Editor’s Note: This week, I’ll be sharing guest blog post from folks who identify as allies and what that means to them.

I was so energized by the President’s stellar performance last night – defending MY family – that I set up a little fundraiser. Can you help me celebrate my 42nd birthday (Oct 22) with a modest $5 donation? That’s all I ask – the cost of treating me to a cup of coffee or a […]

More details here. “There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent […]

The charity’s board of directors on Friday voted not to renew its partnership […]
