Hispanic voters have long been more culturally conservative than Democrats realize. Yet progressive Latino staffers have had an outsized influence on how the party approaches this community.
That finally seems to be changing, and Democrats will be better off for it.
The emergence of the Democratic majority we were promised depends on a new breed of culturally moderate Hispanic politician rather than the Woke 1 coalition politics of the Latinx era.

The grant was entered into on behalf of StL city by one member of the state controlled board. It will fund surveillance equipment and an AI system linked to the federal government with no rules governing how the data will be used, accessed or retained. ksdk.com/article/news/local/…
Everyone should feel safe in their homes, on the street and in their communities —that’s why taking on violent crime is a priority for me.
By working with @AGToddBlanche, I'm proud to bring home $68M to promote law & order in St. Louis.
This investment is a bold statement. It says we support MO families, law enforcement & it says we won't accept violent crime as a reality.

Remember during the Ferguson protests how people were surprised the police basically had military equipment? The tech version of that 👇
Don’t let Hawley rewrite history he voted for Medicaid cuts.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) with a stinging rebuke of this Congress:
“When you cut Medicaid but you fund data centers, when you cut rural hospital funding, then you fund Planned Parenthood, when you let the cost of healthcare for working people go through the roof but you can't do anything for them on other issues of affordability from fertilizer to gas and everything else — yeah, you know what? The American public doesn't like that very much.”
I asked: Does that mean new leadership is needed?
Hawley: “I'm not going to pledge my vote ahead of time.”

Preach! They aren’t the only ones that have no idea how things work on the ground and how our community is changing. It was all based on money and history. My opponent probably outspent us on TV by five times…and lost by 5 points. Things have changed and none of them get it.
At some point, we have to talk about @CookPolitical and other “prognosticators” who had me and other southern candidates labeled as solid R for much of the campaign cycle. They made it much more difficult to fundraise and are part of the reason the South has been neglected for so long.
They’re only a reflection of the past and mysteriously avoid any accountability when they’re wrong. One of their “analysts” was extremely condescending to me (not Jessica) when I tried to make my pitch for why they were wrong about my rating like he knew something about MS politics when he’s never been to the Sip. This attitude hurt Jaime Davis & others so much.

There’s an effort underway to erode black political power in this country by blocking the election of the first-ever African American Speaker of the House.
Howard Lutnick should be impeached after Hegseth and then that wrestling lady who is messing with education.
BREAKING: The US Commerce Dept was approving sales of Nvidia, $NVDA, chips to companies in China which either did not exist, were on the sanctions list, and/or had ties to China's military, per NYT
