Richard voted for Donald Trump 3 times. Then the Iran war sent diesel prices soaring. Now he’s voting for Jon Ossoff. Here’s why: "I ain't gonna lie to you. I'm PO'd the way things cost. All day long driving. Gonna be way more expensive. Jon is who we need; he stands up for us."

This Saturday: No Kings. This isn't a protest, it's a threat to the status quo. We're taking the fight from the streets to the ballot box. Democracy doesn't belong to the spectators; it belongs to the ones who show up and demand it. Vote early. 🗳️🔥

Pure deer-in-the-headlights. Michael Whatley was left visibly speechless on Fox News after Roy Cooper pointed out he has zero plan for North Carolina and is just running on orders from Trump. When even Fox News humbles you on live television, it's over.

"There's something uniquely despicable about lying a nation into war, treating citizens as fools, and the selfless patriots who serve as pawns." Jon Ossoff exposes the cover-up of combat casualties and false threat claims that dragged America into a disastrous conflict.

I love this! Talarico says he’s heard credible reports that Ken Paxton has a serious medical condition causing clinical levels of cowardice. Sir, that diagnosis landed. Paxton wanted proof of life. Texas wants proof of a spine🔥. I’d pay good money to watch him try to produce one.

Darline Graham says she’s representing “the people in Washington” and refuses another debate. I’m sorry, are South Carolina voters inconveniencing you? We get to ask questions before handing you a Senate term. You don’t get to skip that part. We all know that she’s just afraid to debate.

Annie Andrews asked whether you’d hand a scalpel to a surgeon who says appendectomies aren’t his thing. Hell no. So why hand Darline Graham a full term in the Senate? Our lives aren’t somebody’s practice run. Vote Annie Andrews. We deserve someone who takes the job seriously.

Annie Andrews said no to a $50 billion war overseas. She named what that money could fund instead: schools, infrastructure, healthcare. Our money, spent on our lives. Hell yes. Vote for Annie Andrews. I want a senator who gives a damn about what we actually need.

Josh Shapiro put out a fierce call to accountability: "He's not thinking about giving you healthcare or restoring SNAP benefits... He’s making deals that hurt you." Pennsylvania needs leaders who stand up against chaos and put working families first.

"He thinks the answer to this is to call up Vladimir Putin?" Josh Shapiro rips apart chaotic leadership that leaves Pennsylvania farmers paying $6.50 for diesel and families paying $4.60 for gas. Ignoring that Putin is allied with Iran is dangerous incompetence.

David Crowley on MS NOW: It's very clear that this election doesn't just affect us here in the state, it also affects those across this entire country. We're not going to let billionaires buy this election. I'm running against an election denier and we can't have them in the Governor's office.

Oh, so they wrote the rules for their donors, gutted your health care, jacked up your rent, and now they want you too tired to vote? Cute. Here's a wild idea: vote early, skip the lines, and watch their faces when "defeated" turns out to be their word, not ours. Beat 'em @ the ballot box!

We can’t take what Trump said lightly! Trump: 'Let him take out Los Angeles. Let him take out San Diego. It's a small price to pay.' He said that. Millions dead - a small price to pay. Vote Democratic on November 3rd—because the alternative just invited someone to bomb us.

Want a new phone or laptop? Too bad. AI data centers are sucking up chip supplies, driving up prices on everything from laptops to smart TVs and consoles. We’re paying the tech-bro tax so chatbots can write bad poetry and hall-of-fame slop. Wonderful.

Troy Jackson called Susan Collins an arsonist who helped set the fire and now wants credit for bringing a cup of water. I’m glad somebody finally put the problem into plain English: helping cause the damage doesn’t earn you applause for showing up with a tiny fix.

"My opponent has become a multi-millionaire buying stocks in data center companies that he regulates." Voted Four times to silence local communities, and tax cuts for big tech, and millions in tech stocks. Michigan needs a leader who puts residents before corporate profits.

Picture a Georgia mom counting dollars for diapers, groceries, and pads. Keisha Lance Bottoms, the Democratic nominee for governor, says suspend those taxes so Georgians can afford necessities. Relief at the register is the kind of help families actually feel.

JB Pritzker called on Congressional Republicans to return to the floor and rein in the A.I. industry before it's too late. Powerful tech companies should not get a free pass to reshape jobs, spread deception, and harvest our lives without consequences.

Michigan families are paying for Trump’s war every time they buy groceries or fill the tank. Gas rose more than a dollar a gallon after the U.S. action in Iran. We could have chosen peace. Instead, Trump chose a war and handed working people the bill.

Fox says the pain at the pump and in the pantry is real. So does the $6.51 national diesel average, nearly twice last year’s price. Farmers, truckers, and families carry the cost while Republicans campaign around the damage instead of fixing it.

NORM EISEN: “This is shocking… ProPublica reports Susan Collins told the company ‘You’ve seen me deliver’ and then a six-figure sum, according to ProPublica, also moved to the Collins super PAC... This has to be investigated, these are very serious allegations of corruption."

James Talarico called Ken Paxton’s cell to invite him to a Fox News debate with Bret Baier. Paxton didn’t pick up. Talarico has accepted four local-TV debates; Paxton has committed to none. Texans deserve more than a Senate candidate who ghosts the debate stage. Still NO Paxton😂

Ashley Hinson isn't fooling Iowa farmers. They know she voted for skyrocketing diesel prices caused by Trump's War of choice. Farmers are speaking out against the skyrocketing diesel prices. The Hill: Iowa is becoming "tricky territory" for the GOP. Vote Blue. Vote the GOP out.

Somewhere in Texas, a Republican voter looked at their own party's slate, called it "not desirable," and picked James Talarico instead. Nobody had to twist an arm. The slate did the persuading all by itself, and Talarico just had to be on the ballot.

Republicans call Medicaid cuts “savings.” The Congressional Budget Office says 7.5 million more people will lose insurance. Apparently, the GOP budget plan involves saving money by making Americans choose between a doctor visit, medication, groceries, and rent. Brilliant.

78 percent of Farmers voted for trump in 2024. They’re bleeding money like crazy.” A warning from Iowa comes as harvest gets underway and diesel costs hammer both farms and trucking. When the people producing and moving food cannot cover the fuel bill, family’s are paying for Republicans’ failure

Moderator: Do you feel like Trump is a drag? Paxton: To be honest, the numbers, when we did the convention, it dropped our numbers. Everybody’s numbers dropped. Right now? Yeah. It’s not good. I wish there was something we could do to turn that around, but obviously nothing.

Trump lost 18-29-year-olds by 11 points in 2024. Now his net approval with them sits at -47, a 40-point collapse. On the economy, the issue he supposedly won, his approval among voters under 30 is -62. They saw the bill, and they know who sent it.

Ashley Hinson chose a press conference on affordability, then her campaign forcibly removed Iowans from it. Grocery bills, gas prices, rent, health care: Iowans deserve answers, not campaign staff treating constituents like a problem to be dragged away.

"It's corruption in plain sight." Rep. Pete Aguilar, CA-33 U.S. House candidate, calls out how working families are forced to skip doctor visits to put food on the table, while Trump made $2B off foreign payments and crypto schemes in office. We must hold them accountable.

Mary Peltola stood in Valdez with prices every Alaskan understands: $5.25 for gas, $6.75 for diesel. Dan Sullivan voted 12 times to continue the Iran war, and each vote drove fuel costs higher across Alaska. He chose the war. Alaskan families, fishermen, and truckers got the bill.
