This is not true—driver’s licenses aren’t acceptable under the SAVE Act without additional proof of citizenship. The fact that they keep doing this sleight of hand should make clear that the SAVE Act is not something that “every American gets”

Woman yells 'You're lucky ICE isn't here,' man throws liquid as kids leave NW Side dance class A Belmont Gardens dance studio, parents and children feel under attack, and a couple who admit their actions were wrong feel threatened by the backlash they've received.

From Chicago to Palestine, attacks on our children must end!

I am relieved that the children attacked Friday are safe and uninjured. I am proud of the ways Ballet Folklorico de Chicago continues to create space for our community to celebrate our culture.

The moms risking arrest to protect gender-affirming care for trans youth The government wants to ban the care nationwide. Hospitals are shutting down treatment. Parents just want it all to stop.

Larissa, a therapist from D.C., recently spent 12 hours in a jail cell with five other people. There was no running water, since the sink wasn’t working. They were all fed once: a baloney sandwich per person.

She was there for her trans patients. They're being hurt by this administration, she said.

The bombing of Iranian children is an unforgivable crime America has blood on its hands.

Part of Trump’s mass appeal (and of why he’s so dangerous) is that he really seems to share Joe Barstool’s worldview that there are no complex problems: Everything has a simple brute solution, which previous leaders were somehow too stupid or weak to deploy.

Probably a good time for Democrats to point out Trump has never once pumped his own gas in his whole life. He has almost no idea how much gas costs or how it impacts normal people's budgets.

Cosmically, there is something very darkly funny about spending an entire decade of American politics obsessed with repudiating the mistakes of the Iraq War, and then immediately doing it again at the first opportunity, but with even less justification, planning, strategy, or foresight.

I think a lot of us millennials & older really take it for granted that we were the last of only a couple generations where there was an all-encompassing campaign to encourage literacy. Everyone used to agree upon it. There were commercials with your favorite celebrities just being like, "READ!"

They don't know even like it when WE rise up here in the U.S. They obviously do not give a shit about Iranians.

If Timothee Chalamet wants to make being a reverse-snob part of his deal, whatever. Be a child, you know?

But at a time when arts funding and support are so imperiled, it would be nice not to lead with your contempt for wide swaths of the arts during your campaign to have your own art recognized.

Walk into a sandwich shop. It’s regulated for health and safety.

But AI, which will transform the world economically and socially, is completely unregulated. That’s insane.

We need to make certain that AI works for ALL humanity, not just the billionaires who own it.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.

most everyone who's written about this from a philosophy of mind perspective has also argued a definition of consciousness alongside it. tech guys post things like this without having "done the reading" so to speak because they believe other fields are beneath them.

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”
