Hard working men and women are struggling to put gas in their cars, and the orange lard ass is worried about how Richard f*cking NIXON was treated. Vote Blue. Be responsible for 5 others doing the same.

With this monopolized media empire comes not just size but unprecedented power. The power to throw workers under the bus. The power to price-gouge because consumers have few alternatives. The power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told.

In the first 8 months as VP, Vance has been on vacation 7 months. He's been on vacation with his family to India, Rome, Disneyland, the UK, the Sugarbush Resort in Vermont, & a park in North Dakota. And then he tells us to stop griping about costs calling them little things. Fuck Vance!

ICE arrested the mom of a 9-year-old at a school bus stop in Austin, leaving him alone and crying. The video has profanity and is heartbreaking to watch, but it shows the fear/pain of what happened. This is evil. This is wrong. And it has to stop.

McDonald's is now reportedly pressuring franchisees to use AI to price food. Its CEO raked in $20.6M last year, over 1,000x the median McDonald's worker pay of $19,020. And they remain one of the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients. I'm not lovin' it.

How do you defeat a president who’s trying to sabotage the midterms? 1. Use drop boxes. 2. Vote EARLY in person. 3. If mailing in your ballot, put it in the mail AT LEAST two weeks before Election Day. 4. Vote in person on Election Day. 5. Share these instructions with everyone you know.
