Ashley Hinson voted for the “One Big Beautiful Bill.” CBO now projects the law will mean 13.1 MILLION fewer Medicaid enrollees by 2035, while cutting Medicaid spending by about $1.2 TRILLION over the decade. That vote has consequences. #GOPWarOnHealthcare

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. In 2025, he made 1,794x more. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers? I will continue my boycott of Starbucks.

How do you think Americans would react if Trump declared Martial Law during the midterms, as some of his advisors are urging him to do, as reported by The Atlantic?

He's now resorting to trying to buy the election. Federal law makes it unlawful to knowingly and willfully pay, offer to pay, or accept payment for registering to vote or for voting. (52 U.S.C. §10307(c).) Any type of incentive is considered “payment.”
