It's important to remind readers that while there are a few anti-trans dems, many are doing great work.

Spanberger in VA did not flinch at anti-trans attacks.

Now, she just ended Governor Youngkin's infamous rule that would ban trans students from bathrooms.

9/11 should evoke many things. Memories of those lost. Admiration for the courage of those who sacrificed so much. But it also should engender humility. Before and after the attack, the U.S. national security establishment failed repeatedly. Intel failed. Our reactions to the attack...

I hope people will actually listen to the statements of El Sayed about his focus--improving the lives of the people of Michigan, getting money out of politics, unrigging the system, standing up to Trump, Rogers & MAGA--and tune out the inside-the-beltway soap opera about division peddled by pundits.

Messaging for the Dems seems like it would be crystal clear and yet we’re gonna sit around and argue about what is socialism and what isn’t.

“Remember when they promised to drain the swamp?”

“They promised an end to forever wars.”

And so on.

Use their promises against them. This shit ain’t hard.

This is the play in every single industry at the moment. A massive bailout for mediocre white underachievers .
After a middling WNBA career, blonde haired, blue eyed Sophie Cunningham has positioned herself for post-basketball success and riches as a conservative mouthpiece. This is the pattern that always works because conservatives are very very dumb and will latch onto anyone who promotes hate.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time.

Watching DNC leadership, watching the topics they focus on, the out of touch candidates they favor again and again. I’m watching Tin Cup on that futile final hole trying to clear the water instead of taking a drop.

Life finds a way.
"Unlike many others forced to halt their research [due to Trump cuts], Sehgal and his co-authors released their study anyway...with a fraction of the intended sample size. Still, removing the gas stoves relieved the participants’ asthma so much that the results were clear even with only 85 of them."
The EPA halted a study on gas stoves and asthma. But even partial results were striking.
Research that used a federal grant to pay for asthma patients to have their gas stoves replaced showed a dramatic fall in asthma attacks. The program was cut short after President Donald Trump took of...

The FCC is demanding certain ABC stations file license renewals earlier than they're otherwise scheduled to in apparent retaliation for Jimmy Kimmel's jokes about the Trump administration.

Help us flood the FCC with comments objecting to this attack on freedom of speech and freedom of the press.

My revulsion at the mainstream media for participating in the WHCD tonight can’t be overstated. They’re laughing at his jokes and shaking his hand? Fuck off. The corporate press is an enemy addicted to access. And this was true before the Ellison’s started their takeover.

Can’t be surprised the administration is downplaying number of war deaths from 18 to 14. This is the same admin that said Covid was limited to 15 people on a cruise ship and would be handled in a few weeks.
