The House Republicans listed below are vulnerable in 2026. They will only vote to cut our benefits if they think no one is watching.
If you live in these districts, or know anyone who does, CALL NOW and tell them to keep their hands off Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid!

And I cannot believe Donald Trump is returning to the presidency. Another term, another crime spree — this time with immunity and impunity.
Trump’s back for a second whack at America.

The Trump criminal cases were sabotaged by a SCOTUS he stacked and a judge he nominated.
MAGA folks are going to try to gaslight that the cases against Trump “fell apart” as opposed to the truth.
FWIW I will only refer to Trump as “our criminal president” and I suggest every Democrat do the same.
