I keep seeing posts talking about how Grijalva is the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. That is not correct. She is the 218th " Yes " to have a vote ,about having a vote ,to release the Epstein files. Don't just repeat shit that is not true. It will be fun to get a name on the actual vote.

Spread this around. Missouri and Ohio Democrats need at least 100,000 valid signatures to take on Republican gerrymandering maps. This is the fight 🔥

MO & OH Dems need us to help Rally support!

A commissioned poll shows nearly 1/2 of MO voters oppose the maps

The Dem committee needs over 100,000 valid signatures across multiple congressional districts before the state’s 90-day window expires on Dec. 11 to let voters decide on the maps.

Missouri Democrats have an opportunity to block a new congressional map. They say they’re largely on their own.

Despite relatively little investment from Washington, Missouri and Ohio Democrats are looking to block new Republican-drawn maps through uncertain avenues.

If you have the Phrase NeverAOC in your bio. I am going to block you. We may both be against the fascists. But we are not friends.

That is the minimum I expect from any real news agency. Call them out on the BS.

Except when Trump bankrupts them with tariffs. Then she will say nothing except for asking the rest of the country for welfare to bail them out.

There's no "regular politics" anymore because you can no longer maintain the idea that we all agree on common goals but we only differ about the means of getting there or whatever. The guys in charge now are plainly amoral, sadistic nihilists. They delight in it! You can't civilly disagree with that
