Shady MO state GOP word ballot measures to get voters to reverse their previous vote. Voters overwhelming voted to allow abortions up to fetal viability. Citizens want ability to petition to have issues on ballot. Add an issue to each that people will vote FOR AND they'll vote against what they want

Leading democratic politicians should make plans to be in Springfield on February 4th
I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.
Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.
Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

I am not a big fan of Newsom, then he goes and does something I really like. (I appreciate a lot he says and does, I just do not think he is the person to be POTUS...yet anyway)
Gavin Newsom just announced that California will be the first state to join the World Health Organization.
This is in direct defiance of Donald Trump, who just pulled the United States out of the organization.
