He's a passionate speaker who's forceful and down to earth. We need more like him and AOC, and I'm definitely more than upset by Pelosi (it would seem) tanking AOC's chances as heading the Dems on that committee.

Blue state governors in MN and elsewhere are standing strong. I gain some courage and hope from that.

Democrats do not have a messaging problem.
The media and public have a Reality problem because they won't hear the national Democratic Party's past' messages; and if/when they do hear, they habitually refuse to listen and look at the Reality Democrats already, repeatedly, warned them about.

If they're shocked or hurt, it's not for lack of messaging efforts on the Democrats' part -- from Kamala, Tim, the entire DNC Convention, or the hundreds of rallies in 2024.

He says it bluntly, directly and colorfully as evidenced by this interview where he correctly calls the Trump disavowal of Project 2025 what it is “bullshit.” Moreover he hammers home clearly and succinctly how this and other Trump policy savagery will impact ordinary people’s lives. ✊🏼The man was a successful coach and an NCO for a reason he knows how to motivate those whom he leads to effective action which is precisely what we need at the moment.

Think. Again.

Governor Walz knows what we are up against, and he isn't afraid to demand ALL good people STAND UP AND FIGHT.
