This is my then 3 year old daughter during the Women's march of 2017. I'm voting for #KamalaHarris because her future is female. Giving my kids a strong, smart, empathetic president who will protect their rights and their future is the easiest choice of my life. #WomenForHarris
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.
It's a show? It's a lifestyle. It's a religion.
We are sorry to say that Gilmore Girls Seasons 1-7 will be leaving Netflix in the US on June 30. Raising a cup of coffee to every fan who visited Stars Hollow with us.
The most progressive Dem fighter about to be seated in the Senate is a woman who grew up in a union household on Chicago’s South Side. Her father worked the third shift at a General Motors factory, and her mother was a public school teacher. Yet she gets little to no attention from the left. 🤷♀️
@A1i3nN8@HunterBiden The irony that you're blasting someone - who is in recovery, no less - about being empathetic and having gratitude. I wonder who is truly the narcissist here.
Best offense opportunity for Democrats in a while is that for the next 7 months they’re going to have some really pissed off lame duck Republicans to potentially work with. Get these guys while they’re in YOLO mode!
@NWSOmaha@janoman0 It must get exhausting answering the "what about" specific questions, but I'm asking about Bellevue for today and tomorrow. I have a senior on oxygen 24x7. It makes it a little more stressful.
@NOTUSreports@cmclymer@avanidkalra So her decision is to not vote? That's apathy in motion. It doesn't change anything in her world. It actually takes her out of the mix but it will never help her or anyone else for that matter.
For 45 years, Berkeley built virtually no new housing. By the mid-2010s, it was the most expensive college town in America. Shortly thereafter, YIMBYs took over and kicked off a building boom. Today, nominal rents are below 2018 rates—remarkable progress on affordability.
NEW: NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani unveiled a budget that closes a $12 billion inherited deficit with no property tax increase and no major service cuts, while adding a first-ever pied-à-terre tax on luxury second homes worth over $5 million. The plan includes record investments in NYCHA, affordable housing, universal child care, libraries, parks, schools, hate crime prevention, tenant legal services, and new municipal grocery stores.
BREAKING: Mayor @ZohranKMamdani has announced a balanced budget with no cuts to essential services, no property tax increases, $4 billion more from the state government, and a new tax hike on the ultra-wealthy.

@PalominoOMG@HannahMuldavin I'm not trying to be an asshat, but I don't understand your take. Are you saying that to vote at all in America, you need to see another country prioritized?
