"What I Saw on the Campaign Trail."
These two paragraphs — by John Avlon, a former journalist turned Democratic candidate in New York's 1st Congressional District— come closer to describing legacy media's portion of the blame than just about anything I have read. www.thebulwark.com/p/what-i-saw...

Agree this has been entirely under reported.
This has gone completely under the radar.
But it’s important.
A Trump-appointed judge just overturned Biden’s overtime rule that would have helped 4 million salaried workers with lower incomes ($35K to $58k).

Fun fact: there was a trans woman in the bathroom I was using today.
You’ll never believe what I did next:
I pissed. I washed my hands. I nodded to them on the way out, and I went on about my day because I’m not a fucking psychopath who cares what bathroom people use.
