Have you heard about this MAGA attack on our voting rights? It would make voter registration harder and keep millions of Americans from voting. We have to call our Senators and Congressional Representatives - tell them to vote 'NO' on the SAVE Act! social.redwine.blue/s/aVA1rlun

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.
I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

The central core of Trumpism is voter suppression and election subversion. Too many people only pay attention to this right before elections and forget it once elections are over.
We must take this threat literally and seriously if we want to have free and fair elections in the future.

Don’t let Trump’s flurry of executive orders overshadow his effort to rewrite history by pardoning Jan 6 attackers. They were not “hostages.” They are criminals convicted of committing political violence after receiving due process in court.
