Your electric bill is up as much as 30%. PG&E's CEO took home $63.6 MILLION. Duke's CEO took home $51.2 MILLION. And both companies paid NEGATIVE federal tax rates. That's not a coincidence. That's a rigged system. Tax the rich.

Dennis Hastert died. Who's that? He was the longest serving Republican Speaker in history, a registered sex offender and a serial child molester. But somehow most Americans don't know about him. Anyway, he's in hell now.

Alabama Republicans voted against funding the bridge. Biden got the money approved. The bridge got built. Now Trump wants his name on it, and Republicans have made that the priority. Vote against it. Take credit for it. Put your name on it.

Pneumonic plague doesn't spread like COVID–which makes the silence around Irkutsk harder to explain, not easier.

Not sure if the point of Angela Paxton’s video was to cause people to search Angela Paxton’s name only to find out that she helped facilitate Ken Paxton’s corruption for many years before ultimately filing to divorce him on “biblical grounds”, but that’s what happened.

If you vote by mail, fill your ballot out and take a picture of it next to a handwritten note with your username on it. Don't post it to your socials until they start saying the election was stolen or a fraud or ballots were misplaced/seized/destroyed.
