Abortion is healthcare
Democracy is worth fighting for
Trans rights are human rights always and forever 💕

She/her personal account.
YESSSSS!

It’s not just Texas we’re fighting against. It’s NC, PA, WI and a whole SLEW of other states that have gerrymandered the voters to oblivion.

Blue states have to stop handwringing and act like countervailing weights on the scale.

Bring the goddamn missiles!
@marcelias.bsky.social: We "need to tell Republicans that if they take 5 seats, we're going to put 30 seats on the table... When people say to me 'don't bring a knife to a gunfight,' I don't even want to bring a gun to a gunfight. I want to bring missiles to the gunfight."

Y’all are safe and welcome at @ppvsat.bsky.social 💕
Trans and non-binary people deserve access to gender-affirming care without stigma or barriers.

No person or legislative body should be able to block the care you need.

You are loved and you are valid. 🏳️‍⚧️💖

This is quite the pair of headlines. But sure, yea, blame DEI instead 👍

It’s not fine for an anti-abortion zealot to be released from prison on a presidential pardon and go right back to harassing patients and staff. But that’s exactly where we are.

The NCGOP embarrassing af, and twice as dangerous 🤦🏻‍♀️
Outrageous! This needs to blow up. They want to throw out 60,000 votes and steal the state Supreme Court election in NC!

In what feeble brain is it acceptable to pardon the people who beat, maimed, blinded and caused serious injury to 169 police officers? Don’t tell me you “back the blue” if you excuse that behavior. I want to hear what cops think about Trump’s intention to pardon cop-beating thugs.

Oh man, I don’t know what’s going to happen but Trump musing about editing the constitution before even getting back into office strikes me as a bad sign of things to come.

Dear god
I've been stuck in the transbay tube due to an earthquake, it is the stuff of nightmares. Now add a tsunami warning and I'm prying the doors open and running for it.

This is what it's meant to be the NCGOP for a long, long time.

They want nothing to do with democracy and everything to do with power, plain and simple. And they are really good at it.

We're lucky to have @marcelias.bsky.social fighting for us.
Imagine issuing a press release boasting that you are trying to disenfranchise more than 60,000 voters. That is what it means to be the North Carolina GOP.

TRIGGER WARNING: Trans people

Heads up:

If you think this will stop with trans people, you are utterly and completely wrong

They make up roughly 0.5% of the population and are just the first wave these fascists will attempt to erase

You. Are. In. Danger.

Which somehow will be blamed on the incoming D administration.

Probably worth mentioning that the General Assembly's Fiscal Research Division is projecting deficits starting in the 26-27 fiscal year

This is a gross and cynical power grab very thinly veiled as "relief". The country should pay attention, because the NCGOP has been at this a very, very long time. They provide an effective blueprint to the slide into authoritarianism.

The N.Carolina state Senate overrode Gov. Cooper's veto of the bill stripping power from incoming Democrats. It comes down to the House, where 3 Republicans from the western part of the state voted against the original bill because of its fake promise of hurricane relief

It *should*. But it's shocking how easily we are already getting used to their bad acts.

There's SO MUCH to be outraged about, it's impossible to keep up.

The NCGOP has been at this a very, very long time. It's a wonder there's any powers left for them to strip.

#ncpol
This sort of democratic backsliding, where Republicans seek to overturn the effect of an election by reallocating powers away from positions they have lost, has become almost routine now. But it should remain shocking.
Heads up:

North Carolina Republicans just voted to strip the state's incoming Democratic governor and attorney general of key powers — passing a sweeping bill before the GOP most likely loses its veto-proof supermajority in the Legislature next year.

Stop calling Trump’s nominees “loyalists.” They are henchmen.

Meet Trump's FBI director Kash Patel: “I’d shut down the FBI Hoover building on day 1 and reopen it the next day as a museum of the deep state.”

And while Governor Cooper was in Washington advocating for WNC, the NCGOP was here ramming a disgusting power grab through the legislature and calling it Helene Relief.

Out of hundreds of pages of the bill, only about a dozen relate to hurricane relief.

This is 1000% true. We have normalized the horrific and moving to the Right to abandon our values is not the way forward.
Remember this. We are weaker now. “Trump has groomed us.” Try to hold and speak and advocate what you know is right and true. We’ve already moved so far. Don’t change your standards to accommodate their shameless incompetence & cruelty.
