Between this woman, Dr. Oz, and RFK Jr., our national health will take be devastated by a resurgence of disease.

Secretary Pete is the leader we need. I see a bright future for him at the national level.

More Lies About Project 2025 Today, we learned that Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts will delay the publication of his book, β€œDawn’s Early Light,” (foreword by GOP VP nominee J.D.

1/After Trump claimed he didn't know anything about Project 2025, I wrote several columns for my newsletter, Civil Discourse, documenting that wasn't true. Now that he's appointed Russ Vought to his cabinet, here's a little refresher b/c Project 2025 is coming joycevance.substack.com/p/more-lies-...

RNC speaker Pam Bondi was once in a 16-month custody battle over a dog with Hurricane Katrina victims Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi refused to return a St. Bernard she adopted from a rescue shelter to the family it belonged to.

Pam Bondi refused to return their dog to a family of Katrina victims after she "adopted" their dog. She fought them in court for 16 months before she gave the dog back. Disqualifying. Character counts. www.businessinsider.com/rnc-speaker-...

Could’ve had
$25,000 to buy a house
$6,000 child credit
$50,000 business credit

But you went for the $1200 check that’s never happening. And now prices are going to go up $3000/year from tariffs alone, with no stimulus checks in sight.

Sigh.

Wouldn't it be swell if Nancy Mace defended women from rapists and sex traffickers in her own party as fiercely as she is defending the Capitol bathroom?

I don't want to sound alarmist or anything, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to skip FBI background checks and bury congressional ethics reports about nominees to the most important posts in the federal government.

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

Of course. Trump would never seriously consider a person of color.

Many people think that as you get older, you care less about politics. But it’s not true.

You start thinking a lot more about the kind of world you want to leave behind. You want it to be better than the one you were born into.

We all have a personal legacy in mind. Mine is to outlive Trumpism.

Whenever they want to bury an ethics report, you just know there is something bad in it that they want to hide. Our legislators must demand to see that report before Gaetz is put into a cabinet position. Better still, leak it to the public.
