Trump thinks he can bribe the American people, but voters have been burned by his failed promises too many times. They're tired of his corruption and the Republicans in Congress who refuse to stop him. It's time to send them all packing this November.

We’re more than 7 months into Trump’s war with Iran with no clear end in sight. Servicemembers have been injured and killed, while this war drives up costs at home. Americans deserve to know why we’re still fighting and what the plan is to end it.

formerpreznez.bsky.social is running for Congress because working families in Arizona deserve someone who actually fights for them, not someone who takes their money and hands it to billionaires. That's the choice in this race, and I'm choosing Jonathan.

Gas and diesel prices are up because Trump started a war and didn't care about what it would cost us at home. @chrispappasnh.bsky.social and I are pushing to suspend the federal gas and diesel taxes to give families a break. Americans shouldn't have to pay for Trump’s mistakes.

Being a NASA astronaut was a dream come true for me, so I’m honored to be inducted into the International Space Hall of Fame today alongside Katherine Johnson, Dee O’Hara, Michel Mayor, and the Mercury 13. Oh, and my brother @stationcdrkelly.bsky.social.

More corruption from the most corrupt person in the history of the US government. Dinner for his top meme coin investors apparently featuring three “legends.” Let me guess - Kid Rock, a MAGA golfer, and a rando billionaire.

Prices are already too high and now companies are using your personal data to squeeze every extra dollar they can out of you. It's wrong and it's Washington's job to stop it.

Americans are getting slammed by higher gas and diesel prices because of Trump’s war, and families need some relief. @chrispappasnh.bsky.social and I are fighting to suspend the gas and diesel taxes to lower costs and put money back in your pocket.

AI is reshaping our economy, and we need to make sure working people benefit from it too. My AI Horizon Fund would require the companies gaining the most from this technology to invest in American workers so you aren't left behind. tinyurl.com/mtkwdf3n

You shouldn't need a second job just to cover rent and groceries. You shouldn't have to skip a doctor's visit because you got kicked off your insurance. Families are working harder than ever and still falling behind. I'm fighting to change that.

Last year’s fires and the recent flooding at the Grand Canyon have been hard on local businesses that rely on tourism. If you’re looking to support those communities, think about planning a visit soon. It’s one of the most special places in the world.

Let's face it, Trump's surrounded by yes men who are afraid to speak truth to power. It's plagued his whole cabinet. And it’s the American people paying the price of his failed leadership.

Katie Hobbs has never been afraid of a fight. She's stood up to big corporations and put Arizona families first every time. That's exactly the kind of leader we need for four more years.

Trump dragged us into a war with Iran with no idea what he was doing. We deserve answers about why he got us in this mess, but this Administration has none to give.

It was clear from the beginning that the situation on the USS Lincoln needed to be taken seriously. Instead of being honest about it and supporting our servicemembers, Trump and Hegseth denied and minimized what was happening. Failed leadership.

Election Day is 6 weeks away, and leaders across the country are stepping up to flip key districts. These candidates are running to lower costs, take on the corruption in Washington, and fight for working families. I’m proud to endorse them.

While regular families count every dollar at the grocery store, billionaires are paying lower tax rates than the people ringing them up. Politicians made that choice. They work for the wealthy instead of you. I want to change who Washington works for.

Captain Mark Kelly @captmarkkelly.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Trump promised lower costs. Instead, diesel just hit an all-time high because of his war with Iran, and families are paying hundreds more this year on groceries and everything else. Arizonans shouldn't have to foot the bill for his reckless decisions.

Trump doesn't care about rising gas prices, because it doesn’t affect him or his rich friends. But for families trying to afford rent and groceries, it's everything.

Today is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day. My great grandmother came from Poland with nothing but the hope of a better life. I still have her citizenship papers. That's the story of so many American families. We’ve always been a country of immigrants. No one can change that.

Folks in Georgia are lucky to have a fighter like @ossoff.bsky.social who is standing up to this Administration’s corruption and fighting to lower costs for families. And after talking to so many of them, I know they’ll do everything they can to re-elect him and help us take back the Senate.

Captain Mark Kelly @captmarkkelly.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Trump still can’t explain what this war is for. All he's delivered is higher gas and grocery prices. Our servicemembers and the American people deserve better.

Captain Mark Kelly @captmarkkelly.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Our economy should reward the people who actually keep it running, but the gap between the highest earners and working Arizonans keeps getting wider. People shouldn’t have to fall further behind while their hard work makes someone else rich.

50 days until Election Day. Every seat, every ballot, every vote matters this year. Fixing what Trump has broken won’t happen by itself. If you’ve been waiting for the time to get involved, it’s now.

Trump promised to lower energy costs, but Arizona families are stuck paying record-high prices at the pump as his Iran war drives up oil costs. American families shouldn't have to stretch every last dollar just to fill their tanks.

On a flight the other day, someone left me a note sharing how hard it is for young people right now. So many of them are frustrated because they can’t even imagine a future where they can afford a home or a family. This has to change.

Captain Mark Kelly @captmarkkelly.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Your hard work still pays off, it’s just paying off for someone else. Billionaires and big corporations are doing better than ever, while working Americans are only scraping by. Turning this country around starts with putting workers first.

Congratulations to my friend, Chris Pappas. New Hampshire families have always been able to count on Chris, and that's why they're going to make him their next Senator this November.

Captain Mark Kelly @captmarkkelly.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Last week, it wasn't even a "war" according to Trump. Before that, he's said dozens of times that Iran was totally defeated already. Trump is making it all up as he goes because he has no idea what he's doing — and it's raising your costs and making our country less safe.

We can't flip the Senate without defending this seat in New Hampshire, so it was great to see so many folks out on a Sunday to hit the doors for my friend @chrispappasnh.bsky.social. Granite Staters deserve a fighter like Chris in the Senate, who's been working nonstop to lower costs.

This Labor Day, Arizonans are facing record high gas prices. It’s no mystery why it costs so much. Trump started a war with Iran with zero plan and no way out. American families are paying for his mistakes at the pump, in the grocery store, and just about everywhere else.

Captain Mark Kelly @captmarkkelly.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

Arizona families are still paying too much for groceries, gas, and housing. Making life more affordable should be priority #1 in Washington, but for most, it’s just a talking point. I’m fighting to put money back in working families’ pockets — not millionaires.

Gas prices in Arizona are higher than the national average. That’s why I’ve been fighting to suspend the federal gas tax to give families some relief, but what we really need is an end to Trump’s war that’s been jacking up prices across the board.
