I always vote, even if I don’t like any of the candidates. Because one of them is always worse.

You can better understand any political party's position on any issue, by first understanding whose interests they are trying to protect.
As a rule of thumb, it's never going to be yours.

A lot of people avoid politics because it’s overwhelming and they don’t want to be hopelessly depressed. So they check out and then check back in when it’s time for a presidential election. This is how we got to where we are now. We won’t get out of it until this changes.

If you're grasping for anything to feel good about right now - and that's a very difficult thing to find - feel good about the fact that not everyone is as much of a spineless, collaborating coward as our elites. Total strangers will risk their lives to stand next to you.

I feel awful for our expert civil servants who faithfully served our country only to be fired by unqualified, uncaring, irresponsible men who couldn't even make it one year doing government work.
Looking at you Elon and Bongino.

Want to get Americans off SNAP?
Well, if the minimum wage had kept up with inflation and productivity, it would be $26 an hour. That would remove 13 million workers from food stamps overnight.
Start there.
