@SpeakerJohnson The Constitution provides that states primarily control the administration of elections. Congress can pass legislation, to lower the voting age to 18, but the states have the right to administer.
@JohnStrandUSA The founding fathers never conceived of women working outside of the house. Or go back another 2,000 more years, and they never conceived of women being more than property of men.
@TheMaineWonk@brennz There are so many MAGA apologists on X! It is really pathetic. Similar to the Chinese nationalist in China! Except in the US with the first amendment, there are more opportunities to know the truth.

@Michele_Tafoya The ACA did not address costs. So insurance companies (Anthem Blue Cross, United healthcare...) charge a great amount. My ACA HMO policy for 2026 is over $1,500 per month just for me.
@RandPaul Perhaps because the rich are getting richer and the poor poorer due to regressive tax policies and tax cuts that lead to massive deficit spending.
@badboujeebabee@ABC The US GDP constitutes approximately 26% of the world's total nominal GDP. The Trump administration has made $0 payments to the UN in 2025. The US is $1.5 billion in arrears.
@MICHAELSTATEN5@ABC How can individuals in Maryland, for example, withhold federal income tax and give it to the state? Or how could the state of Maryland confiscate federal income tax funds? Doesn't make sense!
@pakistan_proudi@ABC Good point! These tariffs are largely illegal. Hopefully the Supreme Court will uphold the lower courts' rulings and strike them down. All the tariff money that has been collected will have to be returned! What a shit show!
@rubytubee@ABC It's Powell's fault because interest rates are a point too high. Right! It has nothing to do with $2 trillion deficits (over 6% of GDP), job-killing tariffs, raiding factories and mass deportations...
