Key facts about SAVE Act 2.0 you won't hear from GOP sponsors:

-"Show your papers" requirement far more restrictive than voter ID
-Voters would have to show documents in-person at election office, traveling up to 4.5 hours to do so
-States would be forced to hand over voter rolls to Kristi Noem

"NSA and Homeland Security
have joined forces.

Authorized a $50,000 reward
for each wanted 828er.

Is that dead or alive?

You just activated every nut job wannabe to become a bounty hunter."

And their bows and their knives
We're fighting with our brothers, and our sisters for our lives
Rebel against the kings of Babylon!🎶

So many times I've wished I could be the quiet, demure lady-like human making others comfy. Then I remember so much unchecked hateful rhetoric resulting in uncountable, not remotely ok events... and I'm ok being having an unfiltered, rbf again.

Don't know the original source. This is facts 110%, and while I don't know how to throw a proper punch, this is definitely a hill I'm willing to die on.

just a reminder that I'm still here. exhausted, but still fighting ... which unfortunately translates as a hard lesson in continuing to put work before my personal life...and, likely why I haven't seen many of you in far too long. I keep hoping I'll get better at that, but 🤷‍♂️ #relunctantpaladin

Whoa... Mississippi- how y'all gonna make up that funding for public services?

Child in red shirt sitting under night sky talking with father figure, who is wearing a white, oxford shirt with collar unbuttoned. Boy: Got any fatherly advice? Father: Vengeance doesn't make you bad. The idea that if you retaliate against evil that makes you just as bad as the evil doers is wrong. It's exactly what bad guys would popularize, so that we don't shove them in wood chippers.
