This Valentines weekend seems like the right time to celebrate a recent breakup. It was a toxic relationship, based on cheap thrills and easy access. There was always the promise of something life-changing, but what was delivered was often pretty shoddy. Yes, I'm talking about Amazon.

Your right to vote is under attack. 🚨 The House may vote next week on the SAVE Act, which would make voter registration harder for 21+ million Americans. This isn’t about security—it’s voter suppression. Call your representative and demand they vote NO on the SAVE Act. Our democracy depends on it.
