136 years ago was the last time Mississippi had representation by Black senator. Before the Reconstruction era.
The last time a Democrat served was 1947.
This moment is bigger than words and will change the political dynamic of Mississippi and the South. Those who live in Mississippi will know, but others may not.
This is what actually makes America great—this kind of representation will change lives & save lives.

Charlie Kirk’s grifting widow is touring the talk shows (again) pimping her dead husband’s hot sauce (and btw who approved that url—kirkSHOTsauxe 🥴)
I am laughing… to the point of asthma… about the absurdity of it.
But also continuing a larger conversation about how Republicans weaponize their “grief” to grift…
Very quick video this week because I’m playing catch up at home but I want to continue this conversation of how intentional and curated Republicans are (and have been) in using emotion to evoke sympathy & manipulate Americans into supporting their grift.

The fact that we can’t tell if Donald Trump actually meant to appoint Dana White—UFC Fighter, or Dana White—advisor to the Secretary and Deputy Secretary of Defense for communications to be the next White House Press Secretary is EXACTLY why 94% of counties in the US just shifted away from the Republican Party 😭😭
Iowa is so funny because they unapologetically elected Eric Armstrong, who withdrew his candidacy due to health problems, because that’s how much they didn’t want a republican!! Just completely ignored his resignation 💀💀
Mind you—he dropped out 2 months before the election AND won by 9 points in a county that Trump won by 20 🤣🤣

Wait—is Mitch McConnell dead on this timeline??
I heard we switched, wondering what villains are still with us? Surely not Newt Gingrich?? 🧐
Senator Elissa Slotkin may or may not try to replace Chuck Schumer as majority leader, but for me what this confirms is what many of us already knew—there are definitely conversations about replacing Schumer as leader taking place behind closed doors.
All these videos about Mississippi are healing my soul but this one almost made me throw up I was laugh-screaming the entire time 💀
Heyyy y’all if you want to help Mississippi along—even virtually—go here! Lots of ways to help! 💙💙
I’ve been making calls to remind affidavit voters of the Tuesday deadline:

Nuance exists. And this is how you speak to it and bring others in to the conversation.
Just an immaculate approach to a difficult discussion around faith by Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed.
“John Fetterman is threatening to leave the Democratic Party”
Babes, John Fetterman has the relevancy of dial-up—good riddance.
Really looking forward to the IUDs in vending machines & gender reassignments on every street corner I was promised by fear-mongering Republicans. 👀

Anyway, I thought this campaign Abdul El-Sayed shared was one of the best I’ve ever seen.
What kind of world could we make if we treated all of our children like all of our children?
The government should work for us and not billionaires. This is the man who will make that happen. 🫶
What’s your energy level rn?? 👀
I’m a Ben, but I’m rallying to Leo.
We got 3 days to lock in and make this happen, Let’s goooo 💙💙💙
