Reminder Ken Paxton who is running for Senate in Texas pardoned his friend who was in jail for raping a boy for years.

Oh well, let's move on.

CW: extreme police violence.

A trans masc attorney in Oklahoma was arrested while in court for "contempt of court." The police kicked him and put him in a chokehold while he screamed that he couldn't breathe.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Jeffrey Epstein’s brother Mark sent a tip to the FBI accusing Trump of authorizing his murder:

“I have reason to believe he was killed because he was about to name names. I believe Present Trump authorized is murder.“

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.
The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

Look, if you had a party scheduled at your house, and the pipes broke and the floor was covered in raw sewage, you’d tell your friends not to come over.

In that spirit: world, skip the World Cup until we get this sewage worked out. And don’t be too sure about the Olympics.

Condé Nast’s folding of Teen Vogue into Vogue is “clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most," Condé United, @nyguild.bsky.social say.

Change throttles "staff diversity and [mutes] the magazine’s progressive political bent."

I’m rooting for these people. Hurricane Melissa is nowhere near done. She’s just getting started😩

Keep talking about these folks. We already know the current administration doesn’t care about Black & Brown folks so it’s our job for a while to keep a spotlight on them.

If the current administration ever ends, many people in (and around) it will need to be prosecuted. From influence peddling to flat-out murder, their crimes seem to accumulate each and every day.
