We are so grateful to libraries across the country that are going the extra mile to ensure people in their communities are able to secure their guns. It takes a village to keep our families and communities safe from gun violence, and we can all play a role. 💚💜

This is what the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool looks like nearly $17M later. A perfect representation of what the criminal MAGA regime has done to this country.

Especially if you live in Texas, check your voter registration status NOW — but everyone should be doing it. Republicans are desperate to hold onto power, and they’ll cheat and suppress the vote to do so. Don’t assume you’re registered just because you’ve voted before. Check. Verify. Be vigilant.

Great video! Check your registration now, & check it again before the registration deadline in your state. Over a million people were kicked off the voter rolls in TX. Over 400,000 were kicked off in LA. Make sure you are registered, no matter where you live. Don’t let them stop you from voting!

Now feels like as good of a time as any to remind folks that the Yam Tits in Chief is not a doctor or a scientist, and his recent executive order on childhood vaccines is NOT legislation, nor is it rooted in reality or science. Do not listen to that absolutely demented and unqualified freak!

The president’s big gains with Black, Hispanic, and young voters in 2024 suggested a major shift. Less than two years later, he has lost those new supporters.

The media's insistence that Trump's critics are part of the problem gives cover to false equivalence — treating his lawlessness as one side of a legitimate debate.
