Voting rights

There is no need for the SAVE act. Our elections are not endangered by non citizens voting; the incidence of this happening is vanishingly low. Our elections are not in danger from people voting twice or unregistered people voting; these occurrences are rare. Our elections ARE in danger from big mon

As I have been doing, I am sending a plea by the prescribed means to try and reach the deaf ears of lawmakers. It becomes a grind but it seems to be the absolutely I can do to put up some sort of resistance to what is happening in this fragmented and decaying husk of a republic. A husk, largely made

Executive branch

This administration is rotten from top to bottom. We need to demand impeachment of Trump and Vance, as they are clearly here to profit off the American people rather than serve them. As a result, they filled the cabinet with yes men and incompetents who are endangering lives globally.

Economic Boycott

We need more than the same tired "Donate to DEMS" to win upcoming elections. With Trump defying the law, trampling our Constitution, there may not be another free election in my lifetime.

So it’s the department of education this week. It’s horrifying that Democrat leadership and representatives can’t even stand up and say this isn’t okay.

Reconsider abolishing Department of Education through executive order

The Trump administration's plan to abolish the Department of Education through an executive order is a drastic measure that could have severe consequences for the nation's education system.
