For the first time since the Convention, I'm going through my take-home memorabilia.
Tears. Anger. I keep thinking, "I can't believe I thought we'd win."
It was one of the best weeks of my life.

It’s weird how extra costs trickle down to consumers but extra profits don’t. What’s that all about

Just so everybody understands, Booker has been speaking cogently about the issues the entire time and Strom Thurmond famously spent hours reading from the encyclopedia, because segregationists were and are dumbshits
If Sen. Cory Booker makes it to 7:19 p.m. EST, he will break segregationist Dixiecrat Strom Thurmond's record for his 24 hour 18 minute Senate floor speech against the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

A small moment of solace in front of the Basilica in Santa Fe.

The Native saint statue glowed.

Needed that glimmer today.
Time for the Session.

For most folks, democracy is local.

So get out and run for office.

The people are demanding change. Don’t just wonder when that change will happen.

Be that change.
It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

More of this, please.
Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota.

But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

AI summary:
Nonviolent resistance works when it builds broad participation, forces defections, maintains discipline, and uses diverse tactics. It remains the most effective path to major social change.
