I’m thrilled to announce that this cycle I’ll be focusing on my home state of Texas as a Senior Advisor to the @LoseCruzPAC— focusing on ousting Senator Ted Cruz.
Texas— I’m happy to be coming home. I can’t wait to make all of our voices heard— by kicking Cruz to the curb.
I haven’t given much breath to the Marianne Williamson campaign because i find it to be dangerous and disingenuous, but since so many young progressive seem to think I’m a DNC paid Biden Shrill, let me explain to you finally why I’m voting for Joe.
First of all, no where have I said I agree with Biden 100% of the time. I point to my own statement on the Willow project that so many people seem to have just glossed over, or my condemnation of the asylum ban— which once again people like you aidan seem to ignore.
I’m well aware of the fact that progress is needed— and fresh voices are desired. Here is my biggest problem with what Williamson is doing— she’s posturing. She’s saying everything you want to hear & claiming to be a champion of progress but HOW will she do it?
Pursuant to the RESTRICT bill, Facebook is unquestionably a national security threat subject to consequential actions by the federal government IF this bill were to pass.
I’ll be breaking down the RESTRICT act later this week, but I can’t help but point out the hypocrisy and danger this kind of broad governmental overreach can have. This bill isn’t the “TikTok ban” it is much larger and sweeping than that. congress.gov/118/bills/s686…
The congressional budget office said if this bill passed it could reduce funding for title 1 schools from the DOE. It could also invalidate funding for school lunch programs.
To be a title 1 school, 40% of your students have to be eligible for the free and reduced program.
House republicans are essentially threatening to starve low income students, who very often rely on free and reduced lunch programs to eat at ALL, if these schools do not create a hostile educational environment.
Watching the hearing on TikTok right now, and the amount of leading questions and interruption to the CEO trying to answer questions is so extremely unprofessional and irritating.
This is a hearing— let us ACTUALLY HEAR him.
Rep Pallone asks if TikTok will ban targeted marketing to people under 18, interesting.
Does this mean that this will be applied to all social media companies and television networks? Huh?
TikTok CEO, “TikTok is not available in mainland China. We’re headquartered in Los Angeles.”
Also points out that the founders and some employees are Chinese but that the company is Not. Also that MANY global companies have Chinese employees.
