I feel so angry for the trans folks living in places where the Dem candidate running has echoed anti-trans shit. Just despicable.

I’m not fucking sorry for saying so. There’s no evidence fueling fascist anti-trans narratives helps Democrats win. None. The opposite is actually true.

Not only should brooks and others shut up. But Ossoff is the best example in the country of a Democrat playing dominance politics and using it to control the whole terms of his race.

Right, it turns out that instead of letting the Republicans set the terms of the debate, you can simply tell them and their enablers in the media to cram it. El-Sayed has been doing the same thing. It's long overdue.

Elon Musk and MAGA influencers tried to push a “BOMBSHELL” to destroy James Talarico. Then their smear fell apart under the most basic scrutiny. Now THEIR tactics are raising serious legal questions—and one admitted “public humiliation” was the goal. This backfired spectacularly.

It's deeply irresponsible to treat anything Trump says as credible. He's flailing and desperate to save face, and he knows he can lie because the corporate media will dutifully parrot his words and spread his propaganda. There's a good chance Zelenskyy has no idea what the hell he's talking about.

Explained: Zelenskyy is using strategic amplification and selective validation, publicly endorsing a prominent Trump loyalist's dissent on Ukraine to exploit an existing MAGA factional divide. The tactic creates internal friction, potentially triggering infighting without directly confronting Trump.
