What if the media just stopped? A total blackout No Trump stories. No White House drama for 1 week.
Instead, flood the airwaves with stories of laid-off workers, families torn apart by ICE, communities fighting to survive. Farmers losing their livelihoods.
America is hurting—and we deserve coverage.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.
Pay attention and act!

The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.
And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.
This is not about politics. It's about people.

What year does he think it is? Pete Hegseth would have been around 20yrs old. When was his last complete mental and physical exam?

This is Adelita Grijalva.
She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.
She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

This powerful message: “I did the research and found out I was wrong.”
I’m not going to say much more except please take the time to watch. Then send it around to family and friends, no matter their political persuasion.

Even if we never meet...I already know this about you (even if you don't):
You didn’t survive birth...heartbreak...and BS up until now... just to watch freedom get torched.
You were born for this moment. Don't let your eyes close tonight...without recognizing that.

So happy with my Sinclair Byron top and shorts! Top is what was left of a thrifted sheet. Shorts are made from a shabby chic Ralph Lauren shower curtain I got at a church sale. Inside of the pockets match my shirt.
