"VILE TEXTS EXPOSE GOP ROT"

The Young Republican Telegram chat wasn’t private chatter. It was a window into a party teaching cruelty as culture; mocking decency and betraying the voters who trusted it.

The Hoods Are OFF! The GOP Embraces Nazis

If Republicans no longer want to be compared to Nazis and racists, then maybe they should stop supporting Nazis and promoting white supremacist talking points.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!
