@schiff.senate.gov I hope you’re realizing this. Time to get @schumer.senate.gov out!
The Democrats need to have somebody that is ready to go in front of the cameras and explain to the American people what is going on and how the Democrats can fix it. Like I said, every day that passes is another day closer to 2026. The Dems need to present a coherent alternative now! 5/x

This has become an area of academic research, that people often mistake the profound discomfort of visible poverty with risk of violent danger
People "Feel Unsafe" Because Visible Poverty Is Everywhere
Media hysteria around “rising crime” works because it touches on something real: a palpable increase in visible human suffering. What matters is how we alleviate that suffering.

Almost 9 in 10 U.S. voters felt the November election was run well, according to new survey data. That's a jump compared with 2020 — an increase driven exclusively by Republican voters.

Sitting here wondering why @npr.org is using a Trump administrator as an expert on what is or isn’t legal….Why are we propping them up as being any kind of expert on legality?

Slavery was Legal.
Colonialism was Legal.
Jim Crow was Legal.
Apartheid was Legal.
Legality depends on who has power and the kinds of laws they pass to preserve their own privileges and bigoted views. Legality often has nothing to do with justice.
