they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

I'm honestly just sick. If you can stomach watching any of this footage & still let the words "more training" escape your mouth, I cannot ever forgive you. These are state-sanctioned street executions. This is the training.

Why universal child care is closer than ever in New York One of Zohran Mamdani’s most expensive ideas has surprising early momentum.

This isn't housing policy per se, but in a city where infant care averages $26k a year, universal child care would function as a massive, de facto housing subsidy—freeing up roughly $2,100 a month for rent.

More politicians need to grasp this: when it comes to "affordability," it's all connected.

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.

I Think Her Party Should Be Making Statements In Her Defense And The Greater Somali Community

Babies receive a Hepatitis B vaccine at birth because a mom can transmit the virus through childbirth. Not good. There are no negative consequences for the baby in receiving the vaccine.

RFK Jr is a dangerous ignorant arrogant fool. Talk to the doctor you trust

A random community theatre manager in suburban Minnesota, having just watched a bunch of children casually destroy each other, when the smart one with the blanket says “Lights, please?”: *cracks knuckles* Okay, on me, spot up on Van Pelt.

This man literally had a better case than the one filed against Tish James. And this man... did NOT have a good case.

I guess free speech and access to vaccines won’t be top of mind when my family is racially profiled and “accidentally” put into a camp 🫠😜😭

Anyway, now we know what the FCC thinks is in the public interest:

Fox host advocating for executing homeless people? Yes

ABC comic suggesting Trumpers are using a death cynically? No

Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause By ignoring the rhetoric and actions of the Turning Point USA founder, pundits and politicians are sanitizing his legacy.

"Yes, Yes, to Ta-Nehisi Coates, you listen."

This is fucked up

Cuz ya know what was really great for my kids: their mom suffering from crippling ppd that was quickly getting worse until I got my meds

The way my 9-month old and I were shoved by a city employee trying to avoid a picket line this morning has done nothing to endear me to the administration’s position here. I will now stand in front of a bus for DC 33 members who were lovely to my kids!

“and every June you’ll have to spend a day rapidly reloading the page to see how many of your rights have expired” -the Founders probably

Good things can still happen. Seeing this matters now more than ever!

wait is a Good Political Thing actually going to happen??

The fact that white PA primary voters did not consider his having held an unarmed Black jogger at gunpoint to be disqualifying is why he is in office. I can not claim to be disappointed in Fetterman, because this is what I expected of Fetterman.

all this fascism is terrible for my anxiety disorder

If you are racist against black people, black people are not going to be cool with you (with the exception of grifters and self-loathing white fetishists) and they are not going to want to spend time with you. Yes, even celebrities. The fact that anti-black racists are outraged by this is hilarious.

Screams into void, but I guess I won’t be as worried about my baby’s teeth because measles will have gotten her first (or any other number of easily preventable diseases)

Literal same

I have always and will always love Fiona Apple. That is all.

NYT headline: “Kennedy Advises New Parents to ‘Do Your Own Research’ on Vaccines” Subheader: “In an interview with Dr. Phil, the health secretary offered false information about vaccine oversight and revealed a lack of basic understanding of new drug approvals.”

“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?”

Bunker Rule No. 1: The people in control of the bunker are lying about what’s outside the bunker.

People will argue that we should be willing to defy the law in the name of justice while also treating criminalized people as disposable. It's incoherent.

okay now that you all have gotten a taste of America's rational and predictable new trade policy, everyone who wants to build your new factories here just form an orderly line

So much ink has been spilled over the fact that the people shipped off to CECOT “aren’t really gang members.” But in local policing and prosecution, liberals enthusiastically rubber stamp the same fucking farce. “Innocence” is racialized, you can’t win with this frame

Most people in the United States who have never faced housing insecurity have no idea how easy it is to evict someone in this country.

Before the pandemic, every US state evicted more people annually than all of mainland Europe COMBINED.

Many states don't even allow counterclaims in evictions.
