Can you hear that constant racket coming from the data center near Dowagiac, Michigan? That endless jet-engine hum is the sound of cooling systems running 24/7. Try spending a full night listening to that noise first before supporting them. #RepublicansLoveDataCenters

It is unbelievable that a president thinks they understand a community's water and power needs better than the local residents. Expecting governors to push data centers onto towns that have already said no is pure arrogance. People living there know their land best #RepublicansLoveDataCenters

An estimated 9 million Americans just turned out for No Kings in a single day. On Saturday, crowds poured into more than 2,500 events and rallies across the country for the fourth round of No Kings, according to estimates reported by NPR.

Trump’s DHS searched Ilhan Omar’s home 22 days before her election. No charges. No public evidence. But MAGA is celebrating anyway. They spent years calling the Mar-a-Lago search a witch hunt, then cheer when federal agents show up at a Trump critic’s door. #TrumpsAbuseOfPower

Corruption is not a Washington word. It is a $16 million Reflecting Pool job that was supposed to cost $1.5 million, and services you do not get because somebody’s friend got the contract. They spend your money. You still get a vote. #TrumpsAbuseOfPower

Putin’s war has left Ukrainian families burying loved ones and children waking up to air-raid sirens. Trump answered by helping Russia sell diesel to the world. More cash for Putin’s killing machine, and still no relief for your gas bill. #TrumpsAbuseOfPower

Trump blew $11 million of your money on ads starring Trump, then refused to pay taxpayers back after a judge said the campaign violated the Hatch Act. Your money. His face. And he still thinks you should eat the cost. #TrumpsAbuseOfPower

Gemini and Crypto.com faced SEC investigations. Trump’s SEC dropped them. Then the companies, executives, & investors tied to those cases sent more than $210 million to Trump-aligned super PACs. That’s a hell of a return on investment and it didn’t help you. #TrumpsAbuseOfPower

For most of Virginia’s history, English wasn’t the primary language spoken here. Indigenous peoples lived in the region for an estimated 12,000 years before English settlers arrived at Jamestown in 1607.

RFK Jr. wants fewer vaccines on the federal schedule. For 35 million kids on Medicaid or CHIP, that can mean vaccines kids need are no longer guaranteed or available. Trump & corrupt Republicans are putting children at risk for an anti-vax agenda. #RepublicanHealthcareCrisis

Imagine choosing between dinner & the doctor. One in three Americans has to do that. Republicans looked at the suffering & chose Medicaid cuts anyway. They really don’t give a damn. Make them answer for it at the ballot box! #RepublicanHealthcareCrisis
