@kitoconnell.com is doing such great work.

This bill is disgraceful.
“It’s assumed that trans people are going to be fined, arrested or kicked out of places when in reality it’s the [public] entity that takes on the burden.”

SB 8 targets schools, libraries and other venues, allowing the state to "investigate" and levy massive fines.
How the Bathroom Bill Weaponizes Transphobia Against Public Institutions
A legal expert called the new anti-trans Texas bathroom law “the most plainly unlawful, undemocratic legislation I’ve seen in recent history.”

So lemme get this straight: The president routinely threatens media outlets and berates reporters, but media now want me to believe the most important scandal-crisis in journalism is that Katie Porter is sometimes rude?

Do I have that right?

FEDERAL RESERVE STUDY: "Investors raise rents at 60% higher rates than the average increase...and higher investor share in a neighborhood is correlated with faster rent increases for non-investor landlords."

But sure...go ahead & insist investor landlords have nothing to do with the housing crisis.

BREAKING: We just filed a second lawsuit against Texas school districts that have posted or plan to display the Ten Commandments — despite a federal court’s ruling that S.B. 10 is a clear violation of the separation of church and state.

Public schools are for educating, not evangelizing.

The super rich have been fear mongering about fleeing New York City.

But the truth is that working-class New Yorkers are leave at much higher rates than wealthy residents.

The average New Yorker has been 4x more likely to leave than someone in the top 1%.

While Starbucks baristas struggle to pay their bills and corporate employees get a return to office order, what is CEO Brian Niccol doing?

He's building a "luxury" office near his California home for days he doesn't want to commute to Seattle via private jet.

The NYT with a trifecta of bullshit today:

1) equivocating on vaccines to puff up RFK

2) blaming NYC mass shooting on the proposed policies of a guy who's not the mayor, rather than the omni-cop mayor

3) blaming kids dying to a genocide as dying from 'preexisting conditions'

JD Vance was asked about bacon and lowering prices on Face the Nation.

Instead of answering the question directly he says:

"..How do we grow the bacon? Our farmers need energy to produce it. So if we lower energy prices, we are going to see lower prices for consumers.."

Now, Texas’ abortion ban is pushing doctors to leave the state — threatening to make the state's already alarmingly high maternal mortality rate worse.

The national risk is high due to potential Republican national policies targeting trans people.

DC has slightly increased in risk. Wyoming and Georgia go up as well.
