James Carville said on his Politicon Podcast recently that when it comes to so-called identity politics that “the baggage you bring may not be worth the votes you have” but interviewers should press him on which identities do and do not matter. A frank discussion would be illuminating,

Find out more about how the right is destroying public education--a goal it's had for decades--via @translash.org media and season 4 of "The Anti-Trans Hate Machine" with @imarajones.bsky.social. The latest and final episode deals with the plan--use vouchers to destroy public ed. #LGBTQ
The right-wing push for "vouchers"--using taxpayer $ for private schools--comes right out of the right-wing push in the 1950s to fight desegregation. Slightly different branding now ("we don't want them damn woke or gay or trans people near our kids!"), but same argument.

In my reporting on the anti-trans attacks on schools for this season’s #AntiTransHateMachine I stumbled across January 6 insurrectionists who believe that there’s a traitorous conspiracy which uses trans kids, and who want to declare martial law. Vic Mellor is one of them.
In the new season of Anti-Trans Hate Machine, @imarajones.bsky.social traveled to FL to explore the interest that January 6 insurrectionists have in local education races, motivated by anti-trans politics. In June, she sat down with Vic Mellor, a far-right activist who breached the Capitol.
