Republicans are still trying to pass the SAVE Act—a bill that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join @redistrictingaction.org and tell your member of Congress to vote no: act.redistrictingaction.org/a/natl-saveact-cte

The US deficit is approaching ww2 levels as a percent of GDP. Because of the “Big Beautiful Bill” that GOP voted for. We are spending more on INTEREST than on anything else including the military. This is a time bomb, and the GOP is responsible. Fiscal conservative my ass

Women are increasingly disenchanted with Republicans and conservative thinking, so instead of addressing their concerns, the GOP is turning to the SAVE Act, in an attempt to keep them from voting. Please call your reps and ask them to vote against it. www.alternet.org/save-act-mid...

Occam's razor. DOJ hasn't released key documents, including the original 60-count draft indictment of Epstein and the victim statements. Why? DOJ really doesn't want us to read them. Why does DOJ care so much about these? Because they directly or indirectly implicate Trump.
