Frost: Trump knows that when they passed the big, ugly bill that rips away healthcare from 17 million people, you usually don’t win elections when you do something like that…

So instead of undoing that, he’s pressuring states to give him more seats.

What California is doing is responding to that

Wanna stop getting calls and texts from me about Prop 50? Send your ballot in today. That removes you from the contact lists, and helps phone bankers use their time more effectively :)

Hello everyone.

Antifa is not a real organization.

Proud Boys are.

Oath Keepers are.

Patriot Front is.

KKK is.

Heritage Foundation is.

Antifa is not.

Thanks for your attention.

The voters made their voice heard. And now, Adelita Grijalva is officially certified to represent Arizona’s 7th Congressional District.

It’s time for Mike Johnson to stop playing games and swear in Adelita so she can get to working for the people of AZ-07.

Friendly reminder: "I was just following orders" didn't protect those who faced the Nuremberg trials who had once dragged crying women and children from their homes from the consequences of their actions.

Confirmed, the "Gaza peace deal" was the same deal offered to Netanyahu and the US repeatdly, but it was turned down by Israel because they wanted to gift Trump (Israeli asset) a perceived victory at the expense of the Israeli hostages and Gaza population.

Removing Trump is the only way to get rid of real ‘waste, fraud, and abuse’

Trump’s frequent Mar-a-Lago trips? items such as $800,000 per Air Force One trip, one month of security at about $478,000, and other assorted costs for Marine One helicopter and county security. Sounds like a lot of waste and abuse, Trump’s military birthday parade? That wasted $30M
