Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia—
AOC: Wah wah wah.
We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no.
What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over.
The proposed TV ratings changes over the inclusion of trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming characters in children's TV shows is more nanny state nonsense from FCC Komissar Brendan Carr, akin to Don't Say Gay or Trans laws like in Hungary or Russia.

Arsenal have the chance to retake the lead with a win or draw Saturday against Newcastle. The Gunners could be up as many as 6 points before Man City kick a ball next in PL play, against Everton away on May 4th.

Manchester City temporarily go top of the Premier League table with a 1-0 win over Burnley on goals scored, as both Arsenal and Man City are tied with 70 points and +37 on goal differential [MCI: 66; ARS: 63]. This result consigns the Clarets to the Championship.

These hateful bills are based on the faulty premise of “protecting women”, but in reality, such laws increase harassment.

Sickening from Missouri Republicans in the State House: They passed a combo trans erasure and bathroom bill HB2536 to require state-funded institutions to separate facilities such as dorms, changing rooms, and restrooms based on gender assigned at birth.

Burnley trail Man City 1-nil at the half at Turf Moor. 45+ minutes left to change the fates of the title race and delay the relegation of the Clarets.
As things stand, Man City go joint top of the league, lead on goals scored and Burnley will be relegated. #BURMCI
SCOTUS will hear a case from a group of Colorado Catholic preschools seeking to be permitted to receive taxpayer funding despite prohibiting kids with LGBTQ+ parents.
Watch the radical right-wing judicial activists rule 6-3 in favor of the Catholic schools.

Cry harder, Republicans! Your side started the redistricting mess, and the Democrats were right to fight back.

Rooting for Burnley to hopefully gain at least a point, just so Arsenal can remain top of the Premier League table.

Jesse Watters has used his platforms on both The Five and Jesse Watters Primetime to spew out lewd, perverted, and misogynistic commentary, continuing a pattern dating back to The O’Reilly Factor.

Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) proposes a fascistic anti-American law called the MAMDANI Law to deport and denaturalize those who advocate for “socialism”, “communism”, “Marxism”, or “Islamic fundamentalism.”
This bill is yet another attack on those opposed to Satan 47’s regime.

District Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai delivered a blistering opinion vacating the lawless anti-trans Kennedy Declaration on Gender-Affirming Care that threatened to revoke all federal funding from all hospitals that offered gender-affirming care for transgender youth by HHS Secretary RFK Jr.
Last night, Virginia voters narrowly approved a redistricting referendum that would give the Democrats up to 4 extra seats in the House, countering GOP map rigging schemes elsewhere.
The redistricting wars got kicked off by Donald Trump and his demand to give Texas 5 extra House seats to the GOP.
Marriage equality is slowly being degraded through SCOTUS doctrine on religious freedom so that it's a second class marriage. If the court rules on this as expected, whats to stop a Catholic hospital from turning away the spouse of an LGBTQ person or refusing to treat an LGB person at all?
It's not enough for these schools to discriminate against LGBTQ families, they must also be subsidized by taxpayers while doing so. They feel entitled to be rewarded for discriminating using public funds.
The Supreme Court is taking up a case on whether Catholic schools that refuse to accept the children of gay parents are entitled to taxpayer funding.
I'm sure it will be 6-3 with the answer being yes.

The Catholic vote as a whole is a vital bloc that could decide which party gains Congressional majorities, and Donald Trump’s insults towards Pope Leo XIV are hurting the GOP’s electoral calculus.

Virginians have overwhelmingly voted YES to pass a new statewide redistricting referendum.
The new map will directly counter Trump's desperate gerrymandering of Republican states.
VICTORY! Virginia's highly necessary Congressional redraw referendum map has passed. The map will give the Commonwealth of Virginia up to 4 extra Democratic seats to counter red state map rigging.
Scott Presler is crying, HA HA HA HA HA!!!!
