I got a chance to talk to Tannisha Avarrseka at Loktantra on her podcast Politically Speaking. We discuss the Indian & American politics and of course - gender and political marketing! Go give it a listen on Apple or Spotify or YouTube.

Thank you Letitia James and 19 AGs!
โA federal judge early Saturday temporarily restricted access by Elon Muskโs government efficiency program to the Treasury Departmentโs payment and data systems, saying there was a risk of โirreparable harm.โโ ๐๐๐
A federal judge issued an emergency order early Saturday prohibiting Elon Muskโs U.S. DOGE Service from accessing personal and financial data on millions of Americans kept at the Treasury Department, noting the possibility for irreparable harm.
Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.
Slow things down, donโt comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. Itโs starting to work.
Now weโre cooking!
Thank you for doing something, @schatz.bsky.social.

I voted today. Don't forget to write in Hank Kuczynski for DPW commissioner.

State of the city today for Saratoga Springs
Facebook had me and many others automatically following Trump and Vance. Check your accounts and decide whom you want to follow (or not).
Since last MLK Jr. Day I have been to churches, synagogues, & temples visiting different faiths to understand their concerns. We all have more in common than we realize. It's easy to hate an abstract idea. I'm going to work on building bridges and loving my neighbors (regardless of their beliefs).
Martin Luther King Jr. said, "Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that".
It is the most democratic part of our budget.
Participatory Budgeting passed cycle 3 funding for 6 largest vote getters from the public.

People said they voted against charter because it didn't have wards, others said they voted against charter because it had wards & it would divide the city. Some want City Manager and some want strong mayor. It's impossible to please everyone.
Agree ๐ฏ but we've had 6 charter change fail in the last 20 years. So one can argue that the city doesn't want reform.
Saratoga Springs commissioners and mayor make $8.33 an hour or $14500 a year. We are trying to change that to minimum wage. That would change their salary to $25740 a year What are your thoughts?
Participatory budgeting presentation today at Saratoga Springs City Council. Great work!
Saratoga Springs City council meeting tomorrow (Tuesday December 3) with a public hearing on short term rental.

Today I read the #MAGA folks are turning on Elise Stefanik because she posted about meeting Senator Susan Collins. And Dems are turning on Mika and Joe @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social because they visited Trump.
Is conversation dead? Asking for a friend.
As an lesbian who served on the HRC board when I lived in NC and knew Sarah, I can tell this is just hate mongering. It is shameful that Mike Johnson is supporting it.
