America keeps flunking the civics test. Trump ran as a convicted criminal and still won votes by pretending COVID was Biden’s invention. When ignorance is a campaign strategy, policy doesn't stand a chance. #AreWeGreatYet #LowInformationVoters

Wish she would spend 1/10th the time acting on behalf of her constituents here in the Lowcountry as she does promoting herself. She clearly needs therapy.

The president tried to defund one of the world’s top universities because it wouldn’t submit to his will. But sure, tell me again how the real threat to free speech is “wokeness” on campus. #AreWeGreatYet #RuleOfLaw

The massive “One Big Beautiful Bill” passed the House with a single vote last week. That bill now faces a tough road in the Senate. They are demanding DEEPER poison pill spending cuts & restrictions on Federal Courts. Now is the time to SAY NO to harming democracy. (202) 224-3121 @lwvus.bsky.social

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

Memorial Day isn’t just about burgers and barbecues — it’s about honoring those who gave everything so we can live free. Take a moment to remember. Then go ahead and enjoy your weekend. That’s what they fought for adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/what-memor...

Start every day with this reality: EVERY HOUSE SEAT and 33 Senate seats are up for election in 2026. THAT must be the focus. Let’s get disciplined. #LeaveNoPowerOnTheTable ballotpedia.org/United_State...
