dontputmarbles @dontputmarbles.bsky.social · 10/07/2025Yes, it's the one with the most power to actually make that happen. To rebuke a Democrat who is attacking a fellow Democrat - a big no-no, we're told, and from someone in his own state to boot - would send a strong message. If you need it dumbed down: it is far, far worse that it's the NY gov. 420

dontputmarbles @dontputmarbles.bsky.social · 10/07/2025A governor cannot be considered a simple "local politician". He is the leader of a state calling for "fellow Democrats" to ignore the will of the people and run a conservative Democratic candidate in the general election. 150
