Your vote on the budget was not bi-partisan -- it was capitulation to a regime that knows no constitutional limits or boundaries. The shutdown began with DOGE on January 20th. Your vote sanctified the 10 months of dysfunction and despair occurring daily for Americans. Protect our Democracy First

On December 14, 2012, a mass shooter murdered 20 children, ages 6 and 7, and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut.
Four days later, evangelical author James Dobson claimed the mass shooting was God's retribution for abortion and gay marriage.
He died today at 89.
