Republicans had two years to make life cheaper. They chose to make it more expensive, then held press conferences about how well it went. Thirty days to grade that homework properly and give Democrats the Majority in Congress. #BlueWaveIn30Days

"House Republicans will continue to hold Hunter Biden’s feet to the fire... no one–not even the president’s son–is above the law.” -Tom Emmer, 1.17.24 "Don Jr is a private citizen and businessman so this unwarranted attack will go nowhere," -Tom Emmer, 9.23.26 @GOPMajorityWhip

Crowd chants "Shame on you!" at Sen. Roger Marshall for his medical debt collection practice that experts called "extreme" and "unbelievably aggressive." Sen. Marshall, who is up for reelection this year, had 81 of his former patients arrested for struggling to pay their medical bills.

Our President and Vice President are picking a fight with Canada because they’re getting their asses kicked by Iran.

Mariana was brought here as a minor & then abandoned. She learned English, graduated from Central High & UNO with honors & then earned her pilot's license. Deporting her is disgraceful. Most Americans want a secure border, dangerous people deported, but also want decency & humanity. nebraskaexaminer.com/2026/08…

US president, Ronald Reagan, and Canadian Prime Minister, Brian Mulroney, in 1988. Later that year, Reagan said: “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogs who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag."

BREAKING: the national average is now at its highest ever level this late in the calendar year, according to GasBuddy data. Meaning the national average has never been above $4/gal after Aug. 12 in any previous year- ever.

Pro-Trump states and counties had far higher COVID death rates. Misinformation and disinformation were to blame. Trump and Musk were the biggest propagators of misinformation in terms of reach.

Gonna explain it so that even completely brain dead #MAGA cult members can understand it: I live in Los Angeles. I am a moderate who can’t stand the ultra left and ultra right. Bass isn’t great and maybe she will lose to the progressive who will run against her? She would have much rather been running against Pratt in November! She would have had a 95% of winning against Pratt. Maybe a 60% chance now against Raman. Anyone who thinks there is fraud is happening is either incredibly stupid OR purposefully lying—no other choices. Statistically and indisputably, 75% of Los Angeles is either Democrats or independents who lean Democrat because the candidates who are Republican always end up being stupid MAGA clowns since 2016. Trump got 26% of the vote in Los Angeles in 2024. Pratt will end up with slightly less than that, which makes sense, since he ran his campaign as an obnoxious MAGA asshole in an environment where Trump’s approval ratings are their lowest ever! Most people in L.A. vote by mail, in a 100.00% legal way, and often wait until the last few days before/on election day to send their ballots in. Those mail-in ballots lean SUPER HEAVILY to Democrats, ironically because the same brainless MAGA cult members attack mail-in-voting and hurt what ever absolutely miniscule chance they have of winning! So stop the fucking nonsense. Election deniers are among the dumbest organisms—and claiming fraud in this Los Angeles Mayoral election is the dumbest of the dumb.

This is what Trump Derangement Syndrome actually looks like.
🚨 A Republican Dad shot and killed his liberal daughter after an argument about Trump. Just before killing her, he told her that he would “not be upset” if Trump sexually assaulted her.

Why does the world still allow trophy hunting? We've done so much harm already. RT if you think there should be a worldwide ban on this barbaric practice. Nature is amazing. Protect it. #ActOnClimate #climate #TrophyHunting #nature #rewilding #GreenNewDeal #biodiversity
