Yep, we can even "hand it to" this pile of human diarrhea.

1. In a landmark ruling, the Montana Supreme Court has declared that the constitution, one of the most progressive in the nation, entirely protects transgender people. The ruling is even insulated from SCOTUS decisions, due to how state constitutions work. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I adore Max so I say this with respect: this is the wrong line of questions The correct one is: what are the political conditions in Maine such that he is more popular than his opponents with working class white folks *and* POC despite his problems? Why don’t the Dems do better talent development?

Suburbanites aren't staying away from downtown Minneapolis because of crime, they're doing it because of Netflix. They go out once a month instead of twice a week and every other force is downstream from that.

GAME CHANGER: Montana just found the "exit ramp" to kill Citizens United. They aren't waiting for the Supreme Court—they’re going around them. 74% of voters are on board and corporate lawyers are PANICKING. This is how we win. 🏔️💸 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/army-secre...

Joe Rogan is right. Whatever he said before or says next, he's correct right now. American life now comes down to right vs left identity, and we reflexively protect our identity. The "logical centrist" govt he wants is not Kamala or Gavin, it's literally having bipartisanship and negotiation again.🧵

Add to woke 2.0 list: the same thing that triggers SSS registration will trigger, for all citizens, voter eligibility notification to the states. Then states can use that to automatically register the citizen at their known address. (Red states would eventually opt to do it too.)

On "Handing It to Them"

The Democratic establishment needs a hard pivot, starting yesterday, on Israel. Unfortunately, still not there yet. Meanwhile, the worst people, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Megyn Kelly are expressing the majority's opinion. Self-destructive political incompetence. For what?

"it's giving war crime" in a southern accent is just going to play on loop in my head the rest of the day

Goddamnit, you people are making him be right. Not about the genocide in Palestine, there's something wrong with him for resisting recognizing it. But he's getting the "who doesn't want to wear the ribbon?" treatment from people who live to snarkily take people down and pile on and on. For what?

He’s Trumpshit insane and should be in prison or a mental hospital.

I wish all the media outlets carrying the Trump narrative of travel chaos would actually report this experience. TSA and travelers working together under suboptimal conditions. De facto solidarity against fascist manufactured austerity.
