"To my fellow luminous blue dots out there: vote, organize, stay sharp, and keep your eyes wide open. If we want this grotesque era to be a temporary aberration rather than the new normal, we have to draw the boundary lines ourselves. November 3 is where we grab the pen." -Michael Jochum
Spot-on ad by The Lincoln Project! From siding with Putin in Helsinki to calling the Ukraine invasion 'savvy,' Trump consistently bows to a Russian dictator while attacking American allies. He calls Zelensky a dictator, but won't criticize Putin. WHY? #momsky#sheshed #BlueWaveIn5Days

Let's vote the predators out! Let's vote for lovers of justice, who will listen and administer justice.
Too many people don’t know this…..

Before Trumpism Came To Town....

What's in a name? We need more servant leaders.
Let’s talk about my name.
I know America. I know that, in America, we believe in a country big enough for all of us. So, JD Vance, don't you dare come from Ohio to lecture me. You don't know a damn thing about America.
He (Trump) wants us hopeless. He wants us exhausted. But we cannot afford to give up, and we cannot let the bastards get us down. If we do not deliver a massive blue wave, the country our children inherit will be unrecognizable.
