Pragmatic progressives — armed with bread-and-butter proposals to improve the lives of ordinary Americans and an upbeat message of hope — are the future of the Democratic Party.

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

Yesterday, millions of us reasserted the “We” in "We the people."
We gained strength from our solidarity. We celebrated our numbers and our power.
We will be steadfast. We will not cower to a dictator.
We will win.

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

Zooey is doing WORK in Montana and teaching everyone several lessons:
1) You can stand on your values as a Democrat and not harm trans people.
2) Doing so can actually move hearts and minds in a traditionally conservative state.
3) There is value in having representation in our halls of power.

Two more wins for trans people in Montana!
(1) A bill creating a new "indecent exposure" crime for trans people was amended to remove the anti-trans provision.
(2) A bill allowing detransitoners to sue their doctor was amended to only be valid if the doctors didn't follow medical best practices.

JUST BECAUSE THE CLOWN CAR GOES VERY FAST DOES NOT MEAN IT ISN’T FULL OF CLOWNS
the speed at which these guys have broken everything has given a lot of folks who should know better the impression that they are an unstoppable force and the only option is to negotiate the terms of surrender
just because the clown car goes very fast does not mean it isn’t full of clowns
just because the clown car goes very fast does not mean it isn’t full of clowns
Whatever the immediate fallout of the scandal, what is going to stick around is the impression it gives, of hapless idiots doing ridiculous things. And I think that seriously reduces the appeal of capitulating to these jokers.

1. Huge! Texas A&M's drag ban is blocked. A&M argued that Trump's recent EO on trans people mandated a drag ban, and also argued that drag is obscene.
A Bush-appointed judge replied that Trump's EOs "cannot override the first amendment," and that drag is art.

McBride shot back, calling the chairman "Madam Chairman."
Fireworks erupted, Dems protested, and the hearing was cancelled.
