The gas station in the video is less than par in quality gas. Mainstay gas stations are $5-$6 per gallon across the country, people. If you want to go backwards put it in 'R'. If you want to go forward for change, put it in 'D'.

To flip the Senate, Democrats need to pick up 4 seats. 5 if you count the Fetterman problem. This can’t be emphasized enough: Michigan is a must-protect seat. Lose it, and we’d need to flip another seat just to make up the loss.

Is Stephen Miller a Nazi? Ask his Jewish family. Miller's isn’t just evil; he’s the evil all evil aspires to be. He’s so dark he turns Satan green with envy.
Vanity Fair called Stephen Miller “one of the most evil people to have worked for Donald Trump.”

Big U.S. restaurant chains don't get linked to foodborne illness outbreaks often, but the number of meals they serve causes a lot of concern when contamination of some kind sickens customers.
