Elon Musk is set to become a trillionaire within the next few months and a Karl Marx quote comes to mind.
"One day there will be trillionaires, but you will still have nothing."
Amazing powers of prediction.

“We are not going to get ICE off our streets by fearing this president. We are not going to protect our rights or Home Rule by obeying in advance.
Threatening Home Rule because you do not like how residents vote is an attack on democracy itself” @nbcwashington

Just now Trump threatens home rule if @Janeese4DC wins as DC mayor “I wouldn’t like it. Maybe we’ll take back Washington and run it on a federal basis we won’t put up with it” @nbcwashington

chicken coup. Chicken coup!!!
Vice President JD Vance put up a chicken coup outside the VP’s residence. A spokesperson tells me he will tend to the chickens. His kids already named the chicks. The coop was made by Carolina Coops, an American-owned small business which has been in business for 18 years. The owner Matt DuBoise pictured here after putting the coup up. #Chickens #FreshEggs #VP (pics courtesy Vice President Vance’s Office)

As a future social worker, I’m incredibly disappointed in @rashidaforward1 (& @MiguelWard1_ bc that’s what cross endorsements mean) re this mailer and the overall turn of their campaign. We are taught to prioritize people over systems, & this feels like the system being priotized

I saw @aparnafordc last year at the May Day solidarity rally. She ignited something in me that many politicians in recent years haven’t done: she made me feel powerful as a worker, a woman, and a human being. I trust her bc she trusts me and my neighbors more than corporations.

Deeply ironic timing of the Washington Informer article coming out the day folks started getting that Rashida mailer. Miguel and Rashida share the same values and vibes folks!

I'm disappointed that as @rashidaforward1 & @MiguelWard1_ promote their cross endorsement as “positive campaigning” under RCV, Rashida’s also sending out attack mailers with lies about me.
Anyways, I’ll keep leading with my vision for a better, more affordable Ward 1 for all.

Fascism does not arrive saying “I am fascism.” It arrives saying “law and order,” “border security,” “anti-woke,” “election integrity,” and “national emergency.”

I’m running for DC Council because I know a better Ward 1 is not just possible, it is within reach.
We can and should make it easier and more affordable to live in DC. Over the course of this campaign, we've released 10 policy platforms that aim to do just that:
