“Once again, the conservative justices reveal themselves to be textualists of convenience.”
“Adjacent” means “next to,” not “adjoining” . . . until the Alito Five want to cut back EPA’s power under the Clean Water Act.

Our economy should be one that helps to fill up kitchen cabinets, not the pockets of the ultra-wealthy.

The rise of antisemitic attacks should alarm all of us. Antisemitism and bigotry - like all forms of hate - have no place in our world, and it’s on each of us to combat this growing threat. @potus is right to take on this issue, and he deserves our support. https://t.co/HY5xrpnS2g

This supposed party of freedom is more than happy to intervene in private medical decisions that belong to individuals, parents, and medical professionals- for power.
They won’t stop with attacks on women, parents, educators, people of color, the LGBTQ+ community, and more.
Yes, I know there’s gerrymandering and voter suppression. But we have to vote the GOP out. Vote and vote for Democrats.

@Ulrich_the_Elder@mastodon.social I’m not blocking an entire instance filled with great accounts because of one bad account. Just block the bad account.

I'll continue to implement my executive order on accountable and effective policing and strengthen public trust and safety.
But meaningful change at the state and local level requires Congress to act.
Send the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act to my desk, and I’ll sign it.

“As the X-date approaches, the U.S. Treasury’s cash balance has dipped below $49.5 billion. That means ‘there are 24 individuals on the Bloomberg Billionaires list who have more money than the Treasury does right now,’ per Bloomberg’s Kailey Leinz.”
My thought: This is obscene

Again:
Was Hitler a fascist 10 minutes before the Holcaust started? Was Hitler a fascist before he became Chancellor? Was Hitler still a fascist when he was in jail writing Mein Kampf and establishing the tenants of what would become Nazism? Yes?
Then your argument that "it's not fascism yet because hasn't invaded Poland" is every bit as reductive and childish as I'm treating it.

Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin calls Tuberville’s inner city teachers comment ‘dog whistling’ - AL.com https://apple.news/ARj0TweeOO_6yJk3WRvdjPA Yes. Because what Tuberville really wants to say is Black teachers.

@rosnovsky
The owner of newsie.social has previously said that transphobic speech is allowed if it's "respectful and in good faith." This is an unsurprising development, except for how fast it has happened.

“It’s become a routine occurrence to see media personalities, think tankers, and others whose large platforms give their rhetoric weight, call for a dictatorship in America.”
We’d better take these people seriously even if they are, well, batshit crazy.

What I as a white person understand about the Aboriginal Voice To Parliament is that a YES result means something changes, and a NO result means nothing changes. The current situation is unacceptable, so I’m voting YES.
@Danetteb @kcivey @Gigi@kolektiva.social @WearsHats @StillIRise1963 I still have all my old 45s. My husband would not put any of them in his jukebox. Harumph!
