For having so much IQ, Vivek sure is dumb. That ad is one of the worst things I’ve ever seen; It’s what’s wrong with American politics. I think Ohio has taken notice.

Russian disinformation campaign and Elon Musk going after Talarico.

That’s all you need to know when deciding who to vote for:

Trump just gave the ultimate gift to financial criminals. On Episode 34 of @steadystate2025's Daily Swamp, we expose how gutting FinCEN transparency rules opens the floodgates for cartels, kleptocrats, and illicit shell companies.

Just got this from some Trump PAC email😂

[Terry Virts @AstroTerry]

Trump's foreign policy is to speak loudly and carry a small stick.

[Terry Virts @AstroTerry]

This is the most consequential election in generations, and we have a great chance to end 30+ years of single-party rule in the great state of Texas.

Reach254 is a great way to reach out to your friends & family to encourage them to vote.

Is this all you get for a few hundred million dollars in Super PAC contributions?

I’ve had the privilege of seeing Texas from orbit, and it’s worth fighting for. Early voting is on, and I’m joining Texas Together’s Reach 254 effort to support James Talarico, Gina Hinojosa, Vikki Goodwin, and you can too👇

This girl and her mother were recently killed in Kharkiv.

Trump says Russia “has been fine on Ukraine.”
Witkoff says Putin is a humanitarian.

A vote for Republicans is a vote for this evil.

[POLITICOEurope @POLITICOEurope]

Czech President Petr Pavel says a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine was “quite close” – until Donald Trump lifted sanctions on Russian diesel.

CNN montage of Trump talking about other men

[Acyn @Acyn]

Trump: We were in the midst of negotiating and a lot of stupid people said why aren’t you putting Russian sanctions—

Collins: But you said you didn’t give anything for his release

Trump: If I didn’t do that, you wouldn’t have him coming back.

Collins: So you did give something.

Trump: You don’t know anything. You’re fake news CNN.

Collins: You’re saying you lifted the sanctions in exchange for his release?

Trump: You don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re a low IQ person. You’re a dummy.

[Terry Virts @AstroTerry]

I voted! Get out and vote if you haven't yet- the stakes are literally the survival of our Republic as we know it.

[Terry Virts @AstroTerry]

If you haven't seen this- please check it out- and share with any Texas friends you might have. We need to make sure Ken Paxton gets crushed in this election. There's a reason Elon and the other billionaires are spending hundreds of millions to get him elected.

[Terry Virts @AstroTerry]

Think Todd Blanche is bad?

Wait until you meet Ken Paxton. On this episode of @steadystate2025's Daily Swamp, we discuss Trump’s Senate pick partying in Dubai with indicted fugitives and taking $200K from an accused fraudster.

BREAKING: George W. Bush's brother Neil just dropped a BOMB on MAGA by proudly announcing that he voted for James Talarico in the Texas Senate race.

This just gave Republicans a flashing green light to vote blue...

"I have never posted a political message on Facebook not wanting to offend friends whose views may be very different than mine. I'm breaking that tradition because I voted early today, and I voted for James Talarico for the United States Senate," Bush, the child of the late President George H.W. Bush wrote on Facebook.

"My vote was motivated by two things: deep concern about Ken Paxton's record and genuine admiration for the character and principles I see in James Talarico," he continued.

"I have been deeply troubled by Paxton's conduct as Texas Attorney General, particularly his decision to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election in other states in an effort to help Donald Trump remain in power. I believe that effort was an affront to our democratic institutions and the peaceful transfer of power. My concerns about his judgment and conduct are hardly mine alone. He was impeached by the Republican-controlled Texas House, although subsequently acquitted by the Texas Senate."

"More broadly, I believe Donald Trump and those who have enabled him have done enormous damage to the Republican Party. I worry about a political culture in which loyalty to an individual takes precedence over loyalty to principle, and where those who hold power begin to believe they are no longer accountable."

"But my vote today was about much more than opposition to Ken Paxton."

"I've never met James Talarico, but I have been enormously impressed by the way he approaches complicated and controversial issues. He speaks with respect, seeks common ground, and seems genuinely interested in bringing people together rather than driving them apart. His faith appears to be a deeply rooted source of humility, compassion, and conviction rather than a political weapon."

I see in him the qualities I admire most in public servants: integrity, civility, humility, and a willingness to listen to those with whom he disagrees. My impression is that he is a principled, pragmatic leader who understands that public office is a responsibility to serve, not an entitlement to power."

"I have been a Republican for most of my life, and I still believe deeply in many traditional Republican principles. But character matters more than party affiliation. Our democracy depends on leaders who respect our institutions, tell the truth, accept accountability, and seek to unite rather than divide."

"Today, I voted against a style of politics that I believe has damaged our country. More importantly, I voted for the kind of character and leadership I hope will help heal it," he concluded.

Bravo, Mr. Bush! We commend you for speaking out boldly during these crucial midterm elections. Ken Paxton is a stone-cold crook who was impeached for bribery by his own party as state attorney general. He has zero interest in serving the people of Texas if he wins and will instead work to line his own pockets, accumulate personal power, and rubber-stamp Trump's destructive agenda.

Meanwhile, James Talarico is a devout Christian who is committed to fighting for better healthcare, an end to pointless wars, livable wages, more housing construction to restore the American Dream, and banning Congressional stock trading.

The Bush family still wields a great deal of influence in Texas, so this announcement is sure to cause political shockwaves. If you're a Republican who genuinely loves this country, it's time to cross the aisle and vote for James Talarico.

Please ❤️ and share to thank Neil Bush!

Witkoff salutes Putin as a humanitarian.

The entire GOP owns 100% of this.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Steve Witkoff to Putin:

You talk so much about my president, President Trump, being a humanitarian.

You are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that, I commend you, and I thank you again.
