I support organizations like American Promise, ACLU, Common Cause, Mass Ranked Choice Voting, and NPV, to protect voting rights, end gerrymandering, and limit the influence of dark money in our democracy. "Voting is a type of prayer..."

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

GOP Speaker Mike Johnson just sent the House home for the year without passing a ban on stock trading.
A ban on members of Congress cashing in on insider information has bipartisan support and is long overdue.
Let's get this done.

Asked this question in March. Thought this was again relevant..
Let’s see if AI agrees:
Prompt:
Based on recent history, speculate that if republicans control both houses of congress, and the presidency, and there was a shutdown, who is likely to be blamed, republicans or democrats?

Trump’s inaugural committee raked in $239 million — with billionaires and big corporations writing huge checks to cozy up to him ahead of his return to the White House.
If this isn’t a sign that money has way too much influence in our politics, then we don’t know what is!

"The core of the document is saying the king is a tyrant. The argument of the Declaration is that the king was depriving the colonists of their rights. Some of those rights perhaps haven’t resonated w/Americans before now, like depriving them of trials or making them have trials far away from home."
