Texas just suspended 1.2 million voter registrations because Talarico is beating Paxton in the polls. And OF COURSE they won’t tell us how many of those voters come from Democratic districts. Texas isn’t a democracy. It’s a racist fascist state.

We are a broken nation. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were living and working legally, paying taxes, and contributing. Haiti remains wholly unsafe. But Trump hates Haitians, and the White House wanted videos of Black people in chains, so they stripped them of status and turned on the cameras.

I have, day in and day out since Jan 2025, posted hundreds of examples of Trump’s blatant corruption this term hoping that enough people notice and care. Here is the latest.

A Florida grand jury found the DeSantis administration “misappropriated” $10 million meant to provide health insurance for poor children.

Data centers in the 7 states with the highest concentration of them use more water than L.A., Phoenix, and D.C. combined. Now Trump's EPA is making it even harder for communities to push back against them. He's forcing the Big Tech takeover on America, democracy be damned.

Trump doesn’t want to say where his mystery meat is coming from. Oh also in a separate story I’m sure is in no way connected, he’s been slaughtering your wild horses.

Fuck Trump. Fuck ICE.
