My dad taught me everything I know about hard work. Pete Ricketts’s dad handed him a life he’s never had to work for. It's time we get a Senator with some real Nebraskan values. Chip in $5 to send Ricketts back to Chicago: secure.anedot.com/osborn-for-s...

Pete Ricketts talked about his "accomplishments" on CNN today. Pretty terrible list...

It shouldn't be this hard. This isn't the America I grew up believing in. But on November 3rd, we have the opportunity to take our country back.

Our so-called "leaders" need to push back against data centers and Al companies. Congress shouldn't go home until we get an Al safety bill.

It was an honor to attend the Lincoln Branch NAACP Freedom Fund Banquet this weekend. It was great to see old friends and meet so many wonderful new ones. I’m proud to celebrate the leaders committed to creating a better future for all. Truly a special night.

So why does Ricketts continue to rubber-stamp policies that raise everyday costs? Why is he making it harder for Nebraskans to get by?

Ricketts has NOT publicly supported Right To Repair legislation. Do you think it has anything to do with the BOATLOADS of cash John Deere dumps into his bank account?

Ever heard of Peter Thiel? He helped start PayPal and Palantir, a data company that builds surveillance tools to spy on you. He's one of the most powerful men in Silicon Valley. He’s also dumping millions into Nebraska to help Pete Ricketts.

Pete Ricketts has taken hundreds of thousands from AI dark money groups, completely ignoring Nebraskans’ concerns. We can’t let Big Tech companies break ground on data centers without talking to community members first. We need real community agreements before any construction begins.

Ricketts is spending millions to buy this election, but Nebraska can’t be bought. Let’s win this election and show the whole country we’re not for sale: secure.anedot.com/osborn-for-s...

Representing Nebraskans starts with showing up. Not just during election season, but every day. We have to listen to people and understand why they’re struggling. We have to form real connections to know what needs to be changed. That’s how I believe politics should work.

I was 17 when I joined the Navy. Back then, serving my country meant putting on a uniform. Now it means fighting to protect the community that raised me. Advocating for the workers I punched a clock with. And supporting the veterans I served alongside. www.military.com/exclusive-na...

Fresh off the grill! I'm calling out the chicken politicians in Washington, cutting the pork out of federal spending, and reminding folks that real independence is RARE. Washington’s been feeding you baloney for years. It’s time we get a seat at the table: secure.anedot.com/osborn-for-s...

Teachers shouldn’t have to buy classroom supplies from their own paychecks. Rural hospitals shouldn’t have to shut down because billionaires want another tax cut. We aren’t asking for special treatment. We’re asking for a fair shake.

Today I met with Epstein survivors in Omaha and listened to their stories. The Epstein Book Mobile is a survivor-led traveling exhibit that carries every page of the Epstein files that's been made public so far.

If tech companies want to build data centers, there needs to be a CLEAR benefit to the community where they are built.

The Ag Secretary admitted the decision to bring in more foreign beef was a “gut punch” to American ranchers. So why are we doing it? We should be rebuilding Nebraskan cattle herds and putting American beef on American tables. www.1011now.com/2026/09/03/a...

Targeted tariffs can be a great tool for protecting American workers, but blanket tariffs raise everyday costs for small businesses and families like mine.

It’s been 25 years since the horrific attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, and the heroic actions of the passengers of Flight 93. We can never forget the innocent lives lost and the bravery so many showed on that day.

Amazon just announced that it's partnering with OpenAI to bring ads to ChatGPT. This is exactly why we need guardrails on AI and the Big Tech companies. OpenAI just hired Chuck Schumer's daughter to make sure he'd let them get away with this. I won't. www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/09/...

It was a great day to honor Nebraska workers at Schuyler’s Labor Day parade. Hard working Nebraskans are the backbone of our state. Thank you for all you do.
