This is going to make me sound old and maybe a little nostalgic but it’s really striking how in the Trump era, no one even pretends to debate about policy anymore.

First I was banned from X/Twitter.

Then Facebook banned my newsletter.

Then X/Twitter banned me permanently.

Now YouTube disables my channel the week of my book launch.

Was it something I said?

The British press is by and large one of the most revolting institutions I’ve ever encountered. They hounded him to death for hate and clicks. He had two kids.

More than 436,000 citizenship cases have been referred to Assam's foreigners' tribunals—165,992 declared foreigners

In one recent case, Gauhati HC held that 15 official documents—including records dating back to 1951 NRC—were still not enough to prove citizenship

Anti trans people have been winning for years, and it’s ridiculous that they can’t accept what and who they are. You ARE anti rights. That’s what you are- you’ve removed rights from trans people. Pretending it’s for womens’ benefit is clearly bollocks
JK Rowling through her TERF organization, Beira's Place have sent Amnesty International a demand letter seeking a full retraction of their report, a public apology, and a bar to future criticism of gender critical groups as anti rights orgs. If they don't comply, they'll commence legal action.

In a major attack on elections, President Trump fired all remaining commissioners on a bipartisan federal agency created to help states administer elections.

The dismissals leave the agency without leadership months before the midterm elections.

Doesn't matter who it is, it's a bullshit idea and yet another way Infantino is damaging the game. Four quarters and half-time show – all perfectly good for NFL and the Superbowl but the World Cup does not need it.
FIFA has announced Justin Bieber as the last co-headliner for the World Cup final halftime show, which will be a first in the tournament’s history.

Madonna, Shakira and BTS had already been confirmed to perform during the break.

NEW — Belfast-based writer @hleehurley.com talks about the racist pogroms that have terrorized his city, how existing tensions in Northern Ireland (and *not* Elon Musk) primed local factions to turn violent, and how Minnesota’s response to ICE inspired their community to care for one another:
Elon Musk alone isn’t responsible for Belfast's racist pogrom
The violent response to an attempted murder would have happened regardless of Musk, Lee Hurley writes.

Is the New York Times more biased than other major US news organizations that cover the trans community?

Early data from our 2026 news tracker suggests they are. Of the 10 outlets we've been tracking, NYT had the fewest stories that quoted a trans person of them all.

one of many reasons i will never accept abandoning my trans siblings or the broader queer community for the purposes of "a bigger tent"
Orban's inability to prevent last year's Pride protests—attended by 300k despite being banned—was a turning point in his authoritarian grip of the country.

Queer people are always leading the fight against authoritarianism, as we are often its first targets. Never cower to fear.

1. The largest medical organization in the United States, the American Medical Association, has reaffirmed that gender affirming care for trans youth is medically necessary.

It disavowed the New York Times reporting.

Incredible development for trans youth.

I'm telling you, boring old lawyers are now going to ABA panels to applaud hostile retorts to MAGA panelists and yell "you're a clown" at them.

A whole lot of people who merely furrowed their brows at Trump I are now seething with rage, and the Dem consultant class needs to wake up to that.
Trump defense lawyer John Lauro faced unusually testy pushback from co-panelists & DOJ alums attending ABA conference.
Lauro praised Trump DOJ for being in a "better place" now that Jack Smith isn't victimizing the president.
