A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

“Granite Falls Deputies are investigating the sighting of a 10’ alligator near the 9400 block of Ray Grade Rd.,” the Snohomish County Sheriff announced late Friday via X. “The reptile was last seen south of Ray Grade Rd. toward the Pilchuck River.”

Backlash to LGBTQ+ progress has increased substantially in Pennsylvania and across the U.S. in recent years. From attacks on LGBTQ inclusion in public schools and threats against drag queen story hours to mounting anti-LGBTQ legislation, right-wing extremists have used disinformation and conspiracies to try to erode the rights and liberties and even safety of queer and trans Americans.

If you’ve been hiking or hunting in Wyoming, you’ve likely come across no trespassing signs. But sometimes what lies beyond those signs isn’t actually private property. Instead, it’s public land, which should be legally accessible to all.

When Gov. Mark Gordon let legislation prohibiting transgender girls from competing in middle and high school girls’ sports become Wyoming law without his signature in March 2023, both opponents and supporters of the ban expected to go to court.

“[I]nvoking the favor and guidance of Almighty God,” the Constitution of the Confederate States of America composed by southern slaveholders in 1861 sought to “establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.” The authors of Project 2025, the latest playbook for restructuring the federal government in order to accomplish the policy goals of Christian Nationalists, similarly declare their manifesto will “decide America’s future” by securing their “God-given individual rights to live freely” and exercise dominion over others.
