Having 'Incumbent" next to your name is a huge advantage, especially if your policies are popular.

Q: Why shouldn't Alaskans find it insulting that the administration is suggesting they can't read the word 'incumbent' on their ballot and know to vote for Sen. Sullivan? JD VANCE: People are busy. People have lives. People have jobs.

Bigotry is so normalized you can say absolute batshit like this without consequences

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Watching Berserker (1987) and a cop pulls over a pickup truck with four teens riding in the cab and two more making out back in the bed and he just gives them a warning for tossing out a beer can lolz.

Bigotry has become so normalized that bigots are wide open with their views and are unafraid to escalate their rhetoric in any forum.

"Fox News hosts are professional propagandists. I think they looked at Zacharia as someone who was not capable of covering for Donald Trump when he gets in trouble, someone who wouldn’t be able to lash out at the media for daring to cover him, and they helped her off stage because of that."

This is off the topic, but I've never understood why Super Clown remains seated in these photo ops. Is he too good to stand? And why does he smile like he's shitting a pine cone?

I suspect our council members in Memphis and Mayor are way ahead of the game.

Trump: "As far as data centers, we don't want to get controversial. The community that they're been built -- they're great, they give you a lot of money -- ask for a lot of money. Tell them to pay you $10,000, $15,000, $20k for everybody who lives in the community. They'll do it! You just gotta ask"

If you ever wanted an example of a rich guy using racism to make poor people your enemy.

Trump: "Somalia -- 98% of the people here now from Somalia don't work. They don't have to work because they steal so much. They all have a Mercedes Benz. Low IQ and they live better than you do."

When gas rose after the Ukraine invasion, hayseed Republicans in my FB warned of “people from the city” sneaking in at night to suck the gas out of their 2011 F-150s.

Trump: "While oil prices are temporarily high ... the United States oil and gas business is making hundreds of billions of dollars"

Gassed up in Marked Tree Arkansas yesterday and everyone at the pump was cussing about the price. If republicans are losing Marked Tree they’re in trouble

It’s kind of crazy how much he talks to his rally goers as if they the gang at his club who will make a fortune off things everyone hates. Like data centers and gas prices and war.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump on data centers: "I say let them come in ... you should really be cool on data centers because you can make a fortune with the data centers" (Note the total silence of the crowd during this rant!)

Just yesterday he said he knew nothing about this. Then the accordion hands!

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

I stayed at the Bass Pro Pyramid hotel two years ago, because America, so now I get their promotional emails. I want everyone to know about this Winter Escape sale so you, too, can engage in sexual activity inside a Bass Pro Shop without the usual shame associated with it.

Q: Do you think it's right for the richest man in the world to have so much power over what goes on in a war because Russia and Ukraine? TRUMP: Well, I don't think he does. First of all, he's a very good person. He's not gonna do anything wrong. Elon will never do anything wrong.

Dang, the Thunder are still on this list? We're doomed.

Remember to report any coworker that has something mean to say about Charlie Kirk.

Trump: "What's happened is the press has ganged up on a woman making a horrible statement about her daughter, and I don't why she should be shielded. She said she was a dirty liar ... I say she's fair game."

Looking forward to NBA Today until I realized I was going to see more Lebron highlights from Tuesday's game 76ers/Knicks game than I was going to see of any highlight from last night.

Love that these clowns think anyone here ever gave a rat’s ass about Orban.

LOL -- JD Vance says "I've endorsed one foreign candidate in my entire life, and it didn't go particularly well, as much as I'm very much an admirer of Orban"

The zombie like instinct to shout "USA" whenever there is dissent.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

wow -- a protester right behind Vance spikes his MAGA hat and start yelling at Vance before getting hauled out. Vance smears him for allegedly looking like he hasn't washed his hair.

I voted early this time but I usually vote on Election Day because you don't know what you'll find out between now and then.

Thor Benson@thorbenson.bsky.social

The cool thing about voting early is that it makes you better than everyone else. Remember that

The solution is always, let rich guys get even richer.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

FOX NEWS: What do you tell voters is your plan to make their lives more affordable? DARLINE GRAHAM: The long term solution is easing regulations on drilling and oil refineries. Under Democrats, gas prices are going to be permanently high

Money remains undefeated.
