"Prairie Progressives" TOON - Perfect!



Source: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/9/4/2267612/-Cartoon-Prairie-progressives

I especially love the third panel, having grown up in the state that differenced it's Democratic Party with the official name "Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL)". I thought ALL Democratic Parties were about "Farmers" and "Labor"!

I hope every half-assed media shill gets this shoved under their noses...

appreciatively,
Bright

I cannot say there are tons of progressive voters around me but they are there. This little area can go either way but even though you sometimes hear from the big bragging Magats I can live here on my farm and never be bothered by them. I have no idea where my little spot in the road town is headed politically. Keep the women riled up and you have game. We pulled Kansas through more than once. I think that may be true again.

This Progressive, like Coach Walz was born in Nebraska and raised in a small town. WE EXIST. We're here.
