I love doing these Substack Lives. It’s where we meet the change-makers who are actually putting in the work. Yesterday, Brett and I had the honor of sitting down with Deja Foxx, and let me tell you—if you’ve been asking where the next generation of inspiring Democratic leaders are, look no further.
Deja is 25 years old. She’s running to represent Arizona’s 7th Congressional District. She’s overcome homelessness, graduated Columbia on a full ride, went toe-to-toe with Senator Jeff Flake at 16, fought for sex ed reform, worked for Kamala Harris, and founded Gen-Z Girl Gang. And now she’s running a people-powered campaign against entrenched establishment interests. She’s not waiting for permission. She’s not waiting her turn. She’s going for it—and she’s documenting every step of the way on Substack, bypassing the censorship and gatekeeping of traditional social platforms.
While Trump and his cronies are busy crashing the economy, gutting social services, and partying with Proud Boys, Deja is out knocking doors in the Arizona heat with first-time volunteers she recruited through TikTok. Yes, you read that right. Her campaign isn’t fueled by billionaire donors or inherited email lists. It’s powered by hope, grit, and the audacity to believe that government should actually work for the people who need it most.
She’s telling the truth about how hard it is to run for office as a young, working-class woman of color—and she’s still doing it anyway. From calling out the Democratic Party’s crisis of messaging, to explaining how young people are priced out of basic housing, Deja is leading with lived experience and listening. Not polling. Not pandering. Listening.
Her campaign isn’t just about winning one seat in Congress. It’s about proving that young, bold, unapologetically progressive candidates can win. And if she pulls this off, it’s going to shake the entire system. It’s going to change what’s possible in every “safe blue” district across this country.
So if you're tired of performative politics, if you believe that lived experience matters, if you want to be part of building a party that actually fights for working people, I hope you listen to this conversation we had with Deja. To learn more about her and support her campaign, you can visit dejafoxx.com and you can also see what she has to say right here on Substack.

Thank you for running. I am 66 and I love seeing young people coming into the Democratic party. We need young blood and need to bring young people into the voting block. This is so important to have everyone see this. Get those new voices out there.
Agree, Christy! Let’s hear it for impressive young Democratic candidates like Deja, and also for us (young at heart) 66-year-olds! Woo hoo! Are you a 1959 model?
a 1958 model but it feels more like a 1968 model these days.
I feel younger than 66 too, except for my arthritis. Ow! 😣
Same here! I keep active as best I can 😊
Amen, my sister! 💃🏽 Exercise really is the best medicine. Even on my creakiest days, I hear Queen Michelle O saying, “Let’s Move!” and I hop to! Hehe! 😉 (BTW, my mum is 91 and still in great shape. She has been an avid walker all her life.)
58 model here
63 here & I second that! It's very good to see smart, passionate, articulate young people stepping up. Ones that get democracy, that investing in people & real opportunity pays off much more than corporate profits ever could. I remember being told idealism was dead going into the 80s. I never wanted to believe that. I have hope that we will take this country back, that we will move forward on what really made the U,S, great, the people.
We will take this country back. It's not even a option to not do it. We are fighting for our Constitution and our Democracy. Two things that can never go away. We will fight this facist orange man and his goonies with the truth against his lies, with facts and passion. We will win and, hopefully they will be charged for their crimes and spend the rest of their lives behind bars. No pardons for them, like tRump is doing for all the rich. Just justice.
💯💯💯💙💙💙
Christy, yes we do. Agree 💯 %
Daring Deja Foxx will defend democracy from the fascists! Democrats need more diverse women of color like her to lead us to a progressive future. AOC/Crockett 2028 will be the most inclusive, powerful ticket: https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/aoc-crockett-2028
It's great to see deja foxx get out and empower people with knowledge and information.
Such a bright, intelligent, articulate young lady.
This is why ALL dark money needs to be taken out of politics. These wealthy, dishonest politicians operate under cover of darkness for their own benefit.
The people need full transparency, facts, truth and information
Go DEJA!! GO GIRL!
Happy to see young folks involved in politics.
As long as they're not backwards-thinking republiCRAPS!
Yup, big difference between wanting to learn about government & work serving the people & just wanting to play games of dominance & political violence. Big difference.
Good point
I live in Tucson! I will be voting for Deja!! 💙💙💙
Thank you! She is a great candidate. I can’t because I’m not even an Arizona resident but I do have folk out there.
We need many more like you nationwide!! I’m 77 and I admire you, AOC, Crockett so many more please!
Yes!
Wooo, Linda! Lucky you!
Sadly, I don't live in the 7th Congressional District; I'm stuck with Juan CiscoMAGA. But I applaud Deja and will support her campaign!
That sucks. 😢
Do your best to call ciscomani out on his idiocy and make sure he knows Hou feel and think. We need Repugnantcans to come around. We need trump impeached & convicted and his agenda halted...we need ciscomani to cross the aisle.
Oh I email him every day! And I end it with "You have violated your Oath of Office to uphold and defend the Constitution by aiding and abetting a 34 count Convicted Felon. We will remember in November."
Hi Linda. I’m also in Tucson! Deja - you are a refreshing candidate - representing what we value in our democratic America. Bring it on! 👏
The more young people involved and running and working to overthrow Dictator Donnie and the Project 2025 Anti-American MAGA Republicans in America the BETTER!!!!!!!! More power to Deja Foxx and every other young person out there..... Thank you for getting involved! Gloves Off! Elbows Up!
Agreed!
Way to go, Deja! Keep fighting for my kids and grandkids. We need more inspired and inspiring candidates with your energy and purpose.
Come on Arizona 7th district, vote 🗳 for this young lady. She's intelligent, articulate and knows what she's talking about! She's lived it. Let's give her that win 🏆 and set precedent for the 2026 midterms! 💙🩵💙🩵 🗽 🇺🇸
I am immensely impressed with this young lady and what she’s accomplished at such a young age. But not only that, she clearly displays intellect, logic, fearlessness, grit and the determination to pursue what she deems is better for the greater good of humanity. People better get used to the young feisty political fighters with one thought in mind. To win for all!!!
A Canadian is supporting deja foxx.com starting now
Thank you Canadian Friend. We need help from our Northern Cousins even though half of our people deserve a poke in the eye and nothing else.
Love Canada 🇨🇦 thank you
Deja - after seeing the voting record of Adelita l was really bummed out. We need people like you, fighters. I loved Raul G
And fought for him but you have the grit girl!
Wow! Thank you for bringing out the up and comers like Deja Foxx.
As an Arizonan I love seeing Deja in my state.
Go get um girl! Much respects and wishing you the best of luck!
I love her enthusiasm and her grass roots roots! My kids are the same age as her and they feel like no one represents them. We need more of these younger people leading our nation...the time for old fogey white men is over. Let the youth lead! Let the women lead!
I’m an old fogey white male AND I AGREE WITH YOU, TOTALLY.
I’m an old fogey white lady and I love the energy of the younger generation… so many are checked out. It’s good to see our youth engaged in their future… we fought our battles.. it’s their turn
a THOUSAND "hearts" !!
Love this interview and this candidate!
But getting seasick with the brothers unsteady cameras. Please lock them down!!
Agree....I finally scrolled down so I wouldn't see the "shaking"!
I’m so excited to see young people getting involved in politics! Established politicians are too worried about their jobs, not the American people. Fresh ideas and clear eyed, energetic and educated. 💕🙏💕
You go and get them votes Deja. I am sure there is no dark money backing you. Your out there listening to the folks going door to door. Good on you. Yes more young folks should get involved. I just know the world would be much safer if more women got into the game. Who knows you may run someday for the presidency .
Boomer here than really like what you're doing. All the luck to you!
I am donating right now to Deja Fox; thank you Meidas for introducing me to her; she's dynamite!!
Get ‘em’. The special election turnout is low for sure but you can get the turnout and win.
Thank you Deja!
Way to go Deja!
I'm old blood but Deja is right we need new blood.
I am committed to raising money for this Beautiful Soul!!! I have been praying for this! As a 52 year old woman... I am just not able to knock doors for many reason.... but I can definitely make some calls and get people to chip in $5 along side my own $100
Take it from someone who has decided never to donate to another Democratic candidate EVER AGAIN, Deja Foxx is and will be the exception.
A statement as strongly worded as my first sentence requires an explanation. During the 2016 and 2020 campaigns I was very generous toward President Biden’s campaign and several members of Congress. After 2016 all was as before with respect to my text messages and email inbox. That has not been the case since the 2020 campaign. It's CLEAR to me that ActBlue is selling or giving their database of donors to any Democrat who asks/pays for it because I receive ten or more solicitations a day from candidates both local but mostly from out-of -state. This situation has so angered and annoyed me that I automatically type STOP in response to each campaign, no matter who, no matter how critical. There is no doubt I will donate to exceptional candidates in the future however, I am FED UP with ActBlue and will never funnel my donattions through it again.
You should consider joining a fight to repeal Citizens United by imposing enforceable campaign financing laws Once unlimited spending was allowed in elections, Democrats had no choice but to increase asks for donations. Yes Dems have some big money donors but nothing in comparison to Republicans. The GOP is the party of small government, minimal social programs, the private sector, reduced taxation, deregulation etc. These are the policies supported by big business and the oligarchs. So instead of being down on the Democrats, fight to abolish Citizens United.
I appreciate the explanation being constantly solicited for donations is at best annoying, & at worse, distressing, for those on tight budgets.
I’m not down on Democrats, Cindy. I’m down on ActBlue. Its tactics are counterproductive to its purpose in the extreme. It’s not a smart strategy to piss off your donors by burying them in unsolicited text messages and emails from anyone and everyone running for every level of state and federal government regardless of which state they’re in.
As for the Republicans being in favor of deregulation, that’s only partially true. If the regulation protects the air we breathe, the water we drink or the future of the planet, yes, the GOP wants to kill it even if the monetary cost is negligible and businesses are not complaining. If the rules and regs have to do with fairness, worker safety or God Forbid, a workplace that treats people equitably, (at least) tries to reflect the diversity of America then WOW, watch out, they hate that stuff.
Republicans hate anything they can easily demonize with an acronym unless the group that’s perceived to be getting short changed are white evangelicals who think they are Christians (newsflash: they aren’t).
The type of REGULATION one particular Republican absolutely LOVES, and his sycophants in Congress support are TARIFFS. Tariffs are one of the most EXTREME types of regulation because they represent the government’s attempt to manipulate prices. Without free “price discovery”, sellers don’t truly know how much to produce and how much to pay for their inputs. Buyers in turn don’t know the real price they should pay.
In closing, I think you and I are closer than you think on policy and on campaign donations. Citizens United is a different debate for another day. And on that one I’m certain we’re in complete agreement.
If I were to describe how are my email Inboxes clogged by hundreds of thousands Democratic emails, I'd never stop......
And, NOW, I'm getting from the Justice Democrats in my Gmail this re: the what I thought was the first and serious impeach-convict-remove tRumputin articles which, tragically, only shows in what disarray the Democratic Party of USA since the cursed nov. 6th 2024 on has been, copy-pasting - "Vel,
Self-funded multimillionaire Rep. Shri Thanedar, who currently represents Michigan’s 13th District, is misleading colleagues and trying to make himself look like a real Congressman, but only since working-class champion Donavan McKinney announced he’s challenging him.
On the same day as Donavan’s campaign launch, Shri announced that he’s introducing seven articles of impeachment against Donald Trump.
His thinly-veiled, self-interested political stunt backfired and his colleagues in Congress were furious. Not only did he sign up members of Congress as co-sponsors without asking, but he even suggested he had the backing of Democratic Party leadership when he didn’t
Tweet by Andrew Solender: Some House Dems are furious and think this is clearly connected to his contested Dem primary. “This is a self-own,” said one. Another said it “seems self-serving.” His use of official funds for a billboard “has everyone upset,” said a senior Dem.
Multiple Democrats who signed onto his rogue impeachment push have since withdrawn, and one anonymous Democrat told Axios, “It seems self-serving and not a genuine effort to rein in the president."
To make matters worse, Shri wasted official congressional funds to pay for billboards in his district promoting his impeachment stunt. We can’t say we’re surprised: his office was already plagued with accusations of poor constituent services, and he was even sued for fraud as a businessman.
This man tried to call Donavan — who has served more time in the State Legislature than Shri did before running for Congress — "inexperienced,” when his colleagues don't even trust him on something as monumental as impeachment.
Shri is not a serious Congressman, and the people of MI-13 deserve way better. Help us give them a progressive, working-class leader who will truly fight for them: split $5 or more to Justice Democrats and Donavan’s campaign now!
Contribute $5
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats" (unquote)
WHO'S F..KING WHO IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF USA IN THESE DAYS WHEN IT SHOULD BE THE MOST UNITED AND COHESIVE THAN EVER??????
Edward, Thank you for your thoughtful reply and clarification, re: ActBlue.
I fully agree with your comments on Republicans and regulation\tariffs although I've always thought of tariffs as a tax. Tariffs have a a function under certain circumstances. Those circumstances were not in play in the successful, burgeoning economy the Biden administration bequeathed to Trump. Trump's tariff gambit is a product of his dangerous, uncontrollable, malignant narcissism. He actually said, 'I run the country and I run the world.' His tariffs are a demonstration of that pathetic, demented belief. It's like an animal marking its territory. Bend the knee to me or else. Much praise to those who are saying, 'No, thank you'.
That said, the number of Americans who did not vote in the 2024 election remains a threat to democracy. We need to think about how to meet this issue head on. Voters must have a reason to vote, a reason to believe that their vote matters and a reason to believe it is their civic duty to vote. As citizens, we vote in return for the benefits citizenship confers. That captures the main issue at hand for the Democrats. What are the benefits that will build and solidify that voter commitment? That discussion includes a discussion on the ability of capitalism, as it now stands, to create a society grounded in the principle of equality - it's ability to achieve the ideal that what we wish for ourselves, we wish for us all.
Fantastic food for thought. I don’t recall ever getting a response or reading a post on any platform as intelligent, as well informed and as comprehensive as your’s above. If I were to attempt to carry on the conversation here and now, and I very much want to, it will have to wait until tomorrow evening as I’ve got to get some sleep in preparation for an arduous day tomorrow. Sleep well yourself.
Thank you for your kind words.
Thank you for your kind words.
Sounds like a young AOC. Two strong young women with Bernie Sanders sound pretty much like a winning bunch!!
What an awesome person. I donate to politicians in other states that need support. Girl, you have this seniors support from MO (MO-04 - with my non-rep being Alford). You are what this country needs. Fresh faces, new ideas. Please stay away from lobbyists.
And this one from Florida!!
Go Ms. Foxx. I am in District 6, just below you, but will be rooting for you.
I am from Arizona this young lady went to El Salvador Go Girlfriend
That's wonderful of her. Bet no republiCRAPS (especially those who love dump) would ever go there. They should be required to go.....so should dump.
Do it, Deja! Let her SHOW us how it’s done.
Is Deja on BlueSky yet?
Another young, intelligent, feisty and principled woman to join the ranks of AOC and Crockett. Brains, brawn, beauty-- America needs you!
So intelligent, so knowledgeable…so needed! Best of luck Deja!
From half way around the world and a 73 year old male - Go Deja Foxx. If I was in your area I’d be voting for you. Bring in the young people. We need you everywhere!!!
Good woman — don’t give up. Best of luck. We need you!
Blessings, Ms. Foxx! I’m so proud of you desire purpose and passionate action!!!!! Lead is right into success and justice!!!!!
Deja, you are a sharp young lady! Hang in there, I hope you are elected, if not, please keep fighting and try again. We need young, sharp people like you in the Democratic Party!
We need more people like Deja Foxx to continue to run for public offices!! She conveys the strength and sincerity that we all need to see more of!! Thank you Meidas Touch for bringing her on!
🇺🇸🇺🇸🖐️🖐️HANDS OFF!!🇺🇸🇺🇸💪💪ELBOWS UP!!🇨🇦🥰🇺🇸🇺🇸💙💙💙💙
She is so inspiring! I'm so gratified to hear from a young person who is excited for our country's future. Articulate, smart and doing the work! * A side note ... BEN your camera needs to be steady!!! It was so distracting, moving all over the place, please fix that.
Nice to see a young intelligent woman representing the Democrats. What a difference from the dance videos from the young women who represent Trump & can’t answer the simplest question.
Hello Deja!! Welcome to Meidas Touch. So glad you are here!
TIME FOR THE YOUNG . I AM 82 BUT YOUNG IN SPIRIT FOREVER
Glad she is running in my state and I will get to vote for her!
How awesome, we need thousands more like her.
In every square inch of the United States of America.
We all need to lead by her example, and take a wreaking ball to dismantle and destroy what the Silent GOP is allowing to continue, and impeach and prison is waiting for them.
They have poisoned our government, now we fight to regain it all back !
I am so proud of this young woman. We need so many more like her. Thank you. Deja. I am 66 years old and am so happy when I see young people at rallies. Stay strong Deja. "Do the things you think you cannot do." Eleanor Roosevelt
I am sending here a donation now on actblue
Same! 🙏🏼
Wow, wow, wow. I wish I could move to Tucson just to vote for her! She is exactly what the Democratic Party needs. I’ll do what I can for her from right here in Minnesota.
Why not do a phone bank with volunteers from around the country to mobilize voters. That is what the Wisconsin Democrats did in the election for supreme court judge against Elon musk and it really worked. You don’t need a lot of money. You could get help from wisdems Wisconsin Democrats and Swing Left to recruit volunteers. Please do it. Many of us don’t have $5 or ability to do door to door but there are people willing to make phone calls. But train them well first on the issues.
Good luck!
Thanks for the Canada PM just crushed Trump--never for sale!
Deja is one classy lady! We need more like her and DEFINITELY more of her generation to participate in politics. It's THEIR future and they won't have one if the trumpliCRAPS stay in power. I wish her the best.
Deja! You go! 💪🏼
We live in Oregon and Deja is a great candidate. 💙💙💙💙
Way to go Deja!!! You are right about the AZ Dem party they wouldn’t support Quacy Smith to beat Gosar. It was sooooo disappointing. I’m going to find you & support you.
🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸💙🥰
The jerks in the Trump regime don't know what it's like to live paycheck to paycheck
Even if I miss it live I will watch it later! You go girl!
Even when people can't watch live, like me, viewing after has a big impact as well. That's the beauty of the MTN Substack and YouTube. 😊
I’m 67 now and I feel that these young progressives are the hope and prayer for a better future in America! 💙
She is incredible. I just turned 73 and agree we need more young talent and great messengers in our party. As an older American we need to pass the torch to a younger generation who will be dealing with the actually realities facing us. Climate change, housing, good paying jobs, etc.,etc.
Deja and other brilliant young women in politics terrify DJT and his sycophants. I love this!! I am so proud to support candidates like Deja. This is the future of our country! Keep fighting. We are with you!!
Really a fantastic story - now I know!! Love the new young progressive energy and especially from a gal who experienced the hardships herself. ❤️ May Deja be blessed with success!!!
Thank you Deja Foxx for your courageous move forward. I will pray for you all the way.
Go get them Deja!!! We need young blood, that wants a Constitution and Democracy for all.
Thank you Deja Foxx. Your interview started my Thursday morning off with hope and happiness. Best wishes for a win. Always know you are a winner no matter the outcome of this particular election.
I'm from Michigan. I'm donating. We do need younger people in Congress. You go Deja!
I missed it live but OMG. I've been saying for a long time, we need youth and she is clearly so bright and wise!
Let's get Brett a stand for his cell phone... where do we send those donations? LOL
Brothers you look distracted
What election is July 15 and who are voting? I live in Tucson 6th congressional district
Brett, set that damn phone down. You're making me seasick
I hope and pray Deja Foxx wins, because my state of Arizona needs her in Congress very badly. But the Democratic Party has got to start doing so much better of a job on messaging communicating, and staying in touch with their own constituents all of the time! the Dems all must go into all of these red and purple districts holding townhall meetings press conferences showing up on Fox news and other news networks every single day!! telling the public of what their plans are and how the damage that Trump Musk Vance their administration all caused can be immediately fixed!!! all Dems must come up with excellent secret plans or strategies;) they all should stop bending the knee, they all should stop being afraid hopeless and weak, the Democratic Party it's time that all of you guys grow a bigger spine and backbone!" stop being nice to Trump Vance Musk MAGA GOP including some or most Democrats. Start getting even more louder aggressive every single day. Start really focusing on flipping seats in all 50 states blue or deep blue,) have excellent secret plans or strategies keep on resisting never give an inch. Start getting even more serious. Listen to all of yours and other constituents not just in your blue districts.
Republicans have rallies year round it’s announced constantly. They’re constantly raising money and it’s constantly in the people’s concienceness! not the same for Democrats.
And there is another young fabulous democrat in Royal Oak Michigan. Look her up… Last. NAME MALLORY
Deja! Who else should we connect with, follow, and uplift? Who do you endorse?
I'm from Arizona and still spend 4 months a year there. We need people like you. Stay empowered, Arizona needs you.
What an impressive young candidate! I want to move to Arizona to be able to vote for her!
What an impressive dynamo!!
Thanks for highlighting her.
If only we could clone her into the red parts of Oregon…🙏🏼💙
I want to see this woman's story in one piece so I can spread it around1. Thanks fro much or the info on her website. Thanks so much for airing this interview!!!!!!!!!!!
omg, a great candidate!!!!!
She should talk with AOC.
So glad to learn about Deja. I’ve been looking for the young Dems here. What an impressive leader!
Love you guys!!
Sounds like to me. We need Deja Foxx and more like her.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Deja Foxx! What an inspirational LIGHT you are in this dark tRump world. I know I speak for many of us seniors when I say we WELCOME you with open arms and are beyond excited to see you and other young people stepping up to defeat the axis of evil that Republican'ts have created. I know you can (silly pun forthcoming) outFoxx them and win, not only your race but also the respect of all the nay-sayers!
Stagnant policy and putting there heads down to wait out tRump? will not work. We need and want fighters not the status quo. Status quo is what got us here in the now. We need experience and we need younger fighters and more Bernie Sanders and less wait and see 👀.
Great introduction to a real breath of fresh air, Deja Foxx! SHE and those like her are exactly what the Democratic party (and the country) overall NEED!!! Happy to donate to such a hard worker who has good ideas and is willing to do the real grass roots (door knocking, etc) in order to get things DONE.
How refreshing to see someone like you going for it. One of my musings/grumblings in the last few years has been…. I don’t get it, why aren’t more young people getting involved. Aren’t they sick of the aging population of politicians making decisions that affect their lives for years and years. You answered my why…we make it difficult if not impossible for them to run and make their voices heard. You go girl!! I look forward to being able to vote for you in the future when you are running on an even bigger stage. Stay true, stay strong, and give it your all. 🙌👍🏼❤️
Thank you so much for this interview! I thought I was pretty well up-to-date on candidates and races that affect my area and that of my extended family. I was born in Bisbee, AZ, 84 years ago, and as a child moved to San Diego County, CA - so a true southwesterner, but my radar didn't pick her up. Hopefully, this exposure will be beneficial! I've had family in and around Tucson all my life. I'll be in touch with them and pointing them toward Deja Foxx and this campaign.
Arizona voucher program is a disaster costing taxpayers far more after the failure of privatized education.
Bravo to Deja for running for office. We need the next generation to jump in and get trained in Congressional procedures and contributing to the change of the Status Quo by those like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Cory Booker, etc. 🎉
Great podcast. The two brothers need to learn from the young, talented lady at least one thing: do not appear like you are going through either earthquake or Parkinson disease. Stay STATIONARY. Brett eventually got it. Ben never did. Please appear more professional like Deja did. Going to contribute to her campaign now. Democrats like Harris did speak to people but people had closed ears and brain. Finally racism and bigotry won.
YOU GO GIRL. I LOVE Your enthusiasm and appreciate that you are willing to put "it all out there" for us and democracy. Would that I could vote for you (I live in PHX). Sign me up to phone bank.
What an incredible young woman. What breath of fresh air. And your ideas of reaching people by listening and relating to their daily life needs.
I read something about shifting how we reach people and can make an impact...I'd like to share / repeat it here.
• Keeping the focus on working people and families as drivers of the economy
• Adhering to a strategically neutral tone through curated details and facts that present “both sides”
• Elevating widely-accepted ideas like simplifying the tax system and eliminating loopholes
• Equipping and amplifying messengers who can demonstrate credibility and wholesome motivations for delivering their message such as (but not limited to) supporters who identify as wealthy themselves, community-oriented financial coaches and experts, and/or faith-based messengers.
• Helping audience members manage their own discomfort around finance and realize their own agency
Courageous lady. What a warrior.
Is there any other way to contribute to a candidate (like YOU) without using ActBlue?
I have never trusted ActBlue.
Why don't the Dems get with at least collecting $$$
First, I want to say to all; please donate to this young woman!
I am so happy to meet you Deja Foxx, we need so many more young people with your energy and commitment to a better future. I am 68 and am protesting weekly, I hope you can encourage young people to join the many protests happening daily around the country.
It is very noticeable that they young people and middle aged are missing at these many rallies/protests.
81 old white woman and it's great to hear from you. I'm in California and it's great to get young people involved. 💙🇺🇸💙
Young people like Deja Foxx gives me hope for the democracy and the future. I support similar candidates that are not running for money, prestige, or power and rely on small donations to run their campaigns. If we don't want the wealthy controlling our government, then we need to get big money out of politics.
So glad to hear about you, Deja!! From a boomer from NY. I love seeing young progressives!! Best wishes.
"While Trump and his cronies are busy crashing the economy, gutting social services, and partying with Proud Boys, Deja is out knocking doors in the Arizona" Worst is yet to come. Donald "The Beast" Trump is building a wall once again. Colossal tariff wall that is the beginning of the end for the system of down. At first the beast will pull the plug out of the global economy. The worst financial crisis of human history will pull a swarm of the banks underwater and the bank run begins. Then the beast will collapse a mountain of debt shattering the backbone of the monetary system causing a systemic risk to realize. Finally the beast will cast American citizens into a system slavery under the name of Ronald Wilson Reagan, just to "honor his legacy" count the number. After the destruction a new world order will be established in the US. And the Golden Age begins from the ruins of the world wide collapse. All of the system slaves will love it. No more cash - just digital transactions. No more traditional criminal activity. No more tax evasion. No more transactions without the "all seeing eye". Outcasts will hate the world without freedom, hope and privacy. To cover up the mess and distract the public by smoke and mirrors, the beast will engage in a war with Iran. Lies and deceit, corruption and decay, dancing on the graves will continue. Until; Black hole sun, won't you come, won't you come... I want to play a game. Time has come to opt out of the empire of filth. Live or die...
What is this democratic candidates' positions on the genocide in the Middle East and sending tax money to pay for weapons to Israel? Does she accept money from AIPAC? Kamala Harris is a Zionist and supports genocide and she lost votes because of this. The position on genocide is critical, not only for humanitarian reasons, not only for US citizen's tax reasons, but because what is done to Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank can and will be done to Americans--it already is being done to US citizens and immigrants. Gen Z and many of us older voters care deeply about this issue and we know when we're being gaslighted or when it's just political "talk." What is your stance? And Medias, what is your stance?
❤️ this young advocate and hope she wins! But, she will not be the first Gen Z to be elected to Congress. Maxwell Frost is the first.
How refreshing you are, Deja Foxx. I'm thrilled to see young, motivated people making their way into the Democratic party. I can just see you in a couple of years making strides and shining like a rising star.
Deja Foxx. Extremely Impressive!!!
We need many more young Democrats to participate. She will go far........................
Ms Foxx...please get on BlueSky so people learn about you and start spreading the word!
what's with the wiggley cameras bros !? you go girl !
I remember when Wilbur Mills and FANNY FOXX shook up DC.
The Planned Fascist Takeover
“We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity. Our movement is Christian.” Adolph Hitler 1928
It’s clear that Hitler’s Mein Kampf and Goebbels have a substantial influence on the current US Nazi party of the 21st century as well as Orban’s Hungary to serve as a model as to how to get the Christian Nationalist Party(CNP) over the finish line before 2026 midterms
The Nazis want to destroy all things that conservatives don’t have control over Not only attack university endowments but also go after the private sector and make them “feel economic pain” The Nazis feel that the country is in late republican period(meaning the final days of a democratic republic) This link from the Maddow show exposes the intent of the current Nazi regime https://bit.ly/3BrXePA
The Nazi party currently occupying the White House has set the agenda As JD Vance has said “we need to burn it all down and start over”
So this is where we are folks Feel like protesting now???
The only parasite class - who don't pay taxes are the billionaires.
They hoard money, they don't pay a living wage, they turn working class into slaves.
Tax the rich!!
The billionaires don't want more money, they want ALL the money.
The evil greedy billionaires need the working class.
The working class DO NOT need billionaire parasites.
I enjoyed meeting this young lady and wish her a win in July. If she can pull together the grass roots movement that's needed, it can happen. One thing, though. I think that the issues she mentioned WERE the Gen Z issues many Dems were also talking about, and some were also the issues that the orange one talked about. Somehow, though the issues were the same, the importance of character of a candidate didn't make the cut when choosing who to vote for. That perplexes me. Are younger people not educated that character counts, and that it's not what you say but what you do that's more important? Is that why they voted for tramp? In any case, I'd love to have a candidate with her obvious intelligence and fire in my district.
A fresh, new face!! Love it.
i Love this young woman!!!!
Hi Deja. I just wanted to say that I think you're wonderful. Your message is strong and inspiring. Not just in the US but also here in Canada and throughout the world. At 25 years old, you are well positioned to take on the problems of today and help lead our society in the next decade. Great job. Elbows up. Love from Canada 🇨🇦❤️
I Loved the this interview! Thank you for giving Deja Foxx this platform to make her case for becoming a member of the House. I went to her website and contributed to her campaign in spite of not living in AZ. She is what the Democratic Party needs!!
ok how to f...k...with chump . cut him off of the TV !!!! just don't show his face as you report the honest news to america ... CUT HIM OFF ....!!!!!...ego monkey will go nut's !!
Young progressive disrupters- run and I will vote.
Love all of this. May you find success and show the rest of the US how to do this. People's power is the way to create a country for all people.
I am a Gen X woman and a resident of Tucson, AZ. It's refreshing to see a candidate like Deja Foxx. Just donated to her campaign and I will be voting for her. She has my full support! 🙂
I am so impressed with Deja Foxx. On my way to donate!❤️
Considering how many Hispanic constituents you have in your district, what have you done to communicate with them and discover what their concerns are?
Wow! What a powerhouse! I would vote for her if I could. Will definitely donate.
This young woman is an inspiration! You Go Deja Foxx! You go! Yes!
Brett: your screen is wiggling. Please calm it down, hold still!
When the next generation of the Democratic Party is as smart, articulate and engaging as Deja, there is hope. What we need is for the establishment of the party to empower and put the next generation in office and important positions, and not stand in the way and pass over young people based on seniority. The last election shows a significant shift of young people towards the GOP; the Dems need to win back young people.
schumer is a Republican mole. Only does just enough to get a paycheck. He needs ta go
Just want to say thanks to everyone and thier very hard work and dedication to the Meidas Network. Next this is a sad time,when our country is under attack from an authoritarian like Trump and his misfit Junta,but where are all those other media outlets.,Where is a great stand up for American values from ABC,CBS,and NBC,where they show the dangers of a president trying to regulate and seize control of power of the press? Where are all the special reports and the banding together of values,when someone tells you the US Constitution is just a piece of paper,everyone should be mad,everyone should see the administration is targeting your freedom of the press. They don't have a lot of time to change things,and now already I get most of my news and politics from podcasts instead of the usual services,and thats because we get less truth and more fluff from what used to be mainstream media.
