I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

Gavin Newsom has never had a homeless, a working unhoused, or an affordable housing advocate on his podcast despite governing California.

So yeah I think it’s weird that he’s entertained & platformed multiple fascists while grinning, nodding & relenting to their easily defeatable talking points.

Ash is an OG and mentor I always turned to first to get advice as a Black writer in the space. When imposter syndrome was kicking my ass, and especially while dealing with survivors guilt from layoffs and being laid off, her words always kept me grounded in my purpose. Hire her expeditiously!

Reporters doggedly criticized Kamala Harris in 2024 for a) not having any policies, and b) having too many details in her policies.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump's signature policy proposals have always been vaporware and it's just been "Donald Being Donald."

the leaders of the civil rights era could not propose or veto legislation. they had no "power." but they had legitimacy because they were out there. Letter from a Birmingham Jail was written...FROM JAIL. But with these guys "Hey it's crazy right now and we can't do much, but give us money." LOL ok.
