"To get to any of us, you have to go through all of us"

If Democrats were smart, this would be their new slogan.

Zohran quoting Eugene Debs immediately in his victory speech was a fantastic moment.

What an excellent, inspiring speech from Mamdani. I haven’t felt chills like this… ever?

Democrats are currently ahead in 63 (!!!) races in the Virginia House of Delegates.

If this holds, it would be one of the largest state legislature swings in the last 4 years.

Its an absolute bloodbath for anti-trans Republicans.

What I learned tonight is the future of the Democratic Party is a trans Muslim CIA agent wine mom who wants to eliminate capitalism and barter with people on the free bus.

Amazing stat off MSNBC I just heard. Apparently over 50% of the ads ran by the Republicans in the Virginia governor's race were anti-trans.

They lost big.

Trans bashing is not the political winner that both Republicans and Democrats think it is.

Big shout out to @chrislhayes.bsky.social for spotlighting the importance of trans issues in the Virginia governor's race and how trans bashing is not the huge electoral winner that both Republicans and Democrats seemed to have convinced themselves it is.

Best anchor on cable news!

It's just telling that you're campaigning against one of the most pro-trans Democrats while supporting one of the most anti-trans Democrats while already having that label.

That's all. Not quite bidoof's law, but still

They were saying "Boo-urns"!

Clipping of news article about the Democratic primary race between Ed Markey and Seth Moulton. The clip text in full: ""Here in Massachusetts, we stand for what is right. We stand with trans people because
trans rights are human rights," Markey
said. He was met with applause from the
crowd.

Minutes later, when Moulton took the stage,
the congressman was greeted with boos. (In
an emailed response to questions, Moulton
said: "There were a lot of cheers and a few
boos for most of the speakers, including

me.")"

One of the many reasons we considered Mass when we were fleeing Texas (I'm trans and my partner is of Mexican descent). Ended up just a little south, though.

Someday I'll have more to say, but for now it suffices that no queer person alive will be surprised by this.

I just fled Texas after spending my first 34 years of life there and left for New England, nearly all of the New Yorkers who moved to Texas in the past 10 years have been mouth breathing reactionary hard-right Chuds who think Texas is conservative Mecca.

This is MAGA on MAGA crime, not our concern.

They’ve all gone mad.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott: “After the polls close tomorrow night, I will impose a 100% tariff on anyone moving to Texas from NYC.”

He really thought "Bill Clinton minus the southern charm" was a political winner, huh?

This is incredibly bad, but also it's very funny that this feels almost directly targeted advertising to Elon fanboys and maybe even to Musk himself

Did Onlyfans prices go up? Your bitch ex-wife wants child support? Too drugged up to drive so you need an uber? Try gambling!

So the expectation that we all just drop everything and embrace her back I nthe community is so asine and self-centered.

She's still extremely Xitter-brained. Her brain has been so cooked by voluntarily associating herself with the worst people for so long that it's the only lens she can view anything.

Kind of like you can tell when someone spent a long time on Tumblr or tiktok or even 4chan when they were younger.
