I hope folks can hold two things at once. There was a historic win in Mississippi AND efforts to disenfranchise voters were intense and disgusting. Not a story of democracy working; a story of folks working way harder than they should have had to to squeak by under circumstances that should not be.

The voter suppression stories out of Mississippi are horrifying and contrary to every meaningful standard of law

I don't really care what it's called. I want people to have guaranteed healthcare in this country. This is one of the most important things we can do to both address affordability and make it easier to see a doctor.

I love this sentiment. It's not enough that we have the House and Senate in 2027. We have to fight like hell to bring real change that helps all Americans. Otherwise, what's the fucking point? Let's use our powers for good. America needs that after a decade of Trump's bullshit.
