Perfect reframing of a loaded question

This is such a nice contrast to Mike Johnson's unctuous ignorance act.

Great explainer. Share with folks in CA who still may be undecided or may be thinking that their vote doesn’t matter. It does. Now more than ever!

Vote YES on Prop 50‼️🗳️

"A Church that sets no limits to love, that knows no enemies to fight but only men and women to love, is the Church that the world needs today." — Pope Leo XIV
In Magna Carta Address, Pope Leo Calls for a Church That Washes Feet, Not Wields Power
“Let us dream of a Church that heals, not judges,” Pope Leo pleads in a sweeping homily that laid out the blueprint for his papacy.

I voted YES on Prop 50 because we cannot let anyone silence the will of the people.

California is fighting fire with fire and standing up for democracy everywhere. Vote yes on Prop 50 by mail or in person on Election Day, this Tuesday, November 4.

BREAKING: Furloughed employees at CDC just received an email about the shutdown, but has REMOVED language about backpay that appeared in a similar email sent out a month ago. On the left is the Oct 1st email with the backpay language, on the right is the email they received today.

New Yorkers: we have to run it through the tape for Mamdani.

Assume nothing until it’s all over.

Vote, and get everyone you know to vote.

We all know how things have gone in the last decade when folks got comfortable thinking we had it in the bag.

It’s not over until it’s over.

Do not be a doomer about this. Just call your New York friends and remind them to vote, and tell them to do the same. He is more popular and will win with good turnout.

i hate to be that bitch, but my sources are telling me this early voting data has gotten Zohran's people rightly spooked and y'all better stop assuming this one's in the bag. GOTV
Voter turnout surges in NYC mayor’s race, with Boomers and Gen X leading the charge
The data so far is good news for independent candidate Andrew Cuomo, a political scientist said.

AOC and Mamdani should teach a clinic on how to run and win elections for any pro-working-class candidate.

Not just about social media either.
Being everywhere you can be seen.
Listening to the people you want to serve.
Focusing relentlessly & always pivoting back to 3 big things they need/want.

Over 71 million Americans are paid less than a living wage, and are forced into social safety nets like SNAP.

If you think too many people are receiving SNAP benefits, don’t shame them.

Shame their employers paying them poverty wages and forcing taxpayers to subsidize the rest.

If you’re going to post a paper on twitter, why not do it a few days after the bluesky post? No harm to your career but makes clear it’s a slower information source

This is the guy who lied on the stand at a trial in LA, telling the jury he witnessed the defendant assault the ICE officer, when the video showed the ICE officer assault the defendant. The jury took an hour to acquit. He's referred to immigrants as "filth, trash, and scum."

@aoc at the rally for Mamdani Sunday in NYC.

“This city was built by the Irish escaping famine, Italians fleeing fascism, Black Americans fleeing slavery and Jim Crow, Latinos seeking a better life, Native people standing for themselves, Asian Americans coming together…”

So good!! 🔥

Feel like ICE recruits should be required to pass the same citizenship test as the people they are persecuting.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
