Wait! CapitalOne closed Trump's account for money laundering?!? But I thought CapitalOne would take on anyone as a customer. ANYONE! I guess being an adjudicated rapist AND a money launderer was just too much for their corporate ethics to handle. Too bad it didn't extend to their voting ethics.

Four more charted rows to go on my Wisterious shawl and then extending it to use up more gradient. Even with all of the nupps I added, it's still slow to get to the solid turquoise. This is going to be a very long shawl.

Republicans told you Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" was about “waste, fraud, and program integrity.” What it actually delivered: the largest Medicaid cuts in history, millions projected to lose coverage, higher ACA premiums, and now higher Medicare costs right before seniors open their 2027 plan

CONSTANT Marie Gluesencamp Perez ads on the TV.....I'm starting to realize how fortunate I've been not to own a TV for most of my life. Now, I'm caring for my mother I'm seeing what people actually see on TV/News/ADs. Replace Marie with @bhennrich.bsky.social ..And WA will have representation

Head's up people of #WA03. We have a choice this election. Do we want a Rep who listens to our issues, or someone who votes against our wishes to serve herself. Check out Gluesenkamp-Perez voting record. Her votes are not in our interest. Vote @bhennrich.bsky.social! Send in that primary ballot now!

Brent Hennrich 🇺🇸 For Congress (D) 💯PRO CHOICE!@bhennrich.bsky.social · last yr.

When we elect a Representative, we are handing our collective voice to one we believe will lead us forward. While #MGPisGOP neglects speaking out against fascism taking over our democracy to dismantle our Gov, constituents in #WA03 are being hurt. We must replace @gluesenkampperez.house.gov in '26.
