The National Prayer Breakfast and its ties to the Fellowship Foundation, an extreme anti-LGBTQ+ Christian Nationalist organization, are a sham. Holding a government-run, taxpayer-funded Christian ceremony in the heart of the U.S. Capitol disrespects the secular ideals that founded this country.

The irony is that new IRS agents were hired specifically to audit high income earners - NOT like "YOU," but like ELON. He uses regular people as a shield to protect himself and his pals from clawing back what we lose to tax cheats. Elon's fans are useful idiots as he consolidates wealth for himself.

Glad @kenmartin.bsky.social is the new DNC Chair. Hope he can implement tailored strategies everywhere in the country to push forward progressive ideals and legislation. At the same time I hope he can eliminate a wasteful consultant class.

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

Just finished the #DNCForum. I'd be happy with Martin, Skoufis, or Wikler as chair. Hope to see an investment in all state parties and organizations to build grassroots efforts to elect Democrats.

Just finished watching the Vice Chair of Engagement forum. All good candidates, but I like Reyna Walters-Morgan the best. She has good experience and a good vision for how to move forward with engagement. Nikema Williams was a close second. Happy to have her in congress. #DNCForum

Lot of similarities between Vice Chairs. Prefer Hogg, Zogby, or Conrad. Some boring stump speech answers. Meet people where they are? Revolutionary! How about establishing a group that interacts with high profile streamers to get candidates interviews and exposure to younger generations?

Both candidates for Secretary seem good. Moderator seems to be misunderstanding the role and expectations of the position a little bit. While both seem good at networking and having internal conversations, I hope they will invest in better ways to communicate both internally/externally. #DNCForum
