@ChrisCillizza@HunterBiden Hey Chris: Me. If you are, as reported, a “left leaning” political commentator and you don’t know? We have a serious problem. People don’t want fictitious voices that aren’t “real”. We want real people who have gone thru real adversity to help us get thru the real shit. Keep up.
Dear Chris,
I can start by telling you who my audience is not.
It is NOT you.
It is NOT the pundit class that rarely leaves the safety of its Georgetown cocktail parties.
It is NOT the chattering class who gets paid to pretend it knows the mind of the American people.
It is NOT for anyone who looks at everything through the lens of politics.
The people I am talking to are tired of the bullshit.
The people I want to speak with are the 50 million Americans still sick and suffering. The families fighting for the lives of the those they love.
Whether they are people living in the shame and fear of being canceled, or consumed by grief after the loss of someone they love, they are just looking for a slight glimmer of hope that they too can get back up again.
My audience is the people who feel unheard, unseen, and uninvited, just like me.
My audience also includes my perceived enemies, those pitted against me by you and your colleagues in the media. I want to meet them where they are and help build a bridge. A bridge built of that which connects all of us. That’s where we begin to actually heal.
And it’s not as if my intent is difficult to understand or discern. Just read and listen to what I have said on this platform, and the 18+ hours of unscripted pod casts I have done.
I think your shock as to why anyone would care says far more about you than it does about me. Take a look at the comments to your post.
And I also know this: people are tired of the bullshit. They’re tired of you and the chattering classes’ obsession with my family as Rome burns.
So instead of wondering why people care about what I have to say, Chris, maybe you should concern yourself with why no one cares anymore about what you and everyone you represent has to say.
@GovPressOffice Governor, please FIND the funds and fight Trump. I and thousands of other single parents of profoundly disabled children who have little help would be homeless and unable to eat. I already have teeth falling out and no money to fix them. Don’t let him do this.
@christopherrufo@GovPressOffice There is no widespread fraud in the program. I quite literally spend 24/7 keeping my autistic son safe and cared for. Without IHSS I have no idea what I would do. I can’t work a regular job. There isn’t anyone else to take care of him. I can’t even substitute teach anymore.
@MorganAndDavis@Curious1Richard@GavinNewsom California has top 5th or 6th economy in THE WORLD. A state. By itself. Not a country. A state. I’m all for expletives, but if I wanted to listen to an asshole, I’d fart.
@hippyygoat “How dare you speak like this” is how I feel about everything Trump has to say. But George Carlin is rolling in his grave laughing at this nonsense. It must be a vewy vewy baaaad word…
@mattvanswol The scam is the rich elite has U believing any of that is a problem when the REAL problem is the rich not paying THEIR fair share. The American Dream DIED when Reagan eliminated taxes on the rich& corporate regulation.
Also fuck you for being a moron “cattle” as Trump calls U.
@EliAfriatISR I pray 4 all average Israeli citizens, & Iranian, & Palestinian, & American. We will ALL suffer because of the rich elite treating humans like pawns.
Extremists like Zionists are part of the problem. You manipulate and sow hatred… and are surprised when you reap suffering.
@MarkJHuber2@jonkarl@allidoismix I would prefer the gov’t did its JOB. While I can see you are a moron, many Americans in the Middle East are working for the United States. Contractors, embassies, etc. Also fuck you for not understanding math.
