Yesterday afternoon, I joined 30 volunteers from all over the country to textbank with FL Orange Dems for the HD35 Special Election that took place today. We sent out about 15,000 texts in under a half hour. And you know what? Democrat Tom Keen just won his race by 500 votes.
Your actions DO make a difference anywhere and everywhere, no matter how small!
"The media keeps trying to 'understand' Trump voters because they don't want to accept the truth about them. … Over the weekend New York Times ran Part #937 in its continuing attempt to understand Trump voters. …
I am sorry, but some Trump voters are not merely misunderstanding 'the economy,' or imagining his 'principles,' and they don’t think that the 'mean tweets' are regrettable. Some of them want the authoritarianism."
@wdlindsy I've come to the conclusion that Trump voters cannot be defined by any normal metric. As a whole, they are not stupid or uneducated. Some are well educated, ie Harvard, et al. Some are wealthy, most are probably not. For me, I can only describe them as either being very wealthy or having drunk the Koolaid.
The NASA global temperature data for 2023 are here! No surprise: it's a new heat record. #GlobalWarming not only continues, it has accelerated over the past 40 years. Compare the thin linear trend line with the thick black non-linear trend line; the latter curves upward.

@rahmstorf You believe in global warming? Come on, now! I don't care what those silly lines portend. We know this is just another "woke" concept that undermines American Industry.
Vehicles that make frequent stops (like school buses) are the sweet spot for battery-electric power. Regenerative braking recovers energy and makes the friction brakes last far longer.
It’s also safer and cleaner for everyone, especially kids.
Kudos to the Biden administration for investing in cleaner, greener school buses.
@TonyStark@coffee_and_pi We've been conditioned to think that we can either have well fed kids OR clean energy. It's a false dichotomy that holds back true progress. #VoteBlue2024
