How many reports does it take before Americans stop calling this “isolated incidents” and start asking whether there’s a systemic problem? A new Human Rights Watch & ACLU report should be a five-alarm warning for anyone who cares about human rights in this country. A #SheShed 🧵

In a landmark resolution adopted unanimously, the U.N. Human Rights Council formally recognized “reproductive violence” as a specific, systemic form of gender-based violence. Forcing someone to be pregnant,or forcing them not to be,is reproductive violence 🧵 #Pinks msmagazine.com/2026/07/25/u...
Stephen Miller said just the other day that all asylum claims are "fake." A couple deported from the U.S. to Guatemala were gagged, bound, and shot dead. Their 14-month old found crying next to their mother's body. People like Miller don't care though because this is the point: ethnic cleansing.
I think it is important to note that there’s absolutely nothing wrong with having a different neurotype, such as autism (ASD), ADHD, etc. Pathologizing someone with autism potentially exacerbates existing harms they’re likely already struggling with. It leads to harmful labeling and stigma.
"Their 14-month-old daughter, Giovanni, was found crying beside her mother’s body in southern Guatemala. The child showed signs of dehydration..." Guatemala’s National Police said the couple "had been gagged and had their hands and feet bound. Authorities said both showed signs of physical trauma" 💔

ICE is dropping some of its warehouse concentration camps, but they're expanding other ways, including overseas. I wrote about a few of the recent camps they want to open and one group of community members who are fighting back in Louisiana.
At Tacoma’s ICE detention center, those who have reported assaults have been ignored, evidence is dismissed, and GEO Group is allowed to investigate itself. This isn’t justice. It’s a system that is built to protect abuse and silence victims. ICE and GEO Group must be held accountable.

It's no surprise that Aussie athletes like the swim team have been consistently masking to prevent themselves getting sick before competitions.

Democracy DocketNEW: The Energy Dept. admitted it cancelled federal clean energy grants in states that didn't vote for Trump, with that being the sole criteria. It is yet another example of the Trump administration weaponizing federal resources to undermine democracy and punish his perceived enemies.
When I worked at the White House, I always looked forward to going into my office in the Eisenhower (OEOB), which is a magnificent and historic building with an exterior of polished granite, slate, and cast iron. Painting it white would destroy its historic character and be a maintenance nightmare.
