There are flyers circulating and even mailers showing up in people’s mailboxes in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District that list the wrong date for the upcoming special election. Voters are being told to vote on the incorrect day.

My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.

I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.

And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

Weekly gratitude practice. What's everyone grateful for?

My thanks to everyone who protested on Tuesday as ICE, aided by the Saint Paul police, abducted two people from their home. We did not stop it, but we witnessed it.

It was awful. I got a little bit pepper sprayed. I am ready to do it again.

#Indiana Legislators are rushing a special session on redistricting: House hearings expected Tues, Dec. 2; Senate hearings on Tues the 9th. They may not allow time for everyone to testify, or may try to shut public comment down altogether. Share your testimony here: secure.ngpvan.com/g2gLE0zNgEWK...
This isn’t normal redistricting after the census — it’s an early, mid-decade power grab to redraw Indiana’s Congressional maps years ahead of schedule so politicians can pick their voters instead of voters choosing their leaders.

The felon also granted asylum to the shooter this past April 2025... He granted him asylum 6 months ago.
He seems to forget that He is the current president; NOT Biden.

So not only was the DC shooter granted asylum by this administration, but he also has ties to the CIA and was even in possession of a CIA-issued ID. This administration gives one no choice but to entertain conspiracy theories.

If the state of Delaware prohibited companies incorporated there from spending on elections in any way, Citizens United would be dead in the water.

Delaware incorporates more companies than any other state.

It’s a blue state. Let’s get cracking on moving Delaware lawmakers on this!

Like so many members of our military, serving this country changed my life. The Navy gave me opportunities I wouldn't dream of and taught me lessons I'll never forget. I'm grateful for everything our nation has given me, and I'll always do everything I can to give back to it.

Because of American Christian groups donating to far-right groups. Been happening for years now.
