🚨Please Help: My city, Columbia Heights, has been hit very hard by ICE. They have fundraised a lot of money, and still, needs currently outstrip available funds by tens of thousands of dollars. Thank you for any help you are able to offer ❤️ <https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-local-CH-families>

I'd like to know your thoughts! Reducing housing costs would be felt by everyone. I would like to spend time clawing back structural power losses, too, though. Get rid of the electoral college maybe? Refund local news?

I'm assuming most of these men do not have any plutonic female friends. My advice would be to work on being friends with women with no intention of dating them before getting out on the dating scene.

And democratic leaders need to accept the voices that rise--the burying of Bernie Sanders' viability by dem elite in 2016 is not all that different than the values of loyalty another leader expects of his party members today.

The current party leaders can't unite the progressive coalitions. We need a robust primary process to find the person/people who can reform what this party stands for.

And no one watching on TV noticed. Only one dem left in a way that mattered. Fight harder.

Let's see those cute little teeth, Dems! Raaar--be afraid! Whoever came up with these signs should resign immediately. They should have gotten kicked out one by one for the whole hour.

i worry that we may be under-appreciating the extent to which the chaos strategy is actually intended to tank the economy and increase the threat of war, as these in turn make it easier for aspiring fascists to choke off remaining democratic institutions such as elections, the free press, etc.

This will sound stupid, but I would be willing to try to be their friend. I have been trying to meet people who fit this narrative to see if humanization and friendship with a woman could matter at all.

Let the breakdown of studentaid.gov begin. Borrowers were told that IDR enrollment was open again, except for SAVE. The buttons and navigation for enrolling in an IDR plan are all looping to each other or are greyed out, so you can't enroll. Download everything you can www.forbes.com/sites/adammi...

Love the show and all that you do to stay engaged to keep us all informed. You said in this episode that the Dems in Congress weren't using procedures and rules as much as they could or should be as the minority party. Can you expand upon what you meant? What more could they be doing?

"A review of letters sent by Republican members of Congress to their constituents shows many lawmakers expressing caution, even concern, about the role Musk is playing." That's not what they're saying in public. NEW from @samsteindc.bsky.social and @cheetah.bsky.social :

When your dog is waging her 1000th protest not to leave the pet store, despite all previous attempts failing, remember that some fights are just worth the energy Every. Single. Time.
