Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.
He embodies the broken system we’re running against.
It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton
I didn’t know about the earliest origin of Memorial Day until I was a grown-ass man, and it’s because some folks didn’t want us to.
In 2021, organizers at an Ohio Memorial Day ceremony muted retired Army Lt. Col. Barnard Kemter for nearly two minutes the moment he began discussing how formerly enslaved Black Americans exhumed the remains of Union soldiers to give them proper burials.

"Veteran's Against Fascism," including disabled veterans, were arrested inside of the Capitol building today as they staged a protest against Trump's war in Iran.
This is Trump's America.
The PBS NewsHour has documented the Trump family's unprecedented conflicts of interest. Jared Kushner, a 'volunteer' with no official position, has $6 billion in assets from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar-the same governments he is negotiating with on Middle East peace. Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump have invested in drone companies that are now competing for Pentagon contracts in the war their father started.
Forbes estimated that Eric and Don Jr., they were worth about $40, $50 million each before the 2024 election. About a year later, Eric at $400 million and Donald Trump Jr. at about $300 million.
They're using war and diplomacy to enrich themselves

🚨 The United States is allowing Iran to collect $14 billion in oil revenue.
The first time America has bought Iranian oil since 1996.
In the middle of a war against Iran.
Trump's Save Act forces 45 states to refuse driver's licenses, Real ID, student ID and military ID as valid voter ID.
Already-registered voters will be turned away from the polls if they don't obtain and bring a $165.00 U.S. passport or a $25.00 to $35.00 birth certificate copy.
It also forces all states to turn over your private voter information and voting records to Trump for selective purging.
It's not "Just ID."
BREAKING:
Israel is dropping white phosphorus on the village of Khiam in South Lebanon.
On homes.
On civilian areas.
This is a war crime.
Not a peep from the international community.
Not a word from the International Criminal Court.
BREAKING:
Israel just bombed the Lebanese National Public University in Beirut.
They murdered the Director of the Faculty of Science, Dr. Hussein Bazzi, and Dr. Murtada Srour.
They are not just killing people — they are erasing knowledge and attacking the future of Lebanon.
Smartmatic — the voting machine company at the heart of Trump's 2020 election lies — just accused the Trump Justice Department of vindictive and selective prosecution, saying that DOJ is now bringing a criminal case against them to further the Trump admin's baseless lies about that vote.
