Hey gang! I wanted to post really quick about a clean up event I'm organizing this Sunday, starting at 9:00 AM. I know a lot of folks running for office just ask for money but I'm taking the reverse approach.

Rain or shine, I'll be at the Hannaford parking lot on Main St. in Wynantskill.

Elise Stefanik and her billionaire donors have had their turn rigging the system.

I’m running for Congress because it’s time #NY21 had a fighter who can’t be bought.

You deserve a living wage, health care, and a fair shot—and together, we can guarantee it.

Saturday’s No King’s Day was a massive success. Thank you @bryanpaz-hernandez.bsky.social for again being a great videographer.

For the record: “us” is who will save us. Us, who band together in solidarity to reject these the lies, the abuse, and the crimes this admin is committing.
If Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, the courts are unlikely to stop him.

We wish there was some institution — businesses, media, law firms, universities, anything — that would save us.

As with so much in this era, it will fall to the people to protect the republic.

Khalil has not been charged with a crime, has not been alleged to have engaged in illegal activity, and has not been alleged to have provided support to a proscribed organization.

What is he guilty of? Speaking out against the interests of this administration. #albany #freemahmoudkhalil

The fact that no one has been sent back in time yet to stop our work on A.I. tells me we didn’t fudge things up too badly.

Props to David, aka @mouseguard.bsky.social , who years ago signed a copy of his books at ComicCon and they are one of my favorite possessions.

I wish it wasn’t hyperbolic or “mincing words,” but this what the fall of #democracy looks like…

Let’s be clear, the #republicans think that the United States should be completely molded in their image. Devoid of science, progress, empathy, facts, and cohabitation with others. Period.

Attention #democrats, Jon Stewart lays it out here plain and simple; the gloves have to come off. This isn’t the way I nor many other Dems want it but when the going gets tough…you get the idea.

And after the dust settles we can return to pleasantries, but right now, we have work to do.
