Wisconsin State Rep. Deb Andraca (D-Whitefish Bay) asks her GOP colleagues why their proposed tax credit for farmers was not indexed to inflation, but a tax credit for private school tuition was.
No one answers. The room was silent for 35 seconds.
Listen up folks…don’t let them steal your vote. Follow George’s advice…if your name does not appear on the register. Tell them…”I REQUEST A PROVISIONAL BALLOT AS REQUIRED BY LAW. “ Republicans are doing everything possible to prevent you from voting, such as purging names. 😡
103 years ago on November 2-3, during Election Day in 1920, the single bloodiest day in modern America political history happened, The Ocoee Massacre.
A black man attempted to vote & the Ku Klux Klan responded with rampage that led to the exile/death of every black person that lived there
—The dark day in Florida's history escalated after one Black citizen tried to exercise his right to vote at a polling location but was turned away on Election Day.
Mose Norman, who had been part of the voter registration drive in Orange County, decided to vote in the national election on November 2. When he attempted to do so, twice, he was turned away from the polls.
When Norman was driven away the second time, a white mob, then numbering over 100 men, decided to hunt him down. Concluding he had taken refuge in the home of another local Black resident, Julius “July” Perry, they rushed Perry’s home hoping to capture both men there. Norman escaped and was never found while Perry defended his home, killing two white men, Elmer McDaniels and Leo Borgard, who tried to enter through the back door. The mob called for reinforcements from Orlando and surrounding Orange County. Eventually they caught and killed Perry and hung his dead body from a telephone post by the highway from Ocoee to Orlando to intimidate other potential Black voters. Perry’s wife, Estelle Perry, and their daughter were wounded during the attack on the Perry home. They were sent to Tampa by local law enforcement officers.
The mob then turned on the Black community of Ocoee.
Homes and properties of Black families were scorched, burnt to the ground. At least four Black individuals were confirmed killed -- one of which was lynched, his body hanging from a tree limb for all to see.
On June 21, 2019, a historical marker honoring July Perry and others killed in the massacre was placed in Heritage Square outside the Orange County Regional History Center.

Donald Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win a second term, with the former president naming individuals he wants to investigate or prosecute. https://t.co/J8NixUVEYR
Mike Johnson on Fox News Sunday saying the quiet part out loud: he's ready to vote against contraception. It was never just about abortion. It was always about controlling women.
An unearthed clip shows Mike Johnson promoting an app called “Covenant Eyes” which “scans your devices” and “sends a report” to someone if you view “sinful” material. The app says “defeat porn.”
He has been scrubbing this from his pages. (@receiptmaven)
🚨UPDATE 3: Mike Johnson & his wife Kelly Renne Lary do own at least one home. It's worth roughly half a million. Kelly has her Onward Christian counseling center registered w her as the manager at same address as her home. @Kay4BlueTexas has been helping.
Updates to come. Ty.
The new Speaker of the House may be in debt.
“One of the reasons we have these financial disclosures is to know whether politicians are having financial difficulties—which could make them ripe for influence buying.”

The same Ivanka Trump, seen here acting as Donald Trump’s Senior White House advisor in the middle of a school week, claimed she couldn’t testify because it would cause her ‘undue hardship’ as it was scheduled in the middle of a school week.
Ivanka Trump is not a victim.
In 2017, Ivanka Trump’s charity received $100 million from Saudi Arabia.
in 2019 Ivanka Trump received trademarks from China for voting machines, body bags, & caskets.
She was illegally working a senior White House advisor during this time.
Who else wants an investigation?🤚
Senate Democrats are working to uncover details about SCOTUS's connections to rich GOP donors.
“There’s no question that some of the justices’ conduct has fallen outside the bounds of what would be considered acceptable for any other public official.”
