Dolly Parton lived with a gay man for years. She was a vocal advocate for LGBTQ+ folks and a philanthropic champion of childhood literacy and education, vaccines, and the black people in her community. "We don't know what her politics were"? Please. She lived them. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/27/a...

You either believe that a state is entitled to deny self-government or self-determination to 33% of its population indefinitely based on ethnicity or you don't. Everything else is commentary.

it is genuinely crazy that voters consistently say they think democrats are not attentive to the issues that matter to them like the economy and centrist writers’ solutions to this involve democrats loudly talking about cultural preoccupations

stop. if you think the existence of a warrant is part of the conversation in any way, you cannot, by definition, argue that it makes any difference whether the guy they killed had a warrant or not. because right guy or wrong guy, an arrest warrant isn't a death sentence.

Kind of interesting to see Crockett's supporters say "electability is rooted in racism" when Lucy McBath, Raphael Warnock and Lauren Underwood all flipped Republican-held seats in places Trump previously won. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Crockett’s supporters see the electability conversation as a racist and sexist dog whistle that white male candidates like Talarico never have to engage with.

“Electability is rooted in racism,” said E.J. Carrion, a Fort Worth political activist and Crockett supporter. “James [Talarico] is less threatening to people, and I think if just those people who say that actually voted for the most qualified candidate, you wouldn’t have a problem.”
