One first-time canvasser in Canton was Manju Saha, 73, of Troy, who was with her daughter, Kuhu Saha, 38, of Detroit. Manju said Harris' Indian heritage was not a major factor in her political activity. "It's because of her values. And because the alternative is very scary,"

She and others said they know Trump supporters in their Indian American and South Asian communities. "I don't know how sizable it is, but it is there," Saha said.

This piece is so lovely in how it honors Bob’s life work. And maybe also because of the gift of many photos at which Bob would have rolled his eyes. ❤️👀

I am endlessly grateful to Bob for his belief in me, his mentorship, his terrible jokes, and his warm heart. I have lots more to say but it won’t be as beautiful as this love letter to the man he was from his bestie and co-founder @marshalevick

This devastating piece by @lizziepresser highlights the many systemic failures that led to Maylia's prosecution as an adult in a criminal system that is no place for kids.

As fentanyl use rapidly spreads among teens, the world around them has been unprepared to manage the crisis. Few doctors offer the recommended medication, most schools are ill-equipped to help and the justice system is treating children as criminals. propublica.org/article/teens…

Great @nytopinion essay articulating how criminalization is used a proxy for doing something about guns. "The anger is righteous. But we can’t prosecute our way out of this mess." nytimes.com/2024/09/06/opini…

This was a golden opportunity to show empathy to people in deep pain because their family is suffering torture, famine, displacement, & genocide. They don’t want Trump to win. They want the suffering to stop. Don’t push them away. Invite them in. She should remedy this asap.
Pro-Palestine protesters just disrupted Kamala's speech in Michigan. Her response: "If you want Donald Trump to win say that. Otherwise, I’m speaking.”

In ALL MY YEARS I have never seen them do the thing that is obviously the smart and exciting thing but which is also not the most careful thing designed to please the strategists and numbers guys.

Tim Walz was one of the first politicians to call for an immediate ceasefire & release of all hostages. And when asked about the Uncommitted Movement, did NOT condemn them or demonize them. Instead, he said "they're civically engaged & should be listened to." Now he'll be VP.✊🏽

This Court has shown the danger an extremist Supreme Court poses to reproductive rights. As a mom, I support Supreme Court reform to ensure that the highest court in the land protects and expands our rights – instead of chipping away at our personal freedoms. #MomsForAFairCourt
