There’s no reason ever again for any Democrat to suggest moderating on trans rights. There was never a moral reason but now there’s no political reason either.

This is very rare in 2025, but people forget that Yersinia pestis still exists. Furthermore, it's endemic in rodents in some places...and one of those places is the southwestern

My daughter relies on Medicaid.
We don't "get" Medicaid.
We don't receive a check from Medicaid.
Medicaid covers her life-saving medical expenses.
Medicaid is health insurance.
Medicaid is health care.
That's what Medicaid is.
And that's why we need our senators to #VoteNo and #ProtectMedicaid.
