If you sat down a random panel of Americans and told them what Republicans are currently doing, my guess is that the vast majority simply wouldn't believe you. It comes off like you're describing a Bond villain. The reality sounds wildly different & more extreme than what they hear organically.

School vouchers aren’t about “freedom.” They’re a workaround to dodge diversity!

They allow this this to happen…

• Reject LGBTQ+ students
• Exclude kids with disabilities
• Teach whitewashed curriculum

And draining public schools to do it.

Allison Riggs won her election to North Carolina’s Supreme Court by 734 votes

Her opponent has since been trying to overturn the result

With 1 Senate and 14 House seats up in 2026

And the GOP’s constant attempts to gerrymander the state

This decision for Riggs could flip both Houses of Congress

100%. We are under attack.
The only headline the media should be running, day after day, and night after night is: Donald Trump continues to be the #1 National Security Threat!

Don’t let him pull you off of the highest priority story.

Who can turn down Andy's 88-year old mother?

I can't!!
My 88-year old mom who is the most anti-MAGA advocate, balances her work with doing great work for humanity!

She's been my biggest supporter of Heidy, the domestic violence and recent fire victim in the Eaton fire!

Please chip in below in her honor -- it could be $10, $25, $50 or more -- thanks!

Planes were briefly “flying blind” into Newark Liberty International Airport last week after a communications blackout occurred. Sources said the outage lasted 90 seconds on April 28th and shook up the on-duty controllers so much that some were placed on “trauma leave.”
Control Meltdown Left Planes ‘Flying Blind’ at Major Airport
Air traffic controllers lost contact with planes flying into Newark Liberty International Airport last week. A “fried piece of copper wire” may be to blame.

In Minnesota, we’re not walking away from the commitments we’ve made to our schools, to our health care, to flighting climate change, to public safety, to feeding our kids, and to taking care of seniors.

"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat."
