📬 To mail or not to mail in your ballot. That is the question. If you normally vote by mail, you may be wondering what all the court battles over mail-in voting and the USPS mean for you. Don't panic. Make a plan. And have a backup plan. Read more: bit.ly/4A7ivrK #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks

⛽️ Over the past two weeks, gas prices in my Orlando neighborhood rose by 33–35 cents per gallon, or about 9%. Diesel fuel went up 75–80 cents, or about 14%. This gas station has the CHEAPEST prices I’ve found around here. Other stations have prices 5 cents or more higher! 🤬

Authoritarianism grows when government power can decide which critics get heard. When agencies like the FCC are pressured to punish networks, threaten licenses, or influence what reaches your television, regulation can become censorship—and dissent becomes the target. #WeStandWithKimmel

Oh, stop being a baby, Milo Yiannopoulos. You supported ICE when it was kidnapping people & sending them to concentration camps in countries they’d never seen—-WHEN IT WASN’T AFFECTING YOU! You spent 1 night in a detention facility—not a jail—before being flown to live free in your own country.

Politicians love screaming "support our troops" until actual troops and families ask for basic empathy. Calling military families liars when the proof is sitting on their phones isn't leadership, it's cowardice. Try taking accountability for once.

There's a concerted effort led by Trump to emotionally recondition people to think that kindness, empathy, and solidarity are weaknesses. They are not. We must show there is another way than what they want us to believe.

Pleading the fifth when Republicans do it is noble and necessary to fight the “witch hunt”. If a Democrat invokes their right, it’s automatic guilt. Weird how that works.

Kansas anti-trans law forced her license to say male. Then a cop questioned it and she was charged
Kris Ripper said she changed her Kansas license because the state required it. Then a traffic stop over headlights turned into questions about whether her ID was valid.
