Bucks County ousts ALL Republicans from the Central Bucks and Pennridge school boards after both school boards were ground zero for anti-trans policies in 2021.

The wave is receding.

"So to Donald Trump, if you are watching, and I know you are... I have four words for you.

TURN THE VOLUME UP"

What an excellent, inspiring speech from Mamdani. I haven’t felt chills like this… ever?

New statement from Chuck Schumer:

“Despite not doing anything useful, and in fact being actively harmful to the process in a number of ways, I am here to take credit for other people’s hard work and risks.”
New statement from Chuck Schumer: "Tonight’s results are a repudiation of the Trump agenda. The cruelty, chaos, and greed that define MAGA radicalism and are skyrocketing costs were firmly rejected by the American people." Calls it "a good night for Democrats and our fight to lower costs."

Feeling proud of my state for showing up for voting rights and to, ultimately, protect the most vulnerable communities
California passes proposition 50, which will mean multiple anti-LGBTQ+ Republican congress people will likely lose their seat.

A continual bloodbath for anti-LGBTQ+ Republicans tonight.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

Normal People Don’t Want This Shit is running away with the vote tonight

It’s almost like being a schoolyard bully and picking on the most vulnerable isn’t a winning strategy.
Today is an absolute rebuke of anti-transgender politics, and a real sign that the anti-trans panic is fading.

From VA Gov to Loudoun County to New Jersey to New York City and Pennsylvania, anti-trans Republicans are falling left and right.
Democrats are currently ahead in 63 (!!!) races in the Virginia House of Delegates.

If this holds, it would be one of the largest state legislature swings in the last 4 years.

Its an absolute bloodbath for anti-trans Republicans.

I sincerely hope Democrats pay attention to tonight’s results across the country. They won’t learn anything but still. Maybe. People are excited by change and original campaigns and bold ideas and candidates under the age of 50!

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

"law-abiding" is doing some heavy lifting because they're trying to criminalize being queer/trans
Oh my god, Trump actually got the NRA to come out to defend trans people owning a gun.

What we are not going to do is pretend that we should be listening to Jillian Michael’s (a lesbian btw) airing lazy and incorrect talking points that shape her pathetic world view. Fuck her and the exercise mat she rode in on.

Feeling overwhelmed and stressed? (Given the world right now, I would be concerned if you didn’t!) This is a practice that many therapists teach their clients to help combat the physical symptoms of stress and anxiety.
