Wow. Just a random guess: You have health insurance. You could afford to send your kids to college. You’re able to live on just one job. You make more than $15 an hour.

If it’s not a sniffy censorship bureau then when do I get my Twitter spaces?

Whoever you are, I love you

Never. ever.

This is a formal invitation to @RobertKennedyJr and @POTUS to debate me. Clearly the DNC will not allow Biden to do so. Hopefully @FoxNews, @CNN, @MSNBC or an Independent News outlet will provide either a Town Hall or a debate between Kennedy and myself. I look forward to it.

One of my opponents, @RobertKennedyJr. has stated that we should debate and engage with those with whom we disagree. I think so too. I have substantive differences with both POTUS & RFK Jr., and for the sake of our Republic the people have a right to know their options.🧵

Decriminalize, for sure

Can we have some rambunctiousness here?? Letting people tell you "there's no hope" is how they defeat you. This is what we have going for us: our agenda is the ONLY one aligned with the majority will of both political parties - from universal health care to tuition free college and tech school and even common sense gun safety laws. Go for what you want in life; not for what other people tell you you can have.

Really??? We can debate???

Those are management and administrative positions. The greatest job of the Presidency, in the words of FDR, "is not administrative, but moral leadership."

The danger isn't on the way; the danger is here. This is not a time to ramp up fossil fuel extraction; it's time to ramp it down. We need an emergency level just transition from a dirty economy to a green economy. As President, I will cancel the Willow Project on Day One. Climate denial is killing us. But so is going along with a president who says he gets it, then gives more oil drilling permits than even Trump did. Our greatest enemies are: our own perverse comfort zones; "brand protection;" and staying neutral in a time of crisis. #Marianne2024 @SDonziger @ClimateHuman

I’m talking to author @NancyMacLean5 about the stealth campaign to limit the power of democracy on next week’s Firelight Chat. Streaming on Facebook, YouTube, Marianne2024.com and your favorite podcasting platform at 6pm ET / 3pm PT next Wednesday, July 26th.

What we need is people “experienced” in calling out  unjust systems and mounting a serious challenge to them. Our problem is not that we don’t have enough political car mechanics; our  problem is that we are on the wrong road. 2/2

People “experienced in government” gave us: the Iraq war; 20 years too long in Afghanistan and a spectacular failure at procuring its future; abuse of the planet so great our grandkids might not even be able to survive it; the largest income inequality in 100 years. 1/2

I understand the technology is evolved enough to accomplish this. It’s the state of humanity that I fear is not evolved enough to handle the responsibility. (Plus the precarious nature of climate catastrophes.) If we invest enough in green energy sources, and in the development of new ones, we can do it without nuclear.

A person who approved the Willow project is the one who is “not serious” - about his own professed recognition that climate change is a threat to our existence. A person who won’t mention the public option & says he would veto a Medicare4All bill is the one who is “not serious” - about 1 in 4 Americans living with medical debt and people rationing their insulin. A person who won’t fight for a raise in the middle minimum wage is the one who is “not serious” - when 1/3 of workers live on less than $15 an hour and half of them can’t afford a one bedroom apartment. A person who IS serious is the one pointing out that our elite political establishment is an entrenched alliance of corporate power that guarantees the continuance of an American underclass. (And damn right that would defeat Trump.)
