This is John Cornyn after the Nashville shooting. There's nothing more we can do? Oh, yes there is. First, ban assault weapons. Next, expanded bacground checks. After that, everyone takes a certified training course. There's plenty we can do. The GOP just doesn't have the political will to upset their megadonor, the NRA.
SORRY IF THIS MAKES SOME PEOPLE UNCOMFORTABLE, BUT WE NEED TO TURN THE HEAT UP ON THIS ISSUE. NOBODY NEEDS AN AR-15. WE KNOW WHAT IT'S USED FOR. WE NOW KNOW WHAT IT DOES TO THE HUMAN BODY.
YET, REP. BARRY MOORE (R-AL) HAS FILED LEGISLATION TO MAKE THIS OUR NATIONAL GUN? THAT IS SICK BEYOND BELIEF. THIS IS WHAT THE GOP SPENDS THEIR TIME DOING.
ALONG WITH ABORTION, THIS NEEDS TO BE A CENTRAL THEME FOR 2024.

LADIES (AND THEIR SUPPORTERS), I HOPE YOU'RE ALL TAKING NOTES FOR 2024. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THESE FASCISTS IS TO CODIFY ROE V. WADE. AND THAT CAN ONLY BE DONE WITH ENOUGH VOTES TO OVERRIDE THE FILIBUSTER. THAT MEANS 60-SEAT MAJORITY IN THE SENATE AND WINNING THE HOUSE BACK.
WITHOUT DOING THAT, EVERYTHING GETS WORSE.

Here's the latest mass shooting in Tennessee, a state where it's open or concealed carry without a permit. The shooter had two assault rifles and a hand gun. Joe Biden has once again called for passage of the Assault Weapons Ban legislation that has been continually stymied by the GOP.
Here she is: The candidate for all the non-thinkers and the factually challenged. The vacuous bimbo known as Lauren Boebert must be voted out in 2024. She has done jack shit to benefit the people. Let's get it right this time: His name is Adam Frisch.
Arkansas ranks #49 in health care; #48 in crime/corrections; #41 in education; with a 16.2% poverty rate.
Yet banning the word LatinX, restricting the use of bathrooms by transgender students, and building an anti-abortion monument is what Huckleberry Sanders is focusing on.
Don't be fooled by the folksey mommy from Arkansas. She's one of the most opportunistic parasites in the GOP, and has just rolled back child labor laws in her state.
Arkansas isn't the only state moving in this direction. All across the nation, GOP-run states are poised to roll back these protections for the most vulnerable laborers.
This is what governing in the public interest looks like. These are the kinds of public servants we should be electing.

The reaction you're seeing from the GOP #HouseOfHorrors over the impending Trump indictment in New York is classic fascism. This is how fascist nations operate. Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg has become the target of slurs, threats and investigations as a result.
As for Trump himself, he has rallied his street thug minions and even managed to grift off the impending indictment, begging for dollars for his 2024 campaign.
Nothing short of revolting.
@GeezerWench Deleting means nothing. The intent was obvious and it was seen by his minions before he took it down. The Internet is forever.
THIS IS A POST BY DONALD TRUMP ON TRUTH SOCIAL, CLEARLY DESIGNED TO INTIMIDATE AND THREATEN MANHATTAN DA ALVIN BRAGG.
YET, THIS IS THE FRONTRUNNER FOR THE GOP PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION? HOW LOW DO WE WANT TO GO HERE IN AMERICA.
THE REST OF THE INSURRECITONISTS ARE CIRCLING THE WAGONS TO PROTECT HIM, INCLUDING KEVIN MCCARTHY, JIM JORDAN, AND THE USUAL SUSPECTS FROM J6. THEY MUST BE VOTED OUT IN 2024.
This is a complete backgrounder on the Fulton County, Georgia, investigation into Trump and is compatriots.

It appears that some uninformed Democratic voters are under the impression that the Democrats do not have had a bill addressing legal protections for LGBT and trans Americans. They are wrong. It's called The Equality Act. It has been passed twice by the House, but never by the Senate (we need a 60-seat majority to override any inevitable GOP filibuster.
This is the Republican Party base. Because this is what the Republican Party has itself become, a lawless pack of domestic terrorists masquerading as legislators.
Democratic voters not voting in 2024 is NOT an option. We must remove as many members of the GOP as possible from BOTH chambers.
Every damned time I hear or read about West Virginia, "Dueling Banjos" begins to play in my head. Although that's the case for most of the south for me.
Once again, ignorance and bigotry are the hallmarks of GOP-run states.

No place for this crap in our judicial system or government. Janet Protasiewicz will protect people's rights, not support those who call for violence against doctors doing their jobs. She is the clear choice for Wisconsin on April 4.

All the great counterculturalists are out there on Facebook, where cogent thought goes to die, suggesting we just STOP participating in the system. We've been there too. How did that all work out?
We're on the brink of fascism here. Think we're safe? Think it will all go away if we just STOP participating? Think again. That's pre-2016 thinking. And we're so far from that now it's no longer valid.
Ever see those reality TV shows where people have this parasite in their colon that they just can't get rid of, and it bleeds them until they're dead? That's what's going on here in Arizona.
Perhaps the only parasite who equals Trump on the Grifter Scale is still at it 100 days out, but hey little MAGAts! She needs your money so she can appeal this one too!
This has not gotten much press attention, folks, but this is what a real public servant looks like. This woman is into her third week filibustering an anti-trans bill in Nebraska.
Anti-Fascist. Pro-Democracy. Anti-MAGA fighting the GOP. Support LGBTQ+; BLM; antifa; women's, indigenous, immigrant rights. #NewBillofRights
