If you're a Democrat remaining silent about Joe Hogsett and his abuse, you are helping perpetuate it. Democrats will lose if we don't distance ourselves from this level of horrible leadership. And we will deserve to lose.

George Hornedo has a secret section of his website, not accessible via the navigation menu. It details his "Israel Policy". It's for Zionist donors to see, but not for other folks browsing his site. And it's absolutely horrific in its warmongering.

Kroger workers are fighting for justice. 8,000 of them are demanding a fair contract from their massive employer. I'm proud to be among a group of six City County Councilors promising that if the workers are forced to strike, we will honor the picket line and boycott Kroger for the duration.

Nobody asked for what I think the big lesson of Mamdani's campaign is, but fwiw I think one of them is that the best campaigns involve an awful lot of real face-to-face work and commitment, the "shoe leather kind" that you can't simply buy with ad money or super PAC dollars
