I have mixed emotions about "DEI." Properly, it's "DEIA." And it feels like ignoring the "Accessibility" part is ableist and forgetting people who need accessibility. But the fascist war is on "DEI." I'm going to try to use "DEIA" to remember people and not let fascists frame the narrative.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Hey, American Democrats? Today is a good day to tell everybody that President Krasnov is doing so much harm to the economy that fixing it will require raising the top tax rate to 90% and introducing a 50% wealth tax on inheritances over $10 million. Yesterday would have been better.
