Tarrant County cut 92 polling places in a county that is 60 percent nonwhite, and the coverage will be a human interest piece about a patient voter in a folding chair. Long lines are not a turnout story. They are a budget decision someone made on purpose.

How do you defeat a president who’s trying to sabotage the midterms? 1. Use drop boxes. 2. Vote EARLY in person. 3. If mailing in your ballot, put it in the mail AT LEAST two weeks before Election Day. 4. Vote in person on Election Day. 5. Share these instructions with everyone you know.

Thomas Massie today: "Tuesday I tweeted Mike Johnson would recess Congress until after the election in an attempt to stymie our latest Epstein bill. Johnson went on TV adamantly saying that was STUPID and we’d work every day. Today he announced we’ll recess on Sept 17… until after the election!"

In America, most of us believe voters should pick our leaders, but this regime wants to keep people from voting so they can control our elections and seize more power. We need to vote in numbers so big that no one can rig the election.

A fuel supplier says $4M in gas vanished from its reserves, unpaid. Some allegedly ended up at "Freedom Fuel" stations Trump pitched as cheap gas amid his Iran conflict spiking oil prices. Sound familiar? I fought against Trump's lies when he turned them against our democracy. (Link in reply)

It's official today: for the first time ever, Americans paid $4 a gallon on average every single day in August. The average price for a gallon of gas in the U.S. today is $4.08, AAA reported. Average price for a gallon of gas in the U.S. two days before Trump and Netanyahu attacked Iran was $2.98.

Gas prices likely to set record high for August and the war in Iran is to blame

Gas prices in the U.S. have been above $4 per gallon for the entire month and aren't expected to go down anytime soon.
