No one wants to be governed by a petty tyrant. Or have mob boss politics. We have to fight fire with fire or live indefinitely under his thumb. I think a break of some sort is in the offing. Blue State Coalitions.

I heard about a blue state govornors chat led by Pritzker and Walz several months ago that was started in 2020, so I think there might be 1, very quietly in the background.

I hope that blue state governors chat is still happening, or picked up again after the 2024 “election”.

It is happening, Illinois and Colorado started this joint organization in November last year, all member governors share resources and coordinate responses govsfordemocracy.org

I thought they started that when covid started, or is this another 1?

Very nice. Pritzker and Walz should run together. I have a libertarian son who loves both of them and would happily vote out of party for that duo

My governor (NY) has said she is working towards something similar to CA. But we need a special vote to pass the amendment, so she needs to get moving and be more public about it. Are you listening @governor.ny.gov?

Have you called her office?

Right now we have a MAGA campaigning for governor. We can’t that happen either.

Y'all need to get Mamdani to run for govorner instead.

I honestly think he would have a much more difficult time securing governor. Zeldin tried to win governor a few years ago and lost, bigly so hopefully another MAGA would also lose. I think a democratic socialist might not do well statewide. But that’s my opinion, not based on a real fact.

Oh damn. That sucks for NY. We all know people that don't choose that which is in their best intrest. I think Indigenous Americans have a name for that... maybe Cayote medicine or spirit or something
