How Newsom has capitalized on anger with Trump in California ballot fight The strategy has fueled a stark fundraising advantage and polling lead that Democrats hope will help deliver a concrete rebuttal to the presidentโ€™s redistricting agenda.

I'm posting this #GiftArticle mainly because there's a really interesting graphic in it: "Redistricting efforts by initiating party and possible seat pickup." More red states than blue are playing the redistricting gambit. (full disclosure: I voted for Prop 50 in CA.)

It's frankly crazy how the NYTimes is more than willing to label something *supposedly* liberal/left as "feckless" without even naming the right-wing "critic" they're basing that assertion on.

If you're not in Jamaica but would still like to help, please consider donating to @wck.org

We clearly can't rely on Trump to do anything useful, so donating to WCK is one of the best ways we can help

Before I go to bed, unfriendly reminder that boycotting Amazon and other services is just *not feasible* for some people. Income, disability, access to other services, lack of transportation, delivery fees, etc.

It doesn't mean they're "complicit". It means they're a victim of capitalism too.

There is literally not one person who can exist in modern society without using the big tech platforms daily, at least indirectly. That doesnโ€™t mean itโ€™s futile to try to reduce dependency or investment, but I also am not judging anyone harshly for that, least of all those who are most vulnerable.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Portable air filters clean indoor air from smoke, dust, pet dander, viruses, and more. They are cheap & simple to make โ€” Iโ€™ve built several โ€” and nearly silent to run. *There is no downside.* Should be in every workplace, community space, school, daycare, medical facility, & home.

The complete demolition of the East Wing has occurred in days.ย ย 

Hundreds of thousands are without work and pay, millions are threatened to have food assistance cut offโ€”and the President is bulldozing the White House to build a $300 million ballroom for himself.

Americans will not forget.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

A true โ€œlet them eat cakeโ€ juxtaposition as Trump builds a ballroom and refuses to concede to shutdown demands while children and elders starve and smaller rural economies collapse.

This is the reminder that SNAP makes money, up to 160% of every dollar spent, because itโ€™s direct to local economies.
