In a nutshell. 😊
SEN. @ossoff.bsky.social : “Draft-Dodging Donald loves sending other people’s children to war… Just 2 weeks into this war Trump said he needed $200 BILLION to fund it — that’s a decade of nationwide universal pre-k… instead, a war no one voted for, and no one can explain.”
Hillary and Kamala wanted the US to be the leader in renewable energy. Climate change is real. The administration in charge is stupid as F 😮💨
ZOHRAN: “I ran on taxing the rich — Today, we’re taxing the rich… the first ever pied-a-terre tax for second homes worth $5 Million+… $500 MILLION from the richest of the rich to fund child care, etc…💰”
Promises kept.
i’m just a girl, living through yet another tax filing deadline, knowing that some of the most profitable companies in this country paid ZERO in federal income taxes.
This Tax Day, don't forget this: Donald Trump went out of his way to shut down the IRS' FREE and EASY tax filing program.
But I have a bill to bring it back for good. Let's get it done.
"There is no justification for a regressive system in which the super-rich contribute less than the rest of us," write @josephestiglitz.bsky.social, @gabrielzucman.bsky.social, and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social.
France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.
Equals 10 nuclear reactors
Reduces heat island, shades cars
The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.
Why aren't we doing this?
Curious about who is on the ballot outside of Montgomery County in 2026? Here are the Dem candidates for governor, senator, congressional district 7 (yes, the one we *just* had a special election for) and state executive committee.
Feel free to look these candidates up, follow them, volunteer etc.
Early voting has begun! Let's get out there and make our voices heard!
EARLY VOTING STARTS TODAY!

Is it any wonder?
I have always been a huge fan of Dolly Parton. We're the same age, same height, share the same values, but she can sing better. And she has more Grammys. I've always wanted to meet her!
Reports make it fairly clear that ICE detention facilities are worse than most US prisons. And for the most part they're crammed full of people who haven't been convicted of any crime.
