The National Park Service has removed "T" and all mention of transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument. Trans women were some of the most influential activists behind the Stonewall movement and what followed. 3 articles of clothing laws were why raids happened. Erasure.

Episcopal Church joins religious freedom lawsuit challenging ICE enforcement actions in churches

The Episcopal Church is among dozens of multifaith plaintiffs in a lawsuit challenging the U.S. government’s recent rescission of guidelines that limited immigration enforcement in sensitive areas such as churches, schools, and hospitals. The suit was filed this morning in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia by Georgetown Law’s Institute for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection.

Here’s what we are reading today:

Trump said that he has spoken with Putin about ending the war in #Ukraine.

This comes before the U.S. leader meets with Zelenskyy next week.

When asked how many times Trump had spoken to Putin, Trump said he had "better not say."

When DOGE was trotted out as the name of the administration's attempt to rip out the guts of non-executive power, I was certain it was reference to the meme: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doge_(meme)

Now I wonder whether Musk and his cronies are thinking of the Venetian title: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doge_(title) . "In Venice, doges normally ruled for life, although a few were forcibly removed from office.'

They certainly seem to want the US to have a "crowned republic".

A 19 year old has been given admin access to the core US treasury financial system by Elon Musk’s DOGE.

He goes by the name of “Mr. Big Balls” online, is on Russian forums, and has tried to purchase DDoS botnets.

Elon has said sharing this information is illegal, so please do not press the boost button.

Experts question whether Edward Coristine, a DOGE staffer who has gone by “Big Balls” online, would pass the background check typically required for access to sensitive US government systems.
