The Department of Education cowardly notified the states on June 30th that a large chunk of their funding, that you passed, was not distributed on July 1st.

I’m writing you today not because I believe you’ll change — quite the opposite. I’m writing because I want you to know I see you. I see what you’ve done. I see how you spin lies as “victories.” I see how you gaslight constituents with carefully crafted propaganda while voting to harm the very people

This message is to Congressional staff and interns. Did you get into politics to expand executive power at the expense of the citizenry? I don’t think you did. But the 2025 budget is a dangerous political blueprint that consolidates oligarchic power and concentrates power in the executive branch.

Cancel Culture at the FBI Threatens Our Safety

Shame on you

Shame on you for passing this awful bill. Ok if I come to you for help if Social Security and/or Medicare are compromised? Better you should bear that burden than my kids. I worked hard to be able to promise them that they wouldn’t have to bear that financial expense.
