Trump demanded Texas and other red states redraw their congressional districts to rig the midterms in Republicans' favor.
California fought back by redrawing its map to balance out this power grab. Now, Trump’s DOJ is suing California.
The hypocrisy is endless.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.
Do not.

The Trump-Musk Regime is reportedly planning to cut as much as 50% of the IRS workforce.
Make no mistake: this will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163 billion a year.

This is the biggest power grab Trump can pursue:
Trying to cut non-citizens out of the census to reduce representative power away from districts that have them. It'd be the first time since slavery that people who live here weren't counted.

But it's okay for America's billionaires to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps.
