Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

The SAVE plan helped millions of people stay above water while repaying their student loan debt.
Now that Trump has shut it down, borrowers are reporting as much as a 10x monthly payment increase.
How is this supposed to lower people’s cost of living?

The irony of Trump going on a crusade to question the legitimacy of President Obama’s birthright as an American to become President contrasted with his welcoming of an actual African (Elon Musk) into the White House to lead our country to its demise truly cannot be overstated.

While I understand the sentiments behind the economic blackout on 2/28, I implore Americans (and others) to go a step further and delete their Amazon accounts entirely. Bezos has gone to great lengths to squeeze the American poor and middle class for every penny he can, has limited the free speech

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.
