Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: It's a bad deal.

Everyday life - making it better and more affordable - must always be our bottom line. 

For months, Iโ€™ve been hearing from people bracing for their health insurance bills to skyrocket - so much that some will lose coverage altogether. Some say they simply haven't even opened their letter yet, dreading the bad news.

Any deal that fails to address this directly is a bad deal.

For millions of Americans, today will bring the chance to be heard.

If there's an election where you live, then you get to send a message on the policies and leadership you believe in - and begin changing the trajectory of this country.

When we were deployed, some Afghans risked their lives to help us. Now Trump wants to send them out to be killed by the Taliban.

Itโ€™s a disgrace, a betrayal, and a decision that endangers future US troops.

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social Iโ€™m curious if Iโ€™m in the minority thinking we will not have midterm elections? I see this administration enacting martial law to cancel midterms. Are Democrats preparing for this? If not that then I see this administrations cronies confiscating ballots in blue states.

I heard the news that Jimmy Kimmel will go back on the air.

Regular people spoke out and made that happen.

Pete was right. People are much more powerful than people in power want them to believe.

If we are to deprive political violence of its power, we must reject anyone who commits or promotes it - and also reject any move to exploit it.

Horrific to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot today in Utah. Political violence must be always and totally rejected. Praying for him and all who may have been injured or impacted.

What RFK Jr. Is Taking Away From You The problem isnโ€™t just that heโ€™s a quack - itโ€™s that heโ€™s a quack with power over your health, and heโ€™s using that power to hurt you.

Buttigieg Blasts Trump Nixing Airlines Compensating Americans for Flight Disruptions Trump withdrew a Biden rule that forced airlines to pay compensation plus free meals and lodging if some flights were delayed or canceled.

"'The DOT's agenda reads like it was copy-pasted directly from Airlines for America, the lobbying arm of the largest carriers,' said William McGee, a senior fellow for aviation at the American Economic Liberties Project."

Here's something interesting:

Men give Trump a +7% net approval rating in this poll.

But in the same poll, men choose Buttigieg over Vance by a margin of +4%.

So at least in this poll, Buttigieg's strength against Vance doesn't really depend on Trump being unpopular.
