This is the moment when more than 30 million Americans received affordable healthcare in 2010.
Today, Republicans have voted to make healthcare UNAFFORDABLE for more than 40 million.
The #RepublicanHealthCareFailure and greed will cost thousands of lives.

The fascists have been and continue to fund high school and college anti-abortion groups. They've been doing it for years. The progressives and liberals give money to Planned Parenthood which does not fund high school and college pro-abortion/reproductive justice groups.

TRUMP: THE DRUG TRAFFICKER’S FRIEND
Why is he blowing up boats with low-level drug runners,
and letting the kingpins go free?
Despite his anti-drug rhetoric, Donald Trump has issued more pardons to drug dealers than any president in history.

Congressional investigations are likely the ONLY accountability this administration will face. Bondi won't arrest anyone. US officials can't be tried at the Hague. And even if we get a new AG in 2029, Trump is going to pardon everyone. These midterms are crucial for accountability.

There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.
ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.

Republicans had a very bad day yesterday:
-Trump fell asleep during his cabinet meeting.
-Republicans continue to lose critical cases in court.
-They vastly underperformed in a Tennessee congressional special election.
They are panicking and will become much worse. Pay attention.
