Not one dime for a tyrant is what Congress could and should do, including it's what Democrats should do when they take one or both chambers.
A black-and-white photograph of students and teacher gathered in front of Pee Dee Rosenwald Colored School in South Carolina, a one-story wooden school building with large multi-pane windows and a chimney, raised slightly on a brick foundation. In front of the building, a large group of Black children and a few adults stand in rows facing the camera. The children wear simple clothing typical of the early 20th century—dresses, overalls, and shirts—and appear to be students posed outside the school. The setting is rural, with trees visible in the background and a dirt ground in the foreground. Between 1912 and 1932, approximately 5,000 such schools were built across the rural South through a partnership between Black communities, the Julius Rosenwald Fund, and local public authorities.

What local white elites could not see—behind the veil of Jim Crow—was what Black educators were actually building. College-trained teachers used accommodationist cover to build leadership networks, organize communities, and cultivate the civic capacity that would later fuel collective action. 4/

Trans rights are human rights.
All people should have the right to compete in sports as themselves.
And continue to abdicate all duty
To assume that more studies in favor of gender affirming getting through peer review indicates some kind of bias shows a lack of understanding of what the peer review process is—as if the goal should be some kind of supposedly journalistic balance as opposed to the publication of good science.

Such a baby and a criminal. He needs to be arrested, at the least impeached. what a cowardly criminal GOP. Crimes vs democracy, crimes vs humanity and then there’s just the criminal code and legal statutes. 😡
On education, Thurmond and Yee also both agree: Let's revisit the school funding formula. Thurmond elaborates in favor of an enrollment-based model instead of the current attendance-based model, which introduces uncertainty to each budget year.
Tony Thurmond introduces himself sounding a lot like Zohran Mamdani: Pledging to build 2 billion housing units by 2030, down payment assistance, single-payer healthcare, universal childcare. "We will do it by taxing billionaires. We can build a better California."
Matt Mahan, mayor of San Jose, comes out swinging in his opening remarks, asking everyone at the debate in joining him in pledging to suspend the gas tax. (Retired congressman Sam Farr, sitting in the front row, shakes his head vigorously no.)
At the gubernatorial debate tonight hosted by Democratic clubs/party orgs from Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Benito counties, described by their leaders as an historic first for this kind of tri-county partnership.
