Is @merkley.senate.gov doing what @booker.senate.gov did and weβre only paying a small amount of attention?????
Also, Merkley has been training for something for the past three months and he said it was a race to save the Senate but now Iβm wondering if it was for this

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

Gov. Greg Abbott pardons Daniel Perry, veteran who killed police brutality protester in 2020
A Travis County jury sentenced Perry to 25 years in prison last year, prompting Abbott to ask the state parole board to review his case.
I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer.
The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial.
Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class.
This is Kirk's legacy.

Can you share this? This is one hell of an ad from a Democrat running for US Senate against Susan Collins. We need to take back the Senate and have a real majority. Donβt forget Maine has ranked voting. We need great Democrats running.

College students are bombarded by misinformation, so this professor taught them fact-checking 101 β hereβs what happened
Just 2Β½ hours of online instruction made students a lot better at identifying misinformation on YouTube and TikTok.
Adding just six hours of media literacy training to an American Government course significantly improved studentsβ ability to identify credible sources and boosted their confidence in evaluating where information comes from.
