#woke: whatever offends klansmen easily
What is the difference between honest ignorance (which we all have on any number of topics, and if we're humble, we learn) and prideful ignorance ("I know everything already, shut up")?

He came to the #Wisconsin state legislature to speak against #genderAffirmingCare. Instead, after listening to testimony, he apologized and said he learned a lot

These #Words Are Disappearing in the New #Trump Administration
As Trump seeks to purge the federal government of “woke” initiatives, agencies have flagged hundreds of words to limit or avoid, according to a compilation of government documents.

#Trump signed a new #ExecutiveOrder instructing admin ofcls to alter a #StudentLoanForgiveness program for #PublicServants to exclude nonprofit groups that engage in activities that have what he erroneously called a “substantial illegal purpose.” His order targets groups supporting undocumented #immigrants, #diversity initiatives or #gender-affirming care for children, among others.

Fuck Gavin Newsom.
What the hell was he doing on a Charlie Kirk podcast anyway?
EDIT: This was Gavin’s podcast. He invited Charlie Kirk on his own podcast on the debut episode. That’s actually a lot worse.
“California Gov. Gavin Newsom said it’s “deeply unfair” for transgender girls and women to compete in female sports”
The Congressional #Hispanic Caucus [#CHC] released a statement hitting back at the #Republicans attack on its chairperson.
“This #xenophobic rhetoric from #Trump Republicans proves that you can follow the #law, get your papers, become a #citizen, get elected to #Congress — swear multiple #oaths to protect & defend the #Constitution — & all you will ever be to Trump Republicans: an ‘illegal immigrant,’” the group wrote in a post.
#Espaillat has been a US citizen for >40 years & is the first formerly undocumented immigrant to serve in #Congress. When his family first immigrated to the US from the #DominicanRepublic roughly 60 years ago, they briefly overstayed their tourist visa but obtained green cards within the year, acc/to HuffPost. [that’s the extent of his former 50 years ago “undocumented” status]

#Republicans Hurl Racist Insult at Democratic #Hispanic Caucus Chair
The #GOP isn’t even pretending not to be #racist now.
The National Republican Congressional Committee published an atrocious social media post calling Hispanic Caucus Chair Adriano #Espaillat an “illegal immigrant,” after the NY Democrat gave a Spanish-language rebuttal to #Trump’s address to #Congress.
“The advances made during the #CivilRights movement are being pushed backwards with the cancellation of #DEI,” Bryant said. “This generation owes it to the previous generation to fight to try to make America great, which is only happening through #diversity.”
Okay, now #trump is claiming to be tackling #toxic #chemical exposure & heralding #RFKJr as the #health secy. This will be very difficult for me to watch. #Liar.
Holy shit, he’s claiming a kid received #transition #medical procedures at school during the school day. Literally impossible.
He says #transgender care is mutilation.
"#Musk's #DOGE fires federal tech team that built free #tax-filing site"
#MAGA parasocially identifies with #plutocracy robbing them. Rich MAGA "doesn't pay #taxes." Poor MAGA hates taxes
So they think this is for them! "This hurts black people" and so they like it
The trick is mind-numbingly simple:
Be a stupid *poor* cruel ghoul
Adore *rich* cruel ghouls
Who rob them, see them as cattle to abuse
And they never. fucking. see. it.
Tiffany Justice, of #MomsForLiberty, touted the launch of the portal, highlighting it as an opportunity for parents to push back against "critical [race] theory, *rogue* sex education, & *divisive* ideologies." She added: "Now is the time that you share the receipts of the betrayal that has happened in our public schools."
Holy shit

Trump's Dept of Education has launched a new portal for Americans to rat out the #diversity, #equity, & #inclusion efforts at their local #PublicSchools.

However, one section appears to apply far more broadly, targeting ALL #transgender visa applicants—not just athletes. It mandates that “all visas must reflect an applicant’s sex at birth” & grants ofcls the authority to deny #visas based on “reasonable suspicion” of a person’s transgender #identity.
Full #Nazi State
#MarcoRubio may have just banned #trans foreigners seeking #visas from #US entry
A new #state dept cable, meant to target #transgender athletes, indicates a potential broader application to all transgender visas, which it states must contain "sex at birth."

The #Trump #Pentagon has issued formal guidance for currently serving #transgender members of the #military.
It says they will be separated from service unless they obtain a waiver meeting these criteria from p.8 of the “Guidance on Prioritizing Military Excellence & Readiness”:

#Health Secy #RFKJr announced Wed that his department had issued new “guidance on sex-based definitions” aimed, in part, at keeping #transgender women & girls out of female sports & fulfilling #Trump’s pledge that the federal government will recognize only two sexes: male & female.

You Are the "Inefficiency"
https://paulwaldman.substack.com/p/you-are-the-inefficiency
"Musk and his online minions often refer to #liberals as NPCs, or nonplayer characters, a #VideoGame term referring to the figures who populate the background of #games...
as they see it, most of humanity is simply not #human. We are ants, or even less: bits of #programming to be moved around at Elon’s whim...
Any suffering he brings down on NPCs is meaningless"
#ElonMusk ridiculed a blind person on X. Then the mob went to work.
Dylan Hedtler-Gaudette works at the Project on Government Oversight, a nonpartisan watchdog group focused on reducing bureaucratic waste. He also happens to be blind. So when he criticized Musk’s US #DOGE Service in testimony on Capitol Hill last week, #Musk unleashed an online attack Hedtler-Gaudette described as “surreal” in its #juvenile #bigotry.
