Allowing one unelected man to have control over crucial aspects of the US military, allied militaries, the US space program, and so many other aspects of human life is absolutely insane. We were stupid to allow this to happen and it must be fixed ASAP.

Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

Remember when Pete Hegseth's mom wrote him a letter telling him he was a misogynistic POS?

Again: Why does Musk have operational control over any *military grade* version of anything. That’s not how DOD contracts work.

Mike Rogers was just caught on tape talking about how he wanted to make sure that there were retired cops who could intimidate voters in the city of Detroit. We deserve the right to vote. People have fought and died for that right. No more election deniers.

Tomorrow is the day, the day we turn our protest into votes. Find a 🚫👑event near you and get out there and have your voice heard. #VoteEarlyOnNoKings is how we will get back to a Congress that will restore checks and balances and hold the Trump administration accountable. LFG‼️

On Oct. 15, 2025, I asked the Supreme Court to uphold equal representation for Black voters in Louisiana v. Callais. The extremist majority destroyed the Voting Rights Act instead. We can fight back by VOTE-MAXXING: every eligible voter to go to the polls and take our democracy back. LDF.vote

Stop what you are doing because you need to read this. Billions of dollars in oil trades were perfectly timed to Trump’s decision to back off attacking Iranian power plants. Trump announced the reversal just 15 minutes after those trades were placed.

A Massachusetts woman pays $500 a month to get her electricity from a privately owned utility. Her neighbor, less than 2,000 feet away, pays just $130 a month because he’s served by a publicly owned utility. How are privately owned utilities getting away with this price gouging? Watch.

Susan Collins cannot be trusted with voting on our next Supreme Court Justice. She voted for the three justices that overturned Roe v. Wade. And she's going to do the same damn thing if Alito retires unless we win this election.

He promised to cut energy bills in half in 6 months and gas prices would be under $2. He never said he couldn’t do that because he’s “inheriting a mess.” He said he would do it & it would be easy. So he can try & blame Biden now all he wants, but he blatantly lied & is a buffoon.

By ushering in this idiot, Roger Wicker, Chairman of the Armed Services Committee, has done more to destroy the US Military than any Senator in modern history. It is his legacy.

Hegseth: "We need students of western civilization and the pillars of our republic. Leaders who understand the faith of Jerusalem, the philosophy of anthems -- Athens. The power of Rome, and the freedom of Philadelphia circa 1776."

Arlington Cemetery is hallowed ground. A final resting place for our fallen heroes who were brave enough to serve. How dare this five-time draft dodger dishonor them by trying to erect a monument to his own vanity? Veterans will not let him get away with it.

Sen Republicans are plottinh to quickly extend the federal debt ceiling through the end of Trump’s term should they lose control of Congress, aiming to prevent Dems from leveraging the issue. Every Sen Republican including Collins should have to answer whether they will enable Trump this way.
