We are doing that. I can’t speak to what’s reported beyond the US border, but Chris van Hollen, Elizabeth Warren, JB Pritzker, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Pete Buttigieg, Tim Walz, and some others have all been speaking out as much as Newsome, and more effectively.

Also important to note that Newsome’s policies are explicitly fascist and need to be spoken against. That’s the reason people speak against them, but that in no way means other candidates aren’t being lifted up by the same people speaking out against Newsome.

Totally hear you. Every battle is won but by bit. We (I guess I’m giving myself the right to speak for The World…) really want/pray for good outcomes; for the centuries-long in-built polarization to diffuse; for 🇺🇸 to care more for ppl than 💰, power, prestige. Elevate the good ones — priority #1

Priority number one is defeating fascism. Now. Tomorrow. Always. Newsome is a fascist, his defeat and the defeat of all other fascists is, and should be, what people are going to focus on.

Agreed on #1 priority = defeat facism.

Love every one of them. The more mentions their names have, the more reach they get. Every time Newsom’s name is mentioned — even negative mentions — he’s propped up… …which props up the “left eating the left” narrative. Believe me: there’s support out here. Chagrin, disgust, fear… and support.
