This is Klan-rally rhetoric.
Trump: "Somalia -- 98% of the people here now from Somalia don't work. They don't have to work because they steal so much. They all have a Mercedes Benz. Low IQ and they live better than you do."

The Heritage Foundation adviser who recruited 12 bishops to pray over Trump in the Oval Office claimed a Ph.D. from an Italian university that doesn’t grant doctorates. His listed bachelor’s school is a high school. A Vatican official called the meeting an insult to Pope Leo XIV. thelettersfromleo.com/p/heri…

Fox News is putting Nicki Minaj up telling people to vote red. Let’s break that down. Can Nicki Minaj vote? No. She’s not a U.S. citizen. Can Nicki Minaj’s husband vote? No, he’s a registered sex offender. Can Nicki Minaj’s brother vote? No, he’s serving 25 years to life for child sexual assault. She seems like the perfect spokesperson for MAGA republicans.

Florida Surgeon General says the state will end vaccine requirements for kids in school and wants to end ALL mandates: “Who am I to tell you what to put in your body? It’s a gift from God.” Fact-check: Vaccines have saved millions of lives. (2026)

"Our endorsement of Acton rests on more than Ramaswamy’s failure to meet a basic standard of decency. She has earned consideration on her own record, her preparation and her commitment to the people she seeks to serve." Cleveland Plain Dealer reverses their decision to stay neutral and endorses @amyactonoh — a true leader and public servant. cleveland.com/open/2026/10/w…

Dr. Richard Pan vs. Kevin Kiley: Hunger.  Kevin Kiley voted to slash funding for food assistance, leaving over one million children without food.  I’ve always fought to make sure children and families can put food on the table.

After being cruelly used by the Ramaswami campaign, Amy Acton’s clearly distressed mother has reportedly been living with her cats in her car in a church parking lot in Pennsylvania. Did the Ramaswami campaign make any effort to improve the plight of this elderly woman they so ruthlessly exploited?

Multiple Ohio business owners have abruptly canceled campaign events with Vivek Ramaswamy. This comes after Ohio's Republican governor urged Ramaswamy to take down his attack ad featuring Dr. Amy Acton's estranged mother.

I guess you forgot my X handle. Well here it is… remember the time you offered me thoughts and prayers for the CDC shooting? I rejected them because YOUR disinformation was likely partially responsible. How about the time you wrote terms of reference for ACIP that silenced CDC scientists claiming they were biased? Let the people know… do you think HPV causes cancer? Share your scientific process while you were on ACIP. Which domains of evidence did you consider before your committee acted. Did you grade the papers, consider bias and methods. Oh that’s right….You didn’t. Thoughts and prayers, Retsef. Thoughts and prayers back to you. Tag me next time. ❤️
Unlike what @washingtonpost & @bylenasun attempt to promote Demetre Daskalakis is NOT a ‘warrior’ of public health & science but part of the cult that tarnished any trust in public health! The truth is that he actively tried to sabotage the scientific work of ACIP & the COVID Immunization Workgroup! He worked hard to block discussions on any safety & efficacy issue related to potential contaminants in the COVID vaccines, their prolonged immunological effects (IgG4 class switch), the impact of documented frame shifting (production of unintended antigens) and prolonged vaccine injuries. We should all be thankful that is not anymore in position of power!

and likely paid her to tape the ad
It’s really peak @VivekGRamaswamy. Not only does he become a cheerleader for child rape to save his dying campaign. He tracked down an 82 yr old homeless woman living in a car in a church parking lot with a bunch of cats to star in his child rape ad.

A total lie The reality is the HPV vaccine is SO EFFECTIVE at preventing HPV, cervical cancer is on its way to ELIMINATION in countries which have rolled it out, such as Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, Sweden 🇸🇪 and Australia 🇦🇺!!
🚨ALARMING HARM: HPV Vaccine INCREASES HPV Rates & Ovarian Damage in Girls – Dr. Brian Hooker, PhD The Gardasil HPV vaccine doesn’t even prevent HPV. Florida’s Medicaid database was analyzed, comparing vaccinated vs. unvaccinated girls. The results are alarming: - Vaccinated girls showed much higher rates of ovarian dysfunction and female reproductive disorders. - They also had a greater risk/level of HPV infection itself compared to the unvaccinated group. Dr. Hooker: “We see much, much higher levels of these issues in the individuals that received the vaccine…” Why are we giving this to our children? A vaccine that fails to prevent the very infection it targets — and increases serious reproductive risks instead? Parents, this is from the actual data. Do your research before the next “routine” shot. The HPV rollout continues… but the science from this comparison demands answers. Share this. Question everything. Protect our children.

You knew he was going to say this eventually. "Oil and gas companies are making hundreds of billions of dollars of your hard-earned money" is a great closing message for Republicans.
Trump: "While oil prices are temporarily high ... the United States oil and gas business is making hundreds of billions of dollars"

Trump on Ilhan Omar: “They say she married her brother and had lovely children with him. She comes from a country where all they do is shoot and kill everybody. They asked if I ever married my sister Elizabeth, and I said no.”

When it was reported he expressed this privately during the first term, I asked him whether he said it. He wouldn’t fess up. And his aides screamed for us to get out of the Oval. He’s just letting the Klan talk rip now. xitter.cf/kylegriffin1/status/95…
Trump: Why do we always take people from shithouse countries? Why can't we take people from Norway or Sweden?

The mother who stood by the stepfather who RAPED Amy when she was 9 years old, and who hasn’t spoken with her since Amy was 12. Only a sick fuck would think that this sick fuck of a woman has anything accurate to say about Amy. Her husband raped her daughter and then fled the country!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trump: "This is a disgrace. The mother said that Amy Acton is a liar and she's no good. And you know what? I don't think you can get a better reference than that."
