Did you know Missourians passed an anti-gerrymandering constitutional amendment in 2018?

Did you know that the Missouri GOP put it back on the ballot with deceptive language in 2020 and voters overturned the amendment? Voters were duped. Hoodwinked.

Republicans can’t win so they lie and cheat.

No money for Medicaid or SNAP or museums or schools or sidewalks or gun violence prevention or art or libraries.

Always money for war.

DEVELOPING: No warning. No reason. NYPD officers rushed into the crowd and tackled a protester this weekend.

His body was limp. He couldn’t move. He said, “I can’t feel my legs.”

He might never walk again. For showing up.

This is brutality. This is America.

CBS reporter Scott Pelley:

This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”.

If you haven’t already shared this, please do.

I spoke at an Empty Seat Townhall for Congressman Sam Graves in Marceline, Missouri, population 2K.

Sam hasn’t met with constituents since 2012. He’s been in DC for 24 years. This group would like to send him home.

RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated.

“Only very sick kids should die from measles.”

No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die.

Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!

It seems the junior Senator from Missouri is employing a Nazi in his office. I called his DC office and they said that it is “against policy” to state whether someone is employed with my taxpayer money to work for my junior Senator. Good to know… www.liberalcurrents.com/missouri-sen...

Nathan Hochman was fired from the DeSantis campaign for making a transparently neoNazi video featuring the Governor, and has only doubled down on his white nationalism since.

NEW: We sent a letter to Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. raising serious concerns with the proposed creation of a national autism "registry."

Data collection on autistic people could be ripe for abuse, and the government shouldn’t be shutting disabled people out of the conversation.
