OK so has he tried to contribute to any progressives running for office?

Yep! He had Mamdani on 4 months ago to promote him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7Th... Abdul El-Sayed a month ago to support his primary run. He promoted Kenneth Mejia for his run as LA Controller(and won!). He has promoted Kat Abughazaleh many times for her run.

I still am not a fan of his glazing of China and disparaging of Ukraine. Honestly, it would be to his benefit to shut the fuck up about international politics (except maybe Israel/Palestine) and support a progressive Tea Party strategy of taking over the Dems
