Democrats are anti-housing? That’s a new, weird, and incorrect one.

That’s a much deeper problem than this hospital debate. A lot of anti-transgender ideology is predicated on the assumption that straight men are sexual predators, which makes anti-trans stuff seem like a smokescreen to protect them.

The UK implementing the mandated segregation of trans people in aspects of society, from bathrooms to hospitals and schools is why I tell people to never vote for anti-trans Dems. They cannot be allowed to spread in the party like the cancer they are. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Today I learned that Sam Alito, a sitting Supreme Court justice, has gotten personally involved in the fight to save a Christopher Columbus statue in his hometown, providing a statement to the city council about the "insult to the Italian American community" www.nytimes.com/2026/10/11/o...
Gilda Rorro, a longtime leader in the New Jersey Italian community, began lobbying to reinstate the statue in Chambersburg after discussing the matter with an upset Justice Alito in 2020. She said she read aloud a statement written by the justice to the Trenton City Council arguing that the statue does not symbolize Columbus's deeds but rather the immigrants themselves.
"Poor Italian peasants made a long and difficult journey leaving everything they knew behind. And while many people in this country did not accept them, they wanted to claim that they had a rightful place here," Dr. Rorro said, quoting Justice Alito's message to the City Council in 2020. "That is what the statue symbolizes, and removing it is an insult to the Italian American community, tantamount to saying that their experience, all that they endured and contributed, accounts for nothing."

BREAKING WaPo: Trump officials scrutinized Rep. Ilhan Omar in 2019. They didn't find citizenship issues. 
The earlier review of Omar's immigration records looked at many of the same issues being investigated now.

But the thing is it doesn’t even guarantee a Dem win, and it might even decrease turnout among people who don’t feel strong about voting. I think Dems should be pushing for an end to private funding of campaigns, in general.

The federal government is going after Ilhan Omar only because of her race, gender, religion, and party, openly admitting they have no probable cause and aim to manufacture something. Worse because she’s a sitting member of Congress. That makes it an attack on her constituents and US democracy too.
