For the past several legislative sessions, @GovernorTomWolf and PA House and Senate Dems have proposed solutions to both phase out the gas tax and fix the allocations, while still funding both PennDOT road and bridge projects and the state police.

The @PAGOP majority has repeatedly rejected those proposals.

Want change in PA for the firs time in decades? #VoteBlueIn2022

To express your concerns about PA's roads and request that this year’s budget allocates some of our more than $8 billion in surplus funds for road and bridge repairs, write to Rep Tim Hennessey, Chair of the House Transportation Committee

In the early 1980s, I was fooling around with a novel that explored a future in which the US had become disunited. Part of it had turned into a theocratic dictatorship based on 17th-century New England

Puritan religious tenets and jurisprudence. I set this novel in and around Harvard University—an institution that in the 1980s was renowned for its liberalism, but that had begun three centuries earlier chiefly as a training college for Puritan clergy.
The Bible was cherry-picked, with the cherries being interpreted literally. Based on the reproductive arrangements in Genesis the wives of high-ranking patriarchs could have female slaves, or “handmaids,” and those wives could tell their husbands to have children by the handmaids

#SteveSchmidt did not have knowledge of the Weaver email or of any specific allegs against Weaver until February 2021 when a reporter asked him specifically about the email. As it turns out, though, @maggieNYT knew about Weaver sending inappropriate messages to young men long

before Schmidt or anyone else involved in LP had any such knowledge. #MaggieHaberman told Schmidt in a text that she knew at least as far back as THREE YEARS before NYT first reported about the Weaver allegations in Jan 2021, before LP even was formed—

“One addendum – since you’re rewriting history and so it’s in writing. I told you that someone I knew * three years ago * had weaver slide into his DMs in a flirty way, with nothing overt or graphic or even particularly attention-calling. The person was of age and also did not

Senator McCain denied his long relationship with the lobbyist dozens of times to my face. After the NYT story was attacked and successfully discredited by the campaign under my direction, John McCain told me the truth backstage at an event in OH

The rates of uninsured women and maternal deaths are among the highest in the country in trigger states; no state with a trigger law or ban has legislation in place to guarantee paid leave, which helps women recover from giving birth without losing income.

In states where abortion rights are likely to be rescinded, women earn lower salaries than women in other states.

Women in ID and MS earn the lowest median salary, about $24K. Next are WV Utah, New Mexico, Montana and Alabama, where women make about $25,000 on average.
Most states with trigger laws contain a high percentage of women who do not have private or public health insurance.

Families are generally more able to afford child care in trigger states, but in WY its expensive and not readily available. Quality child care is also lacking

Amber Heard everyday with full face of makeup, vs today without.

Please. ImageImage
She has dry eyes while acting crying.

Acording to Amber, Johnny slapped and punched her in the face often, yet no one ever saw bruising or swelling? Not trained police, not friends who know her well? Not her staff? COME ON!

After Trump lost the presidential election, falsely claiming election fraud, Meadows became senior partner at the Conservative Partnership Institute (CPI), which promotes “election integrity” efforts.

Does no one vet anymore?
The “citizen’s guide” urges activists to determine that the reg of their neighbors are legal by checking on “whether voters have moved, or if the registrations are PO Boxes, commercial addresses or vacant lots” then “obtaining evidence: photos of commercial buildings?
