If you're in these states, *TODAY* is deadline to register to vote. Arizona, Arkansas Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas. Even if you think you've registered: doesn't hurt to check! And there's a lot happening across them. A thread with stakes on each. ⬇️

GOP ads right now are all about attacking trans people. Over, and over, and over. I was a gay teen in 2004 watching the Bush campaign try to win on attacking gay marriage, but the resort to this hate drive in campaign ads feels so dialed up now. I can’t imagine being an lgbt kid watching tv today.

When Third Way says that Dems should hold off their anti-trans strategies, you know things are changing. The organization tends to be more centrist, and they are noticing the same thing the far-right is... the Republican anti-trans campaign cycle is NOT working this year.

@rikiwilchins.bsky.social Talarico would do well to recall that "VA Rep nominee Winsome Earle-Sears blanketed airwaves with ads that characterized Dem Abigail Spanberger as 'being for they/them.' Spanberger called for 'getting politics out of our schools and trusting parents” and won by 15%'"

You might be surprised to hear me say this, but I think Zohran Mamdani is the future of the Democratic Party. Just not for the reasons you probably think. He has a sharp strategic mind and the credibility to say uncomfortable truths to his own people and be heard rather than exiled.

We are at the break glass moment on the Democratic Party and its treatment of transgender people, and it is my opinion that if we don’t act now and loudly demand to be heard, we will suffer the consequences of their shift.

Political winds do not only flow from voters to politicians, they go in reverse as well. Democrats running ads like these signal to the general public and their voter base that this issue now has support by both parties, and that hating trans people is publicly acceptable. They do harm to us.

underrated part of El-Sayed’s messaging strategy seems to be shaming journalists who ask dumb questions that play into right-wing frames. you can’t answer these in a way that satisfies them, but you can make it embarrassing enough that you impose a toll on asking.

I've been thinking a lot about the movie Conclave and the need for less certainty and more openness during difficult times. A lot of people want to be certain both factually and morally in a time of immense uncertainty. And that need for certainty blinds us to understanding what is happening.

Trans people tried this in Ohio and Amy Acton didn’t show up and her goons threatened the progressive and Pride caucuses while also shutting trans people out in the meetings her campaign did have (that she didn’t even show up to). If Talarico ever wants to talk I’d be more than glad to.

So yes, I'm harsh on Dems that throw sports under the bus and call trans girls "boys." I know where this leads. And in fact, the attack ads over trans issues have only ramped up after these candidates have floundered.

As someone who has been covering transgender rights for years, let me be clear about something: When you see capitulation over sports, know that it NEVER stops at sports. And in fact, Turek illustrated this just yesterday when he embraced a federal ban on funding for all trans care.
