BREAM: 76% of voters say the economy is fair or poor. When can Americans expect relief? HASSETT: The prices went up so much under Joe Biden that we understand why people are still frustrated

ICE agents threatened to beat up a Seattle small business owner, married to a citizen, with NO criminal record unless he signed a "voluntary" departure. I'm told there were cameras in the room. I'm demanding any video and that Eduardo be brought home immediately.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.gov

On Thursday, ICE needlessly detained Eduardo Aguirre Esparza, a local Seattle small business owner with no criminal history. This is a man who is married to an American citizen and with deep ties to our local community who was working hard to pursue a legal pathway to lawful permanent residence.

In 99 days, we will defeat Susan Collins, and we'll reclaim our Senate seat from the billionaires and corporate PACs who have her in their pockets. Let's get to work.

WHOA!! Rep. Zach Nunn (R-IA) just STRUCK a person asking him a simple question about rural hospital closures. Reporter: Do you still think rural hospital closures are a myth? Nunn: I said I'm with a constituent. You should protect their privacy! *SMACK*

BREAKING: In a major blow to Trump, the House just passed an Iran War Powers resolution aimed at blocking military action against Iran. The vote was 214-208. Four Republicans joined Democrats: Fitzpatrick, Davidson, Massie, and Barrett. Trump’s stupid and reckless war must end.

Mitch McConnell's team reached out to me earlier today — through an intermediary, of course — asking me to take this down. I won't. I don't bend the knee. And if they don't like having their name and face attached to it, maybe they should ask themselves why that is.

Meet the senior staff running Mitch McConnell's DC office. You pay their salaries. You're entitled to know what they're keeping from us. Let them know how you feel.

Please consider reposting this - this is the group of parasites that are still getting paid though McConnell hasn't been in the Senate in over a month. Very likely they are committing fraud by hiding his likely death from taxpayers.

Trump: "The Democrats are gonna terminate the filibuster as soon as they have a chance and then they're gonna approve DC and Puerto Rico as states. They get 4 more senators, 12 more congressmen, like 40 electoral votes ... you don't want to see me cry."

Absolutely devastating news about the passing of Sam Neill, he was definitely one of the good guys. He’s going to be sadly missed by so many people. Thoughts go out to his family and those close to him. Rest in Peace.

"Trump's critics claim he’s blowing the midterms. But that’s a fundamental misunderstanding of his psychology. He is laser focused on the midterms— because the Save America Act would help him rig them. He doesn’t want to earn votes... he wants to rig the rules before a single vote is even cast."

Lindsey Graham was a simple, tragic man to understand. He lacked a moral core. The great empty spaces of his life were filled with an insatiable need for “relevance.” He found it as a cast member in the most malignant reality show ever made. steveschmidt.substack.com/p/lindsey-kn...
