For all those wanting to walk the line on Kirk, I can only help but wonder how you'd feel if his Turning Point group had attempted to void your most sacred right as a citizen - your vote - as they did mine, and over 1,500,000 Arizonans in 2020.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Greene sure is getting a lot of attention for standing up against a child trafficking/rape ring.

Something normal people ARE EXPECTED TO DO.

She opined on healthcare entirely because it impacts her family, and the constituents she hopes will vote for her.

Republicans have promised us a replacement healthcare plan for 15 years now.

Schumer believes them this time though.

A U.S. Army garrison in Germany’s largest state briefly offered community members seeking food aid amid the government shutdown an online referral to German public resources.

The list of five German support organizations was removed sometime Wednesday.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

The Trump administration has reportedly made the decision to attack military installations inside Venezuela and strikes could come at any moment.

The planned attacks will seek to destroy military installations used by the drug-trafficking organization the U.S. says is headed by Nicolás Maduro.

When someone tells you - for 15 years - they're going to do something, then they suddenly say, no I'm not going to do that, why would you even consider bargaining with them again?

This is the reality of healthcare in the US.

Growing up before the Internet, we had to beg our parents to take us to libraries, museums or other locations we could learn from.

Seems so quaint now.

We could've just waited for a politician or partisan cable to tell us what to think.

This dark time should wake us up to the bankruptcy of the corporate Democratic Party. It should mark the birth of the people’s Democratic Party. Zohran Mamdani and others like him are its future. Some thoughts...

Let’s be blunt: this is taxation without representation.

That’s why, today, alongside Congresswoman-elect Grijalva, we sued the House of Representatives.

Mike Johnson won't swear in Adelita Grijalva. So we're suing.
Arizona's attorney general explains how Johnson is using the newly elected Democrat as a pawn in his shutdown fight, and keeping the Epstein files secret.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has instructed staff to allow hunting in many of the roughly 600 National Wildlife Refuges, three employees said, as President Trump continues to direct select parts of the government to ignore the shutdown.

Something else that has never happened before in American history, as the Trump admin continues to piss on the Bill of Rights while Republicans in Congress continue to remain silent. Another thing to protest on Saturday.
