Email from the official Social Security site. Uh, did they create an account for my kids even when I told them no? Because it certainly looks like they went ahead and created an account for every kid to juice their numbers.
Today, nearly 70 million Trump Accounts are open for all American children. Parents and legal guardians simply need to claim their child’s Trump Account through the official Trump Accounts app, available to download for free in the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Should I caulk this cabinet gap or look for a piece of matching trim? Normally I'd go trim, but I didn't install these so not sure the exact color.

I think the reported massive cash hauls are buying less ads/GOTV then you'd expect. And are simply going back into huge fundraising costs. This is designed to get gullible seniors to open their wallets for the 5th time this week.

It was the Uhaul. Shocking right? The VW wouldn't even give me a radio option until I plugged in my phone. Never did figure out what menu the defrost was under this morning. Never had that issue with buttons. Also for some reason the VW had this monstrosity of a gear selector? PRNDL worked fine!

I'm leading in the polls but "we're nowhere near raising what we need to win". This is exactly the time of messaging that Adam Bonica was highlighting in his article.
Hey, it’s James Talarico. Yes, actually me. I’m writing this myself because this is serious.

I know we have asked a lot lately — more than I would like to, believe me. But I hope you see it as a sign of how important you are to this movement.

Unfortunately, it takes an appalling amount of money to win a U.S. Senate race in Texas, and it’s not easy to raise those resources without corporate PACs or a rolodex of wealthy friends and billionaires.

So I have to turn to people like you. We have to do this the right way if we’re going to defeat the most corrupt politician in Texas and take power back for working people.

Tonight is our very last FEC deadline before Election Day, and we are nowhere close to raising what we need to win. If we fall short, we’ll be forced to make cuts right as the spending against us is spiking.

We need a surge of support today to reach our goals, so I’m personally asking you to use this link to contribute:

https://blue.gifts/z5x9FK0

Please know I would not ask if I didn’t absolutely believe it would make a difference.

Thank you in advance. - James

Found this, from when Minnesota abolished the death penalty in 1911 after a botched execution in years prior. From Rep MacKenzie:
 Rep. MacKenzie stated, ​“Let us bar this thing of Vengeance and the Furies from the confines of our great State; Let not this harlot of judicial murder smear the pages of our history with her bloody fingers, or trail her crimson robes through our Halls of Justice, and let never again the Great Seal of the Great State of Minnesota be affixed upon a warrant to take a human life

This.
 As a share of the budget, state funding has plummeted over the decades, falling to about 15%, compared to 39% in 1997. If that’s what you want, then fine. But did we ever have a public debate about whether that’s what Minnesotans actually want?

So going out of your way to attack a small minority like trans people In order to court a microscopically small number of "Republicans who might flip sides" make sense?
A dumbass user says "maybe because defending everything about a super small minority of the population is not worth losing to fascists"

To which another dumbass user says "this is the cold hard reality and I don't understand when it became so difficult to understand"
