Great debate at Rider University. Sitting with 8 other candidates, I realized I have more Capitol Hill experience than all of them...combined! My boss, Senator Edward Kennedy, got a minimum wage increase - with D's in the minority! I'll bring that smart fighting spirit to Washington. SamForNJ.org

All 50 state constitutions have ways to help the people overcome gerrymandering. Here's how in Virginia: retire the state Supreme Court. Virginia's Article VI gives the Assembly the power to set the retirement age of the Court. Dismiss them, and the voter-approved redistricting map can be law again.
After a great day of doorknocking in Pennington, relaxing at Needle Creek Brewery over a glass of stout! The goat ran away, might not be a registered voter ;-) Great, engaged citizens. They’re concerned about health, AI, and democracy. Next weekend in #NJ12 come join our canvass! SamForNJ.org
If you're nearby, you can help. Detainees are often the breadwinners of their families. Their families will be visiting them. Bring gift cards - $25, $50, whatever you can - to the facility. Be a helper.
Donald Trump reposted a video calling China and India "hellholes." I guess we should be grateful for the mild language. Immigration makes America great! Here, I connect the diversity of NJ-12, Asian communities, birthright citizenship & Harold And Kumar Go To White Castle. It's here! SamForNJ.org.

EU Economy Commissioner Dombrovskis: EU doesn't believe this is time to ease pressure on Russia, as Secretary Bessent has done with second extension already. In fact, Russia is the one gaining from Iran war and increase in fuel prices. We need to strengthen pressure on Russia.

Laughter: A Direct Path to No-Mind Laughing is a powerful spiritual practice. When you laugh deeply, you drop the mind, your boundaries dissolve, and a surge of life-energy flows through you. In that moment of pure laughter, thought stops — and you experience a glimpse of no-mind. — SPH Nithyanand

And finally, here is the speedpaint~! They were both drawn in the same file, so, the speedpaint flips between them. Very miniscule gore warning for reference photos of deer that have dropped their antlers (not anywhere near as visceral as shedding velvet, but there's a tiny bit of visible blood).

美联储前主席鲍威尔在接受肯尼迪图书馆基金会颁发的肯尼迪奖时,警告政治权力可能被滥用。 他说:作为美国人,我们受到一种信念的驱使,那就是自由与民主极大地促进了人类自我价值的实现。 维护和巩固我们自身民主的工作,可能会充满喧嚣,有时令人沮丧,甚至陷入四面楚歌的境地。在繁荣的民主政体中,党派之间的政治分歧是正常的,甚至可以说是必不可少的。 但是,在捍卫定义我们国家的更高原则上,我们应当团结一致。其中首要的原则就是对法治的尊重。 正如约翰·亚当斯所写:“我们的政府是一个法治的政府,而非人治的政府。”
Amy is—like me—first and foremost an educator. And she explained how a teleprompter works, by having the the students look “below the word genocide and next to the word Gaza.” Pure poetry, even in this simple teaching moment
