Donald Trump wants Tom Kean Jr. in office because heโll be a rubber stamp for forever wars and higher costs.ย
Iโm running to change that.ย
Every dollar counts in the last 11 days.

Trump is rolling out yet another key plank of Project 2025: privatizing airport security.
History has shown us time and again this makes both workers and passengers less safe.
Everything is for sale under Trump.
The effective federal corporate income tax rate:
1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%
Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.
That is how we will pay for it.
Snagged this from FB. This may make some people uncomfortable but I think it highlights just how far we've come from what's natural, from our relationship to the Earth that sustains us and our beautiful relatives we share it with.
Mitch McConnellโs staff have declined to answer basic questions about what work he is doingโ37 days after he was loaded into the back of an ambulance and vanished from public view.
His staff refused to even say if the senator had spoken to any of them in recent days.
Donald J. Trumpโa "master negotiator" presiding over endless conflict, a "master builder" undone by peeling paint, and a champion of "fair elections" that are fair only when he wins.
He calls it winning; history may call it something else.
Population: one oversized ego. Address: The Twilight Zone.
Trump's "Board of Peace" that he's the lifetime head of, created a draft resolution to grant Trump and all its members broad legal immunity in the case of Palestinian deaths.
Because nothing bad is ever EVER Trump's fault, and he must never suffer any consequences.

Eric Trump and Donald Trump, Jr. are acquiring a drone company that is seeking to meet Pentagon demand after Trump banned the use of Chinese drones.
Weโre just weeks into Trumpโs war and already his family has found a way to cash in.
Everything is for sale.
Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.
Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.
They are good for society and the economy.
This amazing scientific advance may one day lead to either more effective treatments or dare I say perhaps a cure.
This is why it is vitally important to fund basic scientific research.

Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"
BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiarโfar higher than the Pentagonโs publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)
What if a coalition of the brave was formed, where members had the keys and THEY did the thing... they took over the buildings, they locked the doors shut down the surveillance tools. We took their money, we put them in jail, we no longer gave them the power. What if we stopped?
The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism.
Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.
Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: โWeโre a 3rd world country now. I know. Iโve been to โem. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golfโฆ thatโs what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. Thatโs whatโs happening here.โ ๐บ๐ธ
That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.
Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?
Imagine being one of the un-purged leaders in the US Military, knowing you must plan for the upcoming fake war against Venezuela, a future potential war with China-and an imminent war in Europe that our โleadershipโ is guaranteeing through their non-stop grift efforts.
This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

๐บ๐ฆ๐ป๐ฆ Ukraine has sent a letter to the Pope of Rome calling for help in the return of captive Ukrainians and kidnapped children, - Yermak
This appeal is due to the fact that there are no international legal mechanisms for the return of kidnapped children and captive Ukrainians.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett has released receipts that reveal that ProPublica has reported that Kristi Noem secretly diverted hundreds of millions of dollars in Department of Homeland Security funds to a consulting firm affiliated with her own campaign.
US Congress voted 285โ98 to condemn "socialism." 88 Democrats joined Republicans, including Hakeem Jeffries.
What they mean by socialism is your access to healthcare, housing, safety regulations, and anything that benefits you instead of the oligarchy. There has been no vote to condemn fascism. #3E
Iโve long pushed for stronger ethics rules at the Fed.
The American people should be able to trust that the Fed's decisions are not driven by the personal interests of individual officials or the political interests of Donald Trump.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
I just donโt see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here
A UFO-reporting app has detected thousands of Unidentified Submersible Objects (USOs) near US coastlines, prompting concern among Navy officials about national security threats posed by unexplainable objects entering US waters. #ufo #uap #aliens #ovni #ufosky
Thinking about mundane boycott opportunities: like the tshirt, jacket and shoe vendors for ICE, Kristi Noem's make-up and costume brands, of course all advertisers on Fox.. maybe a TikTok campaign to "don't be like Kristi" tied with a pro puppy vibe..
So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running donโt.
And Speaker Mike Johnson wonโt let the House come back to work. So basically theyโre on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks.
Did I get that right?
Republican Rep. Mariannette Miller Meeks said sheโll hold town hall meetings โwhen hell freezes over.โ
Itโs the typical GOP playbook โ ignore her constituents and refuse to take accountability for her extreme agenda.
She won by 0.2% in 2024. Letโs vote her out in 2026.
Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has โplenary authority,โ then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasnโt to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.
It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the โplenary authorityโ comment edited out.
