The bar for morals, respect, values & integrity have been lost under Trump. There is no bottom. You can disagree with Walz & his policies, but you have no right to attack & bully his autistic son calling him a “retard.” 😡 You MAGA, calling yourselves Christians, are disgusting.

Your voice is more powerful than threats from a weakening, unpopular president. If they hear enough from you now, legislators may still do the right thing.

Indiana Republicans are under significant pressure to do something they know is wrong: rig the maps and silence voters.
Washington Republicans are demanding a "9–0 map." That’s not democracy - that’s cheating. They know it, and they’re ashamed, which is why they’re hesitating.

41 minutes of watching two shipwrecked men trying to flip a boat and signaling for surrender/help before firing on them again reminds me of the 9.5 minutes Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, in that it’s an agonizingly long time to be killing helpless people who clearly posed no threat.
