In ‘24, out of approximately 245M Americans who were ELIGIBLE to vote, 174M voted. Trump created an affordability crisis, war, dared Iran to bomb 2 American cities, & attacked our rights to free speech, press, privacy, & due process. Don’t sit this one out! Vote for a better life, & vote early.
Text at the top of the cartoon says: “This is one of THE most important comics of all time. Please vote this year! The comic is a drawing of two groups of people. One group is wearing “I voted” tshirts. The other group are wearing blank tshirts and the dialogue balloon above their heads says: “WE DIDN’T VOTE BECAUSE IT WON’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE!”

Mike Rogers has the audacity to lie to you about his plan like he didn't vote 4 times to stop you from getting cheaper medication from Canada, take $1M from Big Pharma, and vote 19 times to keep prescription drug prices higher. GTFOH.

A pocket rescission is an illegal line item veto. It is the president saying that he and he alone will convert a bipartisan spending bill (that has been signed into law) into a partisan spending bill. He is canceling the lines of spending he doesn't like.

"Narrowed what counts as bribery" is more than a bit of an understatement. They've legalized bribery. Clarence Thomas, Don Jr., Susan Collins, Leonard Leo... Corruption IS the system the Roberts Court built.
Building a corruption case against elected officials requires extraordinary proof of a quid pro quo arrangement, in part because the Supreme Court has narrowed what counts as bribery.

Trump has now refunded $128 billion dollars from his tariffs to corporations. Tariffs he created, made Americans pay for, and then returned right back to his donors. We paid, and his friends cashed in.

Trump “punishes” ally South Korea for not wanting to get involved in his foolish war with Iran, and rewards his “friend,” the murderous North Korean dictator, whose troops could soon be fighting again in Europe. America has fallen so very far, so very fast, under Trump.

Stop the false equivalence. No other President sued his own government to secure immunity for himself and his family, created a fund to reward cop beaters, and demanded prosecution of his political enemies. Trump’s weaponization of DOJ is unprecedented and you just endorsed it.

Trump ended the most affordable student loan repayment plan in history and called it a win. A win for who? Not the 7 million borrowers about to see their monthly payments jump. Working people deserve a government that fights for them—not against them.

The reason why ICE agents continue to shoot people is because nothing ever happens to them when they do. They essentially have been granted full immunity for whatever they choose to do to people by a lawless regime of thugs.
