How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14?

What about the White House?

“Congress wants to cut government but not their own budgets. Elon Musk's 'Dept. of Government Efficiency' wants to slash spending—except on his own gov-funded ventures. If they’re serious about cuts, they should start with their own staff and perks.

Elon Musk’s “Department of Government Efficiency” and Congress: Hypocrites Cutting Others But Not Themselves
In 2011, when I was a freshman in Congress, we did something that should have become a habit—we cut our own budgets by 5%.

“History reflects the Framers’ decision to give Congress, not the president, the authority to generate the executive-organization chart,” Peter M. Shane writes:
Presidents May Not Unilaterally Dismantle Government Agencies
That’s not how separation of powers works under the U.S. Constitution.

This is advice every dem politician should take to heart.

Don’t sell against the competition.

Sell what you are doing to reduce people’s stress and make their life better

It’s not about what’s wrong with the competition. It’s about what is right with you
I found that the best way to build a business is to build a relationship with your customers ask how they are doing, how are the kids , how did their dad’s surgery go, show interest in them and mean it because they know what they want

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”

We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

The central core of Trumpism is voter suppression and election subversion. Too many people only pay attention to this right before elections and forget it once elections are over.

We must take this threat literally and seriously if we want to have free and fair elections in the future.
