They earned hundreds of millions from token sales while dismantling oversight and granting pardons to crypto-linked figures.

Trump and Musk are doing everything they can to try and force Ukraine to surrender to Putin while Musk spends over $300 million to try and buy the midterm elections to maintain total power. The American government under Republicans are on the side of evil. Vote them out.

SCOTUS in 2022: Five months before Election Day is too late for Louisiana to redraw its GOP House map that harms Black voters. It must wait until 2024. SCOTUS in 2026: Louisiana may cancel its imminent primary—where >40,000 already voted—to enact basically the same old map that harms Black voters

Sen. Mark Kelly tells Scott MacFarlane that Pete Hegseth is a uniquely unqualified individual: In our country’s history, we have not had a less qualified secretary of defense…

Kegs Breath is a White Christian Nationalist. He is not fighting for or with American values. He is fighting against both. His anti-American department of war should receive zero funding. #hegseth #dod #funding
