Republicans are ATTACKING your healthcare instead of doing anything to make it more accessible or affordable. Republicans don’t care about your health. MAHA was a lie.

Memorable Presidential Quotes In History From FDR: "The only thing we have to fear... is fear itself." From JFK: "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." From our Vulgarian-In-Chief:

“If the race were tonight, we’d win this race. I firmly believe that,” said a confident Democratic gubernatorial candidate David Jolly last week. “This race is following the trajectory that we’d hoped it would.”

The 2024 version ended with Trump’s campaign logo and a number to text. The new version ends with: “Paid for by the U.S. Government.”

We found some more fraud, waste, and abuse. The third government-funded Trump ad has been identified by AdImpact in recent days. The latest ad is nearly identical to a video Trump posted during his 2024 presidential campaign. It shows him walking down a hallway declaring, “This is the final battle.”

⛽️ Florida’s gas prices rose 18 cents last week before declining 6 cents through the weekend. On Sunday, the state average for a gallon of gas was $4.37. That’s $1.42 per gallon more than last year. The average driver is now paying $65 to fill their tank, as opposed to $44 at this time last year.

American taxpayers have spent BILLIONS on Trump’s reckless and costly war of choice. Meanwhile, they can barely put food on the table or fill up their gas tanks. No one asked for this war. END THE WAR NOW.

Trump officially rolled back fuel efficiency standards today. The new target for 2031 is about 34.5 miles per gallon, down from 50.4. That means more gas burned, more pollution, and more money out of drivers’ pockets. So much for making things affordable.

Nothing says “golden age” like record high gas and grocery prices.

ICE wasted millions of taxpayer dollars to fund their fascist hate machine

He kept yelling "I'm a U.S. citizen." They kept him pinned to the sidewalk anyway. He left in an ambulance with injuries to his head, neck, and teeth. DHS calls it "without further incident." www.jackhopkinsnow.com

THREE WEEKS FROM TODAY!!! Join the MAGA Resistance & make your voices heard. Accountability. Is. Coming.

Just 41 days until Election Day. Gas and diesel prices are surging, and Trump told the UN he expects an Iran deal only after the midterms. With the war nearing its seventh month, even Republican candidates are now calling for it to end. The political pressure is closing in fast.

Reminder. 💚✊

House Republicans and Speaker Mike Johnson are running home to campaign instead of doing their jobs.

Trump said that he is banning CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House, “effective immediately,” citing what he called their constant reporting of “FAKE NEWS” as the reason.

There are different ways you can have a say and influence decisions that are made in the city and county. We will be holding a local government workshop at Progress Hub on Thursday October 8th in partnership with @unitehere362.bsky.social and Unite Here Local 737

The government that is closest to the people, is most accountable to the people - a lot of what makes daily life more difficult isn't coming from the state or federal levels, a lot come from the school board, county commission or the city council.

The Trump administration and House Republicans are not listening to urgent warnings about the dangers of AI. Instead of working to pass legislation and put in guardrails, Mike Johnson sent Congress home early. It’s reckless.

Huge turnout at the Kennedy Center tonight! 💚✊ Thank you!

Housing, healthcare, education, and no data centers. It’s really that simple.

Last Day of Biden Vs. Trump: 🔹 Gas: $3.12 → $4.32 🔹 Diesel: $3.63 → $6.29 🔹 Inflation: 2.9% → 3.4% 🔹 Wage growth: 3.9% → 3.1% 🔹 Real wage growth: +1.0% → -0.3% 🔹 GDP growth: 2.8% in 2024 → 1.5% in Q2 2026 🔹 And the U.S. is now at war with Iran.

Today is National Voter Registration Day. As November 3rd creeps around the corner, everyone needs to make sure they are prepared to vote and make sure your vote counts. 🧵

NEW: Trump's war with Iran has cost taxpayers $38 BILLION.    This war is making it more expensive to fill up your tank and put food on the table. It must end NOW.

Booker eviscerates Patel: "He's like an 18 year old kid who wants to join a fraternity that he could never be a member of, doing keg stands and chugging with friends. He's an embarrassment. He is a disgrace. This is a mockery and a sham. What's bad are the people enabling him."

Today is National Voter Registration Day! 🇺🇸 If you’re not registered, register. If you are, take a minute to check your registration and make sure everything is up to date. Your voice matters. Your vote matters. Make sure you’re ready for Election Day. 💙 #GetReadyToVote

Voting Rights Groups Are Preparing to Confront ICE at the Polls Trusted figures such as firefighters and clergy will protect Black, Latino, and Asian precincts that could be targets.

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

This shirt made my day. 🤣
