If you’re not from Missouri, you may not know that Eric Schmitt got his start in MAGA politics by suing public schools for mask mandates while their teachers died during a pandemic. The really strange thing? He never sued his own kids’ school for their mask mandate. He’s a piece of Schitt.

The library isn't your mommy or daddy. Nobody is forcing you to check out any books. Nobody is forcing you to read any books. If you don't like a book, don't read it. If you don't want your kids reading the book, grow up, be a parent, and choose a different book.

To flip the Senate, Democrats need to pick up 4 seats. 5 if you count the Fetterman problem. This can’t be emphasized enough: Michigan is a must-protect seat. Lose it, and we’d need to flip another seat just to make up the loss.
