@RepJackKimble I honestly can’t tell if this is a joke. If he’s being sarcastic, this is pretty funny.

Just a friendly warning. We don’t even make $200k per year in Congress despite working nearly 140 days. If we aren’t properly compensated, a lot of us will go to the private sector and you will be left with some real idiots in Congress.

This was how the Democrats drew Georgia's then 13 congressional districts when they controlled the Governor's office and General Assembly. I do not want to hear the word "gerrymandering" from anyone who wants to put them back in power.

If you don’t understand why the Electoral College exists, you are the reason the Electoral College exists.

Would 38% of Americans recognize Ketanji Brown Jackson if provided a photo? I highly doubt it. Poll is just trying to manufacture a narrative.

The single largest form of theft in America is wage theft. $50 billion a year are stolen from American workers.
If a billionaire amasses their wealth by underpaying their full-time workers so severely that they must rely on food assistance and government programs to survive, then no, that wealth was not earned by one individual - it was a wealth transfer subsidized by underpaid American workers and the public who get stuck with the bill for large corporations free-riding off our systems.
The point is less about individual morality. It’s more about how our current economic reality of shattering inequality rewards screwing over workers and exploiting essential systems at scale.
We’re talking monopoly power. Rent-seeking. Wage theft. Profiteering. Stock buybacks. Destabilizing housing markets. Companies using SNAP/EBT to underwrite their wages. Massive government subsidies or contracts to corporations following lobbying and dark money in politics with little to no oversight or accountability.
Some people get enraged that I draw attention to this. That’s on them. Let them call me shrill, dumb, inexperienced, girly, uneducated - these folks will say anything to distract from or undercut the truth that working people are getting screwed, and giving people a fair shake means we must have a grown conversation about reigning in abuse of power.

AOC: “There’s a certain level of wealth and accumulation that is unearned. You can’t earn a billion dollars. You just can’t earn that. You can get market power, you can break rules, you can abuse labor laws, you can pay people less than what they’re worth, but you can’t earn that”

Confederate states are rushing through rigged maps to erase Black districts off the map.

Trump’s done some good things, but if his DOJ doesn’t indict Fauci, it will tear his legacy.
Rand Paul@RandPaul
The DOJ has ONE WEEK left to charge Anthony Fauci for the worst cover-up in modern medical history. He lied to Congress about funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan. Millions died. Trillions were spent. And Fauci walked away with book deals and fawning media coverage instead of handcuffs. I re-upped my criminal referral to the DOJ because the evidence is overwhelming, and justice has been delayed long enough. RT if you’re ready to see Fauci behind bars.

@jbharrison001 @wil_da_beast630 3100 is a pretty solid n. Learn some stat before making ignorant statements.
English
@wil_da_beast630 You have a sample size of 3,100 people and yet you make the sweeping statement: "That much of our elite hates the country..." That pretty much undermines everything that follows.
English
That much of our elite hates the country, for farcially false reasons taught to them by ~traitors ("The Comanche riders were PEACEFUL, before we told them of war!!!") Is a very serious problem.
No punch line. This has to be changed entirely.

Americans with the highest trust in educators are twice as likely to (falsely) believe that Europeans introduced the concept of war and conflict to Native Americans. (see graph below)

@beinlibertarian They can’t let you opt out because it’s a Ponzi scheme: they’re paying current recipients with your money, neve because those people’s money was spent decades ago.

Everyone is talking about the National Debt
But nobody is offering solutions.
So here goes…
If Social Security were optional, would you opt out?

@CheyneSeleski @DeAngelisCorey Democrats support sending money to education. Sounds subtle, but that’s a massive difference in actually supporting education, as we’ve recently seen in places like MS and AL.
English
@DeAngelisCorey Its because democrats typically are the ones who best support education.
If republicans supported education they would donate to them as well

@jamesetta_w @micah_erfan Only problem is most blue states are already highly gerrymandered. There’s not much more they can squeeze out of California, Washington, Oregon, and all of New England. Republicans have lots of areas to make gains.
English
The gerrymandering saga only ends when Democrats retaliate so much that Republicans have an incentive to support a federal ban.
Ryan Brune@BruneElections
How does the gerrymandering saga end? Serious question.

Reminder that any political party trying to make it easier to vote illegally is sending a clear message: they can’t win on their ideas alone.

Democrats be big mad that Republicans can game the system too now. They hate not having the monopoly on gerrymandering anymore.
Barack Obama@BarackObama
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach. The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

@dvassallo @RepThomasMassie Can you turn it off? That 100% determines the answer to your question.

@RepThomasMassie My KIA minivan uses AI to automatically slam the breaks if it thinks I'm about to drive over a child. Is that Orewellian?
I'd rather have the car doing local safety controls than cctv cameras recoding everything on the roads. That's way more Orewellian.

Would you believe 57 Republicans and 211 Democrats recently voted in favor of this Orwellian automobile kill-switch? Here’s the roll call for the vote I forced to defund the mandate: clerk.house.gov/evs/2026/roll0…
Pubity@pubity
Every new car in the U.S. will be required by law to have tech that puts constant surveillance on the driver by 2027. AI in your car will determine if you're sober and fit to drive, automatically turning off the vehicle if it determines you're a danger on the road.
