Five campaigns. All people funded. All challenging the same political mistake we keep repeating. I lay out the principles I use to decide who earns my support and why these races matter right now. One shared thread ties them all together. See if you catch it.

Tired of Corporate Sellouts? Back These People-Funded Fighters
The Democratic Party’s approval is at 26% because it keeps backing the status quo. These five campaigns show us another path—rooted in courage,...
The President's Chief of Staff just admitted that his pursuit of Leticia James and James Comey was not grounded in justice, but in revenge. This is an indefensible violation of due process of law. And if I'm Mahmoud Khalil or Kilmar Abrego Garcia, I'm filing a civil lawsuit for restitution for malicious prosecution. Finally, shame on all the universities with their billions in endowments who refused to stand up to Trump, & instead capitulated to his vengeful vindictive demands. Unacceptable.
The armed Parkland police officers ran away The armed Uvalde police officers refused to act The unarmed Arab Muslim Ahmed el Ahmed took two bullets to protect Jewish neighbors and stopped the mass shooter with his bare hands Never forget: A good guy without a gun had more courage than hundreds of cops with unlimited guns Support my human rights advocacy

Brown U kids who survived USA 389th mass shooting of 2025 will now pay out of pocket for their healthcare, because USA guarantees guns but not health. Australians who survived the 1st deadly mass shooting in 29 years will pay nothing for healthcare because Australia guarantees health & regulates guns.
Noem is arresting US Citizens, deporting Vets, & killing immigrants in ICE custody Hegseth is killing defenseless civilians in open water Patel is making up an "antifa" threat while ignoring the actual threat of white supremacy terror RFK is endangering us all with an entirely preventable measles outbreak Rubio is escalating war & destroying our alliances with Canada & Europe Justice Roberts is ripping the Voting Rights Act & giving POTUS unlimited immunity This is how you destroy America.
This week, the authors of Project 2025 released their sequel, outlining plans to further undermine the American experiment—including voter suppression, attacks on immigrants, deregulation, privatization, & purging career civil servants in favor of political loyalists. Project 2026 lays out 7 initiatives before midterms. In today's newsletter, I break down each one, provide a thorough response, & suggest how we fight back. Read now and support my advocacy on Ghost:

What You Need To Know About Project 2026
A fascist follow up to Project 2025, and it's as bad as you'd expect Throughout 2024 and throughout 2025 I’ve written at length on the danger...
The people who support $12B in corporate welfare to farms and forgave $80B in auto bailouts and forgave $700B in bank bailouts and forgave $755B in PPP loans want you to know that forgiving medical debt and student debt is socialism😐
The US Govt — which bombed the Houthis for seizing ships that were enabling the Gaza genocide — has now seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela. The 2001 "war on terror" was a war for oil. The 2025 "war on narco terror" is a war for oil. This your "America First" POTUS. Are we great yet?🤔
Your reminder that there is no “war on Christmas” and no one is trying to ban saying “merry Christmas.” Case in point. I'm Muslim. It doesn't offend me when people wish me Merry Christmas. Offensive is when MAGA politicians cut food stamps, healthcare, & education, while giving trillions in tax cuts to billionaires, and claim that's the Christmas spirit. If you don't get why that's a problem, y'all need Jesus, and common sense.
Christmas reminder: If GOP didn’t give 800 billionaires a $2T tax cut (again)—we’d have enough for SNAP, cancel all medical debt, and cancel all student debt. GOP sold out 200M Americans to serve 800 billionaires. This is what class war on working people looks like. Stop bootlicking billionaires. Start taxing them out of existence.
