If we expect the Dems to hold the Epstein class to account we need to hold them to account when they commit egregious acts of public transphobia.
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.

This morning the New York Times warns that administration attacks on voting are raising fears it will try to challenge midterms results. That’s why we are urging you to vote early. Questions? Call the multi-lingual Election Protection Hotline. 866ourvote.org @lwv.org @brennancenter.org @aclu.org

Emanuel is trash. This has been my take on him since the moment he first came to national prominence during the Obama admin. He would make a terrible dog shit cleaner let alone public office holder again
Heather makes a solid point. If you're writing a story about Rahm Emanuel's presidential aspirations and don't mention that his administration as Chicago mayor covered up the police murder of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald, you're committing journalism malpractice. Chicagoans remember, believe me.
The frying pan “saving us” from the fire
Democratic congresswoman Kathy Castor of FL-14 becomes the latest anti-transgender Democrat. When asked if she supports "biological males in girls sports," she cheerfully and forcefully says "THE ANSWER IS NO!" with a huge smile on her face, laughing. The number keeps growing.

You know what, I will. This is what I have been pushing Dems to do both in my reporting and behind the scenes. Go on offense. The saturation of the airwaves with anti-trans ads is a weakness. Don't throw trans people under the bus. Capitalize on Republicans throwing themselves under.
You should take a little credit for yourself, as a treat (and also because you earned it)

In New Zealand, the High Court ruled that a puberty blocker ban violates prohibitions on discrimination on the basis of a medical condition. It stated the ban was "unjustified and disproportionate discrimination." Trans youth can get care again. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I honestly don’t know much about El-Sayed, but this is a perfect answer from him. It’s also hilarious that Tommy used to work for Josh Hawley and was paid 250k for influencer marketing AGAINST El-Sayed. They might want to get a refund. What a spectacular backfire. The walk of shame at the end. 🤣
This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Hey Americans:THIS is how we need to protest. Occupy,obstruct buildings & burn shit. All the cute wandering around our own neighborhoods(like is about to happen AGAIN this Saturday’s no kings nothingburger)amounts to cheerleading for the losing team as it gets literally killed/jailed by this admin
"Young people are not being included in the conversation," said the Swedish activist Greta Thunberg as she joined students protesting in France on Tuesday. The country witnessed another day of nationwide demonstrations over chronic teacher shortages, overcrowded classrooms and crumbling buildings.

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

FFS, “. . . no evidence of foul play. . . “. He was HANGING FROM A TREE.That is the very definition of foul play. The foulest, most vile play of all Black folks DO NOT, HAVE NOT nor will they EVER hang themselves from trees. NEVER HAPPENED,NEVER,NOT now NOT EVER How is this even being considered?
This is yet another in a series of deaths that invoke our country's most abhorrent and violent history and it should be investigated to the fullest extent of the law. We extend our solidarity and care to our Prince George's County neighbors.
