BREAKING: In a 53-47 vote, Senate Republicans failed to pass an anti-voting measure that would have required voters to provide photo ID to cast ballots. The vote follows repeated failures by the Senate to pass the SAVE America Act, an anti-voting bill Trump has called his “No. 1 priority.”

According to Trump, Iran wants to make a deal badly and is begging to surrender to him because they are completely destroyed but he doesn’t want to accept that so the war must continue and he will bomb them again very strongly and powerfully right after the midterm elections.

Dairy cows are gentle, emotional animals. They form bonds, grieve, and feel fear and pain. Yet the dairy industry keeps them in a cycle of forced pregnancy and separation from their calves, only to be sent to slaughter once their bodies give out. #DairyIsScary 💔 #DitchDairy 💔
