New Poll: Voters Prefer Democratic Candidates Approach To Trans Rights Over Republicans A new poll, which surveys voters who will partake in the New Jersey and Virginia governor races, found that voters were not impressed with Republican anti-trans positions.

1. The anti-trans panic is losing steam, at least when it comes to elections.

New polls in battleground races in Virginia and New Jersey show voters prefer Democrats to Republicans on trans issues by double digits.

This as centrist groups urge capitulation.

9. Mamdani’s unapologetic embrace of marginalized communities shows what real leadership looks like: a politics that doesn’t ask whom to abandon to win, but whom to lift up to build something worth winning for.

Shutdown is on. Only 3 Democrats voted for the clean CR, which means we are now officially heading for a government shutdown.

The paradox of tolerance applies here, and in that inviting these 3 people to the event, you're making it LESS inclusive, rather than more inclusive. It seemed like they may have listened, but then went ahead and actively invited these 3 specifically mentioned content creators publicly instead.

A screenshot of two tweets from the Politico reporter Joe Anuta. The 1st: ".@NYCMayor elaborates on his comments yesterday that boys and girls should not use the same bathroom. He says he will review the policy of his own education department, which allows students to use restrooms “consistent with their gender identity” and potentially change it" 2nd: "He says students whose sex at birth differs should never be allowed to use the bathroom at the same time, regardless of gender identity"

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

Oregon governor Tina Kotek, a gay woman, is ordering flags to be flown at half-staff to honor a podcaster who said gay people should be stoned to death.

Regardless of the narrative presented, we must stand fast in not allowing any group to be stripped of their human or self defense rights. Ever.

Every major gun-rights group has now spoken against the idea of the DOJ trying to strip trans people of their gun rights en masse. GOA, SAF, FPC NAGR, and CCRKBA all publicly oppose the effort.

"Photograph of a television mounted on a beige wall displaying a Fox News broadcast. The screen shows an NRA statement in white text on a dark background: 'NRA does not, and will not, support any policy proposals that implement sweeping gun bans that arbitrarily strip law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment rights without due process.' The NRA logo appears on the left. A news ticker at the bottom reads: 'PROF: ANY EFFORTS WILL FACE BIPARTISAN PUSHBACK.' The tweet above the photo says the NRA came out against DOJ's 'Tran Ban' and praises unity and consistency in the Second Amendment space."

The NRA account just retweeted this to make it more explicit.

"Graphic from the NRA with a red border and dark blue background. White and yellow text states: 'The NRA supports the Second Amendment rights of all law abiding Americans to purchase, possess and use firearms. NRA does not, and will not, support any policy proposals that implement sweeping gun bans that arbitrarily strip law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment rights without due process.' The NRA logo is at the bottom. The tweet caption reads: 'The Second Amendment isn’t up for debate.'"

Oh my god, Trump actually got the NRA to come out to defend trans people owning a gun.

Trump DOJ is looking at ways to ban transgender Americans from owning guns, sources say | CNN Politics Senior Justice Department officials are weighing proposals to limit transgender people’s right to possess firearms, according to two officials familiar with the internal discussions.

They've been waiting for their chance, and we've been predicting this for years. Authoritarianism requires enemies of the state, real or *imagined* for them to push their agenda.

I have received enormous hate for calling them the "American Taliban", but it's absolutely correct. They will not stop until this country conforms to their moral code as dictated by their religion. It doesn't stop with porn, it *starts* there.

Emmett Till memorial shot up with bullets

A bulletproof Emmett Till memorial. Riddled with bullet dents.

All I think about when I hear people say that it’s bad taste to dance on Hulk Hogan’s grave is that Emmett Till’s monument had to be replaced with a 500lb steel bulletproof monument because white people simply won’t stop riddling it with bullets. So now it just has tons of dents. From bullets.

Ahahaha! YAY! GO AWAY!!!
