Schumer has to go. He caved just when the Dems finally had some momentum and power. He sold out the middle class and working poor who needed affordable health insurance.

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

Zohran is stone cold man. Putting out an ad in Arabic after all the Islamophobic shit that’s been thrown his way? Pure swag.

Dems don’t need to copy his politics or even necessarily his campaign strategy, they need to learn how to grow a fucking spine.

"Let’s try to grab the dollars for these less healthy purchases." So, not whole foods?

And, why shop where owner is the enemy of liberal democracy in America?

No thanks. For me in Asheville, it's the beloved co-ops. www.hendersonville.coop frenchbroadfood.coop

Fly fishing daily:

“The guy who didn’t catch fish must not whine or complain or offer excuses, and the guy who has landed a few (whether through luck or skill) is not allowed to either preen or engage in false modesty. I’ve been on both sides often, and I don’t know which is harder.” -John Gierach

"When I take off on a trip I always think, Please, if I'm going to get killed on this one, let it be on the way back, after I've caught some fish." - John Gierach
