I urge you to vote No on this ballot initiative.

We should be looking for ways to improve our voting outcomes, not further limiting choice. There is also no reason to amend the state constitution for something that is already both state and federal law.

This Missouri ballot question would ban ranked-choice voting in the state. What to know https://t.co/zHOui32pFv

Crime is down, not up - and violent crime and murder are below where they were in 2020, Trump's last year in office.

Preliminary FBI data found a 6% decline in violent crime in 2023 and 15% in the first quarter of 2024. It's preliminary, yes, but the direction is clear.

The Trump campaign itself has so far been able to provide zero evidence for his claims that foreign countries are emptying mental institutions or "insane asylums" to send people here as migrants.

Trump says that he's going to pay down the debt, but his net 10 year additions to the debt far outpace Biden's.

There has been less than 4% unemployment for the longest period of our lifetimes under the Biden administration.

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

Immigrants are not stealing American jobs — there are currently more jobs than workers in the US.

Trump’s claim that we have the "worst inflation we've ever had" is nowhere near correct. We’re at 3%; the record is 23.7% (in 1920). https://t.co/YKUVtrfShT

Trump could fairly say there was a four-decade high in June 2022, when it was 9.1%, but that wasn't worst ever either.

[Daniel Dale @ddale8]

Trump’s claim that he handed Biden a world at peace is abject nonsense. What can you even say. One research institution counted active armed conflicts in 51 nation-states in 2020 and then in 51 nation-states again in 2021.

[Secretary Pete Buttigieg @SecretaryPete]

Congresswoman, in what way do you believe that your support helped this project? We chose it because it's a good project, and funded it using President Biden's infrastructure package, which you voted against.

[Daniel Dale @ddale8]

Trump pledged to “drill baby drill” and therefore achieve a big decline in prices. Can’t fact-check a prediction, but some context: the US under Biden is now producing more crude oil than any country in world history has ever produced. https://t.co/XuKEykQMdd

Trump’s tax cut was not the biggest in history, either in percentage of GDP or real dollars. Details here. https://t.co/FXjJ3HoLTv

Wow. They spelled fallen trump rally-goer Corey Comperatore’s name wrong.

[Daniel Dale @ddale8]

It's not true that before Right to Try, people had to go abroad for emergency experimental medication or go die. Trump's own FDA commissioner testified to Congress that the FDA approved 99% of emergency requests under its own program, usually within days.

@KCTV5 I want to like this, but I can't. Heartland won't play here. Sporting Fields + Athletics won't rent practice space to non-Sporting-affiliated club teams. I was so excited for this facility, but no longer.
