If you’re a married woman, rural voter, or American citizen, it’s going to get a lot harder to vote if the SAVE Act passes.

To everyone planning to attend one of the No Kings Rallies this weekend, please keep these words from John Lennon in mind at all times.

This is how our Kansas Senator referred to a Democratic proposal in the Senate which would keep health insurance premium costs down. But hey.... when you're a rich Senator who actually lives in FL what do you care?

It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

@cnn.com The disrespect Scott Jennings & Brad something or just showed Abby Phillip & the audience on NewsNight was insulting. Every question asked was answered by spin & when called out by Phillips, she was attacked. Diverse opinions on panels shows are good but this is not informative.

Watched a lot of @cnn.com this week. The refusal to use the word "hypocrisy" directly to define MAGA lawmakers' and Republican strategists' attitude toward major issues is insulting to viewers. Talking around the direct use of this word only further reduces credibility.

Happy b’day, “Pet Sounds” — released by The Beach Boys today in 1966 and a groundbreaking influence in music. 🎂

“I bought my kids each a copy of it for their education in life,” Paul McCartney once said. “I figure no one is educated musically until they’ve heard this album.”

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.

Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Instead of holding public town halls in the Kansas Fourth Congressional District, Rep Ron Estes is spending his time visiting El Salvador prisons, and then trying to hide. @kwch.com #RepShariceDavids @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social

When you click on the Jason SMith post, the picture actually has one other person with him Rep. Estes
We've reached the point where Republicans are flying to El Salvador to visit one of the most vicious prisons in the world to have photo ops so they can prove their loyalty to the President of the United States.

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance.

Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.
