The American people are smart. They know Democrats are on their side fighting for health care and they know Republicans aren’t.

“If we lost the majority in the house... they will try to end the Trump administration. He won't have 4 years, he'll have only 2–because they will move to impeach him, probably on the first day of the new Congress… and they will try to systematically unwind all [our fascist] reforms.”
Sounds great!

A new era of government censorship has begun.
It started with the silencing of scientific speech, when the admin blocked release of research on bird flu. But MAGA has also cracked down on other wrongthink—on race, geography (!), and of course Trump himself

From the ashes of a deadly pandemic made worse by Trump's first term, Americans had begun to reclaim a sense of safety and progress in the Biden years—until the return of Trump to office plunged the nation instantly back into chaos, unease, and danger. Does anyone feel safe in Trump’s America?

Mockler: What message would you have for Trump?
Warren: Live up to your promise. You ran for office saying you were going to make life better—well then, do it. Renaming the Gulf of Mexico, pardoning people who beat up police officers—that’s not making life better for everyday Americans.
