Pretty 👀 moment in the very bitter Rhode Island gubernatorial debate last week between Dan McKee, the unpopular incumbent, and Helena Foulkes, who is probably going to beat him in the Dem primary next month: Foulkes: "I'm certainly not disparaging the state of Rhode Island, I'm disparaging its governor." McKee: "I am the state of Rhode Island."

Interesting data from Gallup on the way public opinion of same sex marriage and the morality of homosexuality have evolved over the past 20 years. In the 2000s and early 2010s, acceptance of the morality of being gay outstripped support for marriage. Then, they converged and moved in tandem under Trump 1. Now, marriage support outstrips the morality numbers

Notable that, after the debate, the White House's top spokesperson mocked and dismissed the idea Biden would have received a neurological scan - which is the exact kind of thing you would probably do if your wife thinks you had a stroke

Pretty incredible to hear Mamdani denounce the literal core of so many people's vendetta against Abundance: "What's been frustrating is that even the very language of this conversation — language around bureaucracy, inefficiency, waste, even quality of life — we've allowed this language to be seen as if it is of a right-wing concern, when in fact this should be the most paramount left-wing concern."

Angie Craig, one of Congress's openly gay members, votes for Speaker by wishing a "happy anniversary to my wife." Soon-to-be Speaker Mike Johnson will arguably be the most vocally anti-LGBTQ Speaker in modern history, including allying with pro-conversion therapy leaders.

Re: what could be done differently, I always go back to this question from the 2019 "CNN Equality Town Hall." Elizabeth Warren is asked if she ever previously opposed same sex marriage. And she answers that she never did! Which is objectively insane! She's in her late 70s and was born in Oklahoma in the 1940s, of course she's changed her mind. Democratic politicians having a dash of humility and not wrapping themselves in moral and intellectual superiority might be a good start

Fun moment during Janet Mills' State of the State address: she announces her support for a classroom cell phone ban, calling phones "disruptive." The camera promptly pans to a state legislator playing on her phone during the speech.
