The tweet says, "Tim Walz will expand free school lunches, raise the minimum wage, make it easier to unionize, fix your carborator, replace the old wiring in your basement, spray that wasp's nest under the deck, install a new spring for your garage door, and put a new chain on your lawnmower".]

Seriously, I feel like a massive weight was lifted off me.

It really was one of my lasting reservations to indicate what kind of President she is aiming to be. There's still a lot to do and she still has many shortcomings for our branch of policy that people like you and I, I'm guessing, would much rather see, but goddamn if this isn't a really good step towards something better.

To me, it shows as a play to the Midwest since Pennsylvania is more of a blend of the Midwest and Northeast -- but it also, to me, very much seems pointed towards voters who care about people who get things done. I don't know much about this Walz guy, but tuition free college, free school lunches, and becoming a trans refuge state are... Incredible. As we would say in the days of old, "big if true".

Just so excited to share, Walz referenced the couch-sex meme about JD Vance in his introduction speech! xD
