Sen. Padilla's Prop 50 ad is very effective. They used the footage of him being shoved to the ground and cuffed. I swear, my blood pressure goes through the roof each time I see it.

Thank you, @padilla.senate.gov, for this ad. #Yeson50

Stevens: There’s $1.3 trillion of credit card debt. There are people putting grocery bills on credit cards and then paying interest on them. We are in an affordability crisis. Coffee is up 20%, beef is up 16%, bacon is up over 10%. And now we’re going to see health care costs skyrocket.

Really important that we don't become numb to the President designating unspecified groups as terrorists who he can just kill without any process and without much evidence that the allegations against the unknown people are even actually true.

I don't think Putin can afford to admit that the war hasn't been a mistake&stop the war he cannot win.This’ll mean the end of his power.He needs a war that lasts- lasts until the end of his life

Is Putin ready to stop the war?That is the wrong question
The right question is:Can Putin stop the war?⤵️
