I worry that transphobic Democrats might be palatable to centrists because, more than the transphobia itself, they want the comforting lie that we're at the right point to stop fighting for trans people. Are they just a "mission accomplished" banner?

These candidates leaning into transphobia are also just dumb on their other issues. Talarico saying heโ€™s reduce gas prices by suspending the federal gas tax is fucking stupid when you could take a clear stance against the incredibly unpopular war actually driving prices up.

Sorry man this guyโ€™s gotta lose I donโ€™t care who the fuck heโ€™s running against. If these loudly anti-trans Dems donโ€™t lose, itโ€™s going to take us thirty years to get back the rights weโ€™ve lost in the past five.

Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet. Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well. Horrific.

We tried "everyone is entitled to an opinion" for three straight decades and all we have to show for it is four thousand cases of measles and a death cult running the government. It's time for people who don't know what they're talking about to shut the fuck up.

I feel like "hey, bigots fucking lie a lot and parsing their pronouncements to try and figure out their motivations is fucking pointless" is underrated as a life lesson. Also "their motivations don't matter if you commit to stopping rather than persuading them."

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Anyway, Homestuck is arguably a genderqueer narrative, so let's be careful about labeling the cyberbullying chess master a Corsican icon.

2. presupposes that public confidence in the court hasn't been demolished. By what justification do you assert that doing nothing would protect public confidence, and doing something would destroy it? This is inherently a conservative assumption, not one supported by the evidence.

Calls for expanding #SCOTUS are entirely (and increasingly) understandable. But as today's "One First" explains, there are at least four difficult questions that those who support expansion should have to answerโ€”especially as compared to other possible reforms: www.stevevladeck.com/p/bonus-257-...

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

Iโ€™ve heard people confuse top two primaries with ranked choice voting. They couldnโ€™t be more different. The NYC mayoral race shows why. Vote no on 3.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

And, for the coup de grace, two bills protecting fire survivors from predatory insurance companies, which he vetoed, deliberately, to punish fire survivors for rejecting his "reform" bill that was actually a huge payout to SCE for starting fires. calmatters.org/economy/2026...
