Nipher Middle School alum @fpwellman.bsky.social stopped by the Nipher Fry Booth today at the Kirkwood Greentree Festival while my wife and I were frying up famous Nipher Fries. Looks like we might have ourselves a Democrat ready to unseat Ann Wagner in the Missouri 2nd!

Want to show your support? You can send your members of Congress a message right now.
Senators Josh Hawley and Eric Schmitt, along with Congresswoman Ann Wagner received my messages today. Take a second and add your voice as well.
Today, only a fraction of new ideas for how to prevent, treat, and cure cancer are getting the funding they need to move forward. For the future of cancer cures and researchers, we need Congress to increase #CancerResearch funding in the next spending bill. Send them a message now ⬇️

Today, we joined organizations representing millions of cancer patients, survivors, and providers to send a letter to @hhsofficial.bsky.social Secretary Kennedy about the importance of the #USPSTF in the fight against cancer, urging protection for the integrity of its work.
We can't afford to stand still in the fight against cancer. We fought for something better before, and we need your help to do it again. act.fightcancer.org/a/presidents...

URGENT: U.S. Senators are expected to vote *today* on a critical bill that, if passed, will be the most impactful cancer-fighting bill Congress has approved in years. Send a message to your Senators now and urge them to vote YES on this bill to help save more lives from #cancer.
@repangiecraig.bsky.social watched you on @cnn.com just now with Manu Raju. You earned a follow. Perfect example of how Democrats need to respond in this situation. Bravo.

We gathered cancer advocates nationwide to share their hope for the future of cancer cures. These hopes can become a reality via #CancerResearch. That’s why we need Congress to act. Send a message urging them to prioritize lifesaving cancer research in the spending bill: go.fightcancer.org/4qqhK7W
If you’ve received a letter from your health insurer saying that your health care costs are going up, take a moment to share your rate increase on social media to keep pressure on Congress to prioritize people’s health. Need sample posts? I got you covered --> act.fightcancer.org/a/share-your... /2

Oh gosh, I really don't like him guys. Like REALLY don't.
Reporter: Have you seen the musical before and do you identify more with Jean Valjean or Javert? Trump: Oh, that's a tough one, the last part of that question. That's tough, I think. You better answer that one, honey. I don't know. I've seen it. We've seen it a number of times. It's fantastic.

10 years ago, a Senator would have been forced to resign because of the shame piled upon them over something like this. If we want to make America great again, let's get back to that shall we? #joniernst #weareallgonnadie

We are having to translate the presidential daily security briefing into cartoons and videos games so that the current President will pay attention long enough. WHAT ARE WE DOING.
WTF. This is the most sensitive, classified information and they want a Fox News anchor/producer to have access to it? Good luck having anyone share intel info with us. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

Another example of how drastically shallow the bench depth is in the MAGA movement. It's comprised of a large, uninformed electorate and a small handful of sycophants in charge, forced to wear multiple hats to compensate. How badly does our nation suffer b/c these roles aren't faithfully executed?

We already have a process where we can get them out...it's called DUE PROCESS. This interview is going to be evidence in so many future court cases it astounds me. The man undermines himself the moment he has to think on his feet.
Q: "In our country, even bad guys get due process, right?" Trump: "If people come into our country illegally, there's a different standard." Q: "But they get due process?" Trump: "Well, they get a process where we have to get them out."

I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth...but I can't help be slightly disgusted that it was people losing MONEY, and not human rights, or due process, or national security that is finally driving Republicans to consider restraining Donald Trump.
The fallout from President Trump's aggressive new tariffs has spurred Congress into action, with a growing number of Republicans joining Democrats to express interest in using their power to restrain him.
