Muslims didn’t storm the Capitol on January 6, try to steal an election, or overthrow our government.
White Christian nationalists, racist militia groups, and rabid Trump supporters did.
We need to stop pretending the biggest terrorist threat to this country is coming from somewhere else.

Elon killed Ukrainians by shutting down Starlink this week as reporting tell us. Do you doubt he would use all technology at his disposal to steal the 2026 election? Do you really think South Africa's Musk cares about US democracy?!
Elon Musk is so DESPERATE to avoid Democrats from wining Congress bc they will investigate how he spent the BILLIONS in US tax $$$ he received that he has spent $500 million to prevent Democrats from winning. Anyone this desperate to avoid being investigated would commit crimes to steal election.

Elon Musk has now reportedly spent nearly $500 million to buy Congress in this midterm election. Musk is the poster child for the oligarchy that wants to control us. To the oligarchs we are servants. All patriotic Americans regardless of party should oppose this. We need Big $ out of politics!

It's deeply irresponsible to treat anything Trump says as credible. He's flailing and desperate to save face, and he knows he can lie because the corporate media will dutifully parrot his words and spread his propaganda. There's a good chance Zelenskyy has no idea what the hell he's talking about.

Citizens United could be overturned on the basis of a new understanding of the facts. Limits on expenditures that are narrowly tailored to achieve the compelling objective of fair elections could pass First Amendment scrutiny. But I don’t see this Court doing so, so we must amend the Constitution.
Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms.
Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.
Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.
