It's devastating that the 8 gave up what little leverage dems had. Still, I'm incredibly grateful that neither of you were on that list. Thank you for not caving in to MAGA. 🩵🪷✌🏼

Thank you for your fighting spirit! We need to see that. 😕

I'm very much looking forward to watching Lina Khan hold power to account in NYC. I think she understands what most people have yet to grasp - the real power struggle is between large corporations (and the ultra wealthy people who run them) and the average citizen.

Listen carefully to this podcast. I believe that any politician who is willing to work toward that goal of ending people's suffering has their values in the right place and is worthy of your vote.

It'll require clear and consistent, truthful, simple, flood-the-zone communication, no matter what the topic is. Don't just say it once, dems. Say it multiple times in a variety of contexts, then post it (and clips) to every social media platform.

This is what I love - the ability to think carefully, collect data, form an opinion, then reassess and refine it if and when more information comes to light.

Polar opposite from MAGA doubling down on lies and bullying people they don't agree with.

So many South Park Bondis.

Markwayne, what's that on your nose? Kinda looks like, you know, Bondi in South Park.

The headline looks optimistic, but the text says otherwise.

Let's see, 30 years of renting at $2000/month = $720,000 to the apartment building owners, who are likely the same people...can't win. 😕

Great! So we don't have to pay billions in taxes anymore, we can just keep our hard earned dollars?

I know. 😶‍🌫️😮‍💨

People complain about old guard dems not stepping up, but there are some who still shine even in the darkest hours.

And SDPD says it's legal to expend their resources to protect both citizens and ICE. Mayor Gloria weighs in at the end, but I don't know whether he's taken any action to change this situation so people get due process. This video is from 4 months ago.
