Hey North Dakota peeps. Please use this link to tell your legislators to support feeding kids. A state that provides as much food as ND shouldn’t have hungry kids. act.prairieactionnd.org/letter/Suppo...

Has anyone told Trump that he’s really the President & that he’s no longer on the The Apprentice? Federal employees deserve better. We deserve better. We paid for government services. How are we going to get the services we paid for if he keeps firing all the people who deliver those services?

My FIL, an 89 year old veteran fortunate enough to still be able to live independently recently had to fight with the VA for the support services he earned and that allow him to remain living independently.

Who’s auditing SpaceX, Twitter/X, and Tesla? What levels are the levels of wasteful government fraud happening with their contracts? Can I barge in and demand access to their records and computer systems? #MarchOnMusk

Regarding USAID funding. I reached out to someone I have known for nearly 20 years whose work is funded by USAID. The scale of the devastation was beyond even what I understood.

When you ask “what are Democrats doing” I challenge you to action. We don’t do this work alone. We need you to get off your black mirror and get in the fight. Come at me with solutions. You want us to do something? What are you doing other than complaining?

I’ll be hosting a zoom on Saturday at 4:30pm CST. DM me for the link. Let’s talk politics, the Democratic Party, current events, and how we can each engage in the ways that meet us in this moment.

MAGA & Musk make a big deal about the less than 1% of the budget that spent on USAID. I just want to point out the work they do is critical to keeping our soldiers, sailors, marines, & airmen out of harm’s way. If you want to pay fractions of a penny to save the life of a soldier, support USAID

Here’s a great synopsis of what went down at the DNC.

submitted 18 days ago • 0 comments

Last week, I joined over 400 members of the DNC to elect our new national party officers. As a freshman member, it was an eye-opening experience. It was really important to meet democrats from around the country & the world to learn about the challenges & the successes in their states.

It’s frustrating knowing that Democrats have so few options to stop Trump. Let me say this clearly; the time to stop this was in November. The next best time is to hold Trump and his enablers accountable now. Protest THEIR business. Protest THEM. Remember who the real enemies are.

It can be confusing to understand the role of the various committees of the Democratic Party. Here’s an old but concise explanation of who does what. www.dailykos.com/stories/2017...

@kenmartin.bsky.social just took the helm of the DNC—and the GOP should be terrified. This isn’t just a new chapter; it’s a battle plan. A proven fighter, a uniter, and a strategist who knows how to win. Under his leadership, we’re not backing down—we’re charging forward. Let’s go. #DNCChair #GameOn

In 2024, for the first time, Florida Dems fielded candidates for every single legislative office thanks to my friend @nikkifried.bsky.social's leadership—I’m proud to have her support and look forward to our continued partnership at the DNC!

@kenmartin.bsky.social just addressed the Southern Caucus, & no one fights harder for the South. He knows we’re done being overlooked. He’s built power from the ground up, flipped seats, & won where others gave up. If we want a real 57-constituency strategy, we need a chair who believes in ALL of us

I’m enthusiastically supporting Ken Martin for DNC Chair. I have known Ken my entire political life. Ken’s actions speak volumes about his commitment to our shared values and to real people.

My mentor Paul Wellstone taught me a lot about politics—including how to win on your progressive values. We've got to let people know we give a damn about their lives & that we’re going to fight for them. www.thenation.com/article/poli...
