I'm trans and see that Pete Buttigieg is transphobic. He will not be getting my vote in 2028 if he's the nominee. We can completely fall together right here in America if it comes down to it.

So yesterday I learned about Ava Cordero, a transgender woman who, in 2007, sued Jeffrey Epstein alleging he sexually abused her when she was 16. Her lawsuit was filed in 2007 while Epstein was negotiating a plea deal in Florida for abusing other girls, but her claims were mocked and dismissed

The last time they did this people got killed from air dropped packages landing on their tents. Also, this is the most degrading way to deliver assistance to people and there are very good reasons why we don’t do food distributions like this anymore as a regular practice.
Israel will allow foreign countries to airdrop aid into Gaza, an Israeli security source says, as the country faces mounting backlash over a spiraling hunger crisis in the Palestinian enclave.
Israel says it will let foreign countries drop aid into Gaza as hunger crisis spirals
Airdrops into Gaza have previously been criticized as insufficient and impractical. The United Nations has called for an urgent ceasefire, though talks appeared Friday to have collapsed.

A newspaper wrecked on purpose.
POLITICO compiled a list of all the Washington Post staffers who have left in the past eight months. It’s at least a hundred names, many of them among the biggest names in journalism. This is the fastest erosion of a major outlet ever.

last year I helped raise $40,000 for a family in Gaza. I was able to interview one of the beneficiaries, a journalist who escaped to Egypt just before his wife gave birth to their youngest son. I knew very little about Palestine before 10/7, but came to care because of the relentless stories I read
It’s not. It literally makes no difference. The most important lesson of the past ten years is that being an informed, empathetic, responsible citizen means fuck all. Unless you’re capable of assassinating Netanyahu and the senior leadership of Likud, you can do nothing about Gaza, period.

The Israeli-backed and U.S.-run Gaza Humanitarian Foundation said that its distribution on Thursday would only be for Palestinian women. Eyewitnesses say that GHF staff pepper-sprayed them and beat them with batons, while two women were killed.

under AB 291, the Immigrant Tenant Protection Act of 2017, it is illegal in California for a landlord to disclose a tenant’s immigration status or threaten to report them to immigration authorities. tell your friends!
Disgraceful. Without a judge's signature, landlords DO NOT have to comply with ICE subpoenas.

WOW. A lawyer told @miamiherald.com that a Florida Highway Patrol agent told her that they are calling Border Patrol to investigate anyone who "appears Hispanic" that they pull over.
That is direct evidence of racial profiling — said over the phone to a lawyer! They aren't even hiding it!

One reason for this is that the Florida Highway Patrol is doing the stuff Border Patrol is doing in LA.
The Washington Examiner's immigration reporter did a ride-along with them and, well, basically described what are quite obviously extremely pretextual stops for immigration enforcement purposes.
