Something people are sleeping on: One of the 4 state justices who voted to make abortion illegal in Iowa in late June, David May, is up for retention this fall.
This was a 4-3 decision.

If you think "working class" is white male auto workers who live in the suburbs, and not multiracial Starbucks baristas, Amazon warehouse workers, and Wal-Mart greeters of all genders, you are perpetuating a revanchist racist myth, the reality of which died with Reagan.

A Republican plan to win by suing to keep the Democratic nominee off the ballot is a coup against the American people and should be treated like one.

This is the root of their hatred for trans girls too, I think. Finding out the kid they're grooming was born male upsets their twisted worldview.

One of conservatives top priorities is denying kids the message that they have control over their own bodies and their own sexuality because that makes it harder for pedocons like Trump to get away with raping them

With the Biden age story, there’s a drumbeat, a crusading intensity that NYT achieves by picking at it incrementally from every angle. That sends an alarm to readers. This doesn’t happen with Trump coverage in the same way.

The Republican Project 2025 isn't just a war on workers and women, it's a war on truth and accuracy itself. A rigged census so Trump fascists can cheat in future elections would have larger impacts than just the election cheating

Good reporting on an entirely predictable problem. Fun fact: Airbnb also covers up thousands of sexual assaults every year! Its internal safety team has "cool-down rooms" to take a break from the trauma of what they hear. It's a bad company, a bad industry, and people should just stay in hotels.

Communications tip: don't say "Project 2025" say "Trump's Project 2025." He's trying to run away from it, tie it to his neck like an anchor by making the words "Project 2025" naturally follow the word "Trump" in people's heads.

Among these, I always get stuck on the Senate filibuster. It did not exist in any form while the Framers were alive. The current form, in which a Senator can stop a bill permanently without doing anything, did not exist until the 1970s. But it's treated as sacrosanct.
