Too lenient.

Thank god, I was worried he might be an actual racist. /s

Trump: People who don't speak languages.

He doesn’t know that this includes him, does he? Unless “what fucking bastardization of the English language is this?” counts as a language.

Ok but is anything that Trump ever claims really supported by data?

Solidarity!

Same lol

Sometimes the internet is a force for good.

That being said, he will send this link to his gullible clingers in a fundraising email saying “look how mean they are!!!”

And of course it’ll work, just like it does every other time.

Oh my god this is glorious.

He quickly doubled down on his 2020 election lies: “They don’t investigate the people that cheated in the election. They investigate the people that understand they cheated and go after them. But they don’t investigate the people who cheated like hell. We have to have fair and free elections.”

wut

Yeah no shit.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Texas has tallied 106 deaths in Border Patrol vehicle pursuits from January 2010 to June of this year. Deaths averaged 3.5 a year through 2019 but spiked in 2020, leading officials to develop a new policy for vehicle pursuits with an eye toward increasing safety.

The policy announced in January stops short of prohibiting chases but, according to CBP, “provides a clear framework for weighing the risks of conducting pursuits, such as the dangers they present to the public, against the law enforcement benefit or need.”

Either the framework isn’t as clear as you think it is, or they just don’t give a shit.

Credit to them for not wanting to move to 98 either.

You know you’ve run out of shit to bitch about when you start to go after Canada.

They didn’t seem to mind Sarah Palin, she’s still entertaining them.

The Women’s Bureau has been in operation since 1920, when it was founded to create policies and standards to improve conditions for women at work, helping conduct research that formed the basis of early gender-based labor laws and key legislation on fair pay and paid leave.

Today, the agency collects and analyzes data on women at work and runs several grant programs, including the Women in Apprenticeship & Nontraditional Occupations program, which last year awarded $5 million to seven organizations developing apprenticeships for women in industries where they are underrepresented. The 2023 award was the largest in the program’s history, with funds going to programs in Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, Texas and Washington.

The bureau also supports initiatives that work to close the gender pay gap, advance paid leave policies, alleviate the child care crisis and eliminate workplace harassment. This year, it awarded $1.3 million in grants to organizations working to prevent and respond to gender-based violence and harassment against women workers, and launched the only federal database comparing child care prices at the county level.

Republicans: but does it do anything good?!?!

Their search used to be amazing, now it’s shit.

If you disagree, I’m sorry you can’t remember when there was a time that it was infinitely better. It was so good, in fact, that their name actually became a verb. Crazy, right?

They’re slowly killing Waze by removing features. Believe it or not, that app used to be even cooler too.

That. That’s why.

What the fuck NBC?!?!

I don’t doubt it. I’m a woman in Texas and while this news gives me some hope, these are the same people who make creative ways of banning abortion without “banning abortion” an Olympic sport.

raises hand

What does this usually mean for the timeline overall with respect to trial and next steps?
