Now is the moment for us to reach down and pick up the power we have as citizens and rebuke these abuses so decisively that no president will try anything like this again for centuries.

The amount of money the administration is promising in order to buy votes is significantly less than the amount of money it is taking away in programs and services. And it's OUR money!

TODAY is the last day to register to vote in several states.

I urge you to double check your state's deadline, verify that you are registered, and make changes to your registration if needed.

Then contact three friends or family members and have them do the same. https://whenweallvote.org/

While a small percentage of disgruntled Trump supporters may switch sides, we really need a big turnout from those who chose not to vote in the last election. We need all votes. Ignore the polls. Show up.

Turek @joshturek4iowa.bsky.social is the real deal. Iowans, make sure your friends vote!
Black Hawk County, we’ve got less than 30 days. Let’s get out the vote!

Iowans are ready for change and it’s going to take all of us knocking doors, making phone calls, and reaching out to our friends and family to make it happen.

It's clear that corrupt Supreme Court justices gave a corrupt Trump permission to break laws passed by Congress. Actions that look wrong to the public might still count as “official acts” legally. And the Court made it harder-but not impossible-to prosecute him. Trump is counting on that! 💩

Trump could hand me a check for a billion dollars and I’d still vote against him.

I don’t understand why so many Americans are happy to be bribed. Don’t you have any pride?
