@flavorflav.bsky.social Here's another great look at women's sports.
Yes highly recommend!!!
By the way, if you enjoyed watching the US Women's hockey team kick butt in Milan, you will definitely enjoy Take the Ice, my documentary about the early days of professional women's ice hockey.

NEW: I spoke to the journalist and researcher Pat Ellington, Jr., whose singular work expands the fullness and depth of Black history through Francisco Lindor, Ronald Acuña, and the global impact of baseball.

Heads up folks: @thetnholler.bsky.social posted an AI-generated video this morning that was a deepfake of the captain of the U.S. women’s hockey team, and they seem to be promoting it as if it’s a real video. So watch out for that and don’t spread fakes.
I wrote about why the Trump administration's antisemitism envoy is lying about Holocaust history to avoid the possibility that people might draw parallels between the condition of Jews in occupied Europe and the condition of migrants hiding from ICE today. religiondispatches.org/2026/02/05/f...
“If I am killed doing this, throw my body at the White House, martyr the shit out of me & raise hell. Do not be sad. Do not think I would do anything differently. I would do it over & over again — this is too important to sit down & shut up and not do anything.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
"A 2-year-old boy was breastfeeding in detention. One 6-year-old boy had leukemia. An 8-year-old girl began wetting the bed. A 14-year-old girl engaged in self-harm...None of these children or their parents had a criminal history anywhere in the world."

There is a vigil in 45 minutes. I am still feeling sick from tear gas and not going.
But at 7pm CST, whoever you are and where ever you are. Go to your street corner. Light a candle. If you are someone who prays, pray.
Shine a light for Minnesota!🕯

If Trump has been right about anything, it is that there is a deep rot in the upper echelons of American society, among people who have been put in positions of power and leadership. Trump understands that many of these people are weak, that their public commitment to civic principles can crumble under sustained pressure. In many cases, those folding have had ample resources to resist Trump’s shakedowns but haven’t been brave enough to do so. They are, in a word, chickenshit.
America’s chickenshit elites problem continues to be the biggest obstacle to fighting Trump www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

ned is exactly right. the challenge is reconnecting the democratic party to a mass constituency and building real affinity between voters and the party. it would be more worthwhole to put $10 million into piloting democratic clubs and associated newspapers bsky.app/profile/resn...
People are often surprised to learn that Lee was an officer who never made it past colonel. The purported promotion to general was awarded by a treasonous cabal calling itself the "confederate states of america" which was put down by force by the Union army, which also had superior generals.
It would be genuinely challenge to draw up articles of impeachment for Trump. There are thousands of individual acts which are abuses of power and almost as many breaking statute law. you wouldn't know where to start.
Also wondering if it’s only the IA+ they object to, or should we drop the Q? I know they’re against the T. So maybe LGB? Or should we just not say ‘gay’ at all? Trying to think where I’ve seen that one before
Can't believe they missed 'primary bedroom.'
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
With this budget, ICE alone would have nearly as large a detention operation as all 50 states' prison systems combined. Bigger budget than the Marine Corps. Police-state levels of spending
In Tommy Tuberville's home state of Alabama, 23% of all personal income comes from transfer payments from the federal government.
Alabama is the tenth most dependent on federal funding, getting $1.80 in spending back for every $1 its citizens pay in taxes.

Orban banned Pride demonstrations in Hungary, but today’s march in Budapest drew record crowds in defiance:
amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/06/...
Viktor Orban banned pride events in Hungary, the people took it as a challenge and just had the largest pride march in their country's history.
This is a moment where it is historically, epically important to see the forest through the trees.
Talking about what sweatshirt a guy was wearing or even the plight of his children misses the point.
The president is disappearing people to a foreign detention camp with no normal legal process.
Stop using “First Amendment” as a metonym for “anything, official or unofficial, that may make me think twice before speaking.”
Social limits on speech are REALLY REALLY DIFFERENT than, say, being harassed at the border by a CBP agent who doesn’t like your political posts.
very excited to see what this does to the lives and livelhoods of my friends and family. also excited to live through, what, the third economic collapse that is the direct product of republican governance?
