OMG, people! Get it the F*** together!!! YOU HAVE TO VOTE IN E-V-E-R-Y DAMN ELECTION!!!What is WRONG with you? 😤
When I talk about how voting is what matters.....here's a prime example.
Nothing has changed. Voting patterns are exactly the same as before.
If you don't show up to the polls, then WTF are you doing?🤦🏽♀️

My theory is that most anti-Dems are whiny men because they are inexperienced with living in a constant state of rage and don’t know how to focus it.

We're debating on the government funding package right now and every single Republican voted against a Democratic amendment to pass a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits.

Okay, I just started watchin "Pluribus" on AppleTV+ (and I mean JUST started, only 20 minutes into it), and I'm immediately reminded of a movie I saw long ago in my youth on TV... A 1968 comedy called "What's So Bad About Feeling Good?"

If Democratic voters (including centrists, liberals, progressives, and even some leftists) had stuck by Democrats in 2010 and 2014, the ACA would be a lot stronger now. If they had shown up for Dems in 2016, we wouldn't be here at all and women would still have reproductive rights. But no.
