The midterms are being flooded with dark money & Trump is doing everything he can to suppress the vote. But remember — WE THE PEOPLE outnumber Trump and his billionaire backers. Keep phoning. Keep canvassing. Keep getting out the vote for candidates on the side of working people. It is essential.

Trump spends his days padding his pockets, obsessing over plans to build monuments to himself, sleeping in meetings, and occasionally sending out fake announcements about illegal rebates. No wonder gas is heading to $5 a gallon.

One morning in June, three paralyzed military veterans in wheelchairs from rural Pennsylvania arrived at the office of Sen. John Fetterman for a long-awaited meeting to discuss legislation that would improve their care.
Fetterman's staff greeted them with bad news:
The Pennsylvania Democrat had to cancel. He'd told his staff he may have eaten something bad and wasn't feeling well, according to people familiar with the matter.
Less than an hour after his staffers met with the veterans in his place, Fetterman walked into his office, showing no signs of illness. He had an appointment he didn't want to miss, he told staff: an interview on Fox News to discuss Israel and the war in Iran.

With midterm elections looming, the Republican-led House was scheduled to work for three more weeks before November. On Thursday, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) cut that back to one, canceling planned votes in September.
washingtonpost.com
GOP-led House scraps two weeks of work ahead of midterms
The move gives candidates more time to sell themselves to voters. It means little, if any, legislation is likely to pass Congress before November.

Just 3 weeks ago, JD Vance tried to use the Marine Two helicopter to send his 9-year-old son to a golf lesson. The helicopter costs between $16K-$25K per hour to operate and is paid for by American taxpayers. He has also used it for multiple recent “house hunting” trips in the DC suburbs.
