Today the UK is putting into practice aggressive restrictions on trans people using toilets and changing rooms. This follows a complex legal/political mess over two years.

Formerly portly Vice President now reduced to making fat jokes in near open acknowledgement of his own failure morally, politically, and as a man. This is what a person who’s been stripped down to the wiring looks like. An empty husk and a total embarrassment to himself and humankind.

Notably that Mark Zuckerberg reportedly apologized to the government of India over CSAM ads running in that country. The ads @wired.com covered ran below in the US, UK, and several EU countries: www.scmp.com/news/asia/so...

holy shit -- Schiff ties Trump's judicial nominees in knots by asking them who won the 2016 before *before* asking them who won in 2020, which results in them sounding like election deniers about Trump's victories!

They want a world built for rapists, a private game reserve full of hobbled and declawed victims.

Rape is the central pillar of the right-wing agenda, the right to terrorize other people in the most intimate way possible.

New: Police in Wisconsin used Flock to create a pretext to search a man's car for weed. Their justification? He drove from Wisconsin to Michigan, a “known source state for marijuana as it is legal there,” and Flock showed he "travels to Michigan frequently." www.404media.co/cops-used-fl...

Cops Used Flock to Track a Man Across State Lines to Create Pretext to Search His Car for Weed

"The vehicle travels to Michigan frequently which is a known source state for marijuana as it is legal there," a probable cause justification reads.

This man might go to prison for allegedly wiping his phone before DHS officials could search it. No warrant for the phone, no specific claim of what 'evidence' might be on it. But he used a duress/wipe password, leading to the charge Watch more and subscribe here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmik...

Donald Trump stands out historically in one way. He has demilitarized the US military more quickly than any other political leader in US history. A full blown pacifist would have struggled to throw away weapons faster than he has.

"America is broadly Islamophobic, and so any enemy of Islam is a friend of ours"

Fascinating interview with Robert Kagan, where he says that the biggest mistake of the Iraq war was that it permanently crippled the American public's conceptualization of their country's role in the world, and then admits that America is exceedingly Islamophobic and this informs foreign policy.
