This is antisemitism. This isn’t leftism. This isn’t anti-Zionism. This isn’t progressive activism. This is just blatant antisemitism.

I gotta tell you, this race becomes more & more personal for me by the minute. Bo French is a disgusting piece of shit who has no place in representing people. He must be defeated in 5 weeks. Just garbage. Society should throw people like this away.

Major credit to @cleaver.house.gov for running when it was totally unclear what district he'd have to run in. (And also Fred Wellman for running when #MO02 was Trump +12 instead of Trump +8)

I'm still so confused by the myth if Kamala had more than 107 days, she could've won. Do you know how off the grid & secluded from society you'd have to be to not know a presidential election was going on for over 3 and a half months? The US is drowning in campaign signs during election season.

I sincerely hope today was a good reminder to people to not react strongly to any singular poll (but I doubt it will be) Like 95% of polls have been TREMENDOUS for Dems. And still, a number of y'all had a complete meltdown about one poll. ...meanwhile Collins was down in 2 polls the same day.
