The reason this ad works is not just that it appeals to a lot of Americans, but that Mallory looks and sounds like someone who genuinely cares about this.
We need more relatable and authentic candidates. Mallory is that.

on tuesday we were tired and had ice cream for dinner, and then a little bowl of rice.
my mission for the next few weeks is to untrain myself about what dinner must be
every meal does not need to be a salad, protein, veggie, and starch
i can make simple dinners instead of holding myself to a high standard and then just ordering takeout

In normal times, DOJ wins most of its cases because it has the resources to ensure that presidential actions are lawful. But under Trump, the Department is run by a sycophantic election denying enabler. The result is DOJ's credibility with judges is in tatters and it is losing case after case.

You have three days, starting today, to leave a public comment with the FDA about, say, why COVID-19 boosters should remain available to everyone and also free. "Individual consumer" is the category you most likely want (unless you are one of the other categories; if so, choose that).

Climate and weather disasters cost $182,700,000,000 just last year alone.
And now, the Trump admin announced it will no longer update NOAA's disaster tracking database.
It's gone. Right as we enter hurricane season.
Good luck America.
