We need to drum up support for the special elections in NY and FL! If won, the Dems will take back the House.
We can shut the Republicans down in the House in 60 days if we win!
This is our chance, we can't waste it.

DOCUMENT DESTRUCTION:
My reporter Brett Murphy obtained a remarkable directive to folks at USAID: Empty the safes with the classified and personnel records and then,
"Shred as many documents first, and reserve the burn bags for when the shredder becomes unavailable or needs a break."

The Guardian is reporting that Trump is openly violating a court order, and has transferred multiple transgender women to men's facilities.
We know in Florida, transgender women are having their hair shorn, feminine items confiscated, and pulled off medication.
This is inhumane and illegal.

“Today, the United States 🇺🇸 launched a trade war against Canada 🇨🇦, their closest partner & ally - their closest friend…
At the same time, they’re talking about working positively with Russia 🇷🇺, appeasing Vladimir Putin, a lying, murderous dictator.
