Its called taxation without representation- When President Elon and VP Trump threaten the Reps elected to REPRESENT each of us into compliance; it takes our individual constitutional rights of representation away! What would a 2024 Boston Tea party protest look like? Teslas in the bay?

So now that the Supreme court has once again sided with republicans in the Texas redistricting gerrymandered maps, does it mean SCOTUS has no basis to take up the republican challenge to California's maps? @marcelias.bsky.social @maddow.bsky.social

Bravo to this priest that is pointing out the obvious to the so called "Christians" of Heritage Foundation, Federalist, and Napa institute.

Dolan must be blowing up the arch bishop of that diocese's phone trying to pressure, threaten to get that display taken down.

Trump rolls back mileage rules saying it will bring down price of cars.
1) Republican Tariffs raised prices on cars.
2) Fact, the more hybrid and electric cars means less demand for oil; lowers price of oil
3)Republicans want gas guzzling cars to help line pockets of their billionaire oil buddies
Trump proposal would weaken vehicle mileage rules that limit air pollution
President Donald Trump has announced a proposal to weaken vehicle mileage rules for the auto industry.

WATCH: “It’s important not to learn the wrong lessons.”

Kanew on #TN7 + why those saying a more corporatist/centrist candidate would outperform @aftynbehn.bsky.social are getting it wrong and wouldn’t generate the same excitement as her populist affordability anti-corruption message.

Vote for Aftyn Behn. This is a person that walks the talk. She doesn't look for big corporate money to communicate [their] message. Instead she meets and greets the people where they are. She listens to the people she wants to represent. She is putting in the time and work.
VOTE FOR THE CANDIDATE THAT WILL WORK TO EARN YOUR VOTE

Tomorrow is election day, TN-7, and I'm humbly asking for your vote. I promise to be accessible and only beholden to the voters of the district, never donors or special interests. Polls open at 7 AM & close at 7 PM. Let's go out and win this!

Elected republicans need to step up and stop Trump from starting a war with Venezuela. Congress has the power to stop this. Johnson is just sitting around with his thumb up his arse while is head is shoulder deep up Trump's
Since Trump said he was deporting immigrants because they are criminals and drug dealers, he has brought in 17 family members of notorious cartel leader "El Chapo", accused trafficker/rapist Andrew Tate, is pardoning the Honduran drug trafficker, and has pardoned hundreds of convicted criminals

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

1) If the republicans pass voter suppression bill they have planned, women will need proof of name change/marriage certs etc to register to vote.

2)The republicans are already proving that everyone is at risk of detainment. Having passport cards for you/your children will help your defense
Everyone should get their passports now including passport ID cards even for their children.

To good people; please start a funding program to help lower income people afford the costs of passports.

Women, get copies of certified marriage certificates, name changes etc...
