After joining Ramaswamy in bashing transgender Ohioans, Dr. Amy Acton now agrees with him on a Voter ID Constitutional Amendment. Her entire party is against it. Also, her camapign finally made a statement about TPS protections ending for Haitians. At worst it reads: let's talk about groceries.

“The Haitian community was legally residing here, working, paying taxes and contributing to our communities, and forcing them to leave will negatively impact our economy. However, Ohio must follow federal law,” said Addie Bullock, spokesperson for the Acton campaign. “While so many Ohioans are struggling with the cost of gas, groceries and so many other daily expenses, we should be focused on building an Ohio where all of us can get ahead, not on sowing fear and division."

So, in June, during Pride month, when she didn't have any pro-LGBTQ language on her website, Dr. Amy Acton promised to include Republicans in her cabinet if elected. 2 months later her staff barred leaders of the OH Progressive Causus from attending a listening session on trans rights.

Post on X by Dr. Amy Acton @amyactonoh As governor, I promise to have Republicans in my cabinet --because the best solutions come from working together.

Pretty shocking stuff here. According to @ari4ohio.bsky.social, Dr. Amy Acton's campaign refused to allow the leadership of the Ohio Dem Progressive Caucus to attend last night's listening session after Acton announced support for bans on trans athletes. They also wouldn't let Childrey in either.

Call me anti-American, but ACTUALLY...250 years ago a group of rich white men signed a document to create a slave state, where only white male property owners could vote, women were property, and God sanctioned their genocide against indigenous populations and violent erasure of queer life.

If you're going to be a conspiracy theorist, then I ask that you put a little effort into it.

All Day Astronomy reposts 2 photos of the far side of the moon from the current Artemis II mission. Dr. Naomi Wolf (noted covid conspiracy theorist), reposts on Twitter and writes "Call me ill-informed, I was an English major, but -- what is the light source here?"

Santos Gaitola responds to Naomi Wolf's email with a kid's drawing that shows a person standing on Earth labeled "You". There is the moon with an arrow pointing to the far side of the moon. Behind the far side of the moon is a drawing of the sun.

Not going to censor myself. Why the FUCK is Pew Research Center putting homosexuality on a list of CHOICES for a survey of MORALITY? People choose to gamble, have an abortion, and have an affair. You don't CHOOSE to be gay. What the fuck is wrong with the researchers who created this survey?

For the past 80+ days the Trump admin has lied about the number of ICE officers in Minnesota, how many people were kidnapped, how many were US citizens, how many had criminal records, the locations of detainees, and the welfare of children. My advice: believe nothing until independently verified.

Spent the morning writing, then turned on the news to find out that the new standard of international law is that all countries are subject to US law. And the mood is "well, if you don't break American laws then you'll be fine." Hegseth in the press briefing:

He said adversaries of the U.S. should “remain on notice” that “America can project our will anywhere, anytime.”

“Welcome to 2026, and under President Trump, America is back,” he said.

@boltsmag.org flagged this important school board race in CO. In the unofficial results, it looks like all 4 GOP school members lost. If it holds, that is huge for both the school system and LGBTQ kids. results.enr.clarityelections.com/CO/Douglas/1...

Douglas County, Colorado

Conservatives enjoy a 4 to 3 majority in Douglas County, one of Colorado’s largest school districts, and the right-wing bloc has sided with anti-LGBTQ+ politicians and undermined a state health survey. This fall, all four seats currently held by conservatives are up for grabs (the other three seats are only up in 2027); while the elections are ostensibly nonpartisan, a GOP-supported slate (Keaton Gambill, Dede Kramer, Matt Smith, Steve Vail) faces a Democratic-supported slate (Clark Callahan, Kelly Denzler, Kyrzia Parker, Tony Ryan).
