Just tried to vote at Press Street Station. Apparently there was a “set” number of ballots given to our region and all the New Orleans areas are out (apparently there are some in NORCO because no one showed up) This is pretty insane.

That prison break news conference was NUTS on so many levels.

AOC: I was watching earlier today on TV, someone was saying, “Why are AOC and Bernie going to Idaho?” I’ll give you one simple answer: It’s because you matter

Here at The Cloister, we enjoy spirited debates; this episode of @podsaveamerica.crooked.com with guests @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social and @dkthomp.bsky.social is as good as it gets. We poured ourselves tea, got us questionable nibbles, and listened with piqued interest. We hope you do too. . #Abundance

Amendment 2 went down 65-35 statewide. Without Orleans it went down 61-39. Without Orleans and Baton Rouge it went down 59-41.

Landry blaming "far left liberals" for why amendments failed IN LOUISIANA is funny. Amendment 2 went down 65-35 statewide. Without Orleans it went down 61-39. Without Orleans and Baton Rouge it went down 59-41.

NOLA, it’s Election Day. Vote NO to giving up more control over the city to Landry and the state legislature. Vote NO on all 4.

Fmr National Security Advisor Susan Rice has LAID IT OUT on @msnbc.com. You wanna know exactly what is outrageous about the conduct of these actors in Signal-gate. Get the tape. She’s on to something, among other questions: why was the Acting Chair of the Joint Chiefs left out of this conversation?

Bernie Sanders is holding MASSIVE rallies in packed venues, bigger crowds than Trump was getting, and legacy media is practically silent. Bernie is talking to workers rather than hanging out with socialites with mediocre plastic surgery at Mar-a-Lago, and it's just not interesting to corporate media

Listen, I can't put it to you any more plainly than this Logan County, KS, hasn't had a Democrat presidential nominee exceed 20% of the vote since Dukakis. Trump won 85-13. Only *183 people in the entire fucking county* voted for Biden. And Roger Marshall tucked tail and ran away.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

This. This is what overthrew the elite enslavers in the 1859s and the robber barons in the 1890s. We need these new papers everywhere.

COMMENTARY: If Louisiana Surgeon General Ralph Abraham really wants to emphasize personal choice when it comes to vaccines and public health, why not put the pedal to the metal? The latest from @greglarose.bsky.social lailluminator.com/2024/12/26/l...

Tomorrow morning we’ll be launching my campaign to move New Orleans in a new direction! I am grateful for the overwhelming support and encouragement you’ve given me. You helped me make this decision. More to come in the morning!💪
