Over the long term, we shouldn’t have political gerrymandering in America, just a fair fight between Republicans and Democrats based on who’s got better ideas. But since Texas is taking direction from a partisan White House and gerrymandering in the middle of a decade to try and
We’re grateful to President @BarackObama for being in this fight with us and supporting our mission. California is advancing a process that gives voters the final say on implementing new maps. This is a fair and responsible response to Trump’s unprecedented power grab.

Politics is downstream from culture and until we start operating with this understanding, we will keep losing elections. Worth the read 👇
Wrote about Democrats, the media environment, culture, and authenticity in the @nytimes. Our problem is bigger than an election: it's that we lack the tools to communicate the vast majority of the electorate who get their information through culture. https://t.co/8Xl2dN5eDP

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed. Put simply: right-wing has narrative dominance. My org (@mmfa) did this study and been sounding this alarm for years. Some thoughts...

Democrats can't just "win back" voters and rebuild a coalition that was formed 20 years ago. Gotta build anew with the voters of today. So, wrote some thoughts about that. https://t.co/mZjA5IjoMv

For the last nearly 20 years, Democrats haven’t had a strategy to grow – the priority was to hold and fortify the Obama Coalition that dominated in a moment in time.

The Yosemite National Park's annual budget is about $30 Million dollars. trump spent $30 million dollars in the last month just visiting the Super Bowl and Daytona 500. I'd say leave the parks open and have him turn on the TV. But what do i know about government efficiency?

Vought is giving big banks and giant corporations the green light to scam families. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned over $21 billion to families cheated by Wall Street. Republicans have failed to gut it in Congress and in the courts. They will fail again.
News: In Saturday night email obtained by RealClearPolitics, acting CFPB Director Russ Vought directs Consumer Financial Protection Bureau staff to issue no new rules, suspend effective dates of all final rules, and cease any new investigations:

trump has signed 100 executive orders on his first day in office. None of which lowers the cost of eggs, housing, or healthcare. He did however, get himself $40,000,000,000 dollars richer in the last week. So there's that. y'all got played.

Thank you to the volunteers and voters who stood by us every step of the way. And thank you to Vice President Harris and Governor Walz who left it all on the field while showing us you can lead in a way that is more inclusive, more uplifting, and less divisive.

And while we ultimately lost, there’s not a damn thing I’m ashamed of. Thank you to my brilliant colleagues for sacrificing so much to fight for what you believe in. Thank you to the creators who put themselves out there to use their platforms for good.

We led with heart and joy and built community everywhere we went. We brought new folks into the fold, many of whom had never used their voices in this way before. We built something durable that I know will live on.

It’s been two weeks since Election Day and to be honest, I’m still processing. There’s a lot that I—and we—don’t know, but I’ll tell you what I do: It was the honor of a lifetime to play a role in building the largest creator program ever on a presidential campaign.
