Shame on every supporter of this harmful bill, but especially the eight Democrats who voted with Republicans to forcibly out trans kids.

8 Democrats Help Pass GOP Bill Forcing Teachers To Out Transgender Students
The bill requires educators to get parental consent for changing a student's pronouns or preferred names on any school forms. It also bans teachers from talking about trans people at all.

This is MAGA. This is what we are fighting. They don’t want bipartisanship, they don’t want to work with you, they want you DEAD. This is why we criticize Dems who cave to MAGA. You aren’t being “bipartisan”; you’re being an example of Stockholm Syndrome. Kudos to Vindman for hitting back.

Veterans make up nearly 1 in 4 federal employees, and 15% of the National Park Service. The federal government is the largest employer of veterans in the country. #VeteransDay #NPS

For the first time all year, Democrats were riding high and the regime was on the ropes. If Senate leadership’s goal was to demobilize and depress rank-and-file Democrats, they could not have played their cards better. This is why we’ve launched the largest primary program that we’ve ever run.

Meet the Cowardly Eight. These eight Democrats snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. But they are just a symptom of a larger problem; the DNC and its leadership are woefully out of touch with its constituents and reality. For fellow Virginians, I’ll leave this here: www.kaine.senate.gov/contact
