Some on the far right want to repeal the 19th amendment. Many more share a coercive, patriarchal view of women. I wrote about this and how the far right sees subjugating women as key to building the sort of electorate they need to win. @liberalcurrents.com www.liberalcurrents.com/women-should...

Sandwich man leaving court

It is absolutely INSANE that a Court needs to order federal law enforcement to wear badges

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

Jake Lahut, a Wired reporter who from the Nancy Mace airport story last week, was among those fired. During the incident, CN's HR chief asked staff not to congregate outside his office. Lahut asked "what's your definition of congregating?" and was let go later on Wednesday.

Are you fucking serious? This entire thing today was about health, and someone on the team just flat out collapses.

New: Conde Nast fired four employees who were among a group that confronted the company's head of human resources on Wednesday over the decision to fold Teen Vogue into Vogue/recent cuts. Employees who were fired included journalists from the New Yorker, Wired, and Bon Appétit.

Medical emergency in the White House as someone collapses

A typo. Can we get some better copy editors up in here

the women in the workplace discourse is very funny because a man who can act normal in an office environment that's predominantly female is absolutely on easy street. it's maybe the best gig anyone in history has had. and yet for many guys it is utterly impossible

I’m watching this dizzying political makeover like I would a bad Christmas romcom

well resourced paper Op/Ed sections should could be an amazing space to platform strange, wonderful, and intelligent ideas by artists, activists, scientists, and scholars you've never heard of instead the dull, conservative extraction class converted the whole segment into a contrarian troll farm

Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.” A 16yo American living in fear of the Trump regime’s ICE goons terrorizing brown people pleads for help.

"should women work" but it really means "should men have to ever answer to or even encounter women who are not their wives, offspring, and/or other servile figures"

Road Rules guy big mad about the elections

Sounds like it’s a relevance making lunch for everyone besides Mamdani

A major reason behind the Blue Wave on Tuesday: that the two faces Americans see and connect with the MAGA movement each day are a doddering octogenarian who often can't remember where he is, and a Southern Baptist deacon who lies for a living, very unconvincingly.

I'd say that Trump's all-stick-no-carrot style of despotism rather broadly connects the democracy and the economic argument; anyway if you're not out there saying that authoritarianism makes us all financially poorer off, maybe politics isn't your thing

Mary Sheffield will not only become the 1st woman mayor of Detroit, she is now the youngest Black woman in U.S. History to be elected to a major city.

Amarillo is one of the reddest towns in Texas. But I showed up because our campaign is not writing off any community. It was standing room only.

The only thing more delusional than Qanon and Jewish space lasers is thinking republicans would ever nominate a woman

This is a very good sign about his understanding of what good governance involves

One of the funnier denials I’ve ever read

The Economist is shitting its pants

Bless his heart

Along with everything else, Trump admitting the shutdown led to a bloodbath for Republicans should at an absolute minimum lead Dem Senators to shelve their apparent plan to prematurely cave. He's admitting he and the GOP are in a weak position, Dems. Exploit that!

I really love this for them

Taking a minute to soak in the fact that a Muslim Democratic Socialist immigrant broke 50% in New York City. Just absolutely incredible. I’m not used to feeling this proud

dawg not the steakhouse wedding font

Now you see why Marjorie Taylor Greene put down the steroids and starting saying normal things

BREAKING: Democrats make history and break super majority in deep red Mississippi. Republicans now have 34 seats in the Mississippi Senate, one short of a super majority. No one expected this.

"Others will take time in catching up to that." whew

LOCAL ELECTION RESULT: Let me congratulate @zysaidso.bsky.social for her election to the Charlottesville School Board. For those wondering: Zyahna Bryant was a student organizer who led the successful fight in removing two confederate statues from downtown Charlottesville.

Wild that he’s just saying that last part out loud now

Pennsylvania retains its 5-2 Dem majority on the Supreme Court. Absolute bloodbath tonight for anti-trans Republicans. www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...

Decision Desk has called the New Jersey governors race for Mikie Sherill. Yet another state where millions of dollars in anti trans ads didn't work.

Abigail Spanberger (D) wins the Virginia governor's race, NBC News projects, defeating Winsome Earle-Sears (R).

This UPS plane crash in Louisville is awful.
