If a politician takes money from weapons manufacturers, don't be surprised when they back weapons contracts. If a politician takes money from Big Pharma, don't be surprised when they try to stop guaranteed healthcare. That's why I don't take ANY corporate money. None.

I know I've posted this many times - needs to flood the media until election day.
Ken Paxton keeps dodging debates. So I’m challenging him to a debate on Fox News — his safe space. I’ll go into the lion’s den. I know what I believe and I’m not afraid of hard questions. Ken has been running from accountability his whole life. It’s time to stop running.
Border Patrol goons came to a family home without a warrant and took 3 people after cutting off the electricity and breaking a front window. The woman recording the incident was home with her 1 year old and 5 month old baby boy when her partner was also taken by the goons
Talarico wants data centers to pay for their own grid upgrades, recycle their water, create real jobs, & get a community's consent before moving in. Paxton took nearly $500,000 from the industry. Texans want a senator who fights for them. That's why we will have a #BlueWaveIn40Days

Zelenskyy: "For first time in Russia’s history, we now hear that its oil industry is running on fumes. Our target is Russia’s ability to finance this war, to drag it out, to make it more brutal & destructive. Russia’s finances & Russia’s production are what must be stopped if Putin is to be stopped”

Republicans have been telling the media that they know they're going to get slaughtered in the midterms. This is likely a ploy to keep some Democrats from bothering to vote, thinking their vote isn't needed. Don't fall for it, like many did in '24. That's how Trump won. EVER SINGLE VOTE IS NEEDED
Taking brisket away from Texans might be what turns Texas blue
The owner of a top BBQ joint in Texas decided to cut brisket, the top-selling item, from the menu rather than institute a $10 markup for customers. The decision was fueled not just by the skyrocketing price of brisket but by inflation.
In the richest, most powerful country in the world, it just shouldn't be this hard to afford groceries, pay your mortgage, or see a doctor.
