I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

Section 2 of the 15th Amendment explicitly delegates to Congress the right to decide how to enforce Black voting rights. That's what the text says. And that's the original intent of the framers.

Welch: Mike Johnson-If he's a big Christian, he should be fighting for the marginalized, fighting for the poor. But instead he weaponizes his faith to lure voters in and then dicks him over every chance he gets.

We can’t pay air traffic controllers during the shutdown, making us less safe, but we can send $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

Make it make sense.

I guess "originalism" can fuck right off, as far as this SCOTUS is concerned.

Look at the profile; this is from a Southern White guy.

Donald Price @donaldwprice.bsky.social · 1h

The people who enacted the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments would be *stunned* to learn that they had outlawed efforts to protect the rights of Black people, especially because White people needed equal protection.

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

Sanders: Saturday, millions of people are going to come out on a No Kings day. Speaker Johnson said this is a hate America rally because people are coming out expressing their concerns.. It’s not a hate America rally, it's a love America rally.

All the press reporters have handed in their press badges to the Pentagon, even Fox propaganda News handed in their press badges. The regime is losing control. We the People are fighting back. The regime is going to increase the violence to try to get us back down. Don't stop the resistance.

Something's Gotta Give hasn't had a physical media release since 2004, on DVD. I'd say we're due for a Blu-ray upgrade.

So,
- $20,000,000,000 going to Argentina plus another $20B as a bribe from sovereign wealth funds…
- The Dept of Education cut its special education division…
- The press has been locked out of the Pentagon for the first time in history…
