My mom would have had to update her voter registration and prove her citizenship 8 times under the SAVE Act, counting all her moves and name changes. That's just one tiny part of Trump's project to make govt exhausting, punitive and (for him) profitable. My latest www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-is-m...
Trump Is Making Government Worse on Purpose
Instead of seeking to simplify and improve citizens’ lives, this administration keeps creating new obstacles and burdens.

Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
When Trump said he would leave abortion to the states in the debate, he was lying.
A new Senate investigation says JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America processed massive sums tied to Jeffrey Epstein despite glaring red flags. Powerful institutions helped keep his operation running and every one of them must be held accountable. Follow the money, release everything.

RFK and all Trump appointees are so unqualified.
Karly Kingsley@karlykingsley.bsky.social · 23h agoRFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline

Blanche's unilateral rescission of the "anti-weaponization" fund has no legal effect and doesn't prevent the fund from being revived in the future. We cannot trust anything our federal government says. It is led by a compulsive liar.
To the very limited extent that the GOP cares about violence against women and minors - especially sexually-related - they think women and minors are responsible for bringing the violence on themselves. Look no further than Dershowitz, who characterized Epstein’s minor victims, as “prostitutes”.
No comparison. A great statesman vs. a two-bit, no-class criminal hackster.
