I’ve been many people, done many things. Besides my 30+ yr marriage to Carlton, most proud to have volunteered with the #OneInTeen #LGBTQ youth group in Nashville for 20 yrs. Was also part of #GeeksResist #DemCast prior to being banned from Musk’s Twitter.

In 1982, the Reagan DOJ had a goal: preserve the VRA IN NAME ONLY, while rendering it unenforceable in practice. A young John Roberts was the architect of that campaign.

So much that is wrong with America started with Reagan. The GOP SCOTUS works hard for Trump.

While predictive opinion pieces which portend disaster for the GOP give Democrats an enjoyable sugar high, there must be a strategy at work here

Do they want us to get overconfident and not turn out

Are they trying to pressure more gerrymandering

What are they up to-and how do we defeat it
“It’s not a secret. There’s no sugarcoating it. It’s a pending, looming disaster heading our way.”

“We are facing almost certain defeat.”

“The chances are Republicans will go down and will go down hard.”

So far, 4 Republican Senators and 23 Republican Representatives are not running for reelection in 2026. Seems like TACO is rubbing off on Congress, making chickens of them too. 🔄

Nixon didn’t go to prison over Watergate, but 48 others were convicted and served time for the scandal - notably, his Attorney General. Attention: Pam Bondi meet John Mitchell.

Antifa is not an organized political group. It's a decentralized movement without a clear structure, hierarchy or leader, according to Congressional Research Service.

More GOP Lies today about the ANTIFA boogeyman!

Thank goodness most of our citizens are anti-fascist.

Hundreds of kids in S Carolina are being quarantined right now because of a measles outbreak.

I don’t have patience for niceties when it comes to this crap, so if you’re an anti-vaxxer, keep your damn kids at home and don’t travel for the holidays.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

Q: Does the White House have a response to a judge ordering the immediate release of Kilmar Ábrego García from ICE detention? Will you appeal?

LEAVITT: Absolutely. The White House opposes this activism from a judge. He is a proven human trafficker

A great win for America. Buttigieg has a great understanding of the State of Play in the chaotic era.
Wow!!!

A few months ago, when Pete Buttigieg said there was still hope that Indiana Republicans would do the right thing, I was skeptical.

Pete was right.

Just now, the Indiana State Senate voted 31-19 to REJECT Trump's extreme gerrymandering. 🤯🙌

Congrats to Indiana holding to democracy, unlike my home state of Tennessee ... where the TN GOP gerrymandered its congressional districts to deny Nashville fair representation.
Wild that even in Indiana the GOP finally found a line they couldn’t cross. If your gerrymander is so extreme that a Republican Senate says ‘absolutely not,’ you know you cooked it. Democracy wins today.

Trump's “enemies list” includes people & institutions he has publicly attacked over the years.

Now that he has power again, "his" Justice Dept. is trying to prosecute those who try to hold him accountable for his crimes. Mob Boss!

Trump's "Big Ugly Bill" benefits the rich & powerful at the expense of working families.

The MAGA Republican budget takes away our healthcare -and- the Trump tariffs increase our costs for groceries, clothes & electronics – all to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy.

SPEAK UP!

Trump told his conspiracy believers that he would “drain the swamp” & expose Epstein’s network.

Now he claims the Epstein files never existed, triggering a MAGA crisis of faith so deep it's even shaking some of his most loyal insiders.

After we called for an investigation into Rep. Young Kim for disregarding federal disclosure law five separate times, the congresswoman admitted to violating the law with $50,000 in undisclosed luxury travel. #CA40
Rep. Young Kim didn’t disclose all of her sponsored travel, complaint alleges
The Anaheim Hills Republican has since amended her financial forms to disclose the trips taken from 2022 to 2024.

Trump claims there was “no inflation” during his first term.

Reality check: consumer prices rose about 8% from the first day of his term to the last day, with an inflation rate of 2.46%.

Trump claims that grocery prices are “WAY DOWN.”

Actually, grocery prices have been on the increase since he took office.

Fed-Chair Jerome Powell said Wednesday that the current overshooting of the inflation target is mostly the result of Trump's import tax hikes.

Fact: Russia invaded Ukraine, seizing Crimea in 2014 and launching a full-scale assault in 2022.

Liar Trump falsely claims that tariffs are paid by other countries, not by American consumers.

Fact: US importers pay the tariffs as customs duties, then pass the higher costs to retailers, who pass them to US consumers.

The GOP doesn't care if you or your family have access to Healthcare.

They proved that AGAIN today!

From the GOP point of view, THEY have THEIRS, so why should they care about what YOU need.

This is pure political theater. An FBI official, under oath, calls Antifa the top domestic terror threat but can't name its headquarters or a single member. It's a fabricated boogeyman, exposing how law enforcement is being twisted for partisan aims. Dangerous nonsense.
