Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

European press is doing a much better job covering the American shit show. No coverage yet at our major newspaper outlets. A policy backtrack on vaccines seems incredibly newsworthy. I hope we see stories in the national media today about this.

I used to recommend posting on Twitter and LinkedIn in my entrepreneur fundraising pitch workshops. I replaced Twitter with Bluesky. Last night someone asked me why Bluesky specifically. My response: 🔹 32M+ members and growing rapidly. 🔹 It's moderated. 🔹 Woman CEO. 🔹 Claim domain expertise early.

I’m positive you all saw the video from Coeur d’Alene, where a woman was pulled out of her seat and arrested by men who claimed to be sheriff deputies, but were not in uniform. I need the men to do something: When you see a woman being abused, step in. Step up. Get in the way. Put your body to use.

Hearing the actual voices of those being fired will humanize and make this more tangible. If any podcasters/journalists see this, propose a 2 min format in audio clips reusable by the media: 1. What was your role? 2. How did it benefit America? 3. What are the repercussions for you and Americans?

(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The Daily Beast publishes a sourced allegation that Trump has been a Russian spy since 1987 and then—possibly under some form of threat—deletes it. But in an act of unusual heroism, it left it up long enough for Wayback Machine to capture it text. Here it is (please share):

💥 Apple is upholding its commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Despite attack from right-wing anti-DEI shareholder activists -- the same anti-DEI group that targeted Costco. And just like Costco, look for Apple shareholders to tell anti-DEI activists to take a hike on Feb 25.

The Super Bowl was a profound tribute to Black history and it aired on Fox. Delicious. The artists masterfully highlighted America's narrative through music, performances, and storytelling. Happy Black History Month. There is no America without Black history, present, and future.

I really wish the DNC would send emails that didn't always ask for donations. People are scared and angry and don't know where to get accurate news. We need leadership, information, and actions that aren't always tied to asking for money.
