🧵 I’ve decided to run against Nancy Pelosi to represent San Francisco in Congress. I know some of you might be surprised that Speaker Emeritus Pelosi is running again, but she is — for her 21st term! We need new leadership in the Democratic Party.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

In about 12 hours the nightmare begins.

Hold your friends and family close. Try to protect your communities and your sanity. All empires fall and madness can’t reign forever. Work toward that brighter day as we walk together through this valley of darkness.

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.

It looks bad now and I'm positive it will get much uglier, but I think a revolt is imminent when these people finally realize that they still aren't getting the world they wanted from the dictator they elected.

And if immigrants start being deported in massive numbers, women lose all of their rights, and whatever else is coming to further disempower the people they blamed for everything going wrong, who will they have left to blame when their lives don't get better?

The Senate and House are red, so they can no longer make Democrats the Boogeyman when the policies they chose make their lives exceedingly difficult. Will they finally realize that the billionaires did this to them and not the neighbors they made into their scapegoats?

When the prices of consumer goods go up next year because of the tariffs, they'll realize what they did. Will they turn on Trump once they become desperate enough? They already showed the world that they were willing to begin an insurrection. Will they do the same to the evil they put into power?

If there's one thing we can take comfort in, it's that these people will get the evil world they voted for. And this time they'll eventually have to face that they were the ones who caused it while they kept pointing their fingers at everyone else.
