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.
.@JamesTalarico on Texas officially banning THC:
“This bill is insane.
Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. Texans will still use THC — but instead of getting it safely from a local small business, they’ll go back to getting it from the black market. From the drug cartels.
This ban is a gift to the cartels.
We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst.
Instead of fully funding our schools, guaranteeing healthcare, or making childcare more affordable — this Legislature is focused on banning a product that gives people a little peace.
We’re making people’s lives harder, not easier.
I want to leave you with a quote: ‘It is time to end needless arrests and incarcerations of adults for small amounts of marijuana for personal use.’ That wasn’t a Democrat. That was President Donald Trump.
To my Republican colleagues, I’m asking you to oppose the cartels, stand with President Trump, and vote no on this insane bill.”
It's way beyond cognitive tests. We're in serious trouble with this guy in charge. There's a war going on and he's posting himself as Elvis.
How the hell long do we sit back and allow this to happen to us?
Has everyone lost their minds?

Cornyn and Tillis folding on Blanche is the most predictable thing ever. They are cowards. The minute Blanche is confirmed, there’s nothing stopping him from reneging on this weaponization fund deal they’ve made. Vote for Democrats if you want a Congress that might actually stand up to this fascist administration.
C-SPAN caller: If you don’t have enough money to retire, don’t retire. Stop being so lazy!
Me: That might as well be the Republican Party’s message in the midterms because they don’t have a single idea that might actually improve your life. Meanwhile, Trump is stealing billions of dollars from American taxpayers.
