A rocky shore with calm water. A small wave begins its break on a jagged rock at the shoreline. The sky is overcast and low, hanging above the water. In the distance a couple of land masses and a sliver of brightness in yellow tones.

Reaching your breaking point is never easy, but it always motivates change

The same people in DC who got us into this mess are not going to be the ones to get us out of it.

Today I'm announcing my campaign for U.S. Senate.

Because we don't have a minute to wait.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

I am not moved by politicians often, but I am moved by Booker today. I hope more dems callously see how much attention he's commanding today take his lead. I don't care if the reason they do it is craven-- I just want them to fucken fight.

also fuck strom thurmand may he rest in piss

I stumbled onto your feed and I really love your content. This is the kind of stuff I love to follow. Mental health is very important 🙂🙂🙂

Lisa in the comments noticed there’s a rare 6 petalled forget-me-not in my photo. If you find it your brain will release extra dopamine as a result of looking at the image…👇🏼✨

I grow spring flowers on my garden steps as I can see them from my sofa & the sight helps my brain on tough days. The sight of Steve the blackbird visiting the bird café helps too (songthrush tweeting away in the background):

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful.

Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

We deserved some good news!

Republicans reel as Dem over-performances hit a swing state and MAGA country Democrats clinched a landslide victory in Wisconsin and made inroads in two deep-red Florida districts, spelling trouble for Republicans.

“I’m honestly shocked. I thought we had it in the bag,” said Pam Van Handel, chair of the Republican Party of Wisconsin’s Outagamie County. “I thought [Musk] was going to be an asset for this race..."
