I don't think he sucks. I respect him and like him. I just don't understand how voting for what we don't want is going to get us to what we do want.

Americans are realizing the size of our military budget does not correlate to an increase in our “national security.” Iraq War did not make us more secure. 20 years too long in Afghanistan did not make us more secure. 750 military installations around the world do not make us more secure. Buying more military equipment that isn’t even made here and isn’t even the smartest use of our dollars does not make us more secure.
Nope. It just makes military defense contractors wealthier.
#CutTheMilitaryBudget by 20%.
Pentagon budget proposed for FY2024: $886 billion / $146 billion higher than when Biden entered office. (Makes us less safe)
Cost of the $600 checks from Dec 2020/Jan 2021: $141 billion. (Lifted millions out of poverty)
Just FYI.

We have “social welfare programs” for the wealthiest corporations in this country, and no one asks “how’re you gonna pay for that?” #Marianne2024

I’m very sorry about what you went through. You’re right that no one who has not served can know the full horror of it. But all of us should weigh in on issues of war and peace.

We would have had a powerful environmental agenda, and no Iraq War.
Justice Sandra Day O’Connor was the swing vote we were hoping for at the time, but she didn’t come through.

Later, a final recount showed that Gore had won.
Why so relevant now? Because we could’ve had a world class environmentalist as president in 2000!

With all the misinformation about a stolen election in 2020, there actually WAS one in 2000. @SCOTUS overturned the Florida Supreme Court’s decision to recount their votes.🧵

Watch last week’s Firelight Chat with climate scientist Peter Kalmus.
One of the ways we counter climate despair is by arming ourselves with information. Once we have our hands on the lever of power we’ll treat climate change as the emergency it is.

Rev Jesse Jackson stepped down today as head of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition. He inspired so many of us to take a stand for more just society, and his guidance will continue to reverberate. I hope his next chapter is blessed with peace and joy.

It's not a "smear" to simply disagree with someone, or to criticize their political positions.
