The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people. I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate. I make my case here.

erininthemorning.comDon’t Vote For The Worst Anti-Trans DemocratsThe Democratic Party should, and likely will, win big in the midterms. We must not send the worst anti-trans voices to join them.

So much to say about Brazil, not least of which is the role that Erika Hilton, a Black trans leader and most voted woman politician in Brazil, played in mobilizing folks for Lula. She was behind the critical, concrete, economic promise of shorter work-week. theprint.in/feature/erik...

theprint.inWho is Erika Hilton? Black trans politician was one of Lula’s loudest campaignersErika Hilton’s electoral triumph comes amid a hostile environment. Brazil has the highest number of reported murders of transgender people in the world, with 80 recorded in 2025.

I think this is the moment we take a page from Brazil and everyone should click on any article we can find about this, pump the numbers so it shows up.

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

Israel's current service to the West is to normalize genocide, ethnic cleansing, other crimes against humanity and war crimes - helping to end international law in the process - and to whitewash the Far-Right. All wrapped in an Israeli flag and opposition to it declared to be 'antisemitism'.

"Every bomb dropped in Palestine is money for an underfunded school." Rev. Dr. Frederick Haynes III has preached the truth about genocide for years. He rejects AIPAC money and backs an arms embargo on Israel. Vote for Rev. Dr. Frederick Haynes in #TX30!

China lifted about a billion people out of poverty in my lifetime. (And I'm only somewhat old.)

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

What do you bet Donald got the idea because he thought the "press pool" was a literal pool. Like he thinks people wanting asylum escaped from asylums.
