Hi, all, and happy Sunday! I know it’s been a tough several days. Nevertheless, we have a lot to celebrate. Because as bad as it was, a lot of great things also happened last week. Remember that focussing on our wins is one of the best antidotes we have to feelings of hopelessness and anxiety. This, in turn, makes us more ready to fight for positive change. So please, take some time to savor this list and then share it with a friend.
A wonderful and uplifting summary of current events and good progress made. We all must continue to elect and re-elect Democrats in National and Local offices. Try not to follow the naysayers in the media as their efforts are intended to derail our fruitful efforts! Let’s continue to work together along with Joe and Kamala to finish the job for America! Thank you Jessica Craven!

I wish to honor all those who lost their lives in defense of our great country. I also wish to remember all those who lost their lives to gun violence in this country. All the children who will not graduate from grade school, middle school, high school and college. All the parents who will not see their children graduate or walk down the aisle because of gun insanity. I pray their sacrifice will weigh heavily on all Republicans and fill their hearts with regret until they give us meaningful gun legislation. I pray this is the last Memorial day we have to live in fear. Ban all assult weapons.
Some incredibly positive notes, Jess. I'm particularly struck by your acknowledgment of Amanda Gorman's poem, which was overshadowed only by her delivery. It rivals Ray Charles's America The Beautiful::
Thank you, thank you! Just shared with two of my friends who have reason to care about a few things you’ve mentioned. :) living in Texas, (but from Michigan) I was super happy to hear of Ken Paxtons latest woes. He must have pissed off some billionaire republicans or something…wtf? Why now? But I’ll take it! :D
Outstanding wrap-up and definitely some good news at the end of the week.
Jon Hamm's ad is great and I wish Lucas Kunce all success but he's going to need something other than "I'm not Josh Hawley" if he's going to win. It will also help if the Missouri Democrats unite behind him and don't enable a spoiler like the Trudy Valentine candidacy that gave us Sen. Eric Schmitt.
Thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU! Jessica!!! Politics aside, that was an enormous amount of wonderful news! And so much of it thanks to President Biden's Afordable Care Act! And the Dodgers! If only ALL our professional sports franchises would get on board. Having said all that, What are you doing working?? It's a holiday weekend; get out there and have some FUN!!
How on earth do you find the time to find all these good news stories???? Some of them - yes; but, all of them??? It’s a fantastic boost for the beginning of my Memorial Day, as I head out to put up my flag. Thank you, grassroots activist extraordinaire Jessica! Thanks to all the pro-democracy activists! Thank you, veterans. ❤️🤍💙
I so appreciate you, Jessica!!! 💗 We need to hear all the good news and to hear specific ways to take action and make a difference, and you provide. Your commitment and hard work are giving many of us hope 🌸 Super excited about your commitment to work with us in NC.
Jessica, another uplifting post! Things are getting accomplished, albeit a little slower than I’d like, but dang it, they’re getting done! Thanks for playing a psychologist this evening.
