The fact that Fort Worth Texas has a back log of over 900 rape kits they 'don't have time' to test, but Texas Sheriffs did have the time to spend a month tracking a woman who MIGHT have been going out of state for an abortion tells you all you need to know about what Texas thinks about women..

Trump just nominated Paul Ingrassia to run the Office of Special Counsel. Ingrassia is a former far-right podcast host and election denier who once shared an article calling for “martial law” to keep Donald Trump in office following his loss in the 2020 election. He's 29.

“Is this a roundabout, backdoor way of privatizing public education?” 💯 AZ’s universal voucher program was never truly intended to help AZ students – the goal is, and always has been, to funnel money to private schools that lack the oversight & accountability of public schools.

DOGE claimed 40% of SSA phone calls were fraud. After digging through 110,000 of them, they found just two. Not 2,000... two, and they were just flagged as 'possible fraud'. DOGE’s $160B “savings” actually cost taxpayers $135B, meaning the fraud hunt cost much more than it saved.

This tax proposal is far more expensive than the $2.5 trillion estimate. Usually these budget estimates look at a 10 year window. Here, the expensive provisions expire in 4 years to manipulate that window. The actual 10 year cost if the provisions are then extended is more than $5 trillion.
