I know I should quit eating Thanksgiving leftovers… But I can't quit cold turkey.

140 million people in the US have a pre-existing medical condition. The Affordable Care Act guarantees that they can’t be turned away at the emergency room or denied coverage. Trump and his MAGA Republican enablers in Congress have promised to repeal it. We are going to stop them AGAIN!

The GOP can’t pass a farm bill or appropriation bills or pretty much anything, but has time for crap like this. Nancy Mace and Marjorie Taylor Greene embarrass the institution with their obsession on people‘s private parts. Such an unclassy move. What a way to welcome a new colleague… Embarrassing.

United we stand, divided we fall.

Political cartoon showing a line of dominos. The first one is labeled Trans Rights and has a blue-pink-white trans flag painted on it and is tilting. Three people (representing a trans man, trans woman, and person wearing rainbow colors) are pushing back to keep it from falling. Behind it the second domino is labeled "Gay Rights" and "Freedom of Expression" and has a couple, one member of who is pulling the other from behind the domino and walking towards the first domino. The 3rd one "Women's Rights" and "Free Love", a woman is pointing and shouting to rally others behind the domino to come forwards, the 4th one " Free Speech" and "Democracy" and has people peering out from behind it as well as two people running forwards with a piece of lumber, the 5th one "Freedom of Religion" and "Modernity", and has a few people nervously peeking out from behind it, the 6th one is "Literacy". Dominos 7-10 are unlabeled and faded out in the background.

Text on bottom: "United we stand, Divided we fall"

1. It was never about sports. Some have argued that Democrats should give up on trans people in sports. As a leading transgender journalist covering the issue for years, I can say that this is a strategy doomed to fail. Here's why. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Buckle up: SCOTUS is hearing arguments on gender-affirming care and trans rights. (sorry to bring more bad news) We LOVED this conversation with @imarajones.bsky.social and ACLU's Chase Strangio. open.spotify.com/episode/0qpm...

1. Ohio has become the first state in the aftermath of the election to pass an anti-trans law on the first day of a lame duck session. It is a transgender bathroom ban that even applies to adults in private universities. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Governor Andy Beshear, in a Trump +30 state, gives advice to Democrats: Do not throw LGBTQ+ people under the bus, it will not work. His advice to dems: Lead on your values. This man ran on a fully inclusive campaign in 2023 and won. He received the same kind of ads Harris did.

New in PN: Blue state govs gear up to protect their people "In immediately rolling out programs for resistance, govs also underlined that state Democratic strength has grown since 2016 — which is one way we are better prepared for Trump now than we were then."

Unfortunately, this seem an apt time to share: A group of historians annotated sections of Project 2025, contextualizing and commenting on its plans to undermine environmental protections, exacerbate inequalities, and burn, burn, burn more fossil fuels. #envhist 🌎

Don't mind me. I'm just moving boxes from The Bad Place and hanging art in the new digs. **Never think your vote doesn't matter.**
