Each act, each occasion, is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others will join you in resisting. But that moment never comes.
Why not? Because change happens in small steps.

I’m a 54 year old man who has given up all my vices. I only occasionally drink. I eat a tiny edible to help me sleep. But I am powerless against my urge to buy band T-shirts.

Thank you Senator Booker for leading with action and words. Lots and lots of words.
I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

I’m not even smart and I know this is no way to govern. You can’t just keep throwing spaghetti at a wall and seeing if it sticks when you’re talking about the lives and livelihood of an entire nation. At some point you have to wonder if anybody is actually thinking these choices through. #Tarrifs

A fundamental problem is the Democrats are utterly committed to the fallacy that public opinion polls are politics. This has destroyed their ability to actually do politics. 1/
The Democratic Party has no idea how angry its base is. Lead, right now, or get out of the way.

I came up with a new meditation practice today. I thought I’d share. When you hear an emergency siren (an ambulance, cop, fire truck, whatever), pause and send good thoughts to those whom the first responders are helping and the responders themselves for well being and safety. #metta #gratitude
