So I’ve made it official folks: I’ve filed the paperwork to run for Governor of Alabama. It’s time to remind this state of who we are and what we can accomplish together.

Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October.
She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE.
“They’re failing all of us,” his mom said.

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.
It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

People think tyrants rage because they're strong.
But the truth is they only rage when they know the room will absorb it.
Mamdani didn't absorb it.
So Trump didn't rage.
Fear is the oxygen of authoritarianism.
Take it away, and even a strongman starts to sound like a man.

I really can't stress how important it is for progressive and leftists to contend for school, library, water, etc etc boards. Hyper local involvement in our communities where we can actually influence lives.
Following the recent election, leadership will be changing in many districts where conservative values previously dominated school board meetings and community actions.

School boards in PA and NJ are shifting fast—LGBTQ+ leaders are winning, conservatives are losing, and policy battles are heating up.

This. She’s not a Democrat. She doesn’t want to be a democrat, she wants to be a leader of the Republican Party that emerges on the other side of this clown show. She’s a shapeshifting power monger. Let her tear her brethren apart and stay out of it.
Marjorie Taylor Greene is trash. She's always been trash. She spoke at Nick Fuentes's conference and hasn't renounced him. She is a white nationalist.
I'm glad a lot of Democrats want to embrace her and absolve her, but what about the rest of us whom she continues to attack?
