It's important to remind readers that while there are a few anti-trans dems, many are doing great work. Spanberger in VA did not flinch at anti-trans attacks. Now, she just ended Governor Youngkin's infamous rule that would ban trans students from bathrooms. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Reminder that a large portion of the dumb stuff Trump does that makes him seem like an idiot is also being used to distract attention away from problems that really matter, like being able to afford food and rent, or stopping a pointless and expensive war. Keep your eyes on what matters.

Can I let you in on a little secret? It's easy to create lots of jobs that don't pay very well. Yes, the economy added jobs last month, but inflation under Trump continues to eat up wages. The paychecks of most American workers aren’t covering rising costs — they’re getting poorer.
