Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

Centuries before the American Revolution, Native nations created sophisticated systems to prevent tyranny: consensus councils, balanced leadership and protections for future generations.
Their political blueprint rivals anything the founders designed.

Before the American Revolution, Native nations guarded their societies against tyranny
Native American communities were elaborate consensus democracies, many of which had survived for generations because of careful attention to checking and balancing power.

Read their names. Say them aloud. These beautiful humans mattered.
In societies across history, trans and gender-nonconforming people were included, even honored with special social roles. It would have been unthinkable to hound them to death for being different.
It doesn't have to be this way.

The latest Epstein file revelations are more evidence on top of the huge pile of the orange dictator's known abuses and crimes. There were so many opportunities to stop him coming to power, and so many people along the way who failed to act or chose complicity.

I’ve seen this before and I love rereading it every time.
In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.
His reply was a doozy.

“Democrats should no longer fear the trans fight. Engage with voters, learn what they care about and design your messaging around that.”
For @msnbc.com I wrote about how Tuesday's election gives Democrats the blueprint for overcoming Republican anti-trans attacks and how thus should settle all the talk about throwing trans people under the bus.

Opinion | Democrats’ election wins showed they don't need to hide their support for trans rights
Republicans repeated Trump's anti-trans strategy from 2024 and lost big. This should be instructive for Democrats.
