Someone's got to fix this mess, and posting about it on social media is only half the battle. Friend to democracy, liberals and progressives, disquieting for Fascists and Nazis. Sarcastic/Sardonic and generally quippy Jew. Same name over on Threads.

I'm looking to start a podcast with a couple of my friends. The working title is "A Democrat's Guide to Punching Back." It'll act as part analysis-part assistance to knowing what you as an individual can do to help push back in the coming years and ensure Democrats win consistently and big.
Update! This is actually in progress now! We've begun outlining the talking points for a few episodes and have someone who can help us with the technical side of things.

Until the end of the government shutdown, our campaign will be donating $2,500 a month to a food pantry in the Ninth District.

At this point, it’s utterly bonkers that any Democrat would trust any Republican to negotiate in good faith.

Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."

The American people need protection from those who seek to exploit the workers for every last penny.
Some decry this view as "socialism."

So at the beginning of Nov Congress would have been paid, unless they specifically had their pay check held.
I would argue they should donate it because they haven’t worked.
Maybe a good question for reporters to catalog?

Ask him why so many air traffic controllers are retiring at once. Ask him if it has anything to do with Reagan firing 11K union strikers in 1981 and having to replace them all at once. Ask him how the mass firings this year will impact us the same way 40 years from now. Ask him, Jake.

Ultimately, American businesses and American consumers pay the tariffs.

Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have “the worst health care” of any major country.
Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.
The solution: Medicare for All.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune is dangling another carrot for Democrats, but Dems are balking. Stiffened by their party’s big election wins Tuesday, Democrats want to force Trump and fellow Republicans to finally engage on their central demand—an extension of expiring health insurance subsidies.
Hopes for shutdown resolution fade after Democrats balk at GOP offer
Stiffened by their party’s big election wins Tuesday, they are expected to block another attempt to reopen the government Friday.
