I think these guys need to have a convo with Gavin Newsom.
Spanberger faced a total retread of the trans panic attacks on Harris, using some of the exact same language. She didn't leave those attacks unanswered. Instead, she turned the race into a referendum on discrimination.
"... by focusing on policies that benefit everyone and standing up very deliberately for the most marginalized groups, you can show that you are strong enough to stand up for everyone."
Andrea Pitzer on how both Mamdani and Spanberger showed Democrats how to fight back against the trans panic.

This is a great thread. What are Democrats doing other than looking weak. Why didn't they make the Shreaker of the House order them all removed, one by one?
Please provide me with 5 examples of effective Dem exercises that have helped stop the insanity of the past 5 weeks. Tshirts, table tennis paddles, & posting bible verses do not count.
I am not trying to be divisive, but we need action. Now, before it’s too late.

The Musk-Trump administration announced a drop in indirect cost rates for NIH grants to universities to 15%. Immediately. What does that mean?
Consider Ohio State, home of the National Football Champion Buckeyes.
OSU got $252M in NIH grants last year. The immediate cut is $68M. A lot ! 1/3

Elon Musk mimicked a salute associated with a man who carried out one of the worst genocides in world history. Here’s why I will probably give him an award later this year anyway.

A great examination of the current sane-washing of Trump by the moderate Dems
Oh look, another Democratic elected official going all in on normalizing Trump and preemptively accommodating his regime.
It is incredibly deflating that the defense of basic rights and democratic self-government depends so much on people who have nothing but compliance and acquiescence to offer.

Elon Musk is a good example of how terrible people become increasingly radicalized into the far right simply because the far right is a community that accepts cruel, terrible people.
It's tempting to say Elon is going "mask off", but I'd wager Elon didn't know who Tommy Robinson was 5 years ago. 1/
