In case anyone has any doubt that the Republican Party has sold out the United States to dangerous, treasonous criminals…this 🧵 is absolutely 🤯. At this point it is every American’s patriotic duty to vote out every Republican at every level for bringing this broligarch disaster on us and the world.

One in four Mississippians rely on Medicaid. Let that sink in. Now think about what $1 trillion in cuts means for our families, hospitals and communities. Cindy Hyde-Smith voted in favor of that.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to talk with me and share what matters most to them. When I’m elected to the U.S. Senate, I’ll represent every Mississippian — whether you voted for me or not. That’s what the job is all about. #MississippiMatters

Walking the line outside the Trump rally in Corinth, I was reminded that more unites us than divides us here in Mississippi. I heard from folks who want to get foreign money out of our elections, put an end to flock cameras, keep our border secure, and make sure our veterans are taken care of.

Trump talks about the Cheesecake Factory part of Obama’s speech so that’s what #FoxNews propaganda covers. They just amplify what he says. Don’t stop talking about the cruelty, chaos, and corruption part of the speech, directly linking This regime’s actions to American life becoming unaffordable.

Obama’s Cheesecake Factory line clearly didn’t bother him at all 😬

Trump wins if he gets us talking about the Cheesecake Factory instead of how he, his crime family, his billionaire buddies, and his Russian oligarchs are making billions off the US Presidency while the American people suffer.

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

8. THEN HE PUSHED TO RESTRICT SECOND CHANCES FOR OTHERS Donalds championed the D.C. CRIMES Act, which would reduce youth-offender eligibility from age 24 to 18 and restrict sentencing flexibility.

7. DONALDS GOT A SECOND CHANCE Donalds received pretrial diversion for a marijuana charge in 1997. After pleading no contest to felony theft in 2000, he served probation and later had his record expunged. Those second chances didn’t stop him from becoming a congressman.

One week before midterm elections that will serve as a referendum on his second term, President Trump is struggling to deliver on his campaign promise to bring down costs, even as he insists the country has entered an economic "golden age." https://to.pbs.org/4sn56Iq

pbs.orgTrump promised to stop inflation. Now Republicans may pay the price in the midterm electionsVoters blame Trump, pointing to the Republican president's tariff policies and the war he started with Iran.

yogaskidogs.bsky.social reposted

Failed to stop inflation? That’s letting Trump off the hook. Trump CAUSED price increases. His stupid war is why fuel prices are sky-high. Everything else costs more because of that.

Trump promise to bring down costs, but inflation is still outpacing paychecks. With the midterms a week away, Democrats are trying to tap into voters’ frustration in the midterms.

The Republican Party AND The Far Right…? The Republican Party IS The Far Right. They abandoned anything other than extremism when they put their full, unmitigated support into aiding and abetting the entirety of this fascist MAGA regime and all its cronies, and they KNEW the consequences.

Too late, "some Republicans." You sold your soul and can't get out of this deal. Even if the US somehow manages to claw its way out of this mess, the Republican Party will forever be known as a fascist one, much like the AfD is in Germany. And this was ALL your fault, and you WILLINGLY chose it.

The agency regularly monitors polling places. But this year's effort on Nov. 3 will more than double the number of federal monitors deployed during the 2022 midterms, when the DOJ under President Biden sent out 388 people to polling places, confirmed by a DOJ official to PBS News.
