Damn, that's some powerful shit, and I love it.
The world has to change for the better, or don't expect women to participate in extending sexism and misogyny.
So Republicans are anti-gerrymandering now? Interesting pivot from the party that perfected map-rigging, voter suppression, and choosing their voters before voters can choose them.

John Cornyn has been in office longer than I’ve been alive.
He’s had 40 years to lower the cost of housing, healthcare, groceries, utilities, and gas.
What’s the hold up?
When fascism is at the door, pull left.
When the truth is finally revealed about Trump starting this war to stay out of jail for raping children, remember that Republicans allowed him to unilaterally announce it from his FL hangout without any Congressional approval.
The truth will come out. What we're getting now is all spin.
Social Murder.
Exactly.
And the most horrific thing about it is that the people simply cannot believe that it could be happening.
Until it’s too late.
Fascists "solve" problems by eliminating the people - killing and murder and "letting" people die, fascists consider these "solutions."
"The MAGA Murder Bill is turning our government into a weapon against our people" - it is a "solution" designed by fascists.

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files.
Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas.
You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.
Right now, in the middle of Trump's war with Iran, Senate Republicans are keeping us here all night to vote on the most pressing issue they can think of:
Giving $70 BILLION more to ICE and CBP.
I'm going to fight them every step of the way.
The Hormuz situation seems so so bad, like gonna-destabilize-half-the-globe-and-tank-the-economy bad, with no obvious resolution even plausible, and it’s still getting the “distant crisis mostly of interest to nerds that will work itself out” treatment in American press
Canada's newest refugee , at least she'll be welcomed here we will return her when and if America gets back to normal !!! 🙊🙉🙈
The world must come together! We have the numbers on our side!

Interceptor drones are the economics of modern war.
$3K–$6K to stop a Shahed.
Millions for a missile doing the same job.
Scale wins wars now.
...Not prestige systems.

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ and his reputation leaving the court-house! #FAFO
Good to know!
A judge said a documentary released on Peacock last year could not have harmed Sean “Diddy” Combs’ reputation, as it was already “tarnished” by his criminal charges and civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault.
the way this makes sense for RFK is that "healthy people" and "sick people" are ontological categories.
For decades, rich and powerful interests and their right-wing political allies have been executing a secret plot to buy our political system — and it may get a whole lot worse.

I've seen a lot of references online to a "J. Edgar Boozer" and although I'm not saying anyone in particular deserves that appellation, I do think it would be the perfect name for someone serving as head of the Federal Bureau of Intoxication, if there were such a thing, which I'm not saying there is
HUGE WIN! H.R. 1897 the bill that would have gutted Endangered Species Act protections for threatened and endangered species has been pulled from today’s House floor vote. Your calls and pressure worked. Thank you for speaking up.

The Senate for a fifth time failed to advance a measure that would have opened debate on halting the war in Iran as Republicans continued to block efforts to assert congressional war powers.
The final tally: 46-51.

HUGE scandal if true. Laura Loomer got Marco Rubio to throw two Iranian women with green cards in ICE jail to be stripped of status and deported, claiming they were related to Qasem Soleimani.
Official documents provided to @dropsitenews.com appear to show they are NOT related; they're innocent.
