No amateur sports program is worth sexually abusing children to prove their gender

When your party leader is a president with historically low approval ratings, who has raised prices through tariffs and wars, uses disaster relief and science grants to punish states that didn’t vote for him, and has agents shooting people in the streets, this is what you do.

NEW from me: I think this is the perfect time to use Rachel Maddow’s oft-repeated phrase - ‘watch what they do- not what they say.’ Ignore Ellison's PR pitch, but look at what's happening at CBS News including directing reporters to add “facts” that did not exist. open.substack.com/pub/jennifer...

David Ellison can’t be trusted with CNN

We've already seen how Ellison has wrecked CBS. Don't fall for his PR push on CNN.

I’m glad the President has his priorities straight.

Waking up to Sharia Law in NYC is crazy. Knicks won, crime is down, 2,000 toddlers are going to school for free, parents got “date night” with nyc babysitters, they’re building housing on city land, small businesses are saving money and selling ice cream. Its sunny out i should go get one.

They're going after this fire burning into Spokane with everything they've got, and rightly so

bears eat fascists@thorbites.bsky.social · 4d ago

Yikes, the amount of tanker aircraft assisting with the fire in Spokane is incredible - visible are 5 Canadair Scoopers and Super Scoopers, a Boeing 737, a Dehavilland tanker, at least three Sikorsky helicopters. There has also been a DC-10 tanker and now a DC-9 tanker. Just amazing coordination.

After the Kansas Supreme Court ruled abortion is legal in the state constitution, the GOP has tried to change the makeup of the court. A measure to directly elect justices, thereby making it about money & partisanship failed yesterday. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

Kansas voters reject GOP-backed measure to directly elect state Supreme Court justices

Another GOP incumbent not seeking re-election. They’re all panicking about the midterms.

Leaders from every corner of Tennessee—from local school boards to Congress—are uniting behind our campaign. They know what our state needs and what it takes to deliver for working people. I'm honored to have their trust to serve as the next Governor of our great state.

For federal elections, splitting the GOP into two competing crank Nazi movements would be great for Democrats. At the state/local level, however, we'd be condemning large portions of the South and Midwest to governance by Crossfit George Wallace's.

We could certainly use more Rhodes Scholars in our Congress.
