MARYLAND — @RepAndyHarrisMD gets laughed at 🤡 for trying to blame the Dems for high fuel prices, then whines about the “first amendment” 😢 Who wants to tell Andy getting appropriately ridiculed for saying embarrassing things doesn’t violate his rights?

The Democratic Party has let a consulting industry exploit elderly donors in its name, wreck its reputation and finances in the process, and walk away rich whether the party wins or loses. When a mirror is held up, the instinct is to break the glass rather than look. On why the press looks away:

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment. It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem. History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.

The thing about social media age restrictions is that it treats today’s internet as an inevitability we all just have to deal with. The internet (and the WORLD) wasn’t like this until like four dudes were allowed to own & monetize as much tech real estate as they wanted. Fix THAT problem.

Putting together a website dashboard of every LGBTQ related bill of the last two decades, both pro and anti. One of the talking points that needs to die is that Dems should've focused on things like nondiscrimination to not alienate moderates b/c that's exactly what they did!
displays a horizontal bar chart titled "Legislation by Type" showing counts of various categories of Pro-LGBTQ+ legislation from 2003 to 2026. The categories are listed on the y-axis, with the corresponding number of legislative actions shown on the x-axis, ranging from 0 to 1,000.

The categories, ordered from most frequent to least frequent, are:

    Employment Nondiscrimination: Highest count, near 900.

    Housing Nondiscrimination: Approximately 700.

    Public Accommodations Nondiscrimination: Between 500 and 600.

    Broad Nondiscrimination and Education Nondiscrimination: Both between 400 and 500.

    Domestic Partner Nondiscrimination and Hate Crime Classification: Both between 300 and 400.

    Marriage Equality, Healthcare Nondiscrimination, Commissions, Task Forces, and Studies, and Insurance Nondiscrimination: All between 200 and 300.

    Holiday/Recognition, Credit Nondiscrimination, Civil Unions, Anti-Bullying, Birth Certificate Or Identification, Conversion Therapy Ban, and Repeal Anti-LGBTQ Laws: All between 100 and 200.

    End Trans Panic Defense, Supportive Resolution, Gender Affirming Care, and LGBTQ+ Education: All under 100.

The interface includes filters set to "Pro-LGBTQ+" with a date range of 2003–2026 and an unchecked box for "Enacted laws only."
