We are fighting to protect our democracy, by being part of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party. We are looking to engage GenZ, Millennials, and other Young Dems and Progressives to become more active in rural Pennsylvania.
Guess we better be extra nice to Johnny or he will do bad things.
PA Facts: Only 46% of Pennsylvanians have a valid passport, and 2.9 million women in Pennsylvania do not have a birth certificate that matches their current legal name. Millions would be disenfranchised.

Contact your Senator and ask them not to waver. No SAVE Act.

Nice to see that the Pottsville Republican Herald has decided to give this issue the visibility it deserves.

It would be nice if the paper wrote why this racist rhetoric should never be allowed in public discourse.

And why this President should step down from office.

In the Pottsville Republican Herald, it’s official that DHS has purchased a 1.3 million sq foot warehouse in Tremont.

This should have everyone in Schuylkill County worried. If you think that because you’re white this won’t affect you, you didn’t read your history in high school.

Now he’s co-opting the military in his cleaning of all immigrants in this country.

Read your history. Once an authoritarian goes down this road it doesn’t stop with the people they started with. They will do the same thing to everyone they perceive as a threat to their power.

This is a post from Illini Republicans.

Only traitors help invaders.

Let that sink in. This isn’t an isolated bunch of Republicans, this is what ALL Republicans believe.

And if you stand up for citizens of color you’re a race traitor.

We will fight for our country. Pure and simple.

The administration is becoming worried about how their brutish actions are being perceived.

So instead of curtailing your brutish actions it’s easier to silence the observers.

So Pennsylvanians, be happy that your senator is not worrying about making your life better, but championing Trump to invade another country. Maybe instead of spending the weekend in the Poconos you can take a trip to Nuuk.

In the Pottsville Republican Herald this morning.

Writing about Trump at his rally in NE PA, they wrote that on the economy, Trump was “bullish even as many Americans grapple with economic anxieties.”

Let me translate. Trump lied while American can’t afford groceries.

That wasn’t hard
