BREAKING: Without any public input and before providing any flood relief, the Texas House just passed new congressional maps that further disenfranchise voters of color.

This is an affront to our fundamental right to vote. Texans should pick our politicians — not the other way around.

Texas politicians could've passed bills to help their constituents, such as supporting communities impacted by the recent floods.

Instead, they chose to target trans people.

“The only way anyone is going to realistically try to enforce this is by looking at a person and deciding they don’t look quite ‘feminine’ or ‘masculine’ enough,” said a policy strategist with the ACLU.

It always blows my mind that this isn’t a more widely known news events. This is the man who is now threatening to arrest Texas lawmakers. The “three drowning migrants” were a mom and her two little kids tangled in barbed wire Abbott put up. He then ordered no one to help.

I wonder how many Americans realize that Bribery is one of just two impeachable offenses specifically enumerated in the United States Constitution and the case that Donald Trump has now committed that crime dozens of times in his second term is a legal slam dunk.

So shall we get started?

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.
BREAKING: The FDA has officially announced they will be banning artificial dyes in the food supply by the end of 2026

This includes Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 1, Blue 2, Green 3

Please repeat over and over:

Trump created an environment of instability where it's impossible to make long term plans. Whether you're a company, investor, or anyone working to put food on the table.

The GOP only promises you more of this. If you want stability, you have to vote for it by voting them out.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Here’s an excellent idea… knowledgeable leaders in their respective areas who use that expertise to illuminate issues as they arise and become consistent voices, instead of relying on media outlets to deliver narratives on what’s taking place.
