Encouraging children to be who they are is suicide prevention.
Forcing children to be who the ruling party wants them to be is the opposite.
Are we all clear on this?

Orban said 3 years ago that he was offering us his "recipe" for an "illiberal" state.
The next ingredient in this recipe, after hollowing out the federal govt and filling it with loyalists (also Orban) is weakening the legacy media.
Through lawsuits and intimidation.

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts and real estate”.
Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

We can't sit on the sidelines while Trump attacks the news media. It's more important than ever to actively support the many news outlets & individual journalists committed to rigorous, fearless reporting. I have some recommendations in my new piece ⤵️

Democracy only works if we participate in it. Vote. Work on a campaign. Run.
I updated this due to an astute follower pointing out that Alabama changed their laws to have off year local elections as well. That's a lot of races in 2025 in some 31 states! Local elections matter! Get involved! Send a message! This doesn't even include a bunch of special elections happening now!

This is why elections matter! Local elections !!!!!!!! Arg!!!
The final House results have now landed as 220-215 for the GOP. That means the House majority came down to the 3 NC seats the GOP flipped thanks to its brand new gerrymander.
And that gerrymander hinged on NC's supreme court flipping in 2022.
