1. If you've scrolled social media lately, you've likely seem Democrats cheering for Gov. Gavin Newsom for trolling Trump relentlessly.

You've also likely seen trans people terrified of a Newsom 2028 run.

I explain why trans people are not feeling Newsom.

Anyone who fails to see that we are careening toward fascism is not paying attention.

Fascism is here. We are not “getting closer” or “in danger of.”

This matters because it frames our discussion: We aren’t trying to prevent it, we’re trying to defeat it. It’s not taking over our institutions, it’s taken them over.

Otherwise, we’re always behind, fighting a past we’ve already lost.

The language Hochul, Pritzker, and Newsom have been using is what we need. All democratic governors should follow their leads. You cannot pussyfoot around fascism. It has to be met, ridiculed, outflanked, and destroyed.

This is insane to hear coming out of the mouth of a sitting president.
Trump: I wish Ghislaine Maxwell well.

Swan: She’s a child sex trafficker.

Trump: Big deal... I do, I wish her well.

This is, to me, the defining dyamic of everything the last six months. Any game theory notion of deterrence or the shoe being on the other foot ever is entirely gone. Either 1) They don't think they'll ever lose power again or 2) they're confident Democrats won't ever do the same things back to them
Budget agreements won’t matter, funding obligations won’t matter, expended funds on the basis of promised reimbursement won’t matter.

You really don’t get the impression the GOP is thinking through what this means for the second they’re not in control.
“We don’t have an appropriations process. It’s broken. It’s been broken for a while,” said Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., who sits on the Senate Appropriations Committee.

He predicted that there will be CRs and rescission packages for the next four years.

Not a single law exists to legislate a man’s body. Not one. At the same time, over 1,000 laws across the US include restrictions for women and gender-expansive people.

Last year, the FTC banned two Big Oil executives from serving on the boards of oil giants Exxon and Chevron after it found they colluded to fix gas prices.

Trump’s FTC just overturned that ban.

His regime is rubber-stamping corporate corruption.
