People need to acknowledge that all of the loud voices on the "Dems have to move to the center" team are paid by a Super PAC with the express purpose of electing more moderate Dems. They are not putting impartial empirical research out there. it's just Super PAC fundraising masquerading as "data"
none of these people (inclusive of UK labour) seem to understand that voters want their leaders to *lead* them, not reflect their own ill thought preferences back at them

When a group of blue state attorney's general submitted a strident defense of trans healthcare to Trump's FTC, no one in the media covered it.

No one, that is, except for @valorievandieman.bsky.social of Assigned Media, in one of our most read stories of 2025.

Within a month, federal agents from Homeland Security Investigations shot at D.C. drivers two separate times.

The incidents highlight significant differences in how local and federal police respond to crime, as well as what systems of accountability exist, @maustermuhle.bsky.social reports.
When federal agents shoot people in D.C., there are few details – and little accountability
D.C. police officers are held to one standard, federal agents another.

On #TransDayOfRemembrance, we honor our trans siblings lost to fatal violence and their impact.

We will not stop fighting until trans people are not just able to survive, but thrive and live safe, full, and joyful lives. May our collective grief, reflection, and action lead to a better future.
