Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.
Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law
Time to do things that make him react to you.

I grew up in Philly. On my street were electricians, HVAC technicians, nurses, teachers, and business executives. We shared a lot in common & one huge thing: rooting for the Eagles. Good luck to my Philly friends and family this weekend.

Without the Department of Education, class sizes will swell, students with disabilities could lose access to special education, and working class kids will lose access to grants and loans. The attack on public education is unacceptable and won't stand.

I voted to reject RFK Jr.'s nomination to HHS.
I cannot in good conscience support someone who denies and will dilute our public health protections, sow distrust in science, and oversee massive cuts to health care programs for vulnerable Americans.

Righteous anger can be a great motivator. Hate is not. Hate makes you useless. It makes you stupid. It makes you obsessive. It makes you lose sight of what is important. Hate makes you lash out in all directions. It is unfocused. It is impatient and makes up lies when it is not satiated.

Cuomo made lethal mistakes in his mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic that he's never apologized for. But he did get to keep that $5 million advance for a memoir no one read.
