Every Republican candidates for office, up and down the November ballot - federal, state, local is running to be a Trump accomplice, to give him their vote not to govern
Oh just super! Now North Korea is helping Russia against Ukraine. Why not? Now will the stable genius shoot off fire-and-fury threats or engage in more love-letter diplomacy? Or maybe he will just be too busy golfing, slapping his face on everything in DC, and scheming to meddle in the midterms… 🫤

@jamestalarico.bsky.social for Texas US Senate gets it - under his opponent Ken Paxton and Gov. Abbott, data centers are running amok in TX. Talarico has a sensible plan to regulate data centers. Texas, he is the right choice for your next senator, not the corrupt, 15 home owning Paxton.
The mask is off. The war against women has been openly declared. Todd Blanche told anti-abortion activists he plans to restrict reproductive rights nationwide. This was never about states’ rights! It was always about controlling reproductive freedom across the entire country.

When generals start emailing the ranks…begging for “creative and unconventional” ideas, you’ve moved past confidence …and into desperation. That’s not the sound of a winning strategy. It’s the sound of leaders…searching for an exit.
Great news! We only torched 80% of our missile interceptors. That leaves a full 20% for the next war. Which starts Tuesday. Relax. Raytheon’s on it. Delivery date: 2031. P.S. Duck.
Leaders on our side need to be much more vocal about why all of the food related illnesses are happening. The Trump regime and republicans made MASSIVE cuts to the FDA and it’s food safety inspectors. ⬇️ Chipotle removes jalapeños amid US salmonella outbreak investigation | US news | The Guardian

Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
RFK Jr's CDC reportedly scaled back foodborne disease tracking last year, removing cyclospora from mandatory reporting. The CDC also lost roughly 3,000 employees since 2025. Now a cyclosporiasis outbreak has killed 2 and sickened thousands across 45 states. "Make America Healthy Again."
The fuss so many Republicans in D.C. make about the LGBTQ community is resentment. They resent people brave enough to live openly…while they keep their own desires hidden, terrified of what colleagues and constituents would do if they knew. Republicans…you KNOW who you are. We do, too.

Indiana farmers on data centers: Our livelihood is at stake. It's going to devalue all the property around. They're going to deplete the water. They're going to deplete our ability to grow food for everybody. It’s way bigger than everybody thinks.
I’ll bet you a hot cup of coffee that Todd Blanche’s assurance that the slush fund is off the table will turn out to be utter bullshit. We will see it in some other form and convicted felons will be paid. Watch.
