NEW: On Friday, the Texas Supreme Court made a comment on the state judicial code of conduct that says judges who refuse to conduct gay weddings "on a sincerely held religious belief" won't be sanctioned. It's part of a messy legal fight over gay marriage in Texas.

Here are my tips for planning #gaytravel when you're on a budget

terrifying, is there no one who will stand up against this terror?
Turning into a single issue voter for 2028, where the issue is which Democratic candidate will vow to nominate the most rabidly partisan, vengeful and hate-filled AG you can possibly imagine
If you listen to the actual audio, it's very clear that she didn't misspeak. She was told she was wrong, but she refused to listen and continued to double and triple down.
The least she can do is apologize and endorse the Democratic nominee even though he's Muslim. Whether she will is unclear.
They have made the world living hell for no reason whatsoever. People will ask why this happened in a decade and there will be tremendous effort to make it more complicated than “they were evil, stupid, and bored”
Yet another elected Democratic official violently arrested and detained by Trump’s ICE Gestapo.
This isn’t frog in boiling water.
This fascism is happening quickly, clearly, brazenly.
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.
It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo.
It’s cowardice.
you show signs of wanting to change the party for the better and they oust you, this party has learned absolutely nothing from 2016, from 2020, and from 2024 and never will
tired of friends (“friends” ugh) taking my ideas and running with them without credit or kindness
Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.
Find your closest rally on Saturday and go. You can tell your kids where you were on the other side of this. Outnumber him everywhere.

i love the night
i’m tired!!!
so many things have gone wrong in the past 28 hrs and I know exactly what set off this string of bad events and i’m annoyed at myself for allowing it to start with a stupid expensive coffee
maybe i’m late to the party, but i’m beginning to feel very worried about the levers and controls technology (and its overlords) has which is overpowering our societal consciousness.
how do we effectively function in society today so we remain human and pure and independent of outside influence?

If @aoc.bsky.social were the ranking member of oversight its actions would be getting a lot more attention.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.
Abrego Garcia is scared. Lisa Murkowski is just a coward. Big difference.
