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.

Hey Dem candidates: all conceding on trans rights gets us is an escalation in bigotry from the right. For another example of this effect, see your own party's blatant islamophobia aimed at El-Sayed and Omar. Solidarity fucking works. Never forget that.

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history. Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.

We all know what “protect girls’ sports” means in the 2026 election cycle. DCCC coordinating on an ad using that language is unacceptable, and it gives other campaigns permission to follow. This is an inappropriate use of party resources. (1/3) www.erininthemorning.com/p/dccc-relea...

The Israeli Foreign Ministry is lying. No coordination was required, and we were never told that it was. We were not in a restricted security area. We did not pass any checkpoints.

Martin Luther King was much more successful than Malcolm X for example. Before that, there was no need for a bloody civil war in most countries that abolished slavery. Just votes. Independence can also be bloodless. Gandhi in India, Walesa in Poland, Mandela in South Africa. The list is long.

...As someone who likes making alcohol and has a dangerous amount of distillation knowledge, this is the only SCOTUS case I'm actually looking forward to.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Supreme Court agrees to review Reconstruction-era ban on distilling spirits in private homes.

As usual, a classic @jvp.bsky.social 🤝 @jfrejnyc.bsky.social win!

An incredible victory. The result of years of organizing by so many groups & people, including @jvp.bsky.social. So much is possible in this new era for NYC that wasn't before, because of our movements, in the political conditions of NYC led by Mayor Mamdani. More! Keep going!

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Zoronius reposted

liberals be like "Trump is bad because he has formed a cult of personality among his base who will defend him no matter what he does" and then form a cult of personality around Mamdani and defend him no matter what he does (or doesn't do).

NYPD keeps insisting it’s not working with ICE in the narrowest scope of not literally participating in kidnappings but then goes silent when people present evidence of ICE using their precincts/parking lots, of NYPD doing crowd control. Big difference in technical and de facto assistance.

Trump’s obsession with demonizing the Somali community is dangerous and reprehensible. Hate to break it to him: Somali Minnesotans are resilient. We will not let Trump intimidate us. Our neighbors have our back.

Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"

To the right, concerns of "women's safety" means putting them in gilded cages and using those cages as a cudgel against other minorities.

Today, I resigned as Vice Chair of the ODP Pride Caucus. The state party expects us to be a sales team, censoring our voices when we beg candidates not to trade on trans lives. I am still a Democrat, but I will not value party approval over true, defiant advocacy. Full text below. 👇

Over a hundred protesters picketed NewYork-Presbyterian for ending care for trans youth. We're picketing a hospital on the first Thursday of each month through Pride. See you on the streets Nov. 5

Saying you can threaten trans people with camps? That’s fine. Telling the hard of trust and safety that there’s been an uptick in this behavior and telling him he’s to blame? Verboten, you’re suspended. Fuck this platform.

As hospitals across the country cave to the Trump administration’s threats to cut federal funding and abandon trans youth, actor Elliot Page speaks out. In New York City, NYU Langone, Mount Sinai, and NewYork-Presbyterian abruptly ended care for trans kids in response to these threats.

Three of NYC's largest hospitals have been targeted by a fascist inquisition seeking to eliminate gender affirming care for trans youth. Two have capitulated. Tomorrow, we visit the final hold out. Join us in demanding that they stand strong.

NYC COME THROUGH!

We're not letting up! Join us on Thursday, October 1st at 430pm at 525 E 68th St. We are picketing New York Presbyterian, which has also ended care for trans youth, and is likely speaking to the DOJ about a settlement too. Join us! 🏳️‍⚧️🪧

Rape culture in the DA’s office

Jessica Valenti@jessicavalenti.bsky.social

Please don't give the DA reopening the Cornell case any cookies. District Attorney Matthew Van Houten all but called Jane Doe a liar today. He said that in Doe's initial statement, she described "her participation in drug use and sexual conduct as voluntary, conscious, and consensual.” CONSENSUAL

We need to elect every Dem that could be useful in an anti-fascist coalition, regardless of their ideology. Any Dem that is not anti-fascist is dead weight, and should be excised from the movement. Being anti-trans is pro-fascist. We don't need anti-trans Democrats.

"The queer community’s organized political power does not have to fund the first Democrats willing to abandon us." We can take back Congress without compromising on our fundamental rights. 🔗https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/equality-pac-political-arm-of-congressional

Fantastic protest organized by @genderlib.com to protest NYU Lagnone's deal with Trump to end gender-affirming care for trans youth. Big 🧵 of photos for ya!

SHAME ON NYU LANGONE! The Trump DOJ reached a settlement with NYU that will permanently end gender-affirming care for trans youth and pay $8.5 million. Join us for a picket at NYU: 📍 550 1st Ave 🗓️ Tuesday, September 22: ⏰ 4:30 PM

In recent days, two Black men in the DC area have been found hanging from trees, and in both cases the authorities are claiming suicide. That makes NO sense. Black people do not hang themselves from trees. What the HELL is going on?!
