Democrats need to stop voting for any trump cabinet nominees and any republican legislation.
Have they forgotten republicans voted against everything Democrats attempted to achieve?
And Democrats were attempting to help the country. Republicans are trying to destroy it.
Stop helping them!

In 2004, I interviewed for a teaching position. The principal asked me how many kids I had. I answered. He asked if I was planning to have more —said he couldn’t afford to have another teacher out on maternity leave.
This is why women need protections, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

I’m a gun owner, and I respect the rights of responsible gun owners. That said, the second amendment will continue to be watered with the blood of children until the laws change.

We basically talked about being brave. Now more than ever, we need to be brave
I’ve admired her from afar but today was the first time I had the chance to speak directly with @mollyjongfast.bsky.social
Her commitment to truth and honesty in her reporting is something I’ve tried to emulate in my own.
If you aren’t following her, you are missing out! Thank you Molly!

There are now multiple sources confirming the initial reports of a fair election, and that it has indeed come down to about 250K votes in the steel belt. I would personally like for these sources to come forward and speak on it. I don't get the silence.
