50 days. Let’s make every moment count.

This is an absolute kicker. Unreal.

There's a chaos caucus in our politics. The seriousness of our elected leaders can be measured by whether they think these people need to be defeated or pandered to. Rashi Kesarwani, you're a warrior. Keep at it. berkeleyside.org/2024/10/25/ber…

Thank you to Consul General Lim Jung-taek for the invitation to join in Korean Foundation Day celebrations! I'm pretty enthusiastic about Korean-American relations, seeing as I'm a product of them. 🇰🇷🤝🇺🇸

Kamala gives a full throated YIMBY message on ending the housing shortage tonight, to thunderous applause: “For years we have heard excuses about why America can’t build enough housing. Enough with the excuses, I’m gonna cut the red tape…to speed up building and get it done!"
