A government that targets citizens against fascism and dictatorships, isn’t a government worth keeping.

Trump says that, with his illegal mass layoffs, he’s closing “Democrat programs.” But programs like Social Security, education for children with disabilities, & clean water enforcement work for all Americans. If you want to repeal them, send a bill to Congress; if not, hands off.

Has anyone followed each state to dissect & tally if/how they are changing their gerrymandering?

California voters, are you paying attention?

North Carolina Republicans are redrawing the map to hand Trump another seat. They’re bragging about locking down Congress for him.

Prop 50 isn’t optional, it’s how we fight back. #YesOnProp50

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 :)

I am going to call my local California registrar & ask. We are about to pass Prop 50 (re-structuring gerrymandering) & I don't want to miss a vote.

Yes, like AOC, Crockett, Frost, & others. I am going to change party affiliation from Dem to Ind before they can pillage $$ from all Dem
Social Security accounts.

George Floyd should still be here to celebrate his 52nd birthday. His life sparked a movement, and our fight for justice, accountability, and humanity continues. We’ll never stop saying his name.

Major news outlets are standing together and refusing to sign. ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News have all rejected a new Pentagon policy that would impose unprecedented restrictions on news gathering.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

My bipartisan bill with Senator Grassley to bring home the 19,000 Ukrainian children kidnapped by Russia passed the Senate. We must do everything possible to bring these children home and reunite them with their families.

"WAYS TO READ THIS ARTICLE" ? The WP needs me to pay or give $$ to read. Well, I will use my eyes thank you.

What's wrong here? There is so much 'news' out there, why would I lock myself into one source. No can do. Middle school bandits...
