Former FBI director James Comey, once a longtime Republican, endorsed Kamala Harris for president:
"Kamala Harris made me feel like it’s finally morning in America. Everyone who cares about the rule of law and America’s indispensable role in the world should vote for Harris and Walz. I will."

#harris announced a slate of progressive economic policy proposals before and during the Democratic National Committee. These include permanently expanding the Child Tax Credit to $3,600, banning AI software from dictating rent costs, canceling medical debt for millions of Americans, capping the price of insulin to $35 per month and limiting the total cost of prescription drugs to $2,000 annually for all Americans, instead of just those on Medicare—and much more! #VoteBlue #VoteBlue2024 #uspol #uspolitics

@ai6yr I had a bad experience with the Red Cross during and after Hurricane Katrina. I will never donate anything to them.
@ai6yr And always keep in mind there are other organizations where you can donate that do not try to grab credit for what others are doing, and do not keep as much of the money as the ARC.
Someone shared with me a really innovative site for presenting info on #Project2025. You choose what "I care about" from a drop-down list, click "Show me," and then the website describes how P25 will impact that area -- including PAGE NUMBERS from the actual document. Y'all know what to do.

@GreenFire Every benefit the working class has, came from liberals, 5 day, 40hr work week, paid vacation, the ability to have union representation, etc.
Nice speech by Shomari Figures. (Yes, I’m biased.) The kid has really made something of himself, and his mama has every right to the proud tears she shed watching him tonight. #DNC
