📢 Hopeful and Terrified is how we roll!
🗽We are uniting in purpose to defend our rights, freedoms, democracy, and the rule of law. Join us to push for Freedom over Fascism and Stop Project 2025.
Hey there! I am here to share some good news. It's perfectly normal to be hopeful and terrified at the same time about the elections coming up in November. In fact-we are going to roll into it.
Friends, I am excited that we have a new nominee and VP pick. I am excited that so many people are feeling a wave of hope with the Harris-Walz ticket. I am also nervous-more on that in a bit.
In these times of challenge and change, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz stand as beacons of hope and resilience. With a shared commitment to justice, equality, and progress, they embody the spirit of determination that our nation needs. Vice-President Kamala Harris, with her groundbreaking leadership and unwavering dedication to civil rights, and Governor Tim Walz's practical vision and relentless advocacy for the people, represent a powerful force for positive transformation. Together, they offer a path forward filled with promise and opportunity, inspiring us all to unite, work tirelessly, and believe in a future where every voice is heard and every dream can be realized.
I am also nervous. I remember the same burst of energy when Hillary ran and even the last time Biden ran. Most people need to remember that elections are not won in headlines or TV spots. They are won and lost in our backyards. We must work hard to elect candidates that represent our values, but we must also work hard to advocate for our values. In fact, we must do both!
Many people believe activism and advocating for our rights and freedoms is a waste of time. I don't see it this way. Making excuses is a waste of time.
Join us on the front lines for our rights, freedoms, democracy and rule of law. We can do this!
