I can save you some time. He doesn't name ONE SINGLE ISSUE. When asked to name what people are concerned about, he's got NOTHING. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Q: What are you hearing is the top issue for voters? Trump: I’m hearing we turned the whole thing around.

The great irony of the Ramaswamy campaign is that a significant chunk of MAGA would never vote for him because of the color of his skin. And now, he has alienated more sentient Republicans with this horrific attack on a childhood victim of sexual abuse. No strategy, no judgement, no morals, no win.
"Win or lose, Vivek Ramaswamy will be the candidate who took a woman’s childhood abuse and made it his closing argument." Read more from Rick Wilson here: https://bit.ly/4dN6ka0

Blatantly illegal. Rubio needs to be hauled in front of Congress when we finally get a Congress. www.washingtonsun.com/administrati...

Trump on Camp Lejeune water contamination claims: "If we win the House and Senate, I am directing the Department of Justice to settle all remaining legitimate claims as soon as possible ... if we don't win, there's no money."
Rubio stating the bleeding obvious wouldn't be news..were it not for Trump playing down the seriousness of the unnecessary mess he has got the US into and lying about how 'easy' it will be to forge a lasting agreement with Iran after the midterms. aje.news/r3rtel

Trump sued over Canadian Tariffs... by US food company.. because it is of course US companies and consumers that pay tariffs, not the countries that Trump seeks to harm. MAGA supporters still regularly fail the basic IQ test... who pays the tariffs? Source: BBC share.google/dsKJUcs9KJeO...
WSJ reporting that Musk authorized the slowdown in Starlink/Starshield. To me, not yet clear if Musk authorized it or ordered it or both. Either way, he has denied involvement. x.com/WSJ/status/2...
Rubio denies the US throttled Starlink/Starshield. Lying without conscience appears to be an essential qualification for high office in the US. However, history will not look favourably upon those who facilitated the actions of Russophile Trump.
⚡️Marco Rubio says Trump's Russian oil sanctions waiver is a '60-day pause,' denies restricting Starlink access. "I think the President wants to take the 60-day period of time to sort of analyze what imposing both sanctions and tariffs will mean to the global economy and even to the U.S. economy."
Talarico rightly states that Musk is trying to buy a Senate seat in Texas; a symptom of US laws that are not fit for purpose in 2026. If Dems are successful at the midterms, they must use all available powers to secure the 2028 election and prevent further pay-for-play attacks on US democracy.
Elon Musk is trying to buy this Senate seat in Texas. He wants our land, he wants our water, and he wants his own personal U.S. senator. He’s trying to buy Texas. But on November 3rd, we’ll deliver a clear message to the world’s first trillionaire: Texas is not for sale.
The media takeover by superrich Republicans/ MAGA maniacs did not start with Trump, Ellison and project 2025.. worth a listen. Jon Stewart - >2028 👍 Sadly, Amanpour is leaving CNN
Brett Meiselas: This is something that has been decades in the making… I don’t even think people totally understand how deep it goes. It’s one of the things we speak about in our new book, WTF America.. is how the seeds were planted for this right-wing infrastructure going back to the ’70s…

We've got to nationalize SpaceX. We have no choice. We can't operate our military without them and we can't trust them to serve our national interest. There is literally no other option.
The United States is actively helping Putin murder civilians in Ukraine. Trump is doing everything he can to force Ukraine to surrender to his friend and ally Putin so they can be subjugated by the Russians again.

Trump repeatedly endorses/selects incompetent idiots... why? The only essential qualification appears to be obedience. Ossoff calmly ate Collins' lunch. Future president, although probably not in 2028 unfortunately.
If this was a boxing match the ref would’ve called the fight well before this. Ossoff is an excellent debater and Collins is comically terrible. Another brilliant Trump endorsement.

The Original Sin of politics was the invention of the passive voice, when Adam and Eve ate of the Tree of Vague Unaccountability. Wild how all those violent ICE agents just … got hired … and deployed … somehow. Who can possibly say how? It’s all a mystery.
Susan Collins: "I think what happened is far too many ICE officers were hired and deployed without adequate vetting and training"

The actions by Musk & Trump are despicable & appear to stem from Ukraine’s refusal to unilaterally stop attacking energy targets. Trump now sides with Putin in this war. Some Repubs in Congress disagree, but can they, will they, apply any pressure B4 midterms? kyivindependent.com/this-cannot-...
