No lists please, no starter packs. No DMs.
Caregiver--so, inconsistent poster and replier. Sorry!
I have receipts. I repost a lot of Elected Democrats.
Dem bashers: PLEASE don’t follow me.
YES ON 50!

Here's what I was taught:
Always vote to reduce harm.
Especially to those who don't have your advantages.
Don't know why this is so hard for some people.
And why they are so proud of opting *not* to do that.

Meanwhile, with all that is happening, the SF Chronicle ramps up their front page coverage of language used by Gavin Newsom.

Still have to watch that ep. Fell behind w/ my appointments.😂 The CA Dems did great work. I have friends in some of these groups who helped GOTV. The DNC helped a lot too. Chair Martin’s been doing good work building on Chair Harrison’s successes. I’m grateful Ken, Malcolm, & Shasti were helping NJ.

CA where negative news coverage has fixated for months? Where the last Democratic nominee is from? Where volunteers & an all-out media blitz from the Governor to Congressional Democrats all over the country played a role in actual GOTV? I’m supposed to credit an org that has weekend get-togethers?

You want me to give them credit for GA when a Jewish Senator up for reelection in 2026 played a role in their effective new state party chair getting picked? A state where a Senator winning happens with less than 30% of white voters but a Gubernatorial candidate getting blown out happens under 25%?

I heard Gavin Newsom recently on The All the Smoke podcast with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson. He has the ability to connect in a way that Obama and Clinton did. He’s still not my top choice though which remains Kamala. If it’s not her I think it has to be him.

I don’t care about the performative hangouts that were “so important” that NJ (my state too) & VA white voters that loved all that fluff still didn’t actually vote for the Democrats. I don’t respect any org blasting antisemitic nonsense when that mayor didn’t even win Jewish voters as a Dem nominee.

At this point, the “very serious reporters” in the DC press corps are basically passing notes to each other filled with inside jokes, cynical takes & snark & then publishing them as news. Middle schoolers choose their words with more sophistication and responsibility.
the nuzzi coverage is a real insight into the utter perversion of the press corps

And then in 2024 we all found out "Vote like Black women" didn't actually MEAN "Vote FOR a Black woman."

I am so over these farmers.
Q: What is your message to the White House on all this?
Kansas farmer: Listen to farmers and ranchers. Don't just flippantly comment on beef and soybeans. Take some real thought into what your plans are. Tariffs are tools, not toys, so we need to use them responsibly.

Of course. The rich always benefit when republicans run corruption schemes.
Recent changes to Indiana’s property tax system will likely cut bills for most Hoosier homeowners. But owners of pricey houses are expected to get bigger breaks, while those with low-valued dwellings may pay more. @indianacapitalchronicle.com

I would be shocked if many of the new ICE agents are not child abusers.
“Homeland security agents investigating sexual crimes against children, for instance, have been redeployed to the immigrant crackdown for weeks at a time, hampering their pursuit of child predators.”

Image in thread. Nuzzi is disgusting.
Not that it matters because what remains is bad enough, but there was a Nuzzi tweet at one point that had Obama photo edited with lipstick on that was the reason I went looking for new representation (bc I didn't want to be on the same client list as that)--but it seems to be scrubbed.

So tired of these takes.
Especially from white people, who as a whole keep voting GOP.
The Democrats, in the MINORITY, held out longer than any prior shutdown.
It is now SOLELY on the GOP and everyone is aware of ACA credit and SNAP/Medicaid cuts.
My DIL is finally getting paid. She is relieved.

Ppl need to understand what's happening here.
The GOP response to the shutdown was: You're gonna cave, or we're going to hurt vulnerable people by shutting off SNAP. The Dems, unwilling to let that happen, caved.
Having watched that, the GOP is now saying: "Give us what we want on abortion or ..."
