LOL! We are two years into Trump and Republicans are still blaming Biden for all the economic issue we are facing. I have no doubt in the 3rd & 4th of Trump, Republicans will still blame all the economic issues we are facing on Biden.

Let’s not forget that this illegal Reflecting Pool indictment was also overseen by Todd Blanche. He could have stopped this at any time, but he was a corrupt and willing accomplice to this fraud upon the court. How can any decent person possibly vote for this man as AG?

Elon Musk is planning to spend at least $100 million to help Republicans in this year’s midterms. That’s just 0.014 percent of his current $702 billion net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

Where is Mitch McConnell? He has been out of public view for more than a month. Kentucky deserves answers. If he can’t fulfill the responsibilities of the office, Kentucky deserves a special election. @govandybeshear.bsky.social #KYSpecialElection #SheShed
black, white, and red graphic styled like a covert mission poster. Large text reads “Mission: Find Mitch” beside an edited image of Mitch McConnell in tactical gear rappelling down a building. The graphic states he has been out of public view for over a month and includes a large digital counter showing “38” days since his last public appearance. A bold banner across the bottom reads, “Time for a Special Election.” The Reformers logo appears at the top.
