First Donald Trump cleared the field for Mike Rogers.
Now the same far-right oil baron billionaire backing the Texas gerrymandering scheme just gave five MILLION to his SuperPAC.
Michigan voters will decide who wins this race. Not the highest bidder.

Well I’ve got a checkmark now, so figured I’d re-introduce myself.
I’m Santiago Mayer, I’m 23 years old and the Executive Director of @votersoftomorrow.org. I have spent the last 7 years working to turn out Gen Z and stop MAGA, and I’m not stopping now.

This is a concession by the U.S. government that its “arrangement” with El Salvador is irrevocable. To me this has to be grounds to argue that the arrangement itself is unconstitutional under the Fifth and Eighth Amendments

📊 $2.5T in mandatory spending cuts = coming for Social Security’s $2.9T reserve.
Not one penny of Social Security contributes to the debt they claim to care about. This isn’t fiscal responsibility. It’s playing games with people’s hard-earned benefits. Learn more ➡️ bit.ly/4ftv3hl

There is no way to cut $2.5T in spending unless you make cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
My parent’s social security check should not be cut to pay for President Elon Musk’s massive billionaire tax cuts.
