Hey, if you're represented by Henry Cuellar (TX) Don Davis (NC) Cleo Fields (LA) Laura Gillen (NY) Vicente Gonzalez (TX) Marcy Kaptur (OH) Marie Glusenkamp Perez (WA) Eugene Vindman (VA) Give 'em a jingle and ask why they're voting with Republicans to support HR 2616, the national book ban bill?

Ya’ll, I took the new train into Seattle, and met another trans girl who was also excited about the fact that we have the world’s first (technically second) train on a floating bridge and my wife called it the Trains Day of Visibility.

Never stop fighting. I will fight for trans rights until I leave this earth. They're not going to win. But until then, protect trans kids with everything you've got.

Kansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

An official letter from the Kansas Division of Vehicles dated February 23, 2026, with a redacted recipient address. The letter notifies the recipient that due to the enactment of Senate Bill 244, all Kansas driver's licenses and IDs must reflect the holder's sex at birth. It states that the recipient's current credential will become invalid immediately upon the law's publication on February 26, 2026, with no grace period. The recipient is directed to surrender their current ID to receive a new one matching their sex assigned at birth. The document concludes with instructions on how to appeal the notice if received in error, along with contact information for the department.

Does anyone else get the sense that RI officials decided to respond to criticism of snow removal after the late January storm by saying, "Oh, you thought we did a bad job? THAT seemed like a bad job? Let's see how you like NO SNOW REMOVAL AT ALL!" …or is that just my street?

For my @xtramagazine.com column this month, I explained why Gavin Newsom's flirtation with anti-trans policy won't win a single conservative or centrist vote for him and also makes him a non-starter for trans lefties. xtramagazine.com/power/politi...

The California governor’s backpedaling on trans rights represents a grim shift, two years out from the first presidential primaries

My cat, Onyx, & I are housesitting my parents’ house this week. It’s in the woods, & there are mice. Onyx had quite a night last night. She enjoyed several rounds of running around my room with a stunned mouse in her mouth, dropping it, then crashing around as it ran for safety under the radiator.

[daintily clears throat] THE IDEA THAT DEMOCRATS BENEFIT ELECTORALLY BY BENDING RIGHTWARD ON KEY MORAL ISSUES LIKE TRANS RIGHTS AND IMMIGRATION HAS NOW BEEN THOROUGHLY DEBUNKED. [coughs; daintily clears throat]

Trump Spent 2025 Making Trans Lives Unlivable. It’s Time for Democrats to Defend Them.

Elected Democrats haven’t done nearly enough to oppose attacks on gender-affirming care. They risk being on the wrong side of history.
