I’m seeing a lot of posts about talking to your sons in light of the Cornell article. And yes. Talk to your sons. Here are some things you should say, based on anti-violence research about what they need to hear:

I'm not even getting into the science of it because who fucking cares. It's a non-issue that is unlikely to ever affect you. The first sports ban was Idaho in 2020 and nobody gave a fuck before then. Hell, in 2016, the country revolted when North Carolina passed a bathroom ban. It's so dumb.

But if trans girls are "cheating" by playing women's sports, what else are the sneaky trans people cheating about. They're also coming for Title IX. They don't care about women in sports. They want women out of sports. Please, I am begging you, stop falling for this shit.

What's happening is that Republicans are priming Democrats and Democratic voters for more violent forms of transphobia. They're manipulating people into caring about something that is most likely never going to affect them.

Before the NCAA capitulated to this nonsense and banned trans women from competing on women's sports teams, the head of the NCAA told a Senate panel that he knew of less than 10 athletes competing in sports in the NCAA. What are we fucking doing here, people. It's a non-issue.

Save Women's Sports, an anti-trans organization whose entire existence is built around ferreting out trans athletes who want to run rougshod over your cisgender girl could only find 5 athletes competing K-12. Five.

There's close to a 0% chance that your kid is going to end up competing against a trans athlete in a sport. But six years ago, Republicans decided everybody has to care and by the time Roe fell, it was their new chosen culture war issue.

The trans women in sports panic has got to be one of the GOP's most successful manufactured culture war campaigns. Somehow they got a lot of people who would otherwise say they support trans rights to somehow fear "fairness" in sports. It's a non-issue.

In case you hadn't heard, ICE has been ramping up activity in the South Metro and is snatching people from cars and leaving abandoned vehicles on the side of the road, at gas stations, etc. At least two abductions in Savage this week. Carry your whistles. Stay alert.

No one against impeaching Trump officials for egregious lawbreaking and Constitutional violations points out a downside. Gets the House additional investigatory powers. That alone makes it worth it. Do you not want power or do you want the full account to stay hidden from the public? Which is it?

I had a spirited discussion with an organizer comrade about this last month... Given no actual opposition party and constant bleating about "big tents," it's likely that the fascists come back better organized and more ruthlessly efficient post Trump. Lots of people are unwilling to consider this.

Interesting hypotheticals here from a recent YouGov survey in @dhmontgomery.com's Surveyor newsletter. The 10 point "not sure" range for the DSA/MAGA split is I think important to keep in mind alongside the actual choice splits. yougovamerica.substack.com/p/democrats-...

I don't have time to write more, but ICE is working to remove people to third countries in violation of D.V.D. v. DHS. I've been up since 5:20 A.M. working with two other attorneys to prevent our client from being shipped out. If you rep someone at risk of third country removal, check on them NOW

At the Alex Pretti Memorial: Anonymous Kid says "Keep Fighting Minnesotans!" and a 1937 photo of Madrid "MINNESOTA WILL BE THE TOMB OF FASCISM". Minneapolis, September 2026
Dear Minnesota,
I know your probably going through a lot right
now... And I just wanted to say that this is
NOT normal, and your probably also really
scared, but I don't think anyone is NOT
afraid right now. But I believe that we
can work together to get ICE out of MN!
If we keep fighting against them, I believe
we can do it, if we ALL try, together.
KEEP Fighting
Minnesotans!! ♥
We got this!
– Anonymous Kid ♥The image is from a famous photo of Madrid in 1937 after the city had withstood an attack by Franco’s forces. The citizens had been helped by the arrival of some units of the International Brigades many of whom were Americans. These Americans were later demonized during the McCarthy era for being premature anti-fascists.
We have translated some of the wording of the banner. NO PASARAN translates literally as THEY SHALL NOT PASS. The bottom writing on the banner says that MADRID WILL BE TOMB OF FASCISM. We used a little poetic license to hope that MINNESOTA WILL BE THE TOMB OF FASCISM.
We have to keep up the fight for the long-term. We can’t get tired. When we heard the Becca Good, the widow of Renee Good say, “They had guns we had whistles...” It reminded us of what was said after democracy lost the Spanish Civil War. “We had better music, but they had better guns and more of them.”
We can’t outshoot them and we shouldn’t try but we can outsmart them.

A teacher earning $60,000 pays Social Security taxes on every dollar she earns. A worker earning $184,500 does too. But someone earning $10 million pays tax on just the first $184,500. That doesn’t make sense. We can protect Social Security if everyone paid their fair share.

Economist/YouGov Sep 18-21 In four hypothetical House matchups, the Democrat wins every one A liberal Democrat beats a MAGA Republican by 22 points; a Democratic socialist beats a conservative Republican by 12 yougov.com/en-us/articles/55604
A chart of YouGov polling data with the headline: "Liberal and socialist Democrats each lead both traditional and MAGA Republicans in hypothetical races."

The chart's sub-headline is: "Who would you vote for if these were the candidates? (% of likely voters)The full options presented to respondents:Liberal Democrat: Liberal Democrat who wants to protect Obamacare (ACA), increase support for child care and housing, and opposes tariffsDemocratic socialist: Democratic socialist who supports Medicare for All, ending military aid to Israel, and abolishing ICEConservative Republican: Conservative Republican who supports tax cuts, repealing Obamacare, and a ban on most abortionsMAGA Republican: MAGA Republican who supports mass deportations and always votes with Trump."

The chart has the note: "Note: Likely voters are U.S. adult citizens who meet two criteria: (1) They either are registered to vote or say they will be registered to vote by the November elections; and (2) They either say they will definitely vote in November or say they have already voted."

Bennoune: I was skeptical when I started thinking about this whether "crimes against humanity" applies. But as I came to Minnesota and talked to people here, it became clear that it applies. The federal govt turning against its own population. Connects to other actions around the country.
