Votes are in, from a 48-hour “X” poll.

While we can surely agree we want to Make America Great Again. To achieve that goal, looks like we need to Make America Smart. But first, we need to Make Lying Wrong Again.

My family found a home here after fleeing the pogroms in Ukraine.

This country accepted us as refugees when we had nothing except the shirts on our backs.

We've seen what can happen when we don't speak up about the dangers — it's time to raise the alarm now.

HANES is exporting their products from their 350,000-square-foot El Salvador textile plant to the US.

What’s next? Hanes using prisoners as their labor force?

Return Garcia to America!

Did you know Hanes is El Salvador’s biggest importer?

• They can use their economic influence to pressure Bukele to release Kilmer Garcia

• Stop making products in a country willing to imprison American citizens without due process

Call and tell them you will #BoycottHanes 👇🏼

PSA from @johncusack.bsky.social: Democracy is under attack — and paywalls shouldn’t stand in the way of accessing vital public records.

News outlets, it’s time to drop the paywalls for FOIA-based reporting.

@wired.com did it. @404media.co did it.

Now, it’s your turn.

It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots.

The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination.

This should outrage every single Member of Congress.

In case you're wondering...

it's been 17 days since a reporter was added to a Signal group chat where our government officials were sharing war plans.

And nobody has been fired...

Yesterday, TX Rep. Keith Self (R) quoted Nazi Joseph Goebbels on controlling public opinion🤬

Using Nazi propaganda is more than vile; it’s a flashing red siren. This is how democracy dies: not with a bang, but with silence in the face of fascist rot.

America, do not be silent.

Why would a leader tank his own country's economy?

It's a key part of the aspiring autocrat's playbook.

Tariffs & chaos mean more power & control for Trump.

But America has no king. The Republican-led Congress can stop this at any time.

Let your reps hear from you.
