2024-11-05: What is the plan? Love and service.

DMs open!

We choose mutual aid as a moral and political act - we are caring for our community and knowing we will be cared for in our turn.

The state is going to abandon us but we do not have to abandon ourselves.

we have an elite impunity problem and a lot of the people and institutions that nominally oppose Trump will burn down their own before admitting that this helped produce him
I've said it many times before and Andrew Cuomo is making me say it again: we don't have a cancellation problem. We have never had a cancellation problem. To the contrary, we have a problem that "disgrace" is a very temporary embarrassment— an brief entr'acte more than an intermission.

An analysis of news pieces about Trump’s anti-trans decrees found that “70 percent did not include a quote from a single trans person. Instead, journalists turned to cisgender sources — mostly government officials — to speak about trans people, their lives, and how they would be affected.”

But you can wake a man only if he is really asleep; no effort that you may make will produce any effect upon him if he is merely pretending sleep

We have elite failure baked in the cake at this point and we are seeing ordinary people begin to step up
I am working on a story that involves some of the ways people really are standing up in this moment. There really is a groundswell and it's not coming from DC.
I keep seeing regular Americans taking more risks every day to fight tyranny, want, and cynicism than I see from the opposition party, and I imagine many of those regular Americans are asking themselves what the value proposition of such an opposition party is, really

I particularly hate the suggestion there's some sort of grand bargain in which trans rights are given up in exchange for _______.

No one is offering such a thing. No one would change their vote to Dems after that. The argument exists solely to justify throwing trans people under the bus.
the harris campaign said the “they/them” ad didn’t sway the election.

one of the trump campaign’s top strategists this week said trans rights isn’t in the top five issues for swing voters.

when will the press stop talking about us like we’re a liability and start looking itself in the mirror

Mamdani has now gotten more votes than 1/4 of the members of the United States Senate did when they got elected. The political power being channeled here is immense.

If your newspaper is giving Donald Trump softer headlines and gauzier coverage than People Magazine, that should be a bit of a wake up call.

It is understudied how the people who were objectively right about things like civil rights, fighting apartheid, opposing the gulf war, getting vaccines are vilified for being annoying and the mainstream reaction is: gimme a break hippie 🙄

whether it is feeding the hungry or taking bribes openly in the white house, both sides are problematic
Donald Trump and Zohran Mamdani are set for a dramatic clash, with New York as its stage and victim. The city may soon become an arena for a fight between two men with bad ideas econ.st/4hAdMpv

Mutual aid groups would be glad to come in and give workshops on community support!
Long before all this current b*******, a whole lot of junior enlisted families relied upon assistance for food. It was well known at every level of the military. I was in more than a few meetings at the naval station where we tried to come up with ways to help our sailors and their families on this.
🚨🇺🇸Why isn’t this a top story in America?? It will be on my show today.

I talked today to leaders at Fort Bragg and junior enlisted troops with kids are feeling it. And it’s wrong!

No idea what this means, but this chart is crazy.

It's worth noting that mail-in voting is new here - introduced last year.
