I'm a subscriber, but I also just bought an annual subscription as a gift 2 days ago when I saw the sale price. They will LOVE you for it every month for a year!! Pro tip buy them a bathroom magazine rack to put under the tree.

Like Riley Gains tying for fifth, this is a situation where a cis woman was graded based on the merits of their work but because a trans person was involved it is unfair that they didn’t win.

it’s fun watching people see what trans folks have been warning of for years. the media has no capacity to inform about the politicization of health care

Imagine if this guy were an Afghan immigrant.

remember 'only Andrew Cuomo can handle Trump'

Mamdani can charm the pants off anybody LOL!!!

Turkey better pony up $1 million in cash first, for Trump's "library".

Former Finnish PM Sanna Marin put it bluntly: “To end the conflict, Russia must leave Ukrainian territory.” Just one point. Nothing more to discuss.

It always comes down to the "14 Words" with this administration, especially its online presence.

I'm at the Michigan game! I'm at Wrigley Field! I'm at the combination Michigan game at Wrigley Field!!! GO BLUE!!! 🩵💛🩵💛🩵💛

The resemblance is uncanny!!!

Game recognizes game.

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

On the blog: In approving Trump's transphobic policy of listing sex assigned at birth on passports, SCOTUS said govt was "merely attesting to a historical fact," thus echoing the obtuseness of Plessy v Ferguson's statement that Black folks were only choosing to see segregation as white supremacy. 👇

Mamdani’s win is a warning for media: Better get some leftist contributors or you simply won’t be able to cover/understand what is happening around America.

She is placing a big bet on the post-Trump Republican party, when their voters realize they gave up governing.

I am still skeptical that the Trump FBI would release this stuff involving Trump, even if ordered by Congress. Responses like "they have to" are meaningless with this lawless administration. I am sure they are busy scrubbing every redundant server and hard copy in existence.

Many of them talk about a "big tent", but what they really mean is an "Overton tent". They want the party to pick up the stakes and move the whole thing right, believing they can scold those left behind to vote Dem as the lesser of two evils.

There’s no reason ever again for any Democrat to suggest moderating on trans rights. There was never a moral reason but now there’s no political reason either. Somebody tell Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg. it’s joe-ver.

Democrats HAVE to come up with a response to these attacks, to bury it in the ground. Tell voters "every time you hear these tired old attacks, it means the candidate has nothing to offer you, nothing to improve your life, no plan to govern." Be contemptible and assertive, not defensive. Bury it!

Your egg is cracked. Those are the rules!

The alien spores have broken containment!! It's spreading!

Bill Kristol's evolution has been a thing! First supporting trans rights, now revealing his inner social Democrat.

Republicans thought they had a permanent hold over young men. They didn't. Spanberger wins men 18-29 by 14%, Sherrill by 10%, and Mamdani by a stunning 40%.

Amazing. The man isn't even mayor yet but he's already solving our trash problems.

Is she going to keep yammering about this crap when she's thrown into the detention camps with the rest of us? 🙄

The problem is, centrists and never-Trump center right folks call for a "big tent" Dem party, but what they really want is an "Overton tent" that will move policy away from a significant portion of the base, and that WILL show up in the vote!

This garbage is fan-fiction for bigots.

This performer at Trump’s Great Gatsby party should clear up any suspicions about whether or not he’s in the Epstein Files.

The White Left’s Blind Spot on Race

You would be kicked out of any writer’s room in existence if you had the villains celebrating a Great Gatsby-themed party while taking away food benefits from millions of poor people.

This is my neighborhood too, I live in s.e. Evanston. The Rogers Park incidents were 5-10 minutes down the street as well. These people are all over my city. We are being terrorized by our own government.

Goodnight and Good luck, Usha Vance! Instead of confronting his scandalous embrace with Erika Kirk, or the reality that MAGA rejects his Indian American wife and family, JD Vance has decided to spend Halloween trolling America. thelefthook.substack.com/p/goodnight-...

WHATEVER YOU DO, ... 🔪👻🎃

Just in time for the elections!

You shall not speak ill of God Emperor Trump! And if he is not forced to suffer your continued presence in this country due to "citizenship", you shall be forthwith banished from his empire.

Now we know what's happening with these "disappeared" immigrants!

Democrats, wake up!! Stop listening to your consultants and start fighting for what's morally right!

Let them eat cake!!! But lay off the Starbucks and avocado toast. 🙄

Tell me a scenario in which Trump accepts that his completed ballroom is being used by a Democrat or a Republican he hates. This is, literally, a monument to permanence. It’s not the action of someone planning to leave.

When it comes to rebellion you must not identify as a rebel but as the legitimate owner of the land & governance. Rebellion isn’t really street battles or protests, rebellion is the war for legitimacy as the true masters of your sovereignty, identity, & rule. Resistance are the actions in between.

Nazi tat affair useful because anyone doing bizarre prevarications atm re how its totally normal to have a Nazi tattoo, good actually, not a big deal that'd matter in an election, if anything its cringe you care, etc etc, has revealed you never need to take their politics opinions seriously again.

How I imagine myself getting by in the United States in about 10 years. Disease, poverty, neglect, science abandoned ...

Conservative media criticism? We’ve got to do better, there must be some reason they don’t trust us Liberal media criticism? Time to go on twitter and mock the libs so conservatives know I’m one of the cool ones

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification. I glanced down at the message. “Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began. So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

Sorry to all the center-right never trumpers that the GOP dumped you!! But don't try hooking up with the Democrats and be like "I don't care what he wants, I can change him". Is fascism really preferable to civil rights for trans people?

How about, if you want to team up with Democrats against fascism, maybe YOU should be more flexible about ancillary issues that are nevertheless very important to the left/liberals. Is civil rights for trans people a worse outcome than fascism?!?
