In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children. We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread. www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-m...

At some point very soon, republicans in Congress will have to choose between pleasing Trump to avoid being primaried, and helping their constituents to avoid being primaried.

Donald Trump chose to waste millions of taxpayer dollars spending the afternoon at the Daytona 500—while multiple states are devastated by severe flooding, and over 10 people are reportedly dead. Absolutely sickening.

Trump’s Inflation Hypocrisy is Off the Charts Trump swore he’d immediately lower prices. Instead, inflation jumped 3% in January, up from 2.4% in September—on his watch. His response? Blame Biden. But when markets soared under Biden, he took credit. So which is it? The internet isn’t buying it.

Yes. But they are missing that much of this has to be performative. That’s what Trump is great at and Dems are awful at. You can’t just tell voters , you have to know how to sell voters. Trump gives sales pitches, Dems show charts. One goes viral. The other is ignored and forgotten

They don’t care. They never did. The rich keep their buffer, the poor stay exhausted, and the system keeps grinding. They call the elderly & disabled ‘drains’ and the workers ‘replaceable.’ They promise heaven while hoarding Earth. Time to stop being shocked—time to wake up.

Putting RFK Jr in charge of our nation’s health is like putting Jeffrey Epstein in charge of child safety.

Yes think about how judges are supposed to decide if things the president does are constitutional, and why the richest man in the world who just bought the election might not be into that.

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
