I live in a solid blue state with a Dem trifecta.
You’ll never guess why it’s so expensive to live here (Sarcasm)
Things are expensive because social programs, good schools, higher wages, and all the things people claim to love are expensive.
Y’all never talk about that part.

That's absolving him of any accountability, you can't keep saying Democrats would do so much more for ppl if they had more power when you can look at solid Blue States that are hemorrhaging people bc they can't afford to live there. Libs believe a good economy trickles down to a better life for all

I don’t spend a ton of time at the Whipple protest but I appreciate the hell out of those that do.
Standing out in 9 degrees and blowing snow to let them know we won’t look away from what they are doing and we won’t forget the ones they’ve taken away.
That’s a patriot in my book.

Nothing will be able to be close to “normal” until people are arrested, prosecuted, and actually held accountable for their actions
I don’t really want to go back to before. I want the loopholes that have existed since “normal times” closed so it’s harder to accomplish what Republicans have so far

We’re not going suddenly to wake up and discover that all is back to normal. But yesterday offered some promise that a hard-earned awakening could lie ahead.
