“The Democrats didn’t do enough on Gaza, so I withheld my vote to make a statement.”

“Well, Trump won and now he’s gonna destroy Gaza.”

“Yep. We’re paying the price for the Democrats’ incompetence.”

“‘We?’ The Gazans are paying the price, not us”

Pause.

“I needed to make a statement.”

It is pointless to waste energy and resources highlighting the absurd and hateful actions of this administration that WE KNOW IT IS PURSUING.

Certainly be aware but use that to plan ahead at the opportune time to make headway. That’s exactly the right strategy.

Everyone needs to hear this.

This is not about opposing Trump and the GOP agenda.

This is about fighting for the future and what can be.

I just voted against Kristi Noem’s confirmation.

Our immigration system is in desperate need of reform — but it won’t be fixed by organized acts of cruelty.

We need a DHS Secretary who puts the rule of law and constitution first — not the caprice of the President.

We want to shop locally, and we want to support people with good values—so no maga.

My advice to all of you rad small business owners out there:

Now more than ever, show and tell the world WHY and HOW you are different from all of the big box stores.

Good people want to spend their money in good ways. They just need to know where and how to find the good businesses.

Ted Cruz says that Trump’s threat to take over Greenland is a ‘very serious policy proposal.’
He then says that he responded to the Danish Ambassador to the U.S., who told him ‘Greenland isn’t for sale,’ with, ‘everything is for sale.’
