. It's another example of them saying what they want to do & everyone assuming they're all powerful. It's done county by county and there are many counties that would oppose most guardianships because guess who pays unless these veterans can? At least for now, it's bluster.

1. do you really think that no ethnic/religious minority has ever faced baseless persecution?

2. have you heard of...the entirety of Jewish Diaspora history?

3. just because "Israel" is in the congregation's name does not mean it has anything to do with the State of Israel. they're American Jews.

Wasn't there a US plane that crashed today in an accident that may have injured or killed some soldiers? Saying that he's in great spirits the same day that happened is appallingly tone deaf imo. I know Trump never pretended to care, but now his cabinet is mimicking his lies that all is great. 🀬

CJEU press release:
Member State legislation which does not permit the amendment of the
gender data of one of its nationals who has exercised his or her right to
freedom of movement is contrary to EU law
A Bulgarian national was registered at birth as being male, with a name, personal identification number and identity documents corresponding to that sex. She currently lives in Italy, where she has begun hormone therapy, and now presents herself as a woman.
She instituted proceedings before the Bulgarian courts seeking a declaration that she is a female person and to have her civil status data amended on her birth certificate. Despite the medical opinions and legal assessments confirming the gender identity claimed, her request was rejected.
According to national legislation, as interpreted by the plenary assembly of civil chambers of the Bulgarian Supreme Court of Cassation, the term β€˜sex’ must be understood in its biological sense, excluding any amendment of the particulars relating to sex, name and identification number. The public interest, based on the moral and/or religious values of Bulgarian society, thus prevails over the interests of transgender persons.
Hearing the dispute, the Bulgarian Supreme Court of Cassation has doubts as to the compatibility of that legislation with EU law and has referred the matter to the Court of Justice.
In its judgment, the Court holds that EU law precludes legislation of a Member State which does not permit the amendment of the gender data in the civil status registers of one of its nationals who has exercised his or her right to move and reside freely in another Member State.
The Court emphasises first of all that, while the issue of identity documents falls within the competence of the Member States, they must exercise that competence in compliance with EU law...

Huge trans rights ruling from the EU's top court - if someone moves to another EU country and transitions, their home country can't refuse to amend their registration details to match their lived gender identity

100,000 trans people & allies fill central London for Trans Pride.

Mainstream media: nothing

Thousands of trans people & allies fill Wembley Arena for pro-trans gig with massive names like Sophie Ellis-Bextor & Sugarbabes.

Mainstream media: nothing.

This is what extreme media bias looks like.
