Remember when we warned that SAVE Act would create unnecessary barriers for eligible voters?
The response was always the same:
“Just get the paperwork.”
Well, Florida is showing us what “just get the paperwork” actually looks like.
A Florida woman and Army veteran found that out when she ran into problems getting a REAL ID because she couldn’t produce a marriage record from 50 years ago to connect her name history.
Think about that. A citizen and Army veteran stuck because one old document was missing. Now expand that across the country. Millions upon millions of Americans have identity histories that don’t fit into one perfect government record. Marriage, adoption, divorce, immigration, court-ordered name changes, and simple clerical errors all create gaps.
The SAVE Act would add more opportunities for those gaps to become barriers. As is being proven in Florida.
Republicans have been lying to you.
Trump’s signing an executive order today creating a “Military Spouse Commission” advisory board that doesn’t change a single law, fund a single program, or put one new benefit in the hands of military families.
And Pete Hegseth’s wife is the chair.
It’s a workaround from our corrupt government to “legitimize” her tagging along on her husband’s official trips while having her travel, lodging, meals, and other expenses reimbursed through the Defense Department’s budget.
Just another fucking scam.
WATCH — @abbydphillip to @TimParrishVA: “Trump’s sons are doing business deals that have a direct relationship with the 🇺🇸 government… the double standard is YOUR problem. If you had a problem with Hunter Biden, you should have 10x the problem with the Trumps.”
Two top Republicans, both originally pro-Trump, confirm the US attacked Spain using Morocco as a proxy.
US paid Morocco at least $40M two weeks before the Ceuta breach. People were reportedly lured into participating through social media, while the breach was amplified as a "migrant invasion" online by US, Israeli and Russian disinformation and disruption networks, and compromised media networks and politicians on right wing legacy media.
Just a reminder that the president of the United States recently had to pay almost $6 million to the woman he sexually abused and defamed, and not one reporter has asked him about it.
Watchdog group Democracy Forward sends demand letter to Justice Dept seeking "under oath" statement that the Trump slush fund is truly dead:
"The Acting Atty General has still refused to provide a sworn statement under penalty of perjury"
Democracy Fwd sued to challenge fund
Lyme disease DID NOT come from gain of function research. Borrelia has been known to be in nature at least 60,000 years of recorded history. RFK Jr knows that and is spreading lies.
So @FoxNews spent weeks talking about the “vandals” destroying the reflecting pool. Now the the Govt has admitted that Trump hired terrible contractors who screwed it up and dropped the charges against the “vandal” our friends at @FoxNews have no coverage of that fact.
So in the minds of most Fox viewers, it was still vandalized.
They are the worst.
The most disturbing aspect of RFKs interview yesterday wasn’t the vaccine misinfo or the Fauci bashing- we expected that. It was that America’s top health official in no way seems to have a plan or takes any ownership of historic (and harmful + costly) outbreaks occurring on his watch.
Leadership isn’t blaming everything on others – it’s acknowledging there’s a problem and you’re the boss and saying “I will deal with it.” instead we are told that increasing outbreaks – the likes of which we’ve not had in decades (or ever) – are now the price for our “freedom.”
The corruption is stunning. This deal "shields all the Trumps and their businesses not only from enforcement of any taxes they may have dodged, or enforcement of any fines or payments they may owe to the government, but from ‘any and all’ consequences for violating any federal criminal or civil law." And @JohnCornyn and @SenThomTillis are ok with this.

An important warning from @meiselasb that the “sham document” Blanche’s advancement seems to rely upon showing the insurrectionist slush fund is *dead* is actually “unenforceable”

The U.S. National Debt is $40T
Donald Trump accumulated $16T of that $40T
In just 6 years, Donald Trump has been responsible for 40% of the debt our country has ever accumulated in 250 years.
While Americans struggle with rising gas prices and inflation, big oil is making billions from the Iran War.
Oil industry profits have more than doubled in just a year, reaching their third highest level in history.
In his live video, Max Miller stated that the allegations only stemmed from his ex-wife.
Wrong.
There are allegations that he:
- Threw a girl down the stairs in high school
- Was expelled from college for a violent incident involving a female student
- Abused his ex-girlfriend Stephanie Grisham
