Yes, you heard @lynch.house.gov right: Trump has made $1.4 BILLION from his crypto businesses as president. While Americans struggle to pay their bills, Donald Trump and his children rake in cash. Oversight Dems refuse to let this corruption continue.

SCOTUS was wrong to allow Trump to overhaul a federal system to initiate voter registration purges, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote in her dissent. Jackson said the court’s decision could potentially disenfranchise legitimate voters, including naturalized citizens: demdock.com/4xFjBIx

I'm against a state takeover of Austin ISD, full stop. Abbott underfunds our schools by $4,000 a student, and still finds $1 billion for private vouchers. Keep AISD independent and in local hands.

Exactly this. What he did was not only deplorable, it was treasonous. He and his election-denying enablers should all be thrown in prison. Hopefully the midterms will be a brutal awakening for the MAGA cult and we can finally start to see accountability.
The biggest mistake in American history was not dragging Trump off to prison within 24 hours of Jan 6th. We'll all pay for that for the rest of our lives.
