I like it because it might get people thinking about a general strike. It's not time for that yet, but where we're possibly headed.

As Attorney General, Brad Schimel sued to overturn the #AffordableCareAct and take away healthcare from Wisconsin families.

Musk is a foreigner trying to pass as American.

But the dude resigned, is Musk making him come back involuntarily?

A three-part strategy to respond to this crisis.
1. Fight back against the MAGA/DOGE assault on our country and hold all GOP politicians accountable.
