This is a great read and a much needed shot in the arm. Joy, courage and hope are all around us. We only need to pay heed and notice. open.substack.com/pub/thejenni...

Ha! After today, this is so true!

Talk about the power of the people! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

“The myth that schools are secretly transitioning students behind their parents’ backs has become central to the current anti-trans moral panic that swept the nation. Even the few stories conservatives promote as proof that teachers are forcibly transitioning kids fall apart under scrutiny.” MYTH

Creative use of nouns as adjectives, I respect that!

What the what, PA?! 🤪

Blue no matter who should be stricken from the vernacular of everyone who actually wants to persuade people to participate in elections. It’s dumb and unpersuasive. You can do better (and really should).

I canvassed an Unaffiliated voter who was considered unreliable for midterm voting but someone who’d vote our way. She told us right away that we’d be disappointed bc she was MAGA…except that she wasn’t. Idk why she said that, bc we had common ground on a lot of things that were Dem positions. 1/2

This right here ⬇️

YAY! Rachel #Maddow is covering my obsession that I've been posting about for 2 months! She is reporting on tomorrow's 2 Georgia State Supreme Court races and our two candidates: Miracle Rankin and Jen Jordan! Let's gooooo!

So the Whitehouse is releasing the same pre-recorded message for two different events. Wow…..people have been saying we’ve reached the Weekends With Bernie stage, so I guess we are there.

When the state is disenfranchising its Black voters, there's zero question why ROOTS was just banned in Knox County, Tennessee schools.

It was never about state’s rights to decide. It was always about ending abortion, period. His reaction proves it.

We....YOU & ME are Democracy. We have not yet been loud enough. @fairfightaction.bsky.social @staceyabrams.com

This is a good overview of where we are….and how the fight can prevail.

Thoughts & prayers to the EPA :(

The buried lede here is that more Republican men say they would win a fight with a *bear* than a fight with Trump.

RESULT out of Texas. The Lake Travis school district in the Austin area become a focal point for book bans (see this story from 2024: www.kut.org/education/20...) Two conservatives school board members who were integral to that push just lost their reelection bids tonight, and are ousted.

“Trump’s policy of crude threats has reached its limits,” said a German official. “His rhetoric has worn thin. Withdrawing U.S. troops from Germany would severely weaken the U.S. itself, and we wonder when the adults in D.C. plan to step back into the spotlight.”

Withdrawing 5,000 troops from Germany only weakens the US. We weren’t there to protect Germany. MAGA is so delusional.

“If Republicans make good on their threats, the choice for Democrats will be stark: Push forward, or perish. If Republicans don’t like it, too bad: This is the world they wanted, and it is they who are now inflicting it upon us.” @gregsargent.bsky.social is 100% right.

Democrats have no choice now. We must do this since Republicans have chosen not to fight fairly.

Great article!

Remove….cancel….nix

He walked right into that one….and his fierce denial is such a “tell”.

This all looks so odd! I can’t believe they are continuing this if it was a real assailant.

Yeah….this entire thing isn’t making any sense.

Trump had another mental health episode and spiraled out of control on social media last night: 12:18am - Demands Chuck Schumer resign 12:19am - Posts a tweet saying Obama tried to “overthrow the government in 2016.” /1

We can’t normalize this. This is awful policy and not normal. Freedom of thought at our higher education institutions is imperative. www.erininthemorning.com/p/texas-tech...

She is soooo good at this! Damn, I'll miss her being in Congress. @crockett.house.gov

Texas republicans illegally gerrymandered their maps and never once asked voters how they feel about it. California and Virginia let voters decide. That’s the difference. They started this fight and Democrats are going to fucking finish it.

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

He said it better than I could have!

🤬🤬🤬

TOMORROW, April 21, 6am–7pm, it’s time to fix this rigged system. Vote YES for elections that actually represent all of us—Black, brown, rural, urban, everybody. We, the people have the power! #VoteYesVirginia

I'm glad that people like this author exist and live to expose what this travesty of an administration have done. But I'm crushed by what's been lost and will have to be rebuilt - rebuilt to better withstand authoritarianism. www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

Peter Thiel, who thinks freedom & democracy are incompatible, and hates the social safety net & women voting, is trying to buy the outcome of VA’s redistricting vote to further his disgusting anti-democratic views. Don’t let him!!!!! VOTE YES, Virginia, on 4/21, to stop Thiel.

Amazing! This is the line to get into Peter Buttigieg’s town hall in Tulsa tonight.

Are we surprised?

Keep your eyes on this vote!

The plot thickens! I don’t think we’ve heard the last of this.

When you’re catholic for a minute I guess you think you can school the pope on theology………?

My first bucket hat! #crochet

Let’s see if this takes off.

Ha!

Virginia! Vote YES on the redistricting referendum! Don’t let Republican gerrymandering silence your voices! Visit voteyes.us for more info! #VirginiaVoteYes #ProudBlue #Pinks #OneV1
