Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

REALITY CHECK:

Texas Democrats earn 45% of the vote—but under the GOP’s new gerrymandered map, they’d get just 21% of the seats.

That’s not representation. That’s rigging the system.

🚨One more time, from the beginning:

🚨The Republicans control the White House, House and Senate.

🚨The GOP AUTHORED the abominable bill.

🚨They will own a government shut down-not the Democrats.

🚨 Call your Democratic senators NOW, and demand that they vote NO.

He's received nothing but stellar performance reviews.

Request to progressive media/bloggers: Please do NOT use photos of #47, Musk, Miller, etc. as your featured image for every story.

We've never shared their images in our feed, nor will we.

If you write about the harm they do, then feature people they impact & who resist. Don't give hate free PR.
