Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳

Good-faith concern on this issue would be going, "hmm, professional sports leagues should probably have some standards in place to ensure trans competitors aren't getting an unfair advantage," googling for 5 minutes, realizing every sports league already has those standards and dropping it.

@adriannefblack.bsky.social I have an MA student who would like to discuss your story in a presentation about escaping from echo chambers. He would like to show images of stories about you and an image of your book, but is concerned about displaying your previous name. What would you prefer?

Another option would be that it’s an utterance that will carry different implicatures for different people due to their background assumptions. At one time I might have called that a dogwhistle but now I am not so sure.

Jenny Saul @jennysaul.bsky.social · 05/02/2026

Ok then I think it may be a dogwhistle. Though I wonder if it’s conventionalised enough.

Jenny Saul @jennysaul.bsky.social · 04/02/2026

This thought is why I don't think 'religious freedom' and 'protest women' are anti-trans dogwhistles. Those are (usually) said by people openly making an argument that widely accepted values have anti-trans consequences.

Jenny Saul @jennysaul.bsky.social · 04/02/2026

I'm not certain that's what he's doing: he might also be calling upon a widely accepted value (privacy) to make a pro-trans argument, without any effort to conceal.

120

Jenny Saul @jennysaul.bsky.social · 04/02/2026

To be a dogwhistle, 'invading student privacy' would need to be a conventionalized way of communicating 'I'm pro-trans' to some people while other people fail to realize this.

Jenny Saul @jennysaul.bsky.social · 01/02/2026

I like it but I’m uncertain it’s a dogwhistle….

Holy shit. Reuters reporting that new admin instructions on visas are if you worked at a platform in trust & safety or content moderation or on fact checking or online safety at an platform you *and your loved ones* are ineligible for H-1B visa. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

The cable, sent to all U.S. missions on December 2, orders U.S. consular officers to review resumes or LinkedIn profiles of H-1B applicants - and family members who would be traveling with them - to see if they have worked in areas that include activities such as misinformation, disinformation, content moderation, fact-checking, compliance and online safety, among others.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.
