If your reaction to Joe Biden being diagnosed with cancer is to double down on criticizing him and the party, you need to go outside, touch some grass, and re-evaluate your life choices.

Why has Kid Rock not been arrested for obstructing ICE arrests after his restaurant sent undocumented workers home last week so they wouldn’t be swept up in an ICE raid, but Judge Dugan directing a man through a different door is a federal offense?

BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts. Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

Boycotts WORK! Target dismantled their DEI programs — a betrayal to communities they claimed to uplift. The people responded with boycotts, leading to their CEO losing 45% of his annual income. Don’t let up now, pressure is building! Some alternatives: 🌱 Small/Local Businesses 🌱 Farmers Markets

Big news in North Carolina: A federal judge (appointed by Trump) has handed a major loss to Republican Jefferson Griffin, who's trying to overturn November's supreme court race. The judge, Richard Myers, ordered North Carolina's Board of Elections to certify Democratic Justice Allison Riggs's win.
