Admit It. Gavin Newsom Is the 2028 Front-runner. For years, Democrats and pundits have rolled their eyes at Gavin Newsom. But heโ€™s positioned better than anyone else for the future of politics.

In the words of 2004 Gavin Newsom, โ€œwhether you like it or notโ€ฆโ€

I refuse to support a funding bill that fails to address the Republican health care crisis.

And make health insurance affordable.

The American people clearly understand the stakes and the urgency. We must too.

I'm voting no.

My first guess was the president.

I am sorry to learn that guess was accurate.

Welcome to the heavyweight bout, @ZohranKMamdani

This is a two man race. You look tired already. It's just the second round.

Downingtown elects Pennsylvaniaโ€™s first openly transgender mayor Democrat Erica Deuso defeated Republican Richard Bryant in the borough of Downingtownโ€™s mayoral election.

Congrats to the Mayor Elect!

(Though it is a small town by population, Downingtown is a borough in Chester County, part of the Philadelphia suburban expanse, defined by sprawling housing developments that abut where farms used to be. Not exactly โ€œsmall town America.โ€)

Mikie Sherill didnโ€™t start her campaign organizationally until after she won the primary (w/ 34%).

She didnโ€™t do the work.

Her staffers spent the last few months squabbling with local organizers whenever they offered feedback.

She barely won.

But she did. And that means one less MAGA in office โœŒ๏ธ

Abigail Spanberger did the work. She built a campaign from the ground up and built coalitions around Virginia, taking no vote for granted.

She earned this win.

Watch for it: sheโ€™ll be a force in โ€˜26 and โ€˜28.

Speaking of children, Fergie was like 8 months pregnant when they shot this video.

Also, Jake Shears has a cameo for some reason, idk why.

The Growing Divide in the Rainbow Coalition More gay people are speaking out against the gender ideology of trans and queer activists.

This inaccurately overstates the volume + influence of anti-trans gay people AND refuses to identify any of them as transphobic, which they are.

Alsoโ€ฆ the modern LGBTQ+ movement is not โ€œthe rainbow coalitionโ€ โ€” that was the name of Fred Hamptonโ€™s action org in the 70s.

Fun little Rufus Wainwright fact: he shares a child with Lorca Cohen, daughter of Leonard Cohen.

Who needs British monarchs when we can pledge our loyalty to three generations of Canadian folk rock royalty?

The Adam Schiff criminal probe has stalled, sources say After months of investigating, federal prosecutors in Maryland have not produced enough evidence to bring charges, according to four people familiar with the investigation.
