No flashy graphic here. We talk about Trump as a bully or an autocrat, and there are playbooks for that. He’s also like a domestic abuser—it’s your fault I hit you. The response to that is leaving and getting a restraining order. How do you do that for the President of the United States?

I’m thinking this isn’t a coincidence: I was listening to #sistersinlaw in the car today. I turned the motor off briefly. When I turned the car back on, I was suddenly hearing the Joe Rogan Experience. WTF—they’ve come for our podcasts?

With New Jersey having some of the few statewide elections this year, I’m psyched my friend Andrew has a solid chance to flip one of our assembly seats. He’s the total package.

President Biden should order the National Archivist to publish and certify the Equal Rights Amendment. I doubt it'll hold up in the courts, and I don't care. Make it a problem for the GOP. Force them to explain why women aren't equal in our Constitution. What is there to lose?

Okay, friends—now that Joe Biden is a bit unleashed, what ELSE should he do before noon on January 20?

@jillwine-banks.bsky.social wants him to send the Equal Rights Amendment to the National Archivist, and I’m all in that.

Let’s make a list—and get it to him.

A related issue on affordability is zoning laws written to keep people out, not let them in. I sit on my local zoning board and rail about it. We could make it all so much easier—if only we wanted to.
I think this is a key point. It shouldn’t take forever to get construction permits and approvals. Like Kamala Harris said in a speech, it only took one year to build the Empire State Building. It can take longer in dallas doe the most basic building or home

New Jersey is my adopted home. I love that we punch above our weight.

I also love that Helmy will step down early to give the amazing Andy Kim a leg up on seniority.
The brief but busy reign of Sen. George Helmy is coming to an end
He was named to fill the seat opened by Sen. Bob Menendez after his conviction, but it's almost time to go.

A bit of good news. This doesn’t mean the next nominee won’t be equally as appalling.
