Don’t let them lie to you!
The GOP controls the House, Senate, and White House.

If the government shuts down, it's because they chose to shut it down rather than pass a budget that serves the American people. #TrumpsHealthCareShutdown

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Oregon AG Rayfield: The first thing that might’ve told you the federal government wasn’t doing so hot was when they started off some of their arguments by talking about Truth Social as their source of facts.

Actually got a comment from the judge: “Is this really how you’re going to move forward?”

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.
