It's been 42 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.

Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

Bomb threats to heavily democrat districts sent out on election day, similar incidents targeting democrat prominent polling stations occurred during the 2024 US election. Trump, MAGA, and Israel have been spreading violent rhetoric to discourage or influence voters throughout the campaign.

Oligarchs and extreme wealth inequality are your real enemies. Not immigrants. Not Muslims. Not China. Not gay or trans people. Not the "War on Drugs" or "War on Terror". Billionaires are the enemy. Destroy them.

It's going to take this kind of rivaled juice that only Zohran-types have to get past the combined forces of lawless morass of fused media and capital from now on, which is basically the dictionary definition of fascism. Dems have to pitch perfect games nonstop for several years.
