I did outreach & GOTV supporting Kamala in Georgia for two months. This was my experience. tl dr: not one person said they weren't supporting her over trans rights. Disclaimer: I worked for a 501c4 not coordinating with campaign, just to get that out of the way. Notes on my experience: 1/10

Cool ableism, thanks for sharing. I'm sure this ethical dilemma of allowing disabled people to exist a real toughie for many of your readers.
A reader asked the Ethicist: My neighbor's developmentally disabled son wails every afternoon. Homes in our pricey ZIP code are rarely on the market. If a new family moves in unaware, the noise could make their house unsalable. Should I warn the buyers? nyti.ms/4a6yhIA

Katelyn comes to the conclusion that “olivia nuzzi was failed by a misogynistic society that pimps young women off to old powerful men” and “olivia nuzzi just seems plainly an awful person” are both true, and yeah that is true

I'm having complicated and frustrated thoughts about having to see reminders all over my feed that the president said something jaw-droppingly fatphobic in public while at the same time wondering how many of those people themselves make fat jokes and only clock this one as bad because Trump said it

Condé Nast emptied out every single trans and Black journalist from Teen Vogue while clearing a six figure salary for a woman who slept with people she was covering while she mocked real concerns about their fitness

Lord knows I need money but this is SYSTEMIC
And they're taking up space that could be better used by other people, people who have fucking integrity.

People like Sydette.
Nuzzi may be a joke or punchline , but she got into position by being constantly excused for being an abusive manipulative ass.

And falling back to the same schtick of being “seduced “ by men and”jealous es” by women

And you know someone like her right the fuck now

Who you’re NOT stopping

So 💔 & angry… that Alice is gone, Teen Vogue is gone, community care is all but gone, but dangerous infectious diseases are still being given red carpet treatment. The disability, Long Covid, & ME communities keep losing people, & it doesn’t have to be this way. We can do better. We must.
Respect Alice Wong’s call here:
“When I am in public spaces and see most people unmasked either because they think the virus is a hoax, that masking is virtue signaling & a sign of weakness, aren't thinking about it, or that they simply don’t care, I feel like an expendable burden not worth saving.”
COVID Isn’t Going Anywhere. Masking Up Could Save My Life.

I can't see the Northern Lights and am so sad. I went in the background and say something but it could be light pollution. People all over Georgia are seeing then, PS what ridiculous anti science conspiracy theory is this going to generate?

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.
so currently defectors are:

Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)

Gimme a break. If @schumer.senate.gov is truly against the deal and can’t whip the votes, he has no business being leader.

They're going to strip healthcare from their constituents rather than risk experiencing inconvenience.
not enough chatter about how frequently members fly and how attacking airport capacity directly affects them in a way that cutting SNAP does not

I never thought I would say this but Ritchie Torres is right. Yeah, I know. I also need a minute here. WITH the subsidy my premium has gone from $50-$250 next year, without it will be more than my rent so I guess I will just go die.
The proposal is “not a deal," says Democratic U.S. House Rep. Ritchie Torres.

"It’s an unconditional surrender that abandons the 24 million Americans whose health care premiums are about to double.”

Honestly looking forward to this ruling. Either SCOTUS rules against Trump or they reveal themselves to be as in Trump’s pocket as humanly possible.
Is it good politics to ask the Supreme Court if you can continue starving people?

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

HAKEEM JEFFERSON IS A COLLEGE PROFESSOR, NOT A MEMBER OF DEM LEADERSHIP. Yes, people make this mistake so much it is in his header. Please stop yelling at this nice man with great takes. You should follow him.
I’ve been interested in political speeches for as long as I can remember. I’ve listened to nearly every inaugural and major address, and I’ve given tons of public speeches myself.

Zohran’s talent in this arena ranks among the best. He’s damn good. Hella good. Remarkably good.

Crazy to watch.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.

At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

I fully expect that if, on Monday, USDA does anything other than tell the court how much money it will be funding SNAP with, the judge will issue an emergency temporary order mandating that USDA fund SNAP.

Gavin is in many ways an empty opportunist, espousing any ideology that gets him the spotlight, but when it comes to this, he is a true believer. He’s thrilled to have a platform from which to tell you his plans to dehumanize and further terrorize trans kids.
Finally watched the Gavin Newsom interview & fuck. The moment he’s asked why he agreed w/Charlie Kirk about banning trans ppl in sports, he immediately says “Because I believe that” & doubles down then has the audacity to say no one has defended trans people more. Fuck off. youtu.be/4Dm3diA6z08?...
