It’s hard to find myself here again. This site has gotten worse, but many of you still feel like friends. Despite the trolls, I want to share this about my mother, who passed away. Her life as a working-class immigrant mother tells an American story that feels unimaginable now.
Despite my better judgment (the risk of being harassed by trolls) many people on this app feel like friends, so I wanted to share this post about my late father who passed away last week. His life epitomized the American Dream—a dream that often seems elusive today. 🧵
Thousands of Kennedy Center supporters gathered Friday in protest of President Trump’s takeover and closure of the building, surrounding as much of the performing arts venue as they could, linking arms and chanting, “Hands off! Hands off!” https://t.co/Mlk2etKBXi
And Roses have thorns!
The mascot debate becoming a metaphor about how perfect is the enemy of the good is too on the nose!
Bee > Bear
But perhaps
Nothing > something?
to crush you in the marketplace of ideas, bee is a terrible idea:
"drones" association, "hivemind blindly following leader", "put bees in charge and they'll sting you"

Unfortunately @YZokaie and her cronies have perfected the gaslighting of hard working Coloradans. They want wealth redistribution more than anything else.
To actually weigh in on the DSA mascot debate. The bear is a stupid idea.
DSA's symbol is already the rose. If we need an animal it should be a Bee as they are also the main pollinators of roses AND they are socialist animals.
Also there are a ton of metaphors that work perfectly for a bee and our movement.
The many vs the one. When bees fight off bigger predators like wasps, they win through teamwork and sheer numbers.
We could call HQs the HIVE. We could make nectar and honey jokes for days.
If this ends up being the split, Montana Democrats are going to have a lot of explaining to do.
I'm sure I disagree with Seth Bodnar plenty, but taking the Senate back is vital to put some stop to this fascist bullshit
The tech lords came after me when I came out for a billionaire tax and AI regulation.
I beat them 63 to 6 this past June in the heart of Silicon Valley.
You can stand up to the billionaires and win.
I invited Donavan McKinney to my DC office and sat down to plan a smooth transition. I offered full cooperation including transfer of any unresolved case work as of Jan 2nd. I and my staff answered his questions. We will continue this collaboration as often as his team needs.
