New in PN: Ramaswamy discovers that voters have their limits "This is the nature of today’s right-wing bubble, whose residents are not only acculturated to a particular political style — cruel, often hateful — but become convinced it’s the only effective way to do politics, & any other way is weak"

Replying to @atrupar.com

Republicans are super-worried if kids are called "he" or "she"--but not if they are called "dead by an assault rifle." And if your child asks to use different pronouns at school than at home, it is because they are afraid of you and know that the school will do what you will not: protect them.

Remember when Pete Hegseth's mom wrote him a letter telling him he was a misogynistic POS?

Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

EXCLUSIVE: Pete Hegseth wanted Gen. Dwight Eisenhower’s globe for his office. His staff broke it. The Pentagon denied us access to take photos, but we obtained some anyway. A story in global affairs: wapo.st/3WF2YQo

El-Sayed: "People like Vance think America is too small for some of us. I think America is big enough. America has been big enough include people whose families came, were here before anybody else showed up, or who were brought here despite themselves. His view of America is small -- small like him"

JD Vance says he doesn't care if the candidate he supports is exploiting a family tragedy in which a 12-year-old girl was raped.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

WOW -- Vance *defends* Vivek's reprehensible ad 👇 Q: Ramaswamy's campaign put out a controversial ad featuring his opponent's mother. Some Republicans are backing away. Do you think it was appropriate? JD VANCE: Well, I'll be honest. Whether the ad was appropriate or not is not really my concern.

Husted: "If they say that they're not going to vote for me, then tell them just to stay home." (This comment comes on heels of a dark money group with ties to MAGA Inc. spending $1.8M to prop up no name third party candidate Greg Levy in the Ohio Senate race)

Vivek Ramaswamy, Ken Paxton, Mike Collins, Roger Marshall, on and on - everywhere you look the most despicable humans financed by a handful of billionaires and elevated by Trump want you to give them even more political power to serve their interests at your expense.

Trump has a new scheme to bribe farmers in swing states with welfare checks of taxpayer money because fuel has gone up so much because of his war. But only money for them, not for anyone else in the country. No, we have to keep paying higher prices AND we pay Trump’s voters.

If we tax Elon Musk and his fellow billionaires appropriately, every child in America can have healthcare, education, and a well funded social safety net instead of some racist billionaire’s pathetic pr stunt

Elon Musk has said he will give every child in America a stake in SpaceX, his $2 trillion aerospace and artificial intelligence company, as tech firms face intensifying scrutiny over their impact on society. https://cnn.it/4yWTjTJ

washington dc is not trump’s personal property and must be given statehood to prevent this kind of abuse in the future

This design appears to completely eliminate the much-beloved loop road and public park at Hains Point, and cut down the cherry trees which line the road. The park is a public space used by tens of thousands of Washingtonians and heavily visited by tourists. /photos not my own.

Ossoff: "Tech titans dig bunkers while warning us the AI they're creating risks human extinction. Meanwhile, our Congress debates youth sports and the president builds a ballroom ... I refuse to leave my girls a world as dark and dangerous and cruel as this one threatens to become"

Ossoff: "At a rally earlier this week in Ohio, the president egged on supports who assaulted a woman demanding the release of the Epstein files. Because if you can count on one thing from this White House, it's their tireless commitment to war, inflation, and covering up sex trafficking."

Parents sent 3 children to school yesterday and they never returned because GUNS. FUCK YOU

Trump: "We have 5 states where your child goes off to school as Tim and comes back as Tammy 3 or 4 days later. It's true. And teachers make a decision. 'Goodbye Timmy I love you so much, I'll see you later.' And you say, 'Where's my son? My son is in the hospital.' Can you imagine?"

So we fly a pride flag in our front yard in a very conservative neighborhood and it’s been there for the last few years. Someone put this in our mailbox and my goodness…

Trump: "I'm the only one that took the test -- the aptitude test or whatever. Every time I do a physical, I do a mental test. And I aced it. Where's my doctor? I travel w/ more doctors than any human being. If people get sick in the audience, they leave them alone. They call them collateral damage."

Trump and Musk are doing everything they can to try and force Ukraine to surrender to Putin while Musk spends over $300 million to try and buy the midterm elections to maintain total power. The American government under Republicans are on the side of evil. Vote them out.

listen i won’t shed a single tear for kim or any of the women who work for trump, but it remains interesting that only the women in his orbit suffer consequences for being pieces of shit

AP: "A senior U.S. official said Sunday that Trump and Rubio are 'extremely pissed off' by Guilfoyle’s reported conduct and would likely decide on what action to take this week after Monday’s Columbus Day holiday."

it's a bit concerning that instead of responding to obvious political incentives and moderating on some of their worst and most unpopular policies, the Trump administration is getting more and more extreme

The corrupt gangsters running this government violate the law daily and use government funds for partisan politics to bribe voters in violation of the law. Trump has been emboldened by a rogue Supreme Court which has given him immunity and taken a blowtorch to the Constitution.

I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president
