Living in Southern California. Too old for social media but the times require it. The oligarchs and ego inflated dictators must be stopped. Plus it’s lovely to stay in touch with friends and like minded people.

Robert Reich A Conversation with Zohran Mamdani

Zohran Mamdani is getting a new generation of young people excited about politics. My own granddaughter is knocking on doors for him in the final stretch of the NYC mayoral race. I was pleased to speak with him ahead of Tuesday's election. https://youtu.be/rqU0DAjg0RA?si=ZYVwyxSyA9xdR4bj

@aoc at the rally for Mamdani Sunday in NYC.

“This city was built by the Irish escaping famine, Italians fleeing fascism, Black Americans fleeing slavery and Jim Crow, Latinos seeking a better life, Native people standing for themselves, Asian Americans coming together…”

So good!! 🔥

The GOP talking point…
Only “old” people showed up at No Kings!

Damn right we showed up!
We show up at the Ballot Box too!
You are the First Administration that has pissed off the Grandpa’s and Grandma’s.
You have no idea what you’ve awakened.

Yes, it is the inevitable swinging of the pendulum. What we don’t know is the timing: when, for how long, etc.

"All we do know, and that to a large extent by direct experience, is that evil labours with vast power and perpetual success – in vain: preparing always only the soil for unexpected good to sprout in. So it is in general, and so it is in our own lives."

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

There's always been a fight over the true story of America. I believe deeply in the story that says we’re all created equal, and that if we can treat each other with decency and respect, all of us will be better off.

I talk about this and more on the final episode of WTF with Marc Maron. Watch now:

It's day 13 of the shutdown. What's Trump doing?
 
Negotiating a budget deal? No.
 
Preventing premiums from doubling? No.
 
Stopping 15 million Americans from losing health care? No.
 
He's meeting the Pres. of Argentina to reward him with a $20 billion bailout.
 
America first?

She made a name for herself, running defense for billionaires. She has no credentials as a reporter. She's a propagandist who's used the fact that she's gay as a shield.
