Republicans think that they won last night.
They did NOT win!
Here's a video of a 'Covenant Mom' embracing expelled Tennessee Rep. Justin Pearson.
- Make sure this video goes viral.
- Make sure everyone knows what this man stood for and what Republicans stood against.
- Make sure you never forget what happened last night in Tennessee and 9 days ago in Nashville!
THANK YOU Tennessee Three!

🎉 🎉 FANTASTIC NEWS! Democratic-backed Judge Janet Protasiewicz has WON the race for a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat — widely viewed as the single most important election in America this year.
Her victory gives liberals a 4-to-3 majority on the court. This will not only guarantee the protection of abortion rights in Wisconsin but will also ensure that the state has a functional representative democracy. Just as important, it will have a HUGE impact on the 2024 presidential election — in a state where fewer than 23,000 votes decided four of the last six such races.
Retweet to congratulate @janetforjustice on her AMAZING VICTORY! 💙

Want to know how far the Republican Party has drifted on its interpretation the 2nd Amendment? Here's what Republican Supreme Court Justice Warren Burger-appointed by President Nixon-had to say about the NRA:
"The Gun Lobby’s interpretation of the Second Amendment is one of the greatest pieces of fraud, I repeat the word fraud, on the American People by special interest groups that I have ever seen in my lifetime. The real purpose of the Second Amendment was to ensure that state armies – the militia – would be maintained for the defense of the state. The very language of the Second Amendment refutes any argument that it was intended to guarantee every citizen an unfettered right to any kind of weapon he or she desires."
Make sure everyone sees this.

The same dark money group that had its fingerprints all over the effort to pack the Supreme Court is now responsible for $600,000 in donations to a right-wing activist group led by the wife of a sitting Supreme Court Justice.
And you want me to believe these aren't connected?

Horrifying: @fordnation's Ministry of Health is ending renumeration for physicians who treat extremely vulnerable people who are uninsured, which includes undocumented and many unhoused people. This is telling physicians to treat people for free, or else don't treat them at all.

Not just doctors… hospitals - MD billing is only a small proportion. This is going to result in cuts to the kind of care we need to care for all patients. It is devastating.

Gordon Pinsent was a national treasure. His storytelling without equal, his mischievousness legendary, his talents immense. He was a lovely person, too. He used to call me "Marit from Logy Bay" and I adored him. It was impossible not to.
RIP Gordon. We will miss you 🧡

If the PM said electing Ford as premier would be “a disaster,” PCs would rightly go berserk. Obviously Ontarians will make their decision and the PM’s job is to work with who they elect.
But Ford is so partisan and obsessed with Toronto his inappropriate comments appear normal.

We’ve had 12 years of PC party mayors in Toronto and we are going backward in transparency, ethics, city services, crime and social cohesion

Gun nut Lauren Boebert doesn’t give one f**k about my generation. She is SILENT on the attack on Michigan State, and will continue to stop common sense gun laws that can save our lives.
Gen Z will make it our personal mission to get her gone. It's life or death.
