Ideally, when your country’s on the brink of war, you don’t want a reality TV game show host hyping it like: “Will we bomb them? Will we not? Tune in for the next episode of “Who Wants to Start World War III?”

The U.S. was founded in opposition to monarchy. On June 14th, let's protest Trump's authoritarian takeover and send a peaceful reminder that we do not bow before kings in America. Join No Kings Day protests at nokings.org.

We cannot let Trump hide behind his Big Budget Bill. We must fight each and every provision that threatens democracy and American lives.

As Donny 2 Dolls tries to cut federal funding for PBS, Mr. Rogers' words still ring true. He will never succeed in taking Mr. Rogers away from us.

The VA has abruptly ended the only low-interest, affordable loan modification option for thousands of vets who are behind on their mortgages. If you're a vet at risk of foreclosure, we want to hear your story.

Love the reference

The SAVE Act doesn’t save anything. Its main effect is to make it harder for women to vote, especially those like me who changed our names when we married. Hands Off Her Vote www.digitaldrumbeat.com/p/gop-plan-d...

We need more young, vocal people like Jasmine Crockett and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. I’m so tired of white, old “Yes” men holding office. We need more people like Bernie Sanders, not Mitch McConnell.

My brother is one of those who depend on public assistance. Born w a rare genetic defect & thru no fault of anyone, he needs constant attention & supervision. At age 48 he can’t speak, but oh, his enthusiasm and the joy he brings is a gift like none other. Please sign & don’t leave Daniel neglected.

Coming after telehealth for compromised & old people. These people are dung beetles, feasting on shit.

What tools can aid you in getting your congressional representatives attention? 5 Calls (5calls.org) Resistbot What app can help you vote with your dollars? Goods Unite Us (in the Apple Store it shows as GUU)

If you haven’t used 5 Calls, that green check means I made that call. I did talk to someone in Onder’s office but no freaking Hawley or Schmitt for the SAVE Act. I have YET to talk to anyone in those offices.

3 House bills in progress that have a huge negative impact on women: (1) take away women’s right to vote: www.congress.gov/bill/118th-c... (2) create a national ban on abortion. www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c... (3) prohibit contraception www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

I want to believe this but the polls showed Kamala Harris ahead, too. I will believe this when the swamp is really cleared from the Executive Branch.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.
