Anyway, get to ground. It's always my *advice* [when I offer any]. Get hyper local. Find your people and fight where you are. This is where you can make the most impact and a real difference. Do this as much as you can, take care of yourself, and take care of your people.

Um.... no. I don't think anybody is under the impression that farm workers voted for Trump. A lot of people ARE confused bc they think farmers are peasants, rather than what they are: nepo babies with property. The median SMALL family farmer is a millionaire with a 6-figure income.

Again this should inspire wall-to-wall media coverage for months. The crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement is dead. Black people just lost all of their remaining political power in the South. This is a monumental moment in American history that simply isn't being treated as such.

I continue to think that "backlash politics" is the wrong frame. There has been a counter-revolution against the Black freedom movement for generations. It is a FRONTLASH and I think that not thinking of it this way has done a real disservice. It's been PERMANENT WAR.

This is part of the reason Jim Crow lasted so long. A LOT of people opposed it in theory, but they just didn't want to think about it too much and definitely didn't want to risk anything attacking it. The status quo was good enough for them.

it's so important to add context to these gotcha polling questions. they're polling on this because the president did ask a child this question on camera yesterday, immediately after patting the child on the shoulder and confidently asserting that the child would never become a transgender woman.
