Retired, Jewish, anti-Zionist, anti war, pro peace, pro worker. One husband, 2 kids, 1 cat. I am weighing my options.
For my newsletter, I wrote about Democrats coming out against "trans surgery for kids" (which do not happen) and how the myth took over our politics. www.burnsnotice.com/the-trans-ki...
The "Trans Kid Surgery" Myth
The big lie worked because it played on your protective instincts

I think they need a better targeting strategy.

When Emanuel was being considered for Biden’s cabinet, I wrote a thread on why he’s a vile choice for anything. I’m reposting it here for anyone who doesn’t know his history. 🧵 Emanuel served as Obama's first Chief of Staff. He was also House Democratic leader in 2006.
Mark Jacob@markjacob.bsky.social · 4w agoWhy do people in national media, such as Jen Psaki tonight on MSNOW, act like Rahm Emanuel would be a legit option for president? Here in Chicago, we recall his administration's cover-up of the police murder of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald as well as many other reasons to say no fucking way to Rahm.
Maybe you and @schumer.senate.gov should write a strongly worded letter.
Senator Mark Warner@markwarner.bsky.social · 2mo agoI am extremely dismayed that we are 18 months removed from the Flight 5342 tragedy and once again we have a military aircraft - one carrying the president no less - narrowly missing a commercial aircraft near DCA.

The Dem nominee in NY17 is misrepresenting my experience, calling me “elderly” (I am not), saying I asked Lawler about Healthcare (I did not), & didn’t have the courtesy to speak with me before doing so. Lawler & 2 Dem candidates used my image and experience to fundraiser. They’re bottom feeders.
Anniversary reactions suck. That is all.
This is a brave, principled stand that centers the needs and rights of the students in the majority minority East Ramapo Central School District.
Effie Phillips-Staley@effieforcongress.bsky.social · 4mo agoAnyone who truly believes in public education and civil rights would get on their soapbox about the East Ramapo Central School District.
A ton of bots just followed me. No bio, no posts, profile pics are not of people. What’s that about?
Cait Conley can run through enemy fire but doesn’t have the courage to let the electorate know how, and from whom, she earns her money? open.substack.com/pub/carolynn...
What Cait Conley Doesn't Want NY-17 to Know Before June 23
One candidate asked for — and got — a legal extension to delay her financial disclosure until after the Democratic primary. Voters deserve to know why.
