🚨BREAKING: Washington DC federal court BLOCKS Postal Service mail-in ballot rule. First court to prohibit USPS from taking steps to allow voluntary compliance with anti-voting rule.

A victory for ELG and our clients DSCC, DCCC, DNC, DGA and Leaders Schumer and Jeffries!

Notice how Dr. Amy Acton isn't out here demanding a ballroom.

As of today 61 fatal plane crashes under @SeanDuffyWI

Every single cabinet head has been hired to make us sicker, dumber, weaker and literally kill us. Welcome to Project 2025.

If they are able to steal this midterm election, it will be our last

This woman, @KatiePhang, has done more for Epstein's victims in 24 hours than most politicians have done in 24 years.

Give her a round of applause!

[Ilene @IKSMICH]

You really need to stop this stupidity. Why don’t you actually do something for the citizens of your state that elected you. Focus on what matters to them.

[Rand Paul @RandPaul]

Anthony Fauci’s deleted files are no accident. This is a deliberate cover-up to prevent Congress and the American people from receiving the truth. I will keep pushing for full accountability and transparency until every record is uncovered and those responsible are held to account.

Hey @Delta, my wife and I booked Delta One to Italy for our honeymoon. I let the airline know long ago that she can��t eat gluten or dairy. I even spent a half hour on the phone with your disability department days ago to confirm.

We are now on board and they have no meal for her on a 9+ hour overnight flight. No dinner. No breakfast.

This is a horrible thing to do to someone and a really shitty way to start our honeymoon.

This is after we sprinted through Atlanta airport to make our flight after our first flight was delayed.

Completely and totally unacceptable.

Hey @google I’d like to report an error.

The lake that borders New York and Ontario is an international body of water, and it is widely agreed by the entire world, except one rogue leader, that the name of this lake is “Lake Ontario”

Grow a spine and fix it.

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

Americans can't afford to fill up their tank.
Groceries keep going up.
Millions have lost health care.

And our President is spending his day renaming a lake.

What a joke.

[Rep. Debbie Dingell @RepDebDingell]

When President Trump is done doing arts and crafts in the Oval, I’d suggest he turn his attention to his failed economy that is raising costs, eliminating jobs, and leaving working men and women behind.

[Mark Carney @MarkJCarney]

The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.

The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.

We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.

Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.

I am begging everybody to spend less time arguing about Hasan Piker and more time attacking Republicans. The election is in about two months. Lock the fuck in.

You have blood on your hands. You allowed this ghoul, RFK Jr to lie and repeat nonsense.
Shame.

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

The only thing RFK Jr has restored is measles

[David Gorski, MD, PhD @gorskon]

This is on @SenBillCassidy as much as it is on @SecKennedy and the incompetent antivaxxers he's hired at HHS. Senator, YOU voted to advance RFK Jr.'s nomination out of YOUR committee, and YOU voted to confirm him. YOU are as much to blame as he is.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

You literally voted to put a longtime anti-vaxxer in charge of public health and have refused to apologize for it. Now you’re seeing the consequences of your vote. Spare us the statements.

You own this mess.

[Ilene @IKSMICH]

You voted for this. You own this.

[U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. @SenBillCassidy]

No one needs to die from measles in 2026. Misinformation and misguided policies are leaving children unprotected against a disease we know how to prevent.

The vaccine is safe and effective. Parents should talk to their doctor about protecting their children from this disease.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Here is a video of you voting to confirm RFK Jr. as HHS Secretary despite his claims that the "cure for measles is chicken soup"

[Ilene @IKSMICH]

You will vote for her anyway. No one can trust you.

[U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. @SenBillCassidy]

While I respect Dr. Overton’s experience as a physician, I have strong concerns about her nomination to be FDA Commissioner. Her lack of managerial experience does not prepare her well for leading a large organization that is already dealing with staffing and morale issues. Additionally, Dr. Overton’s active role in last week’s nonsensical vaccine executive order calls into question her commitment to standing up for sound science and protecting children’s health. That alone is almost disqualifying.
