Thou shalt keep talking about Epstein until the truth comes out and justice is done for the victims.

Donold wants you to stop asking about it. Never stop asking.

There’s money for ICE
There’s money for concentration camps
There’s money for tax cuts for the wealthy

Yet there’s no money for healthcare, housing, food assistance, social support, or public broadcasting.

There’s no money to help the sick, homeless & starving

Suffering is a political choice

When a government starts targeting former intelligence officials, law enforcement leaders, and anyone who once investigated or criticized those in power, it’s not just a red flag, it’s a page straight from the authoritarian playbook.

PAY ATTENTION: L.A. just got a little preview of what’s coming. No arrests. No real “threat.”

Just cops in riot armor playing soldier. Martial law isn’t a conspiracy anymore, it’s a countdown.

Republicans are not just gutting Medicaid.

They are gutting the whole f*cking marketplace.

If you're a 60 yr old couple & make 80k/year, insurance premiums are about to go up 400% and cost 26k more.

Millions and millions of people are about to no longer have access to healthcare.

It breaks my heart that this is what we’ve come to as a Senate — and as a country.
