GOP Rep. Tom Kean disappeared for 4 months & missed dozens of votes then finally surfaced, read a 5 minute speech saying he was at a mental health facility, refused to take questions from the press, and MAGA supports his reelection. But the Talarico hoax is career ending.

Walmart is the largest private employer in America, yet 16,055 of its employees were on Medicaid in just 6 states, and 15,515 were receiving food stamps in 9 states. Mostly red states. And those aren’t even national totals. #RepublicanAffordabilityCrisis

@jeffhauser.bsky.social on how DOGE alumni have "enormous juice" in what they once derided as the "swamp" of Washington politics. Reason: the knowledge (data) they garnered during their brief tenures.
washingtonpost.com
They came to Washington to dismantle government. Now, they’re profiting from it.
DOGE alumni have leveraged their government experience, raising at least half a billion dollars for firms spanning cyberwarfare, AI and data centers, a Post analysis found.

The Dem firm TargetSmart looked at early voting in the 229 counties that are currently reporting it. Latinos are nearly 8% of early vote. Nearly 112,000 have voted early, more than 2024 in raw votes. Check out the details here: newrepublic.com/article/2164...
