It's that time of the year again...

🚨 The first fundraising thread of 2023 🚨

#CASen: Rep. Katie Porter (D-47) announced raising $4.5 million this quarter.

This has the potential to be the most expensive Senate race of all time
#AZSen: Politico scoops that Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I) will report "more than" $9.9 million cash on hand entering April. Normally, candidates announce what they raise, not what they have on hand, so this was a bit different
#AZSen: Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-03) announced raising $3.7 million in Q1 2023. No cash on hand number provided. Comes after Sinema camp says they're entering April with $9.9 million cash on hand

NEW from me @TheSpectator:

I’m at today’s long awaited @tiktok_us hearing, where the Communist spyware CEO is going to gaslight America

He’s now on on Cap Hill with a Socialist Congressman and a Biden-tied Mao lover's firm in his pockets

TikTok’s CEO is gearing up for a grilling in Congress, but he’s got some new, powerful allies in his corner: a political consulting firm whose founder lavished praise on Mao Zedong and is now one of Biden’s top aides — and a socialist congressman who thespectator.com/topic/tiktok-f…twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Shou Zi Chew, the company’s CEO, is at @HouseCommerce, where Republicans are planning to press him on the national security concerns posed by the video app’s parent company ByteDance’s ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

🧵Did you know that The Star Spangled Banner has a 3rd verse? In the 3rd verse, Francis Scott Key had a message for the enslaved who had dared to fight for freedom—we will pursue you to get revenge…

It’s not surprising that the Missouri state Senator is so emotional…
The third verse:

“No refuge could save the hireling and slave from the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave. And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
“Key’s message to the enslaved fighting for freedom was unmistakable—we will hunt you down & the search will leave you in terror because, when we find you, your next stop is the gloom of the grave.”

Shocking that MO state Senator Nick Schroer has such huge feelings right now.

I’m grateful that my father never traveled to the state Capitol to put on public record that he thought I was less of an athlete than my male counterparts. Just love, support, and my biggest cheering section. That’s what he gave me. #ProtectTransKids #MoLeg #MoSen
A few things: these bills do not force boys into girls sports, biblical values have no place in our laws, Jesus didn’t mention what team kids can play on, a transgender child is not a mental illness, putting hate, fear, and lack of knowledge makes for terrible policy.
Deadnaming a transgender woman to prove that you are supportive of trans people isn’t the win you think it is. Neither is using the wrong pronoun.

Advocating for an embryo/fetus while ignoring children who are living, breathing beings right in front of you is easy, lazy & performative.

Kids deserve safety, quality education, healthcare, warm meals, a roof over their head. That’s the real work. That’s #ProLife #MoLeg
Allowing Agape’ Boarding School to remain in operation after decades of physical, emotional, and sexual child abuse is not pro-life. #MoLeg news-leader.com/story/news/loc…
Legalizing unfettered access to guns while Missouri children are slaughtered in their classrooms, their bedrooms, and on the sidewalk is not pro-life. #MoLeg

All done! And I've got a link the a thread that explains the amendments in a quick and concise manner, and that same person basically finished up the judges for me. I'm going to do a little more looking, but based on what he said on the amendments, I believe his judgment.
Update: Found this on judge Julia Pusateri Lasater that makes me inclined to vote NO:

stlrecord.com/stories/628024…
Amanda B. McNelley:

Inclined to vote YES. Family law experience seems good to me. She also was one of two people who made it possible to get orders of protection online during the pandemic.

#moleg #scomo #mosen

Judge Thomas C. Clark

Please vote to NOT retain

Judge John P. Torbitzky.

Please vote TO retain.

Sixteen years ago, I was a relatively new political reporter at the @columbiatribune. In an election season that included a nationally watched #MOSEN contest, there was one race I requested to cover: The 18th District Senate race between Wes Shoemyer and Bob Behnen.
The race was the most competitive legislative race in Missouri. Democrats were trying to bring a group of northeastern Missouri counties back into their fold after GOP started to make gains there in the early 2000s.
Shoemyer ended up winning every county except Marion, Putnam and Adair. He was helped by the fact that 2006 was a terrible year for the GOP (and, perhaps, that he was a farmer and his opponent was genealogist).

Missouri’s weak, almost nonexistent, gun laws made it possible for this 19-y/o gunman to purchase an AR-15 from an unlicensed dealer, where background checks aren’t required. Local law enforcement will be sued for $50k if they assist federal agents in enforcing these BGD ✅s.
The gunman stockpiled 600+ rounds of ammunition, had 7 magazines on a chest strap, 8 magazines in a bag, and strategically placed ammunition all around the school building. #MoLeg @MomsDemand ImageImageImage
This was preventable. But Missouri is ruled by a cowardly supermajority Republican party who sits back, cowered behind their desks, passing laws that flood our streets with guns and disenfranchise urban communities at every step. #MoLeg #MoSen @MomsDemand

Hey MO GOP-if you TRULY appreciated law enforcement’s response to yesterday’s school shooting, you’d stop sending them into situations where they’re outgunned by a 19 y/o who has access to these guns because of your legislation. You don’t back the blue. Cut the shit. @MomsDemand Image
“Missouri not only has none of the foundational gun violence prevention laws, but indeed the state repealed an 80-year-old permit to purchase—leading to an increase in gun homicide of up to 27%.” #MoLeg #MoSen @MomsDemand
everytownresearch.org/rankings/state…
My friend’s partner, my uncle, 2 of my cousins, my neighbor, my former gymnast, & my friend’s son are all in law enforcement. If you’re going to force them into buildings where they’re outgunned while you cower under your desk, you need to take down that stupid blue line flag.

@Eric_Schmitt @NRSC 1/ Kennen Sie schon das #Telekolleg? Damals schien Fernsehen minder schräg. 📺 Ja, ohne Verblendung ging Bildung auf Sendung. Heutzutage kann Bildung erregen nur kleinere Einschaltquoten … die Politiker sind Chaoten. 📸 @jeffroe 🍻

@Eric_Schmitt @NRSC @jeffroe 2/ Keinen Unterhaltungswert verliert diese Sendung, neu interpretiert. Versicherungswitze sind eigentlich spitze denn die Handlung ist mit Schmitt liiert. Die Grillkunst wurde angepriesen, der Anspruch aber abgewiesen. 🍻 @EricTrump

Good morning to everyone except the treasonous seditionists, coup-plotters, domestic terrorists, and fascists.

Did you know that Missouri AG @Eric_Schmitt’s loyalty to Trump means he supports 5 out of 5 of these things??

That’s not propaganda— here are the receipts:

🧵 /1 Image
@AGEricSchmitt has pledged total loyalty to Trump and the #MAGA agenda, and has even intervened in his legal defense to show his unwavering support of Trump to the judges overseeing the prosecutions of his cases.

And Trump is guilty of all 5 offenses.

Let’s take a look /2
TREASON: Donald Trump attempted to overthrow the government, and gave aid and comfort to domestic enemies who participated on #Jan6.

Before, during, and after Jan 6, Trump conspired to coordinate with the insurrectionists and planners. /3

Eric Schmitt Is the Clear Front Runner in Missouri’s U.S. Senate Race

slu.edu/research/resea… #MOSen
“Missouri’s Attorney General, Republican Eric Schmitt, appears to be the clear frontrunner in Missouri’s U.S. Senate race, according to our August 2022 SLU/YouGov Poll.”
“Given the political climate in Missouri, it seems that Schmitt would have a hard time losing.”

@Eric_Schmitt @TeamCavuto @DougBeck562 @Flip_MO_Blue The AG to a #steakfry stag went. Many reckon $10,000 he spent his arguments and pleas to translate to Chinese. Of all people this litigious gent sees himself for Blunt’s seat qualified. About RAGA robocalls Schmitt lied. @sbarrett01

@Eric_Schmitt @TeamCavuto @DougBeck562 @Flip_MO_Blue @sbarrett01 The AG to a #steakfry went stag to impersonate knowledge of ag for his upcoming race, Blunt’s vacant seat to chase. His hypocrisy makes voters gag, especially folks who are rural: #frivolouslawsuits are his cure-all. @piper4missouri

What my March thread didn't get into was that Noble didn't pay the last paycheck to employees and that they hadn't paid health insurance premiums of their employees. 3/
