We struck to win back — among other things — our health care. You just voted to take health care away from thousands of people, many of whom you know will die as a result. You have much more in common w/ the Blocks than us.
Keep our name far, far away from your murderous mouth.
When Mamdani first won his primary and most of the left were celebrating, I tried very hard not to rain on their parade and said that while it was possible for his victory to be good for the movement, it would depend on how he led. I’m at the point now where I need him to lose.
I'm still waiting for @JeffLandry, @TimTtemple, and @BlakeMiguezLA to give me the name of one, just one, large automobile insurance company in Louisiana that agrees to reduce their rates if any of your laws pass.

Today: Educators at Lycée Français De La Nouvelle-Orléans Demand Recognition of their Union!

UPDATE: The CDC just updated its COVID wastewater data.
COVID wastewater levels continue to rise, exceeding levels at the same time last year. COVID wastewater levels in the U.S. are at their highest since Omicron in 2021-22.
According to the latest CDC COVID-19 wastewater data, we are currently in the second-biggest surge of the pandemic.
It will peak in the next week, with ~2 million infections per day. During this surge, ~100 million people total (~1 in 3 people in the US) will likely get COVID.
you were so loved this year. through the grandiose acts you can see & the hidden prayers you didn’t get to hear. you were so thoroughly missed, and so deeply treasured this year. and you will be, too, next year. and the next. and the next. i hope you feel every second of it.
