Show up to the caucus. Bring a friend.

Get primary challengers on the ballot so we can get the people who are coasting along out of government.

Caucusing is how we get candidates on the ballot to challenge the feckless among us.

It takes VERY FEW people to shift the caucus.

Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.

Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.

One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

it's important to understand that when the NY Times does this - "asks a question" with no evidence behind it - it's because they want to raise the salience of the question.

They want to imply that it's a reasonable thing to ask.

They want to help the allegation stick against Ms Rachel.
Ms Rachel says The New York Times asked her if she’s funded by Hamas

Trump to air traffic controllers: "For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK"

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

Do you actually know what Disability Justice means, or are you putting together "Disability" & "Justice," 2 words you know the meaning of separately, & assuming its meaning? 👀

If so, PLEASE take just a few moments to educate yourself about the 10 Disability Justice principles from Sins Invalid! 🙏🏽
As a registered social worker for 15 years until my regulatory body failed to call for a ceasefire after witnessing genocide for all of 2024, a writer who is extensively published on equity issues, & a fat brown queer disabled immigrant woman on Turtle Island, we must discuss Disability Justice! 👀

Hearing from more people after this went out.

"We're all pissed. This was a lot of unnecessary stress on people and their families for nothing. And if I win the lottery tonight I absolutely will spend millions to hire people to follow these 8 Dems around for a year and make their lives miserable."
I heard from a bunch of federal employees last night and this morning. They aren't happy.

"I would rather be an actual pawn. At least pawn sacrifices are calculated and achieve something. All this for a fucking meaningless vote."

While I know that our current government is trash about anything queer, I think of all the things to worry about, invalidating marriages is bottom of the list. Marriages are absolutely wild legal contracts and suddenly having to arbitrate roughly a million unwilling annulments would uhh not be good
BREAKING: The Supreme Court DENIES former county clerk Kim Davis's request for the justices to take up her longshot bid to overturn 2015's Obergefell v. Hodges marriage equality decision. No justice even writes about the request.
