Thomas Massie pushed for the release of the Epstein files, and the response has been tens of millions in outside spending, smear campaigns, and coordinated attacks.

Why the fuck do we allow any foreign country to buy up land of any kind in America. China and probably Russia are buying up farm land. Soon we’ll have no food. WTF are people doing?!

Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

No, we shouldn't! #war

Hell is empty. The demons are all hiding behind redactions in the Epstein files.

If you’re going to pollute, then you should be prepared to pay for it. Those costs should come out of your profits, not out of California families’ pocket books.

Dear Congress Yes, Iran is a threat, so is Russia, China, North Korea, India, and Pakistan. But please be real. America bombed them while they were peacefully adhering to the Obama Agreement! The Strait was free and open until we bombed them. Now they retaliate!

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) has allowed Alabama to select a different map for this year’s congressional elections in a stunning, last-minute move to interfere with another state primary election that has already begun. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Residents in Fayette County, Georgia noticed their water pressure was unusually low. Turns out that a data center 20 miles away had been drawing 30 million gallons of water in secret through connections the county didn't know existed. Is it any wonder why so many are opposed to data centers?

SCOTUS, which ordered Alabama to create a second Black opportunity district just 3 years ago, has lifted that order a week before the primary. The Purcell principle says courts shouldn't permit chaos too close to an election—it's now an open question whether there will even be a primary on schedule.

The GOP is doing everything it can to silence voters and entrench minority rule. Overcoming that to win the midterms will require an unprecedented level of organizing across the country. Our movement was built for this moment.
