Calling all good Resisters. I followed Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell here. Senator Amy Klobuchar for Minority Leader. Schumer vs. a head of Lettuce; Hegseth vs. a head of Lettuce, any bets? Thank you, UK. Please follow back #Resistance

More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act.

I’ve never voted for a president who thinks his job is to sell crappy goods with his name on it for profit like he’s in a 3am infomercial.

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

By voting to financially reward states with the HIGHEST error rates, Republicans turned incentives for fraud upside down. πŸ™ƒ States like Alaska & 9 others that make the most mistakes in SNAP benefits go scot-free from SNAP cost shifts for two years while the rest pay.

Since it is Juneteenth, I will share a lil something...

My ancestors were slaves in Texas & were freed on June 19, 1865. They came together to meet with other ex-slaves & formed the Limestone County 19th of June Organization. They bought 30 acres of land on Lake Mexia.
