The absolute horseshit agenda of the would be next FTC Commissioner, including going after doctors who provide trans care to *adults*.
Punchbowl's @benbrodydc.bsky.social got a copy of FTC Commissioner Andrew Ferguson's pitch to be chair under Trump:

Beautiful, lol
I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

Many things are disgusting about Nancy Mace. But the one I keep coming back to is her pretending to speak for survivors when she punches down on our most vulnerable. That is just abhorrent.

Uncanny prescience
Octavia Butler being a time traveler or seer, will forever be a hill I'm willing to die on, because there's just no way. Parable of The Sower was published in 1993. Look at this date. #BlackBookSky #BookSky

This might be the weirdest one yet?
Naturally when you're looking for a Secretary of Education, the first person who comes to mind is the co-founder of World Wrestling Entertainment. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...
Trump taps transition co-chair Linda McMahon to be education secretary
McMahon led the Small Business Administration from 2017 to 2019. She is the wife of Vince McMahon and the co-founder of World Wrestling Entertainment.

New contender for worst appointment yet
Politico is reporting Trump will name Dr. Ladapo of Florida to a senior spot, likely Surgeon General or Assistant HHS.
This would be a horrifying pick for trans people. He's responsible for Florida's adult trans ban, and works with SEGM/Anti-trans global movement.
He's also an ardent anti-vaxxer.

Funny how the Overton Window never shifts leftward.
We're about a decade in to this weird narrative where apparently centrists will always be driven right by us on the left but are somehow magically never driven left by the far-right.

Both my parents were librarians. Actually my mom still is at 91, at her leftie UCC church library and culling/restocking little free libraries in her neighborhood. Healthy libraries are the health of a society. The Dark Ages began with burning of libraries (by Christians quite different from mom.)
Libraries, providing free information to everyone, are the bedrock of a free society.
And a shoutout to all the librarians out there! Thank you for all you do!!!

I really hate this posture, which amounts to “Trump is a god-king” (from the left) bsky.app/profile/donm...
Getting a lot of replies along the lines of "oh, you rube, you still think the law matters" and it feels strategically foolish to just concede that it doesn't. Contest everything. Expose the hypocrisy.

fascism is stopped when enough people say one of two things:
1) "nah, I'm not doing that"
2) "nah, you're not doing that"
a lot of people want to imagine how they'll say the second thing, but you should *really* start practicing the first one
