🗳️ I just voted YES on #Prop50 because Californians deserve fair representation and a REAL response to partisan gerrymandering across the country.

If you believe in protecting democracy and balanced elections, join me and vote YES on 50.

Guardrails of Democracy @demguardrails.bsky.social · 3h

Trump’s gerrymandering directive to red states is an order to protect his power & it can’t go unchecked

He knows he’s losing favor
& everyday Congress gets closer to losing seats in 2026.

CA Prop 50 is a temporary Guardrail to protect your democracy. Vote Yes!

Mike Johnson insisted Republicans “have lots of ideas of how to fix” Obamacare.

They’ve been saying that for the entire 15 years since the law passed. All they have come up with is kicking millions off coverage.

The GOP cannot be trusted with Americans’ health care.

I see Republicans criticizing Obamacare right now.

You ask them about their own health care policies, they've got nothing.

Republicans are the party of kicking Americans off health care. That was true during Trump’s 1st term when they tried to kill the ACA, and it's true now.

This should be considered everywhere. They are kidnapping, abusing, harassing and threatening people who have rights. Every single one of them have rights and they are ignored. What they’re doing is unconstitutional and illegal.
Payback will come.

Untrained, unidentified, masked men, on private property, with no warrants, they NOT law enforcement and they don’t care about laws. This is the Wild West and they are the bad guys.

This administration keeps torching the Hatch Act—propaganda videos in airports, partisan emails on federal servers, even mass firings. It’s corruption with a flag pin. See something? Say something. Expose it through the whistleblower tip line.
