Long Island deserves a Representative who fights for working families and stands up to Trump’s attacks. Meanwhile, Andrew Garbarino can’t even wake up to vote.

I'm running for Congress because I know we can fight our way out of this. Be a day 1 donor: secure.actblue.com/donate/garre...
Long Island families worried about the cost of health care and food prices are going to be thrilled that Trump's locked in on a ballroom while Andrew Garbarino takes a nap.
Leavitt: "At this moment in time, of course, the ballroom is really the president's main priority."
We must RETVRN (to the historic and architecturally stable and functional White House of the people).
Not enough of you believe me right now, but "Rebuild The White House" is going to become one of the most popular slogans in American political history
Legitimately wondering about the structural integrity lol
Being born into a Mets/Jets family was one of the most character building things you could imagine.

The president should not be able to take money from taxpayers and put it in his personal bank account. For any reason. Having his personal attorney do it isn’t any better.

Glad to see Rep. Jamie Raskin and @gregsargent.bsky.social on this. Dems should hammer it. Most Americans dislike corruption.
Good: Jamie Raskin tells me he's formally demanding any/all internal communications between WH and DOJ on Trump's $230 million payoff.

More Dems should talk this way about Trump's criming. He's turning the presidency into a massive Bribe Delivery System.

Trump’s Vile New $230 Million Shakedown of DOJ Just Got Even Worse
It’s bad enough that Trump wants—and DOJ will likely fork over—this tribute payment. Now, get this: It can probably be done at first without even being revealed publicly.

this is part and parcel with my annoyance that the only unions which matter to a certain kind of commenter are the teamsters and the UAW, even though the NEA, the AFSCME and the SEIU are all larger than either
'authentically working class' is dumb in all kinds of ways - not least because it means 'white men' most of the time - but about a guy from an upper-middle-class family whose grandad was major American architect and who went to prep school is, well, dumb as shit.
No I do not support all working class people, some of those assholes are very dumb

this would sound pretty menacing if i believed he was capable of making a robot army, but he isn't so this just sounds like something a 12-year-old would say. everyone is twelve now
ELON MUSK: “If we build this robot army, do I have at least a strong influence over this robot army? … I don't feel comfortable building that robot army unless I have a strong influence.” Read the full piece from @aarianmarshall.bsky.social on @wired.com www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
Elon Musk Wants ‘Strong Influence’ Over the ‘Robot Army’ He’s Building

Call time is important but dinner with wife is also important.
The full education platform will include both!
My name is Garrett Petersen. I’ve spent years serving our community and fighting MAGA on a local level.

Now I’m running for Congress against a MAGA Republican who is literally asleep on the job.

Help me reach 1000 followers - like, follow, and repost and let’s flip the house!
He's *gotta* have that trademarked, right?

All good on that front I promise
I am a Mets fan though so that may be an issue for some people
I have no tattoos or any reddit history of significance. Also no racist group chats.
I'll spare you having to look at me shirtless, only my wife should have to deal with that, can confirm I'm tattooless.
I haven't, listened for a long time however. As with most Lawnguylanders I have hot takes about my teams but I try and keep my blood pressure steady
I'm literally in the discord lol.
