Between 1998 and 2024, gun rights groups spent $233.7 million on lobbying the United States Congress.

playing dress up. So immature - and that's putting it nicely.

74 and ditto. I hope it can turn around during my lifetime. Silly me, for years I was thinking we could have a woman president, now I’m wishing even harder that we can somehow turn all this around before it’s too late and more people suffer worldwide because of this self serving administration.

Wittman purposefully sows disinformation across #VA01. His latest post is a prime example. Here's why. 1/🧵

I’m sorry but this is not true. We have a responsibility to be truthful with our constituents. He voted for health care cuts and to close hospitals. That’s a fact. The worst part of the Trump Era is the shamelessness with which politicians mislead voters.

Wittman says ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ will make no significant cuts to Medicaid and Medicare services in his district

U.S. Congressman Rob Wittman (R-VA-01) reiterated his support for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act at a press conference last week following a business roundtable in Mechanicsville, saying the bill will...

and I am keeping copies of his statements so that I can call him out when it all heads south. I am so disappointed in him and other Republicans who can't seem to think for themselves or of the consequences to their constituents. Burying head in sand is not what they were elected to do.

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.
