“Never leave problems for other people to solve.” That’s been a guiding rule in Sam Polan’s life since his childhood. Now, after an impressive military career, Sam Polan announces his candidacy for Illinois’ 9th Congressional District.

Last night, I talked about why I am stepping up to run for Congress.

(HINT: it's because more people like us need to be where the decisions are being made.)

Today, I filed to become a candidate for Congress because the politicians in charge in Washington are only looking out for the wealthy and well connected. Our system is broken and I'm running to help fix it.

Just a little reminder that Trump has been convicted of more felonies than anyone he has deported so far.

@beyer.house.gov when will you have a town hall to explain to us what you are doing to fight back?

Would not have suspected John Fetterman would be so eager to grab the mantle from Joe Manchin.

According to Axios @danbeyer.bsky.social doesn't like it when his constituents call to ask him to do more to stand up to Trump.

Will just put this here:

Scoop: Dems "pissed" at liberal groups MoveOn, Indivisible
"I reject and resent the implication that congressional Democrats are simply standing by passively."

Never have I seen political theory materialize before my eyes more clearly.

The jock/creep theory of fascism. Think the difference between Italians and Germans in the 1940s.

#Chiefs are playing like they know they have to meet Trump if they win.

Here is the thing: if you are in a fight and you are the only one playing by the "rules," you are going to lose.

It's time for the #democrats to learn this lesson.

We, #Democrats, should not be accepting the premise that is being sold by the Republican scam artists.

#USAID supports American farmers by buying their food and supports America's military by buying goodwill.

To oppose USAID is to oppose American farmers and security.

No one hates you more in this world than the job applicant you didn't send a copy and paste rejection email to.

In the #VAAG race Miyares surprises Richmond insiders and announces a reelection bid. Should be an interesting primary for the Dems.

This might be a hot take, so I'd like @jasonkander.bsky.social to weigh in. It really feels to me like time to standardize big league parks.

With Elon coming for govt spending it is a good time to remind people that govt w/sovereign currencies do no operate "like a business" bc they can print their own money. Your taxes don't pay for the fed govt, they take money out of the economy to limit inflation. This is Modern Monetary Theory.

In my experience, whenever you are having a problem, whether big or small, start at the library. They have the most free resources and people willing to help you figure things out.

For me, the Republicans holding the House is the most shocking result. I mean I k kw there was a lot going on with the Repub ticket but the House was such a mess.
November 10, 2024 at 3:54 PM
Here is my election take. 107 days simply isn't enough time to run a successful campaign. Especially when you start in enough extremely unfavorable position due to inflation, an unpopular incumbent you are tied to and a toxic media environment.

My friends and I keep talking about how the stuff you're going to end up doing to help, if you're serious about helping, is not going to look heroic or cool. 99.9% of the work is tiny and boring and all the main characters are gonna have to reckon with that.

Just a reminder to support your local public libraries! Write letters of support. Use the library often & in many different ways. Show up to meetings.

Library staff have been begging for help, advocacy, and action for years. Please show up for libraries.
