BREAKING: We secured a court order requiring the State Dept to preserve & account for Signal messages of senior national security officials, including Sec. Marco Rubio. This is an important step to force accountability for an admin that’s shown alarming disregard for transparency required by law.

Member of Congress Tom McMillen was with Trump and Epstein in that photo. He is potentially a witness to the Epstein crimes.

The entire Trump administration are easily fooled. They are naive, inexperienced and insufficiently knowledgeable about the areas where they need to be experts. Easily manipulated, like Trump, and making mistake after mistake! This is what MAGAs voted for!

If you’re trying to make it harder for people to vote, stop pretending to give a shit about democracy. Every American - regardless of their political views - deserves to have their voice heard.

The mid-decade redistricting push is going to backfire on the GOP. It feels dirty and desperate, and it stinks of losing. Only a party that knows it's looking defeat in the face does this, and it's obvious.

Ok folks, we need more concrete resistance actions! Complaining is falling on deaf ears! Resistance is being legislated out of existence especially at the state level! Immunity for running over legal protestors is a step too far! Slow down, limit spending, avoid republican owned businesses.

Two thirds of Americans are being dictated to by a one-third minority and we are not doing enough to stop it. Before it’s too late we must resist to our maximum capacity! Posting on X, for e.g., is spitting into the wind-meaningless distraction. We must overwhelm dictatorship with physical presence.

I pledge not to fly Avelo Airlines — Until Avelo ends its contract with ICE, I’ll work in my community to cut their subsidies, end their partnerships, and pressure their leadership to make sure no company can profit from tearing families apart without consequence.

The issue is rooted in disenfranchisement and distrust—faith in democracy lost, replaced by a dictator who exploits those feelings with lies and false hope. As long as the propaganda suits them, they’ll comply. Only anarchy remains.

Apparently, inflation is bad, but we must impose tariffs to raise the cost of cheap imports so people buy expensive American goods. We can re-shore manufacturing, but to be cost competitive, we have to fully automate factories, replacing American workers with robots.
