James Talarico responds to AOC calling woke 1.0 crazy, policing people's language is performative politics, and it stops you from building a coalition
“I do think that there was a rise in performative politics in people who are more concerned about using the right words, usually determined by academia”
“Those are unifying values that we all agree on.”
“But when you start policing people's language, when you start judging people because they're not up on the right terminology, you're no longer building a coalition to address those real problems”
“you're performing a kind of politics that's about your own intellectual and emotional needs and not about actually making change.”

America is tired of disrespect, lies, insults, name-calling, broken promises, and people who use religion as a puppet or power to enrich themselves. America wants honesty, to be heard, respect, and honest leaders—even for those who you disagree with…A lesson for @GOP and @TheDemocrats: Let’s work for We the People! Longer tables, all welcome! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This is the message.
We are broken. We can fix that. When we come together, work for the common good, and put our differences aside.
.@JamesTalarico: There is something broken in America.
Our economic system is broken. Our political system is broken. Even our relationships with each other feel broken.
That’s because the most powerful people in the world want it that way.
They want us looking left and right at each other instead of looking up at them. The real fight in this country is not left vs right, it’s top vs bottom.
Tonight we sent a crystal clear message to the people at the top: We will not be conquered.

@TheDemocrats
Democrats:
Don’t waste this opportunity.
The time is now to set our country back on the right track.
The future is now and you have been given the responsibility to secure it.
We turn to you. Don’t waste it.

The average American wants leaders who will work for them, reach common sense solutions, and leave the politics aside.
Woof. This is an unhinged interview, something we will study for years to come.
#OhioState goals for the rest of the season:
1) Beat *ichigan
2) Throw every ball to #4 and get him the #Heisman
Everything else will be what it will be.

A program loss for Ohio State. They had two weeks to prepare and the most composed person on the team is the freshman QB who’s supposed to be the liability. Just an absolute meltdown around him.
This is an embarrassing game. I don’t know if I’ve seen this bad of a performance from #OhioState in a while.

We're all paying the price after Republicans increased the cost of living - look no further than an order at Waffle House.

All of us at Marvel Studios are deeply saddened by the passing of Sir Patrick Stewart. Sir Patrick brought Professor Charles Xavier to life with extraordinary grace, intelligence, and humanity, defining the character for generations of fans, from "X-Men" to "Logan" to "Avengers: Doomsday." He was a singular talent, a generous collaborator, and a true gentleman. Our hearts go out to his wife Sunny, his children, his friends, and the countless fans around the world whose lives he touched with his art.
I’ve been watching #Foundation on @AppleTV and I can’t shake the #StarWars connections. Now, I’m down a rabbit hole and damn…all I’ve known is lost. 🤯
