Your vote is your voice. It is the simplest, strongest right guaranteed to the citizens of a democracy and it is just as important at the local level because that is where you live #November4

Spent last few days in rural Ohio in listening sessions.

The level of need, and sense of crisis, are just stunning.

Tariffs. Child care. Energy bills. Health costs. Job loss. Hunger and SNAP. School cuts.

And government doing nothing about it but making things worse.

I suppose that "Truth is blinding" is a clever enough advertising tagline for the Oedipus production newly arriving on Broadway, but "A motherfucking great play" is, come on, sitting right there. Do I have to do everything?

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Teenagers may not show their appreciation now, but when they start decorating their own places, it is an homage to your whimsy.

If the National Guard is really in D.C. to protect federal
property, they should probably have been at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. two days ago

used to be that solving puzzles that open portals to hell was something to avoid, but at this point how much worse could it be? worth at least day tripping into the portal, check out the housing market there, give it a look-see

I read Maria Von Trapp’s autobiography about 20 years ago and was DEVASTATED when I learned they did not escape over the Alps but took a train. Childhood destroyed at 42 years old.

Dear Diehard Centrists-

Your moral relativism is why we’re here. Stop pretending everything is “both sides” to make yourselves feel better.

Sorry this makes you uncomfortable.
