chaotic good xennial ND nerd in the coastal empire. vp at Frakture. longtime digital strategist + policy wonk. transplant patient. If we must do without hope, there is always vengeance.
A constitutional republic is a form of what? I'll wait while you look it up. Also you should try actually reading the Federalist Papers! They're very informative!

Is a Pyrrhic victory still a victory? Genuinely pondering.

Genuinely think that Newsom's politics are going to be so out-of-date by 2028 that he will be a non-factor.

Is he fine composing music for transphobes?

I don't mean to discount moral questions by any means, but I'm not the first person to observe that maga has not had an optimal fascism deployment strategy.

They heard the term "spike protein" in some context and just ran with it.

Want to give money to national groups? Try @indivisible.org or @runforsomething.net or @votersoftomorrow.org. They will not waste 54% of your donation on bullshit.

I like Norm Eisen, and I think some of the people he works with are fine. But right now grassroots donors have two imperatives: support people who are impacted by the new American gestapo and candidates who will fight this.

These guys have no history or expertise in supporting local races. Scammy.

54% overhead is insane. Indefensible. And frankly the other donations went to state party orgs which I guess we can debate the efficacy of, but 💸🔥 imo.

Really curious what the actual (ie secret) vote count would have been.

I'm introducing a bill to prohibit ICE agents from being reimbursed for zip ties and pepper spray they use during their days off.

I'm introducing a bill to put a 20% tax on camouflage gaiters.
