What's the attack on the Department of Education really about?
It's about selling off our public schools to corporations and private equity companies so schools can be run to make a profit instead of to educate our kids.
It's about the destruction of our public schools.
Excellent explainer on how the SAVE act will make it more difficult for women to vote (and poor people, of course). It is back door voter suppression couched as protection:
I’m the dairy farmer running in the special election to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District.
Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?
This is a problem that Democrats have had… we’ve significantly underestimated how callous & selfish some people are. We’ve truly wanted to believe in the general goodness of humanity. The fact that people are ok with losing their jobs and healthcare, going into a Trump-induced recession, not being safe (militarily, medicinally, digitally, while flying, etc.), all in hopes that someone else will be hurt, is WILD… actually it’s downright Satanic, but this is where we are in this Country.
"I think DOGE is an unelected, unofficial, small group of young tech bros who are charging into different federal agencies getting into their core computer systems...copying and downloading reams of data," says Sen. Chris Coons. https://t.co/PZYEmGGtcM
Enormous lies here from your new HHS Secretary
The HPV vaccine (Gardasil) is safe, effective, and is on the way to ELIMINATING cervical cancer!
RFK Jr is an anti vaccine fanatic who would rather your daughter got cervical cancer than a vaccine
Horrible, horrible man.

Donald Trump’s administration is jeopardizing billions upon billions of community grants and financial support that help millions of people across the country.
It will mean missed payrolls and rent payments and everything in between: chaos for everything from universities to non-profit charities, state disaster assistance, local law enforcement, aid to the elderly, and food for those in need.
Jefferson Griffin and the NCGOP are still actively trying to throw out 60,000 ballots from eligible North Carolina voters. Hear directly from Mary Miller James, one of the voters targeted by Griffin:
ngl this entire interview all I was thinking is how much we’ve normalized just how wild republicans have gotten in this state and country. what matt said is truly egregious and it takes a constitutional principle of checks and balances on power and throws it to the wayside.
Today the @HouseGOP put out their rules for the next two years of Congress.
If you thought their dysfunction, disorganization, and disarray was bad before, buckle up, because it’s about to get even worse. A 🧵…
After North Carolina voters elected Democrat Justice Allison Riggs to keep her seat on the North Carolina Supreme Court, her Republican opponent is demanding that the court cancel lawfully cast ballots, overturn the election, and hand him a seat on the bench.
This is an outrageous attack on our democracy.
yo what’s a state chair gotta do to get @RepJeffries / @hakeemjeffries at our @NCDemParty rally to call attention to republican bullshit in our state and put the state legislature on notice that North Carolina ain’t going down without a fight?!?! 🥲🙏⬇️

🚨There is a five alarm fire happening in NC right now. In a truly outlandish move, Jefferson Griffin has now taken his attack on voters one step further. He is hiding behind Chief Justice Paul Newby and he is now trying to achieve what’s been aiming for all along: getting the Republican-controlled state Supreme Court to toss out legitimate ballots and hand this seat to him. There have been multiple recounts that all confirmed that Justice Riggs won this seat by 734 votes. His conduct continues to demonstrate that he is not fit to serve on the Court. Concede now. https://t.co/8hBNyDLPOi
