Tell every person you know that the GOP wants to ban porn. Let them imagine a hellscape where they both have no human rights and no legal sources of weird smut to drown their sorrows in

Yes, I absolutely do think over half the country cares about having their basic human rights taken away by a bunch of authoritarian freaks. For Christ’s sake, Project 2025 calls for banning PORN. We can get voters mad about this.

Biden trails Trump by just 2 points across key states, a Bloomberg News/Morning Consult shows, even as three in 10 Democrats say he should leave the race trib.al/GlWZVox

“3 in 10” means 7 in 10 either are fine with him staying or don’t care either way. That’s the majority. Always report majorities. This is a democracy. Majority rules.

I do think so, on the basis of abortion support, which is pretty much in the 55-60% range when actually measured by votes. 2 in 3 New Yorkers wanted congestion pricing. Majorities favor higher taxes on the wealthy. If you don’t see progressive majorities, it’s because they’re being suppressed.
Do you think over half the country actually cares about Project 2025? Do you think over half the country would really care about any issue that doesn't affect them

When you find common ground with people with whom you agree some of the time but not all of the time, you can prevent people with whom you agree none of the time from taking power. The left and the center have far more in common than either wants to admit.
Breaking news: The first projections after polls closed in France’s legislative election put a leftist alliance in the lead, as the populist, anti-immigration far right falls behind and performs far below expectations.
France election live updates: Left-wing bloc leads in results projectionswww.washingtonpost.com The populist, anti-immigration National Rally party had been hoping to install France’s first far-right government since World War II, with 28-year-old Jordan Bardella as prime minister.

Marine Le Pen and everyone else would be way happier if she just stopped being fashy and instead was content to live with her childhood best friend “roommate” with whom she owns many cats and continues to release statements about how she is happy men are not part of her life anymore.
Here's some fashy tears for your Sunday.

I do think we should keep hitting the GOP hard on “they want to take your freedom away, because they hate America.”

In Montana, we saw billboards about how Republicans are selling off public lands and limiting access by hunters. Seemed like decent messaging.

The billboard designers perfectly imitated the usual aesthetic sensibilities of wacko anti-abortion signage, and I need to stop and get a photo of this thing (can’t find one online yet).

As long as we keep our eyes on the prize, I'm fairly confident that everything else will sort itself in due time
Drove into New Hampshire today, and immediately saw a “Democrats Will Protect Your Reproductive Rights” billboard with an American flag and a bald eagle on it, from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC). Excellent work. More of that please.
