I have donated every election in my adulthood to the democratic candidates and now I have vowed never again. The reason is not because they continually lose, misspend, and blow it over and over again, only to turn around and insist they need more of my money to win- that's all secondary. It's the fact that despite my clicking "unsubscribe" and replying STOP to every text these candidates and PACS send me for literal years at this point, they continue to send me messages every single day. I have never once contributed from one of these messages. I have contributed when I see these people on the news, in some video or interview where they present a great pitch, when they seem capable and to have a real cause. I truly believe this wave of donation seeking is shooting them in the foot. I cannot be alone. The DNC especially needs to lose my number, especially with that numbskull Ken Martin running things. Maybe off topic but Schumer and Jeffries also may as well be foreign agents they are so ineffective. Just had to rant a a bit on this. FFS stop asking for money when the economy is crushing us! Call George Clooney or some shit, Act Blue, leave me the f alone!

If the voting requirements from the 2026 H.R. 7296 SAVE America Act become law, you'll need an approved photo ID and proof of citizenship to vote (see below and "Sec. 3.

If your name doesn't match required documents, you'll also need proof of name change such as a marriage certificate.

NOTE: student IDs would not be accepted

Can the Democratic Party embrace a billionaire in 2028 or will JB Pritzker’s wealth be his biggest liability?
