Exactly
The Maryland Democratic Party has lost its way, and that's ME saying it.
Y'all run every single part of this state. The governor's office, the legislature, almost every county. And somehow every problem is still Washington's fault? Dude. You own the whole house and you're blaming the neighbors for the leaky roof.
And you just admitted in this very post the amendment could have been written more simply. This is literally deciding who represents Marylanders in Congress and you need a law degree to understand it… you admit it should have been written better, so… So why WASN'T it? You had the pen.
"Trust us, just this once" is what every politician, especially in Maryland, says right before the next once.
Stop gaslighting Marylanders about who's in charge. You are. Fix the potholes, fix the MVA, fix what people pay just to live here, and write things in plain English. Until then, spare us the speeches and grandstanding.
Maryland deserves better.
Smart

Aww,that’s awesome. Happy Columbus Day!
“I see my Italian lawyer over here, he’s so vicious.”
Honored to get an Italian shout-out from President Trump in a room full of Italians at the White House to celebrate Christopher Columbus Day.
My Dad, Grandparents (who came to the United States from southern Italy – Castelfranco in Miscano), and my Great Grandparents were no doubt smiling down from heaven.
Tomorrow is Christopher Columbus Day – a federal holiday Rescued and Restored by President Donald J. Trump and lots of patriotic Italian Americans!
Italian Americans have no better friend than President Trump. He is the GOAT.
H/t to @LisaDeP for this fun idea to run my posts through Grok with the prompt “based on my tweets and the attached photo can you generate a vintage 1960’s movie poster of me?”

Friends, when Paul says, “Have no anxiety at all,” he doesn’t mean eliminating all fear and worry. And the clue is in what he says next: “But in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God.”
Paul knows that, like an ocean, the surface of our lives will always have crashing waves and winds. But just as the ocean’s depths remain perfectly serene despite the storm above, we, too, can find peace by moving to a deeper and more central place: the place where you are here and now being created by God.
Root your life in Christ—and you will find serenity despite any and all anxiety.
And this is one of the many reasons I will vote for @VoteforEsther
In @MontgomeryCoMD, @CMJawando, the dem candidate for county exec, refuses to debate his opponent, @VoteforEsther. Not one of the feckless Dems will call him out on it. Then @arunamiller has the nerve to say he “shows up.” It would be laughable if not so pathetic & hypocritical.

🚨PSA: The wording of Question 3 on your ballot is very confusing. Simply put, a vote for Question 3 is a vote to remove constitutional protections and allow EXTREME partisan gerrymandering in Maryland.
Vote AGAINST Question 3 to STOP gerrymandering, defend our constitutional protections, and require fairer maps, districts, and representation.

*Consumer prices today are 27.2 percent higher than they were in January 2021.
*Something that cost $100 when Biden took office now costs about $127.
*Biden bears the lion’s share of the blame for that cumulative increase.
*The consumer price index rose 21.4 percent from January 2021 to January 2025 (Biden’s term), while it has risen just 4.8 percent since Trump took office.
*In other words, of that $27 in rising costs, about $21 came on Biden’s watch.

Sen. @RandPaul has blocked the Kids Online Safety Act, warning that its “duty of care” would incentivize platforms to censor lawful speech. reason.com/2026/10/02/rand-p…
MUST WATCH! @RandPaul is a hero for standing up for free speech. Thank you, Senator @Rand Paul and staff.
Senator .@RandPaul blocked a shortcut to pass the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) without a debate or a recorded vote.
KOSA is sold as "child safety."
The fine print is a censorship bill: platforms decide what kids may see, and the only way to sort kids from adults is to check everyone.
Parents are the firewall.
A government mandated duty of care is not.
Thank you, Senator Paul!

👏 @RandPaul for standing up against KOSA and blocking an attempt to fast-track the bill through the Senate.

Thank you, @DrRandPaul! One sane voice among senators propelled by moral panic.
'Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) blocked an effort from Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) on Wednesday to pass by unanimous consent the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), a long-sought bill that intends to protect kids in the digital space.'

Great news!!!
.@RandPaul blocked senators Blackburn and Blumenthal’s effort to pass KOSA by unanimous consent.
KOSA is online censorship and surveillance. Shame on these lawmakers for trying to pass these surveillance and digital ID frameworks on the backs of our children!!

The sponsors claim that they have included protections for free speech. Those protections are illusory.
State right to publicity laws are generally limited to commercial use of another's likeness. The No Fakes Act creates a right that includes even non-commercial uses, which sweeps in a truly massive amount of First Amendment activity.
Thank you, @SenTedCruz !!!
Great stuff
