We’ve got the worm-eaten-brain crew making decisions about our children's health. And then they wonder why measles, whooping cough, and mumps are making a comeback. How about we listen to the folks who actually went to medical school.

SCOTUS debases this country and the Constitution with virtually every case. And they regularly do it without considering actual evidence, data, or fundamental human rights. Do not vote for ANYONE who does not pledge to expand the Court and fix the judiciary system

So let me get this straight. They KNEW, or they FOUND OUT that Trump raped children. And instead of being REPULSED, HORRIFIED or DISGUSTED they held a meeting to cover up his despicable crimes. Every single one of them MUST NEVER be allowed to forget their complicity in child rape.
Trump White House held emergency meeting on how to spin the Epstein files cover up to the public.

JASON BATEMAN IS RIGHT. IT'S TIME TO START CALLING OUT HIS VOTERS, NOT HIM.

"TRUMP VOTERS JUST INCREASED THE DEFICIT BY 5 TRILLION DOLLARS."

"TRUMP VOTERS JUST DEPORTED A KID WITH CANCER."

"TRUMP VOTERS JUST APPROVED KICKING 13 MILLION PEOPLE OFF HEALTH INSURANCE."

"TRUMP VOTERS ARE EXCITED ABOUT SELLING OFF OUR PUBLIC LANDS.”

THEY DON'T GET TO HIDE BEHIND THEIR VOTES. THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WERE VOTING FOR AND THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONSEQUENCES!"

The Department of Homeland Security is using administrative subpoenas, a secretive tool issued without a judge's signature, to go after people lawfully reporting ICE activity or criticizing DHS policies. This is a direct attack on our First Amendment rights and we're fighting back.
