Oof.

Bad day in the press for @JDVance1

#OHSen

“Like countless outsiders before him, Vance has exploited and misrepresented our region without a thought for the people or the land left behind.”
independent.co.uk/voices/jd-vanc… “Vance's fraudulence is discerned in the fact that while he celebrates Catholicism as a vehicle for his sociocultural vision, he departs from the teaching of the church on a host of issues, from immigration to labor rights to climate change.”ncronline.org/opinion/ncr-vo…

@gal_suburban @justinhorowitz_ @natedog155 @j2dumfounded @DempseyTwo @LeaLovesUSA @satirehat @arapaho415 @Lawrence @NYTnickc @AP_Politics @Reuters Exactly.

I’m in full panic right now—it’s so clear by Trump and Carlson’s rhetorical shifts that they’ve moved into the next stage of this version of Stop the Steal.

I’m incandescently furious that the people nationally who should protect us from bad actors are so clueless. @gal_suburban @justinhorowitz_ @natedog155 @j2dumfounded @DempseyTwo @LeaLovesUSA @satirehat @arapaho415 @Lawrence @NYTnickc @AP_Politics @Reuters If we learned anything from J6, it’s surely that these people signal.

Monumentally bad judgement by @FrankLaRose campaigning for GQP candidates—even door knocking!

The #OHSen race will be close. Will it be another Ken Blackwell 2004 show?

OHIO: keep your eyes on Secretary of State LaRose. He’s thrown “appearance of fairness” out the window.
1/ LaRose in the thick of it at last week’s Trump Q rally in Youngstown.

Cheering on @JDVance1

I ask: if #OHSen results are tight, how can LaRose have any credibility?

And: does LaRose support JD and Trump’s 2020 election denial?

@SteveSchmidtSES THANK YOU—many of us try to get this point thru to @potus and D’s at national level but—crickets.

I sincerely hope you and other pro dems lead the way on pushing back. You’ll get a lot of support.

This is from just a few days ago>

Think about what that means. @SteveSchmidtSES @POTUS Trump’s sociopathy and utter disregard for any law, norm, convention, or restriction, has empowered millions of people, from candidates like this to people screaming about masks.

The Big Lie’s propaganda: Trump cultists call upon law enforcement to “go rogue” and investigate an election that ended 1.5 years ago.

Notably, Trump- pardoned felons are deeply involved in this project. 🧵 Dinesh D’Souza, prosecuted for campaign finance law violations, lying to federal investigators and disregard for the judicial process, produced a “movie” about election fraud allegations.

Serious ?, I hope someone can answer:

How can pro-dem coalition get Dems Kicking Ass onto some kind of platform/algorithm so we get about 12-20 of these a day to share?

@MeidasTouch @ProjectLincoln @reedgalen @TheRickWilson @JoeTrippi @donwinslow @JoinTheUnionUS Here’s another one.

Personally I don’t GAF if they’re socialist, libertarian, conservative, rural, urban.

If they’re connecting, setting the record straight, pumping facts into the public square—great.

🧵

The GOP was primed with plenty of ammo against forgiving student loans.

Why?

What are they scared of?

They KNOW this is kryptonite. It will transform the electorate.

It’s their death knell.

1/ dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1… They know it would unleash relief and ignite creativity.

It would give America a jolt of optimism we haven’t experienced since JFK.

Many of us have never felt that USA man-on-the-moon energy.

Instead we were held back by the Challenger explosion and the gravity of greed.
