Enjoy the right to vote? Registration (including when you move!) will become almost impossible for millions of us, including married women, if the Senate passes this Gawdawful bill. The vote is THIS WEEK! Download the 5 CALLS app and call your senators! www.newsweek.com/married-wome...

Per the FBI's own data, American citizens are 3 times as likely to commit a crime than migrants. They are coming here to work. If Congress would do their damn job and change our immigration laws, we could actually solve the damn problem. Thanks Trump and Republicans, for f***ing nothing.

Paid Russian operative Kash Patel. Need I say more? That pretty much tells you all you need to know about Donald Trump. Of course, Tucker Carlson was key to spreading the lies that Patel spouted for cash. Please share and get the word out. www.facebook.com/share/p/18DP...

They knew exactly what was hiding in the DOGE Trojan Horse. But they invited it in anyway. Thank you, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, for going along with the Musk/Trump plot to overthrow our democracy and shred our Constitution. We owe it all to you. GIFT link: wapo.st/416lHnQ

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Musk's role as a "special government employee" sure smells like Russia's "special military invasion." Let's call it what it is: propaganda.

If this passes, we might as well just throw voting in the can. Please share this with your friends and ask them to contact their members of Congress. No Democrat should even think about voting for this. www.americanprogress.org/article/the-...

AG Pam Bondi is attacking our 1st Amend. right to free speech. She plans to prosecute companies that promote DEIA, saying it violates civil rights law to even promote a diverse workplace. It's the typical Republican weaponization of civil rights law against those it's designed to protect.

Musk's apparent approach to all business and government systems: "Question every requirement, assume that every requirement that anybody ever gives you is dumb. Question it, eliminate it wherever possible." Sounds like a real safe bet for our federal data. EVIL DESPOT! www.cnn.com/2025/02/05/t...

Less than 24 hours after a fatal air crash kills all 67 on board, Trump is asked if he will visit the crash site at the Potomac. He responds by joking about swimming (with the dead). CAN WE IMPEACH HIM YET? HOW MUCH LONGER?! I do NOT feel safe.

Republican Rep. Rich McCormick defended the White House’s federal aid freeze, saying some kids should work instead of receiving free school meals. He claimed that federal aid discourages self-sufficiency and suggested teens work at McDonald’s or Burger King.

Sen. Thom Tillis threw Danielle Hegseth under the bus, telling her that her sworn statement alleging alcohol abuse and abusive behavior could get Republican senators to oppose Hegseth’s nomination as defense secretary. But then Tillis voted to CONFIRM Pete Hegseth. Dirty stinking MAGA Republicans!

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

We need a transcript of his message, especially the end. We need to repeat it daily, especially when we feel exhausted by this violent storm that is the Trump administration.

The Republicans have at least one senator showing some spine. How about a few more? If they don't break with Trump NOW, when the penalty is as minor as losing an election, it will get far worse. Will they have the guts to cross him if it means execution or being hunted down by his militia?

This type of madness kills. People who could have been saved by scientific research will die. For example, when the GOP halted stem cell research, some people with cystic fibrosis died as a result. Fucking with the NIH for partisan gain is cruel. President Trump is a sadist & psychopath.

Whose ready to impeach Trump? He is a psychopathic sadist! I've never seen so much cruelty and so many illegal executive orders and other actions roll out within the first week following inauguration. I realize it's a fantasy now. But I hope he fucks up so bad that Dems sweep it in 2 years. OUT!
