Congresswoman McBride // House.gov Erin In The Morning is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a subscriber. Yesterday, Congresswoman Nancy Mace, one of the most prominent anti-trans voices in Congress, ran for the Republican nomination for governor of South Carolina—and finished in fifth place. Mace staked her political career on anti-trans activism, pushing amendment after amendment targeting transgender people during her tenure and most infamously championing the ban on Congresswoman Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender member of Congress, from using women’s restrooms in the Capitol. Now, in what trans communities online were quick to note as a familiar number—anti-trans activist and swimmer Riley Gaines also famously tied for fifth place with Lia Thomas—Mace’s political career is effectively over. She gave up her congressional seat to run for governor and cannot return. As a result, at the Equality PAC’s National Pride Gala last night, McBride took the stage as the results rolled in, referred to Mace as “Congress’s top bathroom sheriff,” noted that she was in “a respectful fifth place,” and wishing Mace a “Happy Pride.” “Today is a big day because today is the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary,” started McBride, continuing, "And for those of you who aren’t aware, my colleague—and Congress’s top bathroom sheriff—Nancy Mace, is on the ballot. And while not all of the votes have been counted yet, she is in a respectful fifth place. I don’t like punching down, and I believe in the politics of grace. So all I will say is: Happy Pride, Nancy,” to which she received a standing ovation. See the video here, curtesy of Advocate reporter Christopher Wiggins: The loss is significant. Mace was not merely anti-trans—she made targeting transgender people the defining project of her congressional career. She championed the ban on McBride and all transgender people from using restrooms in the Capitol, then escalated with a sweeping federal bathroom ban bill that would have applied to every federal building in the country, including major airports like Dulles and Reagan—that bill did not pass. She called trans protesters a slur while wandering the halls of the Senate with a bullhorn, having confused which building the protesters were in. She and Lauren Boebert confronted a woman in a Capitol bathroom they suspected was transgender—she was cisgender. Her entire webpage is filled with anti-trans activism and bills targeting transgender people. Now, her political career is over—at least for now. Mace made a calculated gambit to trade her congressional seat for the governor’s mansion, declining to file for reelection in SC-01. But despite spending two years remolding herself into one of Trump’s most visible culture warriors, Trump endorsed Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette instead. Without his backing, Mace finished fifth with 12%, not winning a single county in the state—including Charleston, which is her home county. She cannot return to her House seat: the filing deadline has passed. When her term ends in January 2027, Nancy Mace will hold no office. The woman who gave up a safe House seat to chase a promotion on the strength of an anti-trans brand she invented in 2024 will leave Washington with nothing to show for it. It is notable that the winners of the Republican primary are not much better on transgender issues—and one may be worse. Alan Wilson, who finished second and will advance to a June 23 runoff against Trump-backed Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, was a leading state official in the landmark Supreme Court case in support of Tennessee’s gender-affirming care ban in United States v. Skrmetti, calling the ruling “a win for sanity and for the safety of our kids.” He also told the city of Columbia to overturn its conversion therapy ban. Evette, for her part, celebrated the Skrmetti decision as well, writing “Amen! Protecting our kids and America’s future generations is a non-negotiable.” Neither candidate, however, made anti-trans activism the theatrical centerpiece of their campaign the way Mace did. Mace built her entire political identity around targeting transgender people, gave up a safe congressional seat to ride that brand to the governor’s mansion, and it got her fifth place. As for McBride, she and countless transgender people have endured two years of Nancy Mace’s cruelty. Now, at least, trans staffers, journalists, and the nation’s first transgender congresswoman will no longer have to see Mace in the halls of the Capitol after her term ends in January 2027. And if Democrats retake the House in November, the bathroom restrictions Mace forced into place—her sole lasting act of spite—will likely be among the first things to go.

Goosebumps every time. While it’s less colorful than others of the time, such as Тир, it’s very to-the-point and well done. I recommend watching with the sound on, preferably with headphones.

It can be rough, but when a good one shows up it’s really amazing. Men can be so interesting and kind and sweet. Luckily they aren’t generally the ones to be offended by women choosing how they want to present :)

So soup is both a type of soup and a category of food, that category being soup. Chowder is a soup but not all soup is chowder, some soup is just soup, or stew
So I’m in bath and notice that prior to HRT, when laying sideways, my hips would fully be under water. But now they don’t. I started it only 1 year and 2 mo ago (hips probably sadly fused already since I’m 28). And now part of hip is above water… Yay! But also, dangit. The bath’s filled to the brim and I love being fully submerged from neck down :(

Possibly propaganda. The headline and article claims this as a fact, even though the source of the information is mostly Iran’s government. Actual wording should be “Iran says US destroys Iran reservoirs…”.
“Cuba has been able – precisely because of the kind of system of government we have – to prevent collapse.” Johana Tablada, deputy chief of mission at the Cuban Embassy in Mexico City, explains why Washington’s tightening sanctions regime against Havana won’t succeed in bringing down the island nation. “It reveals a tremendous ignorance of our history.” Watch full episodes of BT Live, join as a member at the link in our bio.

Pretty good. Although not very anarchist to go about banning people from drinking alcohol
Linked is the laptop I bought today off amazon. It’s got pretty good reviews and it’s a solid upgrade from this ddr3 mechanical hdd msi I’ve been using since 2013. What spurred on the purchase is that I got a bsod a couple weeks back, explorer keeps crashing, and the drive for the last 3 days has been running at 100% nonstop. I do plan on either doing something with linux mint or perhaps downgrading to windows 10 (since I have an actual copy of it at home). Hope this works out! I really, really, needed an upgrade badly.

18m ago NYT - Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said they carried out two waves of attacks early Thursday targeting 18 important targets belonging to U.S. forces at Ali Al-Salem and Ahmad Al-Jaber air bases in Kuwait and Sheikh Isa Air Base in Bahrain, according to IRNA, Iran’s official state news agency. The Guards said the strikes were carried out in response to American attacks on I.R.G.C. service units, coastal posts, police command sites and the Bandar Abbas airport area. They claimed the strikes had “hit and destroyed” the targets. The claim could not be independently verified, and there was no immediate confirmation from U.S., Kuwaiti or Bahraini officials.
The general secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello, reported that the party is making progress in organizing its new structure at the commune level throughout the country. In his report on Monday, June 8, he spoke about the assemblies that have been held in all the communes of the country in order to build this new structure. However, he added that the assemblies will be paused temporarily so that the communes can focus on the upcoming National Popular Consultation on July 12, with the aim of ensuring it is a resounding success. Second phase of the National Pilgrimage Against Sanctions continues Cabello highlighted that the second phase of the National Pilgrimage Against Sanctions continues, with the party speaking to and listening to the people throughout the country. “We are going through all the states,” he said during the PSUV press conference. He underscored that in this second phase of the pilgrimage, the objective is to listen to the productive sectors of the country by visiting four towns in each state. “Then we will continue with the third phase, and we will be visiting all the towns and villages of Venezuela.” Venezuela Schedules 2nd National Popular Consultation for July 12 “The party has instructions to dedicate ourselves to the Consultation. The pilgrimage will continue until June 17, according to the schedule, but after that we are going to restart—as part of the pilgrimage—the visits to neighborhoods and communes, to talk with the people of the party,” Cabello said. He stated that these actions are part of the work to strengthen the grassroots and commune-level structures of the PSUV throughout Venezuela. He emphasized that the organization always keeps all its “machinery well-oiled, so that the structure is always up to date, without any kind of inconvenience.” (Diario VEA) Translation: Orinoco Tribune OT/SC/SH From Orinoco Tribune via This RSS Feed.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/48568140 Duration - 0:55 In recent days, the Cuban United Nations Association (ACNU) warned of the humanitarian consequences of a possible U.S. military attack. ACNU President Norma Goicochea said that “the U.S. government knows…Cuba is not an extraordinary threat” to the United States or any other country. She also warned that a military intervention would have devastating consequences for civilians, including children, women and the elderly. “Cubans have the right to be happy. We have the right to live in peace. Ultimately, we have the right to live.”

The Dutch government wants to ban “kidfluencers,” children under the age of 16 who make commercial content for social media, such as unboxing videos and videos by family vloggers. Children being systematically used as a revenue model is effectively child labor and must be treated as such, Minister Thierry Aartsen of Work & Participation said in a letter to parliament, RTL Nieuws reports.
Our local United Church of Christ is very liberal, at least on social matters - so much so that one of our Unitarian Universalist communities was sharing their space for a while and everyone got on great it seems.

I actually like the assurance of immutability. The main downside is that there’s just less documentation on how to do things, since it’s a very non-standard configuration for a distro. It’s also annoying having to reboot every time I layer a new package into the system image, but I try to avoid that as much as possible and haven’t had to do it recently. Adjusting to Flatpaks has also presented some challenges. In theory, I really like what Flatpaks offer in terms of app-level isolation, but some things are still rough around the edges. I’ve encountered at least one app that didn’t obey the system’s dark mode theming… Also, they still haven’t quite figured out a good way to handle GPU drivers, so you can run into compatibility issues between the usage driver in the runtime and the kernel driver in the system image. In my case, I’ve just had to update and restart the application when this happens, but it might cause problems if you try to roll back the OS image after already updating all your runtimes (resulting in a newer userspace driver trying to talk to an outdated kernel driver).
