Usually republicans are trashing the physical accomplishments of trans folks, but even in a mental competition that has no advantages for any gender, they still gripe. It was never about trans people in sports, and it was always about making trans people feel unwelcome anywhere.

I’m a gay white man, I’m arguably the most privileged in my community. I’ve been out since I was 16 and pretty visible ever since. I haven’t felt this level of fear for my safety since I was in the closet. This pride month, please keep your queer friends close. We need it.

A huge shoutout to

for taking part in the

This debate tonight showed me that Republicans have a clear challenge ahead in their messaging against
@AnnieAndrewsMD
. Neither referenced Andrews when asked why they could best beat her, just her party. It’s clear they’re scared about having to oppose a beloved pediatrician.

A man asked me why I wore a rainbow stole for graduation, and I hadn’t thought about a reason until now, but it’s because the younger version of me never would’ve imagined seeing himself be celebrated for being gay, much less to be able to be a leader on campus.

Also this is your OFFICIAL Twitter account as a congressman who represents thousands of South Carolinians expecting you to do better. Not pick fights with a senior in college on social media.
I think you missed the point that CBS intentionally went out of their way to say this was a female achievement. They weren't talking about the highest winnings of any participant, they specifically said this was the highest achievement for a woman. The contestant is not a woman.

Went to the gas station at 3 am randomly for a snack and ended up spending almost 2 hours just listening to 2 women share their lives with me and ask questions about politics. Their stories made us all cry, but we all ended with hugs and hope. People need hope now more than ever.

This Memorial Day I’m thinking of my cousin who served in the Air Force and had severe PTSD from it. He sadly took his life a few years back due to not have adequate mental health resources when he returned. Today we remember the fallen, but we must do better for our veterans.

Unfriendly reminder that Covid is real and not wearing masks on flights results in babies getting sick. My 1 1/2 year nephew tested positive after flying in, and now him and my sister can’t come to graduation after flying halfway across the world.

I’m just so angry. I have friends and family who would have DIED if they had to continue pregnancies. I have peers who have been raped and gotten pregnant. The idea of any of them having to continue a pregnancy they didn’t want, or could survive the duration of, is infuriating.

Me declaring victory with no primary opponent is my personal Iowa Caucus. South Carolina you have shocked the nation.
The Polls have closed and results should be in soon. I am honored to officially be the Democratic Nominee for the SC House District 106. This is about my hometown and the people that make up the community I love. And we’re just getting started on our goal of reaching every voter.

The fact South Carolina and Wyoming are the last two states to enact their own hate crime legislation while each have extensive histories of prominent hate crimes is ironic and depressing.

With the primary tomorrow, I just want to say one thing:
“YARD SIGNS DON’T VOTE, PEOPLE DO”
In areas like Horry where literally every inch of grass next to our highways are covered in signs, it can be easy to get discouraged. Don’t let the signs fool you.

I agree and if someone has a no soliciting/trespassing sign I don’t even bother. I was just irritated this man was trying to kick me out the neighborhood.

Plus the clear divide amongst Republicans in the crowd shows a lot of people are not going to be happy with their eventual nominee. Good thing Dr. Andrews is a candidate everyone can rally around to support and trust.
