If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Dear funding agencies,
I know we all want to discover the wonder drug that will cure the horrible diseases, but to do that, we need to invest in basic, unsexy, foundational research on how the systems work. Funding can’t all be drug development.
Sincerely,
Looking for basic research grants.

I spent 25 years presenting evidence to federal grand juries.
Mullin is absolutely wrong. He has no idea what he's talking about.
It's the grand jury TRANSCRIPTS that are sealed, NOT the evidence and reports that were presented to the grand jury. DOJ is free to release all that evidence.

You wouldn’t say that someone was a gravity skeptic. You’d just say they were wrong. Vaccines work. Period. That is a verifiable fact.

This @NYT.com article incorrectly claims Dallas as a stronghold of Trump support: "In Dallas, another stronghold of Mr. Trump’s support, crowds of protesters stretched across a wide street for at least five blocks." In reality, Dallas County voted 60.8% for Harris.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.
