If you don’t pay taxes, you face consequences. That’s how our system works. But not for Trump. Trump forced his nominee for Attorney General to promise to make him immune from any tax crimes Trump may have committed.
South Carolina has no state minimum wage. The floor is still $7.25 an hour. Two parents working full time at that wage bring home $30,160 a year combined, before taxes. That is not enough to cover rent, groceries, and childcare. You are not the problem. The wage is. #NewSC #JohnsonSkardon

He was shackled for approximately 72 hours ⤵️

Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
My name is Mary Peltola, and I'm running for U.S. Senate to fight for fish, family, and freedom – and that begins with fixing the rigged system in DC that’s shutting down Alaska. We need systemic change if we're going to lower costs, save our fisheries, and fill our homes with abundance again.

One year from now, I don’t want to hear members of Congress acting shocked about the damage Todd Blanche does as the United States Attorney General. They know exactly what they’re voting for, and they had a chance to stop it. Consider them complicit because that’s what they are
#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #ONEV1 #DV1 MO voters rejected a ballot measure that would have limited the Missourians' power to amend the state constitution. It may not make a headline on primary-analysis day. Yet low-key wins here & there add up. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
