Pragmatic progressive and unapologetic Democrat. No lists please, no starter packs. No DMs. Caregiver--so, inconsistent poster and replier. Sorry! I have receipts. I repost a lot of Elected Democrats. Dem bashers: PLEASE don’t follow me. YES ON 50!

Here's what I was taught:

Always vote to reduce harm.
Especially to those who don't have your advantages.

Don't know why this is so hard for some people.

And why they are so proud of opting *not* to do that.

Right? Speaking of my favorite President:

President Biden is going to Omaha, Nebraska next month for the @democrats.org top annual fundraising event.

I saw this on FB yesterday, the Israeli Embassy in the U.S., wishing a Happy Hispanic Heritage Month. As a Mexican Jew, this makes me feel very happy and seen.

Harry is fun, but he has an annoying habit of painting dire polling on Trump into a happy picture. He’s the Bob Ross of pollsters. 🎨;)

i do not believe the statement about the generic ballot in this post is accurate. GB has moved 7 points toward Dems since January, per our average (at the new 50+1 site here! fiftyplusone.news/polls/generi...)

WGN, this woman’s employer, is now reporting she was not charged with any crimes and was released.

DHS said earlier she was arrested for assault for throwing objects at agents.

Gettin' yelled at by Machado fans, cool. "She went to prison for her beliefs!" She supports Trump's bombing of Venezuelan fishermen and wants America to get into another quagmire war for Venezuela's oil. No thank you. "Obama congratulated her!" Enjoy this block.

the nazi does not care that he is being kicked

the nazi only cares that he gets to watch people he doesn’t like being kicked harder than he is
