Saw some post somewhere earlier about people β€œnot getting” transness or whatever

You don’t have to get it.

If you believe in bodily autonomy for all, then no one needs you to understand their personal situation to earn being seen as a person by you.

You just treat every human being as a person.

My dad was a federal law enforcement officer β€” and I was proud to follow in his footsteps.

I’ve spent my entire career working to keep our communities safe. That’s what I’ll continue to do as Governor.

The refs were off all game. Not necessarily is an outcome changing sense, just clunky and disorganized.

They need to spend the entire bye week on tackling. Shameful attempts so far this game.

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism.

I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

This by @katmabu.bsky.social is the best speech I've heard yet by any politician about what ICE/Trump/Noem is doing and it's not close.

Your gentle reminder that Rep. Melissa Hortman was assassinated on June 14 and hardly anyone bothered to talk about it.

We must pass a billionaire minimum tax that establishes a baseline tax rate that the super-rich cannot go under.

It's time to tax the rich.

JD Vance straight-up lied about Dems wanting health care for illegals. They are barred from the medical assistance orgs.

Almost nobody my age or younger has a real shot at owning a home.

We need to ban hedge funds and private equity from buying homes, restore federal support for building housing, and expand VA-style home loans so working people can actually afford to own where they live.
