Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
At the risk of ruining my mentions, I want to remind my centrist friends that “vote blue no matter who” also applies when Dems nominate a leftist. We need to be single focused on winning back the Senate. We cannot do that without Michigan.

I don't think people quite understand chronic illness, what it's like to "wake up tired" but still have a million things to do. Deciding where to invest your energy as you're operating on 20% of what everyone else has. Even the most basic stuff like washing yourself or making a meal is draining.

My God. 21st century and we're still killing our fellow humans based on religion. And speaking of God, that Being would not approve of killing for any religion.
She lost her three children at the beginning of the genocide/war. Later, she gave birth to another baby, named him Zaid-her last hope. But at dawn today, Zaid was killed in an airstrike that hit a home in the Bureij refugee camp in the Gaza Strip🇵🇸😢
