It was a pleasure meeting with Dayton, Ohio, Mayor Shenise Turner-Sloss this week. We had a productive conversation about strengthening communities, neighborhood safety, and which issues matter most to the people of our cities.

Q: You voted in favor of the war in Iran. It's proven to be pretty unpopular. What do you see as the offramp here? HUSTED: First of all, I didn't- that's not what that vote was. Here's the bottom line. These are the people that want higher gas prices right now. Iran, Russia, & Democrats in Congress

New in PN: Transgender athletes are a red herring "None of this discourse happened bc there is a new high-profile trans athlete in the news. Instead, Republicans are starting a culture war to rile up their base, co-opt Dems into agreeing with them, & push trans people out of public life altogether"

Listen to Todd Blanche—Trump’s nominee for AG—tell faith leaders that the Justice Dept is working with the White House to stop the shipping of abortion pills into banned states. “We will have victory, victory will be soon, and it will be permanent,” he said.

fuck em up Todd
Screenshot from Mark's article about a recent ruling by Hawaii Supreme Court Justice Todd Eddins, reading as follows:

The Roberts court, Eddins declared, “sees only white. It refuses to acknowledge who the Equal Protection Clause was written to protect. The freed people, their descendants, and all others denied equal citizenship. It turns its back on what is in plain sight. The Fourteenth Amendment is not colorblind. It never was.” He continued:

The court calls the Constitution colorblind while engineering the dilution of Black votes, the unraveling of hard-fought civil rights remedies, and the erasure of Black history. That is not blindness. That is white sight, by design. A Constitution interpreted this way is not colorblind. It is whatever the court needs it to be. A way to advance its partisan project.
