Outstanding! Wonderful advice, Jess. If you feel worse after listening to a political podcast or program walk away! Being all sad and resentful and angry and wringing hands is bad for mental health and doesn’t get anything done! Easy to fall into that trap and just what this administration wants.

It’s interesting that all these discussions always end with “we need to elect good leaders.” Guess that’s why I am in my 27th year of political volunteering on campaigns. In school so poll work is out.

Currently phone banking for Abdul For Senate in Michigan. Great candidate!

Okay, so sending some $ to help blue dots in red states is $ well spent. Got it. Check. Done. Thanks!

what do we do or should do if CF47 claims midterms are invalid due to votes being rigged, foreign interference, or ice violence, whatever excuse he gives?
