NEWS — Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear criticizes fellow Democrats who say transgender athletes should be barred from women’s sports. “That is not the party that we are. We start as a party of compassion and empathy.”

Golden State Valkyries forward Gabby Williams: “There’s a lot of discourse around trans athletes and what they can compete in. I would welcome a trans athlete on my team or against my team. Anytime. I don’t think it’s a problem in the world, it’s just another way to kind of attack trans people.”

I, for one, think it’s bad the the world’s richest man is using the media platform he bought to advocate for sending my wife back to China and for me to be killed by the state for loving her. That feels like it’s so far over the line that I shouldn’t have to say anything.

Cheryl Reeve is a fucking real one. We need more leaders in the WNBA like her.
Tweet from @adukeMN:

Cheryl Reeve on the trans sports bans from her perspective of being a leader in women’s sports

“Of course it weighs on me, the attacks on trans people, the attacks that they’ve gone through… it seems like it’s got way more aggressive, it’s sort of sickening when the issues they are trying to tackle are really not issues, the number of transgender athletes they are now making laws for and creating a problem, to get elected…what I’m hopeful for is that people have gotten themselves more educated and they understand that, that’s not actually a problem… exclusion is never the answer, separate isn’t equal, and trans lives matter, so to take away something that’s so valuable that sports brings to young people in particular and what it does, as I have a youngster, encourages you to be part of a team and what it gives you in terms of teamwork, leadership, competitiveness, all the things, they have every right to that as well”

The thing you need to understand is that there are 2 (TWO) different method for amending the constitution 1) The process laid out in the constititon itself (conventions, or 2/3's of both houses followed by 3/4 of states ratifying) OR 2) find five votes on the Supreme Court.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

Liberal democracy requires a certain degree of rationality from its citizenry, whose responsibility it is to pick leaders who make things better and not worse. Break the fundamental linkage between real conditions and political outcomes, and you've created an ideal environment for fascism to thrive.

A lot of attention is paid to craft traditions in Western Europe and North America, such as handsewn Hermes leather goods and bespoke Savile Row suits. But the uneven focus leads some to believe that things made outside of these places are low quality. This is not true. 🧵

He's right—but just to be super clear, that doesn't mean all term limits are bad! Executive term limits are good. Judicial term limits are excellent. But legislative term limits weaken legislatures and empower lobbyists. The legislature is the one branch that shouldn't have term limits.
