Interesting to answer a poll today that seemed more about priming people to vote for a specific candidate (AB). It included negative things about other people and then asked would you be more likely to vote for him.
Nope. In-person visit with @demiforillinois.bsky.social worked much better.

Today, we were officially notified by USG that Pres Trump's memo that revoked my security clearance w/o due process is no longer in effect over me. My access eligibility to classified info has been restored.
On Dec 23, 2025, a federal court ruled his action was unconstitutional. Rule of Law wins!

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

I have many complaints about the Dems (and my typos), but this seems to be exactly what they are doing.
What the messaging worked so well they moving on:
You know it is important and splitting the GOP who for whatever reason won’t fund healthcare for their constituents. Clean vote on the issue, hangs terrible on them. Plus, house pressure to meet, swear in Dem, and Epstein files vote comes.
