It’s time. Will leave this up for a hot sec but I’m moving to bluer skies! Hope to connect again over there. (It hurts a little that I was here for so long but now it’s not worth it anymore)

Yes, the "left" created a party called MORENA. The "left" that made economic austerity its major economic policy in Mexico. The "left" that defunded the public healthcare system in Mexico, leaving 20 million Mexicans without access to public healthcare and, to this day, there is still a shortage of medicine. The "left" that allocated a massive budget to rescue the oil industry while actively disregarding climate change. The "left" that militarized Mexico’s border and has treated migrants without the slightest dignity. The "left" that showed no concern for the 800,000 Mexicans who lost their lives during the COVID pandemic. The "left" that failed to allocate funds to help both direct and indirect victims—those who lost their jobs or saw their incomes reduced—due to the pandemic. The "left" that has showed little concern for victims of violence, disappearances, and femicides, refusing even to meet with their families.
Mexico used to have a party very similar to the Democrats called the PRD. The left abandoned it to create a party called MORENA. This is the result. an 80% approval rating after 5.5 years in power. Now is the time for the American left to do the same.

Donald Trump and his transition team are already breaking the law. I would know because I wrote the law. Incoming presidents are required to prevent conflicts of interest and sign an ethics agreement. This is what illegal corruption looks like. cnn.com/2024/11/09/politics/

A fact-checking hobbyist has identified discrepancies and omissions in “Hillbilly Elegy” that complicate the family narrative upon which J. D. Vance has based so much of his conservative politics and ideology. nyer.cm/2K2QbvP

I can’t believe I’m saying this, as a guy who thinks picking up calls from random numbers should be against the law, but if you voted in Nevada, pick up your phone!
Apparently, they are calling these young voters to get them to cure their ballots, and they’re not answering their phones. Try texting!
