The IDs needed to do these things would not be accepted forms of ID under the SAVE America Act.
They’re lying to you so you won’t realize that it’s a voter suppression bill, not a voter ID bill.
NCGOP@NCGOP
We show ID to buy beer, board a plane, or buy a gun. Why NOT for voting? Tell Congress to pass the SAVE AMERICA Act! 🇺🇸

Polling is a great way to manipulate people.
Three versions of a question:
1. Want free health care for everyone? Heck yeah!
2. Want healthcare that's free at the point of sale, but really means that people on Medicaid won't pay, but if you're a middle income family, you're paying 10x as much for your own insurance to cover their costs? (Alternatively, it's free at POS, but your taxes and wait times are significantly increased) [Answer depends on whether they live off the state or not]
3. Want to allow all illegals to also access the free healthcare, resulting in higher costs, longer wait times? "What? No!"
Guess which question gets asked in surveys.
English
Polling is good because it informs us of where the public stands on the issues. One of the things that stands out here is that a large majority believes parents have the absolute right to know everything happening in schools... but they don't think families should be able to make healthcare decisions for their kids? We can't back down because of a poll that says something we don't like, we've got to get to work convincing. And that's where Democrats have failed for so long.
Adam Carlson@admcrlsn
Searchlight did an extraordinary job with this polling. This is not an easy issue to test, and this is an excellent resource for candidates and the public. I was deeply saddened by a lot of the results. But harsh truths are still truths. It’s critical to know where the American public is at on these things so we can figure out the best path forward on codifying protections on anti-discrimination/safety, persuading the public, and determining the most effective strategic path forward in advancing the cause of trans rights.

@philthatremains @notsoErudite Whoa, Pritzker is on the ozempic! Now he's going to look like a shriveled ballsack instead of a fart run of lard.

AF Post@AFpost
Democratic Illinois Governor JB Pritzker speaks about a Democratic "Project 2029" in which members of the current Trump administration, along with federal agents, will be criminally and civilly prosecuted. "Whatever it is that we can do. It may be that you cannot criminally prosecute somebody, but you can go after them civilly." Follow: @AFpost

@TheJusticeDept @PressSec @AGPamBondi You guys know that if you don't make it impossible for the left to take control again, you're all going to prison, right?
You have to arrest and charge their NGO networks for their crimes.

Justice Department Sues Harvard University for Antisemitism
“Since October 7th, 2023, too many of our educational institutions have allowed anti-Semitism to flourish on campus – Harvard included,” said @AGPamBondi. “Today’s litigation underscores the Trump Administration’s commitment to demanding better from our nation’s schools and putting an end to discriminatory behavior that harms students.”

@SenJohnCurtis And what specifically did you do about it? Did you insist the DOGE cuts would be locked in? Or did you vote for the giant omnibus spending bills?
English
The national debt has crossed $39 trillion and continues to rise by the second. Washington’s spending problem is putting our economic stability in jeopardy, affecting our children and grandchildren the most. The Fiscal Commission Act will bring Republicans and Democrats together to confront our debt before it’s too late.

@KatieMiller @MariaBartiromo @MorningsMaria They're probably all cheating. Everyone hates Congress, and they keep getting elected.
English
The reality is there's mass amounts of cheating in our elections.
Just because there's an engineered lack of data, does not mean there isn't data to the contrary.
The new CBS/YouGov poll shows that 80% of Americans support Voter ID including 80% of black Americans & 77% of Hispanic Americans.
Yet why is it that Congress seems so intractable to wanting to pass a such a popular policy?
English
You know, for someone who has built enough rifles (many from PSA) to arm his great great grandchildren, and has spent a majority of his adult life supporting 2A causes, covid proved all the guns and “don’t tread on my cold dead hands blood tyrant liberty trees” is worthless.
We bluffed, they called.
We were designed to be a well armed and trained homogenous citizenry who could be called forth by our own representatives to defend ourselves, but we left a power vacuum to be filled by tyrants, subversives, foreigners, and traitors.
Seek and wield power. No amount of isolated individuals owning guns will help you without power, organization, and direction.

We stand with our neighbors, elected officials, and community advocates in making one thing loud and clear: ICE out of SLC NOW.
We should all be focused on supporting families, not building infrastructure for mass detention without any community input.

@rystbelt Men can't get pregnant. A pregnant woman dressed as a man is still a woman. Hope that helps you sort out the thing you thought we were confused about.

it dawned on me awhile ago conservatives deadass believe "pregnant men" is referring to trans women. they really think everyone else is as bigoted and stupid as they are

@SandyofCthulhu I live in UT. Our missionaries are coming from AZ.
English
Here I will point out that my church (of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) DOES send missionaries to American towns. My mission was in the Los Angeles area and I served in Compton, Huntington Park, and the San Fernando Valley, among others. I admit it was back in 1975 so probably not as dangerous as now.
My dad went on three medical missions (he was a doctor) and served in Tonga, the Caribbean, and New Zealand. Lucky guy.

I prosecuted the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers, and then Donald Trump himself.
One week after he took office again, he fired me.
Now I’m running for Congress to defend our democracy and restore the rule of law.

Watching Utah fall more and more to groypers is so sad. Especially since I used to tell people, “sure it’s a red state and that sucks-but at least we aren’t Florida”. Like do we have to just be “evil Colorado with better mountains”

No. The world runs on fossil fuels. Europe has the walkable cities you're clamoring for, but their grass prices are way higher.
Every city is full of people. People eat food and buy products. They all need to be delivered.
The US has wisely encouraged endless energy production, which is why we're paying way less than most countries.
Paris, France is probably pushing ~$9/gallon, and it ain't because they have suburbs.
English
Because a decent chunk of Real Estate in this country relies on cheap gas.
Its only accessible via car, and because of its low density its built far away from real job centers. This means that the value of these properties would tank if the price of gas/energy rises to the point where commuting from these places costs more than the saved value of moving out here to own these homes
ja3k@ja3k_
Idk why gas prices are so culturally salient in america. You could drive an hour a day and it probably comes to less than $3k/year. Is it because they put the price on billboards along the road?
English
@NateForUtah I don't want detention centers because that implies the illegals are going to be here longer than it takes to arrest them and put them on a plane to go back home.
English
ICE OUT of SLC now! I’m proud of our community for showing up and speaking out against the DHS facility that came out of nowhere without any input from our community. There is no place in SLC or anywhere for these detention centers. From caucusing yesterday to protesting in the streets tonight - thank you for showing up. No more reining in rhetoric - abolish ICE, prosecute now. Our government is killing people - strongly worded letters aren’t cutting it. People better get used to this level of disruption, because we’re going to keep showing up. We’re not backing down when you come after our community.

This account is literally Iranian regime-owned and operated propaganda.
It's been tweeting out clips of Joe Kent on Tucker Carlson all evening.
Do you see what is happening yet?
Press TV 🔻@PressTV
"Who’s in charge of our policy in the Middle East?" Joe Kent basically suggests that Israel drives US policies in West Asia. So, essentially, American soldiers are dying for Israel!

@mcuban @reddit_lies I used to work for a huge pharmaceutical distributor. It's an extremely thin margin business. Mad respect for going around the insurance companies. They're the bane of the healthcare system.

Everyone wants me to rip on TrumpRx. Reality is, it’s saving patients money on IVF and a few other drugs. A lot of money.
IMO, anything that saves patients money is a win.
And they truly do have some great people that are making smart moves. You just don’t know their names. Chris Klomp. Mark Atalla, Abe Sutton and so many more.
When you talk to them, and see the work they put in, it’s obvious they are focused on trying to do the right thing for patients.
Don’t forget they didn’t give the insurance industry a price increase they wanted, and those stock prices got crushed.
TrumpRx is just getting started. @costplusdrugs is just getting started.

Americans are furious about drug prices. The Trump administration’s answer? A new website. But more than a month after its launch, the site, TrumpRx.gov, remains small — offering discounts on just 54 prescription drugs. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
