Elections aren’t every 4 years or every 2 years, they’re every year. In California we have a special election for prop 50 and it’s a YES. If Texas can gerrymander then we should be able to. I know my comments will be filled with bots, but I won’t be intimidated. Our democracy is vanishing❤️

Wanna stop getting calls and texts from me about Prop 50? Send your ballot in today. That removes you from the contact lists, and helps phone bankers use their time more effectively :)

It’s simple, Chuck. Extend the ACA premium subsidies and reopen the government. The GOP can do this any time.

A tweet by Chuck Schumer says, “Republicans control the Senate, the House, and the White House.” It quotes a tweet from Chuck Grassley saying, “2day is day 12 of the Schumer Shutdown.”

President Obama endorses Prop 50 — the California redistricting effort:

"California, the whole nation is counting on you."

"Democracy is on the ballot Nov. 4. Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years."

Did You Know:

Leonardo da Vinci probably created the world's first humanoid robot.
In 1495, he built a 'robotic knight' that was operated with levers and pulleys but also had two independent operating systems.
It could stand, sit, wave its arms, raise its visor, and open and close its mouth.

Multiple airports are now announcing they will refuse to play Kristi Noem’s government-funded video blaming “Democrats” for the government shutdown.

“We believe the Hatch Act clearly prohibits use of public assets for political purposes and messaging,” one airport said.
