Calling out a fascist for taking a hypocritical position is easy. It's also a complete waste of time. Fascist rhetoric is aesthetics— pathos, never logos. You'll never get anywhere pointing out a fascist's hypocrisy. Fascism is not to be debated, it's to be smashed. Get comfortable using power.

This is a long one, but the short-term rental vote was a great case study in a lot that is wrong with county governance. Read: open.substack.com/pub/rachbarn...
Key Takeaways:

Monroe County would have a registry if not for Joe Morelle.
Airbnb’s lobbyist here is the Congressman’s son, and the documents show he supplied draft bill language and had months of privileged access. That relationship — not policy — explains why we are the only major county to opt out.

The Legislature cannot simply “opt in later.”
Our attorneys work for the County Executive, not the Legislature. Under Bello’s interpretation of the Charter, we cannot direct him to act. He controls the legal drafting, the timeline, and the outcome — and legislators fear retaliation for crossing him.

The administration went full Trump: deny the evidence, attack the messenger.
Instead of refuting their own emails showing Airbnb’s involvement, they smeared me as vengeful and fictionalized the facts. They also pushed a false claim about revenue loss.

Local media largely failed to inform the public.
Most outlets refused to center the Morelle connection, softened documented facts into “claims,” repeated the administration’s untruths without challenge and covered the issue when it was too late to engage the public.

🗽🍎 Chi Ossé, Gen Z activist and council member in Brooklyn, has filed paperwork to run in the 2026 Democratic primary against the pro-Israel US House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, the longtime incumbent in New York’s 8th District.

Ossé has been one of the city’s youngest and most outspoken elected officials on Gaza. Earlier this year he wrote on X: “Israel is a terror state. Shame on every single person who is continuing to defend the ongoing genocide…” He also helped push New York City’s ceasefire resolution.

Jeffries has cast himself as one of Congress’s strongest defenders of Israel throughout a genocide that produced months of live-streamed atrocities, a UN-declared famine, and the killing of tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians. He has opposed ceasefire measures and efforts to restrict US arms transfers. Jeffries spoke at the “March for Israel” rally calling US support “ironclad,” and his campaigns have received major backing from pro-Israel political PACs and donors.

The race sets up a generational and ideological fight over Gaza, US foreign policy, and the future direction of the Democratic Party — in New York and beyond.

People need to understand just how openly genocidal the rhetoric on the far right is getting towards transgender people. They're openly talking about eradicating us and forcefully mass institutionalizing all trans people. These are people with direct ties to the Trump administration.
Screenshot of two tweets from Matt Walsh’s verified Twitter account (@MattWalshBlog).

First tweet (17 hours ago): “It’s time to have a national conversation about common sense restrictions on transgenders.” The tweet has 1.3K comments, 3.8K retweets, 42K likes, and 1M views.

Second tweet (18 hours ago): “It wasn’t all that long ago that anyone who identified as the opposite sex would be involuntarily committed to an insane asylum. Does anyone at this point seriously think that our current approach is an improvement?” The tweet has 666 comments, 1.9K retweets, 21K likes, and 362K views.First tweet is by Michael Knowles (@michaeljknowles), reposted by Christopher F. Rufo. It reads: “For the good of society and especially for the good of the poor people who have fallen prey to this delusion, transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely—the whole preposterous ideology, at every level.” The tweet has 816 comments, 2.4K retweets, 17K likes, and 379K views.

Second tweet is by Christopher F. Rufo (@realchrisrufo), 20 hours ago: “The trans cult hatched such an enormous propaganda campaign, that, for a number of years, they were able to obscure an obvious truth: pumping kids full of synthetic hormones, while telling them they can change from boy to girl, will only end in tragedy or disaster.” The tweet has 878 comments, 1.5K retweets, 9.2K likes, and 120K views.

Third tweet is also by Christopher F. Rufo, 20 hours ago: “We should now put to rest the libertarian delusion that transgenderism is a matter of ‘personal choice,’ or ‘live and let live.’ It’s an ideology that has done grave damage to millions of Americans, and has unleashed a nihilistic wave of violence on our society. Enough.” The tweet has 921 comments, 1.5K retweets, 9.6K likes, and 293K views.
