No, it’s not time for South Carolina Democrats to give up and start voting for Republicans.

I have called my Representative and Senators to demand leadership change. These people are either complicit or incompetent. Change must happen.

We need all new leadership for Democrats in DC. Replace every single one of them.

We’ve been here all along. It’s time to replace our current leadership with those who will represent us and not have to do the bidding of corporate owners.

This is true of leaders in business and in government. (Only a few people I’ve worked for have been good leaders.) It’s time for one last career change.

It fascinates me that giving to charities is considered noble and praiseworthy, but creating a society that doesn't require charity is considered socialist and bad.

Went to the No Kings protest in Hillsboro today β€” the largest such protest yet in a fairly conservative but ethically diverse small town 12 miles west of Portland. It was as cheerful a protest as one could imagine. I also got my library card and deposited my special election ballot.

The Mormon Lord, Jesus Christ, doesn’t drink coffee, so he probably ordered hot chocolate.
