I’m so sad to lose Barbara Lee’s representation and to not be able to vote for her again (at least in the short term). Her courage, strength, and integrity have always inspired me. Thank you for writing about her.
Thank you for reminding us how lucky we've been to have Rep. Lee in the U.S. House. It's a loss to principled politics not just for California but for all of the country. I was starting to think I was the only person bothered by Schiff's tactics. I have mostly appreciated his work as a House rep, but the fact that he was boosting Garvey in this way has truly disillusioned me.
The Game of Politics is so flippin’ ugly. I had never given money to a politician for their individual campaign purposes. It’s always felt so…ew.
Then, along came TR😱MP, and I started supporting Barbara Lee with more than just my vote. I am an Oaklander — and she represents everything I want this country to be.
I hope to see you, Kamau, at her annual Juneteenth event! I go every year now!
I’m feeling so disappointed to be faced with another uninspiring candidate to vote for in one of our highest offices. Thank you for the tribute to Barbara Lee, she’s been an inspirational leader for over 20 years, which seems unreplicated in politics.
I was bummed when Schiff was announced. And my god, did Schiff spend money on that ad, it felt like it was everywhere and just so basic and weird for CA, thanks for connecting the dots for that terrible picture (that sounded like sarcasm, but wasn't lol!)

I hope the Biden administration will use the talents of Barbara Lee and Katie Porter in some way.
So, is Barbara Lee going to run for governor now? ;)
