Perhaps instead of MAGA, we should call Trump’s variety of federalism MADA, for Make America Dead Again. trib.al/Am7lbuN

From notes and firsthand sources, we also learned of a remarkable meeting: When the U.S. ambassador went to a Gambian minister’s office to push him to approve Starlink’s license, she noted that U.S. foreign aid there was under review. The Gambians took it as a veiled threat.

And it's a bit concerning that he is a major investor in Substack. Marc Andreesen is shaping media into his vision and some of y'all are just letting him. You are letting SS use your left leaning journalism to launder right wing extremism. It's making me nuts.

In this week's @runforsomething.net feel-good update: We've seen more candidate sign-ups in the last six months than we did in the first *three* years of Trump's first term. The movement for new leadership is growing!! (Plus, other good vibes.) rfsfeelgoodupdates.substack.com/p/rfs-feel-g...

Build workshops to help others get their passports (advice, consultation, transportation) & collectives to cover costs. Even better, those in the gov, millionaire or billionaire class should help subsidize this effort. It’s going to hurt at least 21 million, don’t let it be 21 million of ours. #3E

I think she's successfully been made the "boogeyman" for older voters, in general, and with the visibility she's now getting, likely able to make more positive gains in that demographic. Some good marketing could really open doors for her and more progressive candidates. Pendulum swings.
