It's hard to describe how dangerous what Texas and Missouri are doing. They are simply trying to steal Congress in the middle of the decade to help Trump. It's about a direct effort of the President to get his allies to ensure voters don't get an equal voice in their representation to preserve power

The Democrats didn’t even want to attempt to expand SCOTUS when Biden was President. This is the difference between Republicans and Democrats. Republicans implement their policy then wait for consequences good or bad. Democrats don’t even fucking try to attempt, they’re too goodie goodie

SOME DEMOCRATS WON’T VOTE TO BAN THEMSELVES FROM TRADING STOCKS. That says it all. The American people deserve representatives who will work for them and who will fight for them 💯 There are plenty of public servants who would be happy with the pay that they earned in the federal Senate and house

Its being done for Project 2025. Heritage Foundation. Originalists. Extreme Christian right. Work that comes from the same white nationalist mentality since the end of the civil war to return the US to what its founders desired and created- a country for wealthy white males. Bigger than trump.

You’re right. The white minority wants the US to be ruled by white people and will do whatever they have to to make that happen. They reject plurality. When someone of color gets ahead it must be at the expense of a white person. This won’t go well down here. Sorrier than you can imagine.

The GOP has gone in completely on Trump's "See If You Can Stop Me" approach to politics. If it CAN be done, it WILL be done, and if it's illegal, they'll force you to take it all the way to SCOTUS to stop it. An entire political party, practicing Trump's legal strategy.
