Hi. There’s a big jump between “full access” and “mensch”. Can I make a one-time gift or sponsor a gift subscription without specifying a recipient? I couldn’t find a way to do that.

⬆️⬆️⬆️ THIS! ⬆️⬆️⬆️ Dems need to run in every election in every state. No more “uncontested” elections!! Even in safely Republican districts, Dems MUST be on the ballot to give people alternatives! If they have someone to vote for, they will go to the polls, which increases up-ballot votes!

Given that it seems to be the courts that have had the most power to counteract the instability of this 3-legged stool of government, I agree that precision is helpful.

Like many things these days, I thought we had already taken care of this. Sorry. (From a Boomer who breastfed in public)
