Cheri… I’ve donated to you twice (in this electoral cycle alone) and voted for you (again) and will vote for you once more in November, but these daily e-mails and texts are driving me nuts. There has GOT to be a fundraising approach that expresses appreciation for loyal support without demanding more of the same day after day after damn day.
#Politics Here’s some unsolicited advice for #Democrats in “reliably red” districts or states. Instead of lamenting that there’s “nothing we can” do because of #gerrymandering (while you’re still hitting us up for money), show us what you WOULD do.
Set an aspirational vision. Tell us where we can direct our money to effect real change and help marginalized Americans, (somewhere other than your campaign coffers.)
Our Republic is burning; we can’t smother the flames with e-mails.
Let’s take a moment to thank the voters of #NorthCarolina for ousting birthday Republican Governor Pat McCrory after he pushed the hateful anti-LGBT “bathroom bill” and electing Democratic Governor Roy Cooper. He’s fighting for women’s reproductive rights here in #NC. #Politics #SCOTUS #RoeVWade
If you just shrug at the prospect of #Republicans gleefully shredding #SocialSecurity and #Medicare because you’re too young to benefit, imagine how you’d ever be able to pay off student loans, buy a house, start a business, save for your kids’ college or your retirement, or realize any other life dreams if your parents (and in-laws) depended on YOU for housing, food, and medical coverage. Register, #VoteBlue, and convince others to do the same. THIS IS NOT A DRILL! #Politics
It’s obvious that the famous “Art of the Deal” was never anything more than threats and innuendos and outsourced violence. #Politics #January6thCommittee #Hearings
As this all went down
#TedCruz sent this message; I’ve
Kept it ever since
War zone was described
By an officer not trained
For a combat role
Now you understand
Why the GOP did not
Want that footage show.

Milley sounding like
Al Haig reassuring us
Everything was fine

“Be there! Will be wild”
Tweet from Trump incited his
Loyal MAGA crowd

Pence, remember, was
Put in place by Manafort
NOW we might see WHY

None have paid a price
Equal to what Liz has paid
Just to tell the truth

USA was a
Shining city on the hill
Now, yeah… not so much
#January6thCommittee #Hearings #Politics #Haiku #CoSoHaiku #CoSoPoetry
Bill Barr called “bulls***t”
On the insurrection and
Finally quit his job
#January6thCommittee #Hearings #Haiku #CoSoHaiku #CoSoPoetry #Politics
Enemies at work
Foreign and domestic; the
Latter looming large
Once again, everything is up to us, the American voters, to save our Democracy as all three branches of our government throw up their hands in the face of continuing sedition. #Politics #January6thCommittee #insurrection
Whatever else emerges from the #January6thCommittee hearings, may we please find out why #TedCruz was ***fundraising*** as blood flowed in the #insurrection that he helped to incite? #politics
Congratulations to political “savant” Kevin McCarthy for igniting the conflagration that will consume him and the rest of the GOP “party over country” traitors as the #January6thCommittee hearings begin tonight. Smart move, Kevin… really smart. #politics
