if the democratic party starts stepping away trans people they might as well sign this country away to the far right forever

I get that everyone thinks it's a funny little joke when Trump says nonsense about "trangender for everybody" (because really, wtf does that even mean?), but I gotta say that as a trans person, I find it absolutely fucking insane that he's constantly obsessing over trans people existing. It sucks.

Trump: "If we didn't win this election. If we had these people that were running that were ruining our country, destroying our country with their open borders and men playing in women's sports and transgender from everybody and windmills all over the place ... I'm not sure we'd even have a country."

Overnight, Trump and Republicans in Congress shut down the federal government.

They shut it down because they’re determined to strip healthcare from millions of Americans, to enrich the billionaires they serve, to continue the assault on our rights.

We must fight back.

Adams was corrupt, and cut a notably corrupt deal this year with the corrupt Trump administration (over which honorable New York prosecutors resigned). But sure, the House Democratic leader--who, I dunno, might want to be opposed to the corruption of the Trump administration?--should praise him.

Andrew Solender @andrewsolender.bsky.social · 10d

NEW: Jeffries praises Eric Adams in a statement, saying he has "served courageously and authentically for decades" and that "meaningful progress has been made" during his mayoralty.

Says he will "publicly weigh in" on the mayoral race "well before the start of early voting.”

Trump and his billionaire donors might be able to determine Adams and Cuomo’s actions. But they won't decide this election.

In just over 5 weeks, we'll turn the page on the politics of big money and small ideas — and deliver a government every New Yorker can be proud of.

The Break the Bonds campaign presented the results of their survey to the entire commission.

This report shows how the mayor, comptroller, and commissioners are hiding that they have control over these risky investments in genocide while the county suffers a steep shortfall.

The county charter is clear: we can use these funds to invest in Miami-Dade County.

The commissioners have a moral obligation and the legal ability to act: divest from risky Israeli bonds that fund genocide, invest in the people of Miami-Dade County

No one's fooled. Free Palestine! 🇵🇸

Miami DSA @miamidsa.org · 13d

Across Miami-Dade County, we have serious investment needs to improve our safety and quality of life.

Instead, the mayor and comptroller throw millions into death and destruction in Palestine.

Divest from Israeli bonds, invest in Miami-Dade!

This hearing happened days after the UN concluded that Israel is committing genocide in a report.

Even now the Israeli government attacks all its neighbors, the humanitarian mission of the Global Sumud Flotilla, and continues its genocide in Gaza and attacks on the West Bank.

$25 million in Israeli bonds are coming to maturity in November.

The Break The Bonds campaign is demanding that the comptroller not renew these bonds and invest in our community!
