The Dem establishment is going to back Mills over the absolute phenom outsider Platner in Maine, which tells you everything you need to know about how well they understand the current moment & how prepared they are to meet it.

This LGBTQ History Month, we’re not just honoring the past — we’re fighting for a future where all trans youth can grow up and thrive as themselves.

Blue graphic with a quote in pink and white text reading "Our son is trans. He knew he was a boy, long before he had access to social media or had met other trans people... My son is alive and has a great life because of gender-affirming care.” The quote is attributed to: Anonymous parent of a trans child

The Spectator (owned by GBNews owner Paul Marshall - estimated wealth of £800 million) doesn’t like taxing wealth fairly.

I wonder how they got to this editorial decision?

Let’s tax wealth fairly, fund front line services & make hope normal again.

Polanski is talking nonsense about wealth taxes.

We’re exchanging ideas, you’re giving us the idea that Bari Weiss, who receives money from the same billionaire that bought Clarence Thomas, could be a good fit for CBS and we’re giving you a “what the actual fuck are you taking about” in response.

That’s an exchange of ideas.

graham linehan’s latest escalation is hiring ppl to dox and harass trans women. 🤷‍♀️

jus imagine for a second that a cis man was doing this to cis women.

society says not only is it okay to do it to trans women but it’s fine to publicly crowdfund to pay for it. 😕

Let's hire a private detective!
Here's where we are: for wears, Ive been reporting a group of men to the police. They ve harassed dozens of people.
the harassment and death threats they send my way, nothing happens. When others report them, nothing happens.
But here's what does happen: the police investigate us for talking about them.
Ine grotesque nature or this colacerason would be laservano trom a oritance. Unortunatty, fi not as a ostance, and it's been going on for years.
So I've decided to do something that feets wonderfully ridiculous and also completely necessary, hire a proper private detective. Someone who actually investigates things. Novel concept, I know.
I'm deughted to say that our prece on Melody Uawion has resuited in members of his tamity ottung m touch. And that s what we can do without a private detective. Think what will happen if we get professionals on the case.
Picture it: a licensed imestigater with a proper case file, following leads from Sussex to Capetown, gathering evidence the authorities keco oretendina doesn't exist. Well comale everything, oresent & to indroundent abservers and every maic)
outlet we can find.
What Your Money Gets
• A licensed investigator who actually does the job
• Document searches, survellance, evidence gathering
• Property documented findings that can be used legally or journalistically
Iknow vou're sick of the Cancel Tax. I'm sick ct it too. But ths onels dicent. This one micht oroduce results that and
decoly satistving no matter where you are in the foht. The l& detective work. And when tis done, we'll have something
Why It Costs What It Costs
The goal looks high because this isn't some bloke following someone to Tesco. This is a proper irvestigation spanning multiple juriscictions. Were not just atter a few bad actors. We want to out all of them.
Every donation puts us closer to exposing something the authorities have worked very

You think it was *our* idea to have no nationwide ban on v-coding .

You’re such a dupe. You clearly watched Fox News too many times and now you think I’m part of some kind of political super elite. I’m not. If anything we get far less “face time” than you do.

Because you’re a complete moron who thinks that just because republicans demonise trans women, we must magically have Joe Biden’s phone number. They don’t listen to us, or even really care about us.

And even when we do get face time, they don’t necessarily implement anything we ask for. Unless 1/

Please remember that "that's illegal" is a *description*, not a *conclusion*.

The law PROHIBITS people from doing things. It does not PREVENT people from doing things. "Illegal" does not mean "impossible." "Illegal" means "on a list of actions the government can, but is not required, to punish."

The real crisis here is not Miller saying Trump has “Plenary authority” - I.e, absolute authority.

The crisis is that he said it in front of a journalist and the journalist let him off the hook.

"We basically pay two mortgages at the moment.”

When one parent enrolled their child in an early intervention ASD class, they looked to cut childcare hours.

But their provider insisted they pay for a full-time spot, despite only needing half the hours.

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?
