This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.

Let’s go!!! Vote!

Pentagon officials are ready to cooperate with Democrats planning to investigate Pete Hegseth if they retake Congress. Some of those closest to Hegseth even said in private that they're ready to “spill their guts” the moment they get the chance. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2026...

Ohio, this asshole thinks child victims of rape become flawed adults. Don’t give this POS your vote. End this era of Republican garbage.

NEW: Vivek Ramaswamy says Amy Acton being a victim of childhood sexual abuse makes her “flawed” while defending his ad featuring her estranged mother. “In politics sometimes it's a tough sport.”

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

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

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"

Trump hates our military and republicans won’t do a damn thing about it.

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

This is a disgrace, and it directly impacts our military readiness. Some 1,300 Navy family members were evacuated from Bahrain during the Iran war. Months later, families are still displaced, separated from loved ones, struggling financially, and waiting for answers. #SupportTheTroops 🧵

This ad & Ramaswamy's doubling down speaks volumes about his character. To lie about the abuse Acton experienced is abhorrent. To use the abuser is despicable & sadistic. If this is how he behaves on the campaign trail, imagine his depravity with gubernatorial power www.axios.com/2026/10/21/r...

Congrats republicans. Your dear leader can identify a giraffe. How embarrassing.

Trump: "The first one is they show you a lion, a bear, a snake, and a giraffe. And they say, 'Which one is the giraffe?' I got a perfect score."

California’s billionaires have a combined net worth of $2.4 trillion. Under Prop 40, their net worth would fall to…just under $2.3 trillion. What amounts to a rounding error for them would allow millions of their fellow Californians to afford healthcare. Vote yes on Prop 40.

Trump wants to make sure it’s as easy as possible for his friend Putin to bomb apartment buildings and kill children. He’s not just the worst president in history, he’s the most evil person to ever serve at the highest level of government. Vote out his weak Republican enablers.

WSJ is reporting that the Trump regime is investigating Rep. Ilhan Omar to build a case to strip her of US citizenship, forcibly remove her from office, & deport her. Please understand how dangerous and catastrophic this is. It’s already fascism that he’s trying to do this. 1/2

The billionaires are complicit. Don’t let them gaslight us. Vote out republicans.

Billions of dollars’ worth of contracts predicting oil would fall and the S&P 500 would rise were placed about 15 minutes before Trump announced a U-turn on Iran in a post on Truth Social. CFTC staff began to investigate...then were told to lay off. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.gov

Tom Homan, the man leading Trump’s authoritarian “investigation” of Rep. Ilhan Omar right before the midterm, was caught by the FBI accepting a bribe of $50,000 in cash in a paper bag. Trump’s DOJ simply dropped the case and covered it up. The most corrupt presidential administration in history.

Zelenskyy: "Prices are rising because of the war in the Middle East, the blocking of Hormuz. Everyone understands it. If we want to speak with people fairly, if we want to be clear, if we want to speak with our nations openly, people have to hear reality. Don't play games with people."

🚨 BREAKING: The Pentagon has raised the official death toll of U.S. troops during the war with Iran to 21, with 865 wounded, weeks after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called reporting that the military had undercounted deaths “a complete lie.”

“We are enforcing the nation’s laws. Why is that controversial?” The Fugitive Slave Act. The Three-Fifths Compromise. The Nuremberg Laws. Dred Scott. The Indian Removal Act. The Law for Protection of German Blood. Anti-miscegenation laws. The Defense of Marriage Act. The Reichstag Fire Decree.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social

Mullin began the press conference by saying "We are enforcing this nation's laws. Why is it controversial? Why would that be controversial?" As if all of human history doesn't show that laws and their enforcement can be very controversial (e.g., the 1765 Stamp Act and its impact on U.S. history).

I’m loving the “well akshually he didn’t REALLY mean let Iran take out Los Angeles and San Diego” excuses today. Cool. Explain the assholes in the crowd who thought it was fucking hilarious. Deplorables wasn’t strong enough.

An American "president" saying it's acceptable for Iran to annihilate Los Angeles and San Diego But the worst part isn't that Trump has normalized such traitorous, cowardly behavior No-the worst part is the people in the crowd CHEERING And not a single Republican will stand up and say ENOUGH
