I'm going to keep saying this...We have to stop being scared of the word socialism, it is not communism. We have many socialist programs in this country that people like: FDIC bank account insurance, farm subsidies, unemployment insurance, and Medicare to name a few.

Bale Dalton: My opponent says that the war in Iran and rising gas prices are the cost of freedom. Well, I'm pretty sure that we had freedom before entering into this war of choice in which the only thing that is a viable alternative of getting out is a worse situation than when we got in.

My fellow Mississippians I do give a damn that you’re suffering at the pump. Cindy High Prices cares more about what’s best for her MAGA daddy than us. #PickAnotherSenator

Alaskans have had enough of the same, tired story – DC politicians selling us out to corporate greed. It’s time for a new one. I’m fighting to pass term limits, ban congressional stock trading, and crack down on illegal price gouging.

Our @nlanard.bsky.social spoke with Rep. Mark Amodei about why he didn’t support David Flippo, the fellow Nevada Republican running to replace him. “Who’s paying for this guy’s ‘personal loans’ to his campaign?” he asked.

motherjones.comExperts say land venture linked to David Flippo is “batshit” and a “huge red flag”The Nevada Republican benefited from hundreds of thousands of dollars of political donations tied to a dubious Arizona company in which he claims to have a seven-figure stake.

Our elections should be decided by Alaskans, not by out-of-state billionaires and dark money super PACs flooding our TVs with attack ads. Overturn Citizens United.

As one of the candidates featured in these polls - the infamous one in late June that showed me plummeting into single digits (which was at odds with our internals) - here's the impact of this "experiment"

NEW AD: “Ken Paxton says I don't have his experience — and he's right. I’ve never been indicted for fraud. I’ve never been reported to the FBI for bribery. I’ve never been impeached by my own party. And I’ve never given a sweetheart deal to a pedophile.”

Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

A despicable ad from Vivek Ramaswamy who is a despicable person. Desperate Republicans have run some horrible, dishonest ads to distract from their failures in office, but maybe none worse than this one.

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

The hallmark of the modern reactionary is that they are so immersed in their own bullshit that they don’t understand how facile and corny their understanding of the world is.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Russia is cooperating with Iran. So why is Trump cooperating with Russia? Like the diesel deal, this decision is a gift to the very forces attacking our service members.

Q: Will you disavow the Muslim Brotherhood? El-Sayed: Yes. Why are you asking the question? Do you assume that I wouldn’t? Q: Yes, because I have not heard you disavow them yet. El-Sayed: Have you disavowed them? I have not heard you disavow them yet.

Trump has proven he will twist and abuse this law. While he let its trade powers lie for the moment, the law also empowers him to put new tariffs on our allies and trading partners. Congress MUST fix this flawed law to stop Trump from capitulating to Putin and ensure that it truly supports Ukraine.

Troy Jackson: "Sen. Collins says that she voted against it 9 times, but she didn't have the votes. Well, that sounds like then we probably ought to have Democrats in charge of the Senate so we have the votes to stop this war and hold Donald Trump in check. It sounds like Republicans won't do that."
