Twin Cities based actor. 2016 elections activated me on Twitter. Went there to listen to/amplify the heart of the Democratic Party, Black Women. Guess this is the next evolution. (He/Him/His) www.EricLeeActs.com

I grew up in the Rio Grande Valley watching every day how hard Texans work to make lives better for their families. It’s time we had a governor who works just as hard as you do for your family.

Sen. Blumenthal has written a letter to Kristi Noem about her denial that Corey Lewandowski has a role in approving contracts at DHS.

"I demand that you amend your testimony" and "provide the basis for your apparent false statement on the record."

Why are so many people acting like any of this is normal?

2 hours of voting ballots are being held and probably won’t be counted.

People literally had their right to cast their vote taken away and alleged democrats are taking victory laps because Black Voters were disenfranchised?

There was also the night we were gassing up and some kids were sure, since they had played nearby, that we actually had Def Leppard on our bus. And they refused to believe that we didn’tπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

The entire thing was unreal. I got the job waiting in line for the premiere of The Phantom Menace. I once accidentally blocked VP Al Gore’s motorcade at a fundraiser in the middle of nowhere. I was on The Daily Show. Bonnie Raitt spotted us in a park and introduced herself and invited us to her show

My first job out of college, for 6 months, I lived on a bus, dressed up as Uncle Sam, and did shows talking about how excess money in the US defense budget could be used on education and children’s health care for Ben Cohen from Ben & Jerry’s.

People can say it’s utopian or dreamy but it’s a fact that you have to believe new things are possible, fundamentally, in order to make them real. You have to make the choice to believe that more than this is possible & not be resigned to this being the way things have to be because it’s not at all.

CNN Reports: Remote work risks wiping $800 billion from the
value of office buildings in major cities
worldwide by 2030 as the post-pandemic trend
pushes up office vacancy rates and drives down
rents, according to a new report.

Someone on reddit replies:

This idea that wealthy land owners aren't allowed to
lose money ever and that somehow regular people
Need to make this their problem and bend over
backwards to secure these profit margins for them
is old fashioned and tired.

Your property valuations aren't my problem. Hope
you get ruined actually.

I think more people (working people, and voters) should stop and consider this. And realize that they have the power to end this ridiculous imbalance.

Randall on Mississippi: "One of the perpetrators of that fraud? Former NFL quarterback Brett Favre, who received $1.1m from the govt for speeches he never made. Congressional Republicans' response was to invite Favre to testify about how we should strengthen oversight of federal welfare programs."

okay not the way I want it to be, but far from the "oh just die, he's terrible but up by 400% so there's no hope to stop him" narrative people have been pushing, 3 months lets turn this shit around and burry a Nazi.

Jasmine Crockett has been and will continue to be a strong and important voice in our party. She was in my freshman class and became an immediate leader. Her work on behalf of the American people and Texas is just getting stated.

Guess we’ll get a test case here. I’d guess the religious Center-Right is an even harder pull than the β€œprotect our democratic institutions” Center-Right, but what do I know?

I'm supposed to believe some of your all care about GAZA, AIPAC, blah, blah, blah when you haven't figured out in 400 years how to treat Black people equitably and fairly in THIS country? What happened in Dallas County last night was disgusting, but it's what you have been doing for 400 years.

I think it remains worth saying that knowledge, expertise, and experience still mean something to Democrats (and will continue to, if I have anything to say about it). While the entire federal apparatus is being purged of all of those things by Republicans.

Objection: What Happened in Dallas County Was Not a Glitch What happened in Dallas County tonight should scare the hell out of you.

What just happened in Dallas County is one of the most blatant voter suppression operations I've ever seenβ€”and it happened in a *primary*.

In March. Imagine November.

I broke it down here:

I just viewed the Epstein files. A few things are clear:

1. Trump’s name is all over them.
2. The DOJ is breaking the law and denying the victims justice.
3. A single 3-hour viewing was not enough time. I will be back.

If you have questions, let me know in the comments.

It’s almost as if everyone in this administration is completely out of their depths and is wholly unqualified for the positions they occupy.
