Beyond the fact that it’s incredibly illegal and corrupt to use taxpayer dollars to run political ads on television, there’s another problem with re-running old ads like this: the messaging only reminds everyone what a fraud you are.
Black-and-white image of Donald Trump standing in a hallway from a recent ad he ran on TV with taxpayer funds. White subtitle text on a black bar at the bottom displays what Trump’s voiceover says in the ad: “we will expel the warmongers from our government.”

A familiar story for anyone who follows @volts.wtf. “The Chronicle spoke to more than half a dozen grid experts…to try to understand why Texas’s notoriously unreliable grid had a remarkably reliable summer. The answer was unanimous: solar panels and batteries.”

Texas shattered energy demand records this summer. Here's why the grid held up.
Texas repeatedly broke electricity demand records this summer, but ERCOT avoided emergencies as booming solar and battery capacity helped keep the grid stable.

Truly incredible how Trump has destroyed every single Republican talking point just in time for the midterms
Screenshot of an X post from the verified “Senate Republicans” account, @SenateGOP. The post reads: “Democrat socialists love to promise free stuff. But they never mention who pays for it.” Beneath the post is an X Community Note labeled “Readers added context.” The note states: “President Donald Trump has proposed several direct cash payouts and rebates funded by tariffs or budget cuts. None were provided.” It lists links from WBAL-TV, ABC7 Chicago, YouTube, and The New York Times as sources. At the bottom of the screenshot, the post is timestamped 4:06 PM on September 23, 2026, and shows 352,000 views.
