The Beat H.R. 7661 could restrict federal funding for schools over LGBTQIA+ and sex education content. Here's what's at stake and how to fight back.

It's long past time the American left launch a meaningful free speech movement to push back against these bad-faith trolls and religious zealots.

OK, now, for shits and giggles, we will explore the question of Graham Platner's potentially Jewish surname as raised by Ryan Grim and the white supremacist founder of VDARE.

β€œIt’s Time”: Virginia Lawmakers Ask Voters to Repeal Jim Crow-Era Lifetime Ban on Voting Voters will decide this year whether to end Virginia’s uniquely harsh felony disenfranchisement rules. They

Today, Virginia is the only U.S. state where someone convicted of any felony loses their right to vote for life, unless it is personally restored by the governor.

Kalshi contracted with a 15 yo to promote betting. For pay. Dumbass lawyers nixed it.

"Kalshi and Polymarket have paid creators including college students to produce a tsunami of content...At one point, both companies attempted to recruit a 15-year-old videogame streamer as a marketing affiliate."

For the latest Time cover story titled "Trump's War," which was published on Thursday, March 5, correspondent Eric Cortellessa questioned Trump about the details of the unfolding war with Iran. In a pointed moment, he was asked whether it's reasonable for Americans to have concerns about being attacked at home.

β€œI guess,” Trump, 79, responded. β€œBut I think they’re worried about that all the time. We think about it all the time. We plan for it. But yeah, you know, we expect some things."

"Like I said, some people will die," the president added. "When you go to war, some people will die."

Thank you @madikoesler.bsky.social and @wcp.bsky.social for covering Bryan Betancur’s full history of violence towards women & children.

Restraining orders and anti-staking orders haven’t worked for his victims.

Bryan Betancur β€œmetro hair toucher” is dangerous, this is his third arrest since J6.

Steve-O was on Joe Rogan's show trying to defend trans people and Rogan went off, he called trans people "fucking perverts" and "mass shooters" who have done the majority of school shootings.

Completely unhinged bigotry paid for by your Spotify subscriptions.

It is 2026 and we are not fucking doing this anymore. EIGHT WOMEN came forward and told stories of Franken GROPING AND FORCIBLY KISSING THEM. The man was a sexual abuser. He did not and does not belong in congress. Fucking period. End of conversation.

Cricket, the dog she murdered in a quarry got revenge by her losing her cushy job as DHS secretary and getting a different cushy govt job that’s mostly bullshit work? Is that what Ron is saying here?

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.

I don't think "affair" is the really right term when he was texting a congressional aide explicit messages and she wrote back "this is going too far, boss"

Israel, only empowered by the blood of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians is now expanding it's genocide to Lebanon... all while it actively attacks Iran, murdering children.

Any candidate that even recognizes Israel as anything but a rogue nation shouldn't be considered for any elected office.

ICE confirms a measles outbreak in the nation's largest detention facility in Texas The agency said it's closely monitoring the situation and coordinating with public health authorities while the facility has been closed to visitors and attorneys.

so let me get this straight: the USA reduces vaccination rates below herd-immunity levels, confines a population of "undesirables" in concentration camps, then unleashes a deadly virus on them...

yeah that checks out. history is rhyming in a country founded on disease-driven genocide
