Julia Chavez Rodriguez is her presidential campaign manager.
She is also Cesar Chavez' granddaughter.

Trump will start one so that he can explain exactly how the implementation of "MASS DEPORTATION NOW! will affect Latino citizens.

I've seen things like this happen before. It started with a person in command who actually listened to the people who knew their shit, instead of trying to prove they are the smartest person in the room.
It's quite scary to watch. Suddenly things happen instead of just putting out fires. 👀🤣

It's amazing what can happen when the median age of your inner circle is below 70.

Ouch!
But probably true

The expert key jinglers are out to make sure you vote in November and forget that they're still supporting Israel

jdolbow.bsky.social•193 days ago

It has certainly been an adjustment to see a Democratic leader who... actually seems to know what they're doing? And isn't afraid to... do it? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

I wish they hadn't named it "Latinos" bc I use #WhatsApp too despite not being Latinx, but I'm also not a political strategist

lizamazel.bsky.social•192 days ago

I see "Latine" more often these days, fwiw. seems a bit more intuitive with same general effect

jdrch.github.io•192 days ago

I've never seen Latine before, TIL

kxd.dev•192 days ago

Have you tried reaching out to see if they’ll make one, or offer to help them make and manage one?

liz-parker.bsky.social•193 days ago

Labor leader Cesar Chavez's granddaughter, Julie Chavez Rodriguez, is running this campaign rollout. I'm pretty sure she knows what's up.

jdrch.github.io•193 days ago

OK sounds good

jamtoday.bsky.social•193 days ago

Are you actually mad that someone is doing targeted outreach?

jdrch.github.io•193 days ago

Explanation quoted below. There's a huge population of POC US citizen immigrants who use WhatsApp. I was worrying that the current channel name might not capture all of them https://bsky.app/profile/jdrch.bsky.social/post/3l23vnbckxb2m

avitek.bsky.social•193 days ago

It doesn't say they won't make others.

jdrch.github.io•193 days ago

Here's hoping they do!

jamtoday.bsky.social•193 days ago

It's not meant to.

jdrch.github.io•193 days ago

Interesting. Well, I do hope there are other channels 🤷‍♂️

augh3d.bsky.social•193 days ago

flakyfoont.bsky.social•192 days ago

Very smart

velvetdevil.bsky.social•193 days ago

Master class

s0laireofastora.bsky.social•193 days ago

This is a HUGE deal. Whatsapp is fundamental for the Latino community and immigrants

moved2italy.bsky.social•193 days ago

This is a great big “It’s about F-in time!” Good one Kamala!

alisonfincher.bsky.social•193 days ago

I was discussing with my spouse. It was almost impossible to even recall that the 2008 Obama campaign targeted our (then young 😓) demographic. It feels weird and extremely refreshing to have a Democratic campaign targeting Millennials and Gen-Z!

rational.bsky.social•192 days ago

Daily Kos was new once

roudy1.bsky.social•192 days ago

processanalyzer.bsky.social•193 days ago

Los medios de comunicación en español están dirigidos desde el sur de Florida por extremistas republicanos que etiquetan a los demócratas como socialistas todos los días.

xehtfodrol.bsky.social•192 days ago

They've always been around, just the whole point of the political infrastructure has been to "resist" the GOP not actually try to beat them with...working policy and ideas.
