My thoughts on having to start all over again on yet another platform.
If you've ever thought "hey, I wonder what I'd look like as Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev, swirling martinis with Richard Nixon," have I got the Kickstarter campaign for you! (Yep, that's me...)

the two choices in American politics are "yeah they're not exactly where I am on a lot of issues but there's also lots of overlap of my views"
and
"they are stabbing me in the balls with knitting needles right now"
and too many people say "this is the same"

As a Jerseyite (Bloomfield) and an American, I was deeply disappointed by your answers on #AskTheGov suggesting you may not sign the Immigrant Protection Package. You said signing these bills would just be a “feel good moment” that wouldn’t change much and hinted

With some of the highest cannabis prices in the country and dispensaries in only 30% of towns, critics say the proposed penalties will hurt New Jersey consumers.

Despite the steady drizzle, we were nearly 500 strong as we celebrated our nation's democracy on a very historic corner in Rahway. Flag and signs were brought out on the very spot once visited by our first president, who also declared #NoKings, en route to his inauguration in New York.

For the sake of your long-term health and that of others, please keep in mind that the New York Times has “safewashed” COVID the same way they’ve “sanewashed” Trump. Same outlet, different lies (often lies of omission).
I count 49 news headlines on the NYT mobile app home page right now, not including opinion, sports or cooking. None of them are about the massive protests yesterday.

Thank you to everyone who took to the streets for No Kings today.
Who said “no” to fascism. To hatred. To bigotry. To policies rooted in division and cruelty.
To my fellow disabled people who couldn’t attend in person, please don’t feel guilty.
There’s plenty of ways we can help the fight!
