I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

RFK Jr. wants to "make America healthy again."
So he's doing that by dismantling federal health agencies and firing civil servants who inspect our food, track infectious diseases, and research life-saving treatments and vaccines.

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

Warren: "Powell himself said he would've lowered interest rates in February but for the fact of Trump's tariff chaos. So that means that if you have credit cards, car loans, you've been paying more for 6 months now because of one human being -- Donald Trump, and the chaos he causes."

This is why "you're right, it isn't what you voted for, because your values aren't shared by the Republican Party" is a much more effective message to help build a better America than "yes you did vote for this, you bad person" which fails to take advantage of this once-in-a-generation opportunity
I think, done properly, they merge into one.
She may not have explicitly wanted this to happen, & not thought it was what she was voting for, but she did, in fact, vote for it.
That's the gap that needs fixing: between what she *thought* she was voting for & what she *actually* was voting for.
