Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis diverted more than $35 MILLION in taxpayer dollars to defeat two ballot initiatives last year.
I’ve got the @miamiherald.com‘s blockbuster reporting on how DeSantis cheated needy Floridians and children from their already-earmarked funds.

The president doesn't have the authority to act as judge, jury, and executioner.
Congress must stop these illegal and immoral strikes, and officials who carried them out must be held accountable.

Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Everywhere I go, families tell me the same thing: Paychecks are not keeping up with prices at the grocery store, at the gas pump, or at the pharmacy. We deserve an Administration that is focused on lowering costs, not helping those at the very top get richer.

If ICE can threaten arrest for filming, then journalists, watchdogs, and protesters can all be silenced the same way. You don’t have freedom of the press if recording police is treated as terrorism. #holdfast
