This woman is amazing

Does anyone know her username on TikTok or here?

I want to give her a shoutout

The Indiana State Senate rejected President Donald Trump’s call for a special session to redraw the state’s congressional map ahead of the 2026 midterms. The move preserves Indiana’s current map and represents yet another rebuke of Trump’s national gerrymander push.

NEVER FORGET: President Biden added subsidies to Medicare Part D (those on Original/Traditional Medicare with or without Extra Help) for 2024, 2025, and 2026, & was going to permanently include them to KEEP the costs down. Well, The Trump Administration REPEALED them & that's why your PREMIUMS ARE 🚀

It's being reported that the Pentagon is authorizing military lawyers to serve as immigration judges. This is a threat to the Constitution. Don't say we didn't warn you. From the archives:
