The right's War against Women needs to be stressed every day. We cannot accept parsed healthcare for over half our population. This poor woman lost her wanted child and now a grand jury is pondering whether she'll be fined and imprisoned. So disgusting.

No woman or man should have to beg the state of Texas for healthcare. How this attorney general still isn't in prison is baffling. It's all about the cruelty. Shame on them all.

This is a difficult piece to read and those that need to see this will refuse to look. The next representative that sports an AR 15 lapel pin needs to be thrown out of Washington. We all deserve better. Warning: this is a deeply disturbing article.

Eight days away from another government shutdown, which will have devastating effects on our economy, Republicans could only vote to lower the salaries of administration officials to $1.00 per year. Really going after the Press Secretary and the Secretary of Transportation is their response. Then they recessed for the weekend. House Republicans are incapable of governing. They want to crash the whole thing. Unreal.

I have multiple friends and relatives that act as election poll workers because they believe in free and fair elections. We need these folks. They can't be attacked for doing the lawful work that they do. I hope this woman gets a bundle from the town of Lynchburg, VA.
Sidney Powell ends up with a traffic ticket for subverting an election. She got off easy.
My Rep (Brian Fitzpatrick, R PA) is speaking out both sides of his butt. He released a statement calling out 8 extremist Republican caucus members that punished McCarthy for acting in a bipartisan manner but then votes yesterday to install one of those to be Speaker. I'm so tired of his phony bullshit.

Of course TFG tries to install this do-nothing legislator to head the House of Representatives. Always pushing the least qualified.
Question - why does the WaPo always identify the party affiliation (D) of the attorney general but not the party affiliation of the ex-president who's trying to regain power? Every time her name appears on the Post's page, it has that identifier. hmmm?
Just because you disagree with Trump's value system (or lack thereof) - that doesn't make you guilty of treason.

Grateful to Pennsylvania's Governor Shapiro trying to implement motor-voter registration in my state. If you're working towards getting fewer people registered to vote, just what is your agenda?
Moving back 100 plus years. Unbelievable that this is where we are.

Vaguely reminiscent of watching the Bronco ride from years ago. Tired of this clownshow. It's time to cancel this. He's obviously not honoring the SAG work stoppage.

Feeding homeless people shouldn't get you arrested. What part of Jesus' theology is confusing the great Christians in Texas? Disgusting.
Flew in from that other place. Very Glad to be here, people are central to social media that works.
