First they came for the trans people, and I said nothing because I wasn’t trans. Then they were like actually I’m pretty sure you are trans and I said no I’m not and they went okay well show us your penis then and I said what no get out of my face and they said that one’s a girl get her

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

TPM is a treasure and punches way above its weight.

Friends of democracy should check it out. Frequent readers should become Prime members for about a buck a week for the first year.

Woke up one morning, and ICE was knocking...
Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Ciao! Ciao!
Woke up one morning, and ICE was knocking...
For the invasion had begun...
Come join your neighbors, we fight together...
Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Ciao! Ciao!
Come join your neighbors, we fight together...
Now is the time to get shit done!
From the Mississippi, to the Redwoods
Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Ciao! Ciao!
From the Mississippi, to the Redwoods...
Of this resistance they will tell...
How with our whistles, and our voices...
Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Ciao! Ciao!
How with our whistles, and our voices...
We sent ICE right back to Hell!
Then someday soon we'll, be planting gardens...
Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Ciao! Ciao!
Then someday soon well, be planting gardens...
Still with our voices lifted high...
We tell the stories, of our comrades...
Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Bella Ciao! Ciao! Ciao!
We tell the stories, of our comrades...
For our martyrs never die!

Dig out your grandpa’s old Jimmie Rodgers records and sing along. “You take all the medicine you want, I’ll take good liquor for mine.”

“MacArthur Park” songwriter Jimmy Webb congratulates Olympic gold medalist Alysia Liu, who skated to Donna Summer’s hit version of the song in her free skate. Laufey and PinkPantheress, whose songs Liu also skated to last week, have congratulated the Olympian as well.

Here's the thing I will continue saying every time this came up: Kamala Harris did not mention trans people in her campaign. She went out of her way to avoid it. She dodged every question on trans rights. And then she still lost. So what Newsom wants is *open hostility* to trans rights

love when democrats talk about kitchen table issues as if trans people and immigrants don’t have kitchen tables 🙃
