“America's brand was never R or D, it's independent.”
Matthew McConaughey reminds us that this November our choices don't stop at two parties.

Matthew McConaughey gets to the heart of what independence means: thinking for ourselves instead of letting political parties define what we believe.

She didn't just break with her party. She resigned to do it.
Montana Democratic Chair Shannon O’Brien stepped down, then endorsed independent Seth Bodnar over her own party’s Senate nominee.
IVN author Matt Shinners has the story.

This November, Lehigh County voters have an opportunity to take partisan control out of election oversight.
Commissioner Sarah Fevig (D) and I (I) explain why we support Ballot Question 1 in today’s Morning Call.

Both parties spend all day arguing over the details while the underlying problems go unfixed.
Independents are focused on getting to work and finding solutions that actually help us.

Countries with public executions: Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea and Somalia. (Most backwards countries on earth) if Pentagon follows through, the United States.
It’s not broader capital punishment Q…It’s whether government should turn an execution into a public spectacle.

"The number of self-identified Democrats and Republicans has shrunk significantly. There are now nearly as many independents as there are Democrats and Republicans put together, creating more favorable conditions for third-party candidates..."

I just want a party that follows the Constitution.
Is that too much to ask? 🤷🏻♂️

There is something so unAmerican and so disturbing about an American president demeaning and poking fun at a fellow American president in the presence of a communist leader, while the previous president is battling cancer.
It’s just so sickening.
As an independent, I don’t ask which party proposed an idea. I ask whether it will work, whether county government should do it and what it will cost. I work with anyone whose ideas makes sense. @FwdPennsylvania

We shouldn’t have to wonder whether our elected officials will step outside the party line when doing what’s right calls for it.
Wanting independent leadership isn’t radical.
It’s reasonable.

A record 45% of Americans now identify as political independents, tied with Republicans and Democrats at 27% each. Highest share Gallup has recorded since 1988.
The generational gap is stark: 56% of Gen Z vs. 40% of Gen X at the same age.

Listening to Independent U.S. Senate candidate Seth Bodnar in MT, one thing comes through pretty clearly: he wants things to actually get better for the people who live there.
That’s something we can all get behind.

We’ve been told the two-party system is the only way to get things done.
In 2026, we’re going to see more independents on the ballot than any time in American history.
Together, we're going to prove that they can run and win. #iamindependent #ilc
Another data center proposed in Allentown next to Coca-Cola Park. @ATownCtyCouncil strengthened rules the same day the application was filed. Unclear which ordinance applies. Another example why we need moratorium. Community should not have to race developers. @GovernorShapiro

There should be no special tax breaks for data centers. End the corporate welfare.

I’m sorry if you’re a Republican and don’t want to hear this but the National Debt is $3.6 Trillion higher than when Trump took office 18 months ago. Here’s the 90 second speech I gave the night they passed the Big Bankruptcy Bill.

Let me explain this absurd ruse: The Pentagon is pretending there have been two Iran wars separated by a brief cease-fire.
The reality: By going more than 90 days without congressional authorization @SecWar IS BREAKING THE LAW and must be held accountable.
The Pentagon removed the names of 4 servicemembers who died in Jordan from their official list of casualties. They explain that this is because "their deaths occurred after President Trump declared a cease-fire in the war in April."
