- At last.
- This is therapy.
- I spoke at an Empty Seat Townhall for Congressman Sam Graves in Marceline, Missouri, population 2K. Sam hasn’t met with constituents since 2012. He’s been in DC for 24 years. This group would like to send him home.
- In 2018, when @repstansbury.bsky.social first ran for state rep in New Mexico, she ran against a long time (14 years) GOP incumbent. Volunteers knocked on Dem doors: Stansbury knocked on all the GOP doors. She won. Handily. Democratic candidates at all levels could learn from her example.

- You can tell how good an event it was by the fact that it never occurred to me to take a pic of Pete on stage. Once he came out, we were all ears. I had the delightful good luck of running into @fpwellman.bsky.social afterwards. He had come to town to help organize the event. What a pleasure, Fred!

- This is not proof. This is simply a meme. Only one person on this whole thread has asked for any link to supporting reputable sources. It’s really important that we become more discriminating consumers of social media.

- Maybe show some respect? They’re about the only one on this thread who isn’t being led around by the nose by their own confirmation bias. Every meme making an assertion should be accompanied by a link to a reputable source that backs up the assertion. If no link is provided, we should be suspicious.

- Thank you. The confirmation bias in evidence on this thread is disheartening. All such assertions/memes should be accompanied by links to reputable sources. It’s just basic courtesy, and acknowledges the fact that there is a ton of disinformation on social media.
- Thank you. It’s appalling that not only was no link provided to support the assertion in the meme – hardly anyone has expressed an interest in verifying the assertion. They just assume it’s true. Because who would lie on social media, I guess.
