The news is a lot and so much of this hits harder since becoming a parent, in ways I couldn't have fathomed before. But today my toddler made my baby laugh and vice versa and that will fuel me for a while.

Local zoning is the way! A lot of these are being stopped or stalled by neighborhood organizing. These warehouses often need to be purchased, permitted, approved for occupancy and specs. Each one of those steps can be interrupted. Ppl are pressuring corps not to sell, counties to deny permits, etc

Today I said I was frustrated because I hadn't seen my headphones in days and could not for the life of me remember what I did with them. My almost-4-yo piped up that she knew where they were. She reminded me I had dropped them between the car seats on Friday coming home from school. She was right.

Targeting Kelly is one of those “this is why we’ll win” moments, bc it shows how politically impetuous this admin is. There’s clearly no adult in the room to say “wait, maybe don’t go after the charismatic war hero turned literal astronaut who ran after his wife was a victim of political violence.”

Respectfully, what’s the debate? The president of the United States has called for the trial and execution of members of Congress in a manner that would make Charles I blush. As a constitutional matter, I fail to see where there is room for reasonable disagreement about what happened yesterday.

This morning, the president ordered states to not distribute full SNAP benefits for November, and demanded that states “undo” any benefits payments that have already been sent to working families for food. Read our statement in response.

Millions of hungry Americans are not getting their SNAP benefits — because of Trump and Republicans. Millions of families are worried about health care costs skyrocketing next year — because of Trump and Republicans. Democrats will keep fighting for working people.
