The lie that illegal immigrants are voting in our elections continues. The few voter fraud cases prosecuted have proven to NOT be illegal immigrants. This is clearly an excuse to make registration and voting more restrictive and difficult for US citizens to use their constitutional right.

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country.

Otherwise, it’s just racism.

A new analysis finds that projected growth from the GOP budget's tax cuts would only cover 2.7% of their $3.8T cost.

That's nowhere close to the cuts "paying for themselves." 

Notice how nobody ever asks, "but how will we pay for it" when it comes to trickle-down economics?

So many alarming provisions hidden the House Buget bill. Weakening the judicial branches power to hold tge administration ‘s ability to flaunt the constitution and to escape the consequences is WRONG‼️

According to ProPublica, more than a dozen top executive branch officials and congressional aides sold stocks just before Trump's "Liberation Day" market crash. 

Today would be a great day to ban public servants from trading stocks, don't you think?

Biden was just diagnosed with aggressive cancer. 1. F*ck you to all the vultures who have fixated on his health while ignoring both Trump's current mental condition and dismembering of democracy. 2. Even at 50% capacity, Biden was 100 times the President Trump will ever be.

Results when voters choose the R when voting on down-ballot offices. Dist 10 had 2 better qualified options-the Democrat, 10 yr Maize school board member and Independent, a solar energy scientist who values public education. Nope…R voters voted for the candidate that homeschools her children.

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.
