Early voting is already underway in some states. From now until Nov 3, I urge you all to... 1) Help get out the vote 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism We are the only ones who can end this nightmare.

Hakeem Jeffries will never lead the Dems where they need to go in order to help the people. He will choose restoration over reform because he has been groomed by the Establishment. I wish people could finally accept this.

California has walked the walk on independent redistricting at the state level for 15 years. But we cannot unilaterally disarm while other states throw out the rules to gain power. With one vote, Californians can punch back and also demand nationwide independent redistricting.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "We're trying to play by one set of rules. And these folks on the other side play by a completely different set of rules. So much so that the president United States called Greg Abbott and told him, in essence, find 5 additional seats so he can rig the election next year."

Same applies to the UK. Corporate donors are the real policy makers and breakers. We have the right to vote but those we vote into power, well, their loyality sits with the corporate donors, friends & lobbyists. It will never change unless we force the change.

The way we were treated at Delaney Hall is almost unbelievable. ICE shoved me, manhandled @repbonnie.bsky.social, and arrested Mayor Baraka. They disrespected us and tried to stop us from conducting the oversight we’re elected to do. But we’ll never back down in our fight for what is right.

The anti-voter SAVE Act is a radical solution in search of a non-existent problem. It's already against the law for non-citizens to vote, which is why it’s extremely rare. This bill would make it significantly harder for millions of Americans to vote. I’m leading the fight to stop it.
