New Mexico needs context. The poverty on the res is indescribable to people who haven't seen it first hand. They wouldn't believe it could happen in the US.
And even in those conditions, the people of NM will still give you the shirt off their backs to help you.
Moving to NM in April taking 6 blue voters with me and have another 4 being raised. One is 16 and chomping at the bit for his first election midterm 2026.
The Navajo Nation is the largest Indian Reservation land base.with a portion in NM, most residences have no running water or electricity.Employers are state govt, military bases, gas and oil extraction. Home of the atomic bomb is Los Alamos stills makes nuclear bombs has the highest income earners.
And it will only get worse for them due to their ignorance. And they will never learn because they are not taught. Republican's are literally the party of dumb.
The list is a great example of why the left lost.
These guys want a change and they're willing to burn down the house to get it. If not a change, they at least want to see blue states suffer too.
All Dems did was offer 'cheaper stuff' (health), not more money, all while blaming it on their stupidity
They piss and moan but don't question the Republitraitors cause. This is what they wanted. They shouldn't complain about anything. They got exactly what they wanted. The rest of us shouldn't have to pay for their stupidity.
Plus thanks to @govmlg.bsky.social focusing on early childhood education and raised teacher pay we’ve gone from 49th in child poverty to 17th! We also have the highest % of female legislators in the country.

Don't you just love how those Republicans know how to manage their states! They are always winding and criticizing others but they keep everyone else in their state poor and stupid. I guess they realize it's easier to control the population that way. Now they're trying to do it on a grander scale.🤫
I 😔 unfortunately live in one of these red states. And as much as I would love to move to a blue state I am financially screwed. My mortgage is nothing like rental prices. And now with a single income I wouldn’t qualify for a mortgage. I am not the only blue but we are outnumbered right now.
We can't help it. We have so much left over from excelling in diversity of incomes, ideas, creativity, hard work, and empathy. We share because they are our fellow citizens. Too bad they've allowed themselves to be intellectually and psychologically divided from good people in Blue states.
Let’s try some context, liberals have done nothing meaningful in decades to make inroads into these states and have done shit to sabotage progress like saying Appalachia deserved Helene. This isn’t just an issue of all Republicans are evil this is an issue of the heartlessness and sadism of liberals
Also the same states nursing heavily on the Federal teat.
The poverty rates are probably much lower than what the GOP wants for all states.
Billionaires really need the money.
Yeah, I live in one of those states.
It amazes me how these poor sons of bitches are so fucking stupid that they don't know they are too poor to be a Republican.
At least they are too damned poor for ANY Republican policies to actually benefit them in any way.
Just waiting for their big break.
Most of those states are subject to extreme natural disasters worsened by climate change. So when the orange douche does away with FEMA those poor states will pull themselves up by the bootstraps. Sounds good.
Yeah, cut off Medicaid and all federal benefits for the U. S!
The red state ignoramus MAGAs won't be able to blame the woke Democrats for cutting them off. Maybe they'll finally realize the Republikkkan party doesn't really care about them.
Imagine Democrats getting off their lazy asses and actually putting in the time, money and effort to win votes in those states instead of endlessly complaining that people are failing them
I’m curious, when I was working mon-fri days at LSU transcribing lectures for deaf & hard of hearing students, sat-sun mornings as a gas station cashier, and every night at 1am doing a paper route, all while taking care of 4 kids, when did I have time or energy to even know anything about politics?
it seems you didn’t look at my SSN statement. or read my post that I am not poor any longer. I was talking about the time when I made roughly $26k a year gross. or are you just a troll? 🤔
Where are you on your state's top poverty standin, Gov Tate Reeves?
Where are YOU, new WV Senator Jim Justice?
Where are you, Maga Mike Johnson on Louisiana poverty rate?

Recall, the game we are playing is the electoral college.
