If you are in a red state, flood your Governor’s offices with phone calls demanding to know what the plan will be if Medicaid and Meals on Wheels and SNAP and Headstart don’t receive funding this week. This is on them for going along with a insane autocrat.
Call them. They knew.
Call them. They knew.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

The MO GOP, emboldened with supermajorities and a full sweep of statewide offices, is hell-bent on overturning the abortion amendment.
Voters who voted Republican because they thought the abortion amendment would protect women will have a rude awakening.
Our job is to explain who's responsible.
