OH MY GOSH!
I don’t know what to say.
President Trump just called for the SAVE America Act to be attached to budget reconciliation 3.0.
Reconciliation packages only require a simple majority in the Senate.
This means that we could secure our elections with 51 votes.
Spencer Pratt (@spencerpratt) needs to tell his voters to check their ballot status and file a complaint if it hasn't been received yet.
MANY people who voted for Spencer are finding out their ballots haven't been received.

🚨 Mark Cuban endorsed Kamala Harris in October 2024..
campaigned for her.. appeared on her trail.. was one of her most visible surrogates..
18 months later he's standing at the White House next to Trump.. laughing on camera..
and here's the consequence math nobody is running..
Cuban built Cost Plus Drugs in 2022 to cut out the middlemen on generic prices.. Trump built TrumpRX to do the same thing for uninsured Americans.. the two platforms just merged into the same stage..
that means every uninsured family paying full price for fertility drugs or GLP-1s just got access to both distribution networks at once..
not because Cuban changed his politics.. because Trump didn't care that he hadn't..
the reporter tried to make it awkward.. "he endorsed Kamala Harris back in 2024"..
Trump: "Well, he made a mistake!"
Cuban: 🤣🤣🤣
think about what that means..
the fastest way to lower your drug bill wasn't a Senate vote.. it was two guys who disagreed on everything except the one thing that matters to your pharmacy receipt..
Trump has done this before.. First Step Act.. Abraham Accords.. every room where a former opponent showed up willing to deal..
the grudge was never the point.. the deal was..
and your prescription just got cheaper because of it.
I'll share more details shortly so turn on notifications, this is VERY important.
While Karen Bass is worried about getting meth-heads new grills, the LAFD has 3 dozen LESS firefighters than we had when the Palisades Fire hit. Folks, you need to vote like your life depends on it, because it does.
Sidney Powell was sentenced to 6 yrs Probation $6K fine & $2,700 in restitution & had to apologize
for challenging the results
Fulton County admits 315K votes had NO poll worker sig's
Now she gets her money back, they have to rescind the probation & be forced to apologize her
Election worker testifies that every single Military Ballot was for Joe Biden, not even straight party ballots, just Joe Biden at the top, and not one single Trump ballot, with sticky notes attached with directions to backdate the ballots from 10/4 to 10/2 during the 2020 election.
The same stacks of ballots were witnessed being run through the machines multiple times, ballots were being duplicated, signatures did not match, whatsoever, and logs were wiped.
It's always the same patterns, the same fraud. The 2020 election was stolen.
Whoever Spencer Pratt has putting together his commercials, every Republican running for office in the midterms needs to hire them today!
Here's another banger!👏
Meet Maurice Sholas. He’s a children’s doctor at @OchsnerHealth. He ranted against White people and called them the “mayonnaise caucus.” He also threatened Louisiana legislators that he will “disrupt the system.”
Is that a call to violence?
Would you feel comfortable putting your kid’s life in his hands?
@ScottPresler It doesn’t matter what it is with spineless Republicans with their hands out and eyes closed. This country is fucked and this is proof. Democrats one big tonight in their destructive ways once again.
Barack Obama clapping like a seal for Virginia Democrats rigging the map to steal 4 more House seats.
“Standing up for our democracy” = gerrymandering harder than anyone while pretending Republicans are the threat.
The same guy who spent 8 years weaponizing every institution against his opponents now lectures us about fairness.
Sit down, Barry. Your party’s map-rigging is why nobody trusts “democracy” anymore.
