The funniest thing we learned after today’s historic Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe is that Congress is now on vacation for two weeks: Members of Congress will be in their home districts for recess from today through July 11, celebrating our nation’s promise of freedom even as essential components of that freedom are dismantled.

— Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) June 24, 2022 But he might not like what he hears from his supporters as there’s a significant backlash right now against the Democrat party: So disappointed in the Democratic party..
— Walter Salcido (@Salcido314) June 24, 2022 Ted, they’re not buying it: The Democratic Party did not do this. Republicans did.
— Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) June 24, 2022 But Ted, option were there to prevent this.
— Walter Salcido (@Salcido314) June 24, 2022 We regret to inform libs that Walter is correct. Here’s a reminder from The Intercept’s Ken Klippenstein that former President Obama did not make codifying Roe a priority back when he had the chance: Andrew Yang speaks the truth: It feels like Democrats owe their people an apology for being bad at their jobs – they had a long time to codify Roe v. Wade, defend a balanced court, get RBG to step down, etc. Instead they got played and trounced. “Help undo our failures!” is not a compelling rallying cry.— Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 (@AndrewYang) June […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
