Let's talk about the midterms.

ICE is terrorizing and punishing blue states and cities to suppress your votes using fear from ICE- yes it's already started.

Blue states need to wake up and have a plan to deploy the National Guard to protect polling stations & voters from the federal government!

Dear Republicans,

Trump makes Richard Nixon look like a boy scout.

How much damage will you allow the felon to impose on the United States of America.

It’s GO TIME for our friends in Tennessee!

@aftynbehn.bsky.social has done a remarkable job making this incredibly gerrymandered district competitive. Republicans have dropped millions to stop a social worker from having a seat in their dysfunctional Congress.

Turnout today!

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov!

Americans gave you a clear assignment last Tuesday, and you didn’t understand it.

Now, we are giving you another one: Step down and allow a Democrat with a spine to unite your caucus for the good of all Americans.

Remember what you told Biden? Now, tell it to yourself.

🚨🚨Important heads up for voters everywhere:

Drop your completed mail in ballots in the mail before the Election Day deadlines if you can, to ensure your vote is counted.
Your ballot or other mail may not get postmarked by USPS the day it's dropped off
Close to a deadline for mailing your ballot, tax return or legal document? To make sure it gets a postmark on time under the latest USPS changes, you may want to send it early or visit a post office.
