The contribution limit for an individual is $3,500. Elon Musk, a government contractor, is trying to purchase Congress. Billionaires are smothering our elections for their personal gain. Get big money out of politics.

I have been praying for this kind of pushback from Democrats against Elon Musk for a long time now and I am thrilled that the Talarico camp is leaning into it. Light. Him. Up.

NEW AD: Have you seen these anti-Talarico attack ads? Elon Musk paid for nearly all of them. The world's first trillionaire knows if he drags the most corrupt politician in Texas across the finish line, Ken Paxton will owe him everything. Elon Musk: Texas is not for sale.

Wow! Amy Acton’s new ad is shocking. She’s talking about the issues Ohioans are concerned about and not trashing her opponent. To be fair, she doesn’t need to. Vivek already trashed himself.

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Instead of Texans sending Ken Paxton to Washington, they should ask where the hell he’s been for the last decade. Here’s what investigators uncovered: 📌 730 workdays: Left blank on Paxton's official calendars, equivalent to nearly 3 years of standard workdays

Thirty years ago, Susan Collins promised Maine voters she’d serve only two terms. Now she’s a multimillionaire asking them for a sixth. Her current net worth is estimated to be roughly $6.8 million. Not bad for a Senate salary of $174,000 per year.

President @barackobama.bsky.social showed me something in myself I might never have seen without him. I’m humbled to have his support in this fight. The Affordable Care Act will have laid the groundwork for guaranteed healthcare and I'm honored to pick up his baton and finally pass Medicare for All.

Susan Collins was under investigation for corruption, and based on the evidence, this seems very much like her game. Vote the corrupt enabler out, Maine.

DHS claims the man ran in front of their SUV. You be the judge.

The @houstonchronicle.com posted this video and it's pretty jarring. No matter that he was fleeing, law enforcement officers may not use deadly force on someone who poses no significant risk of death or serious injury to others. Deliberately hitting someone with a car is a use of deadly force.

LOL Ukraine hit a Russian data center and Russian bot activity immediately dropped to practically zero. Elon is mad hahahahahaha

The people still standing by Trump are literally the dumbest people on the planet. No ability to understand or follow logic and reasoning.

Trump sanctioned the International Criminal Court while simultaneously easing sanctions on Russia which is massacring Ukrainian civilians. A masterclass in criminality and corruption.

Anonymous@youranoncentral.bsky.social

Trump announced a deal with Putin to sell 4.8 million tonnes of Russian diesel, potentially worth $7.24 billion, while easing US sanctions. The deal would boost Russia’s war finances and undermine Ukraine’s efforts to cut off revenues funding Russia’s invasion.

Ken Paxton and Greg Abbott have plenty to say when they're attacking Texans' rights, but suddenly have nothing to say when it's time to debate their opponents. Texans deserve answers, accountability, and leaders who aren't afraid to face the people they're asking to represent.
