President Reagan was right almost 50 years ago when he warned the Cuban people that their supposed leaders would do nothing but line their own pockets under the guise of Communism.

The absurdity of socialism/communism: the only way they “lower costs” of food, fuel & healthcare is by subsidizing with American tax dollars, all while pushing open borders that put legal American citizens into survival mode for not only basic necessities but also the safety of our families. Historically, socialism repeatedly produced shortages, famines, economic stagnation or collapse, mass emigration, and authoritarian control. Today’s Democrat Party has gone full throttle on this! There’s something to be said for not voting for any Democrat…not even for dog catcher. Aligning with Democrats is unfathomable. #CommonSenseVsCrazy #VoteRepublican🗳️ @Republicans @NEGOP

This is my school district that threatened to sue me in 2021 for sending public records requests about their gender identity policies. Now they're getting threatened with an investigation into those gender identity policies. REALLY should not have threatened me.
‼️NEW — AFL has filed a federal complaint about a Rhode Island school district hiding students’ “gender transitions” from parents. Schools’ “transgender” policies are out of control.

Should government officials have to answer questions from the media? Of course….mostly! But by the same token, shouldn’t reporters report the news by asking who, what, when, where, and why and not be an extension of a political party? “I don’t agree with you, and I’m going to make sure everyone knows you hurt my feelings” isn’t journalism, it’s a diary entry with a press pass. #USPolitics #FakeNewsMedia #TrumpAdministration #CNN #MSNOW #PoliticalHumor #PoliticalNews #WhiteHouse

Ignorance comes in two forms, accidental and intentional. One is not knowing. The other is refusing to know. In other words. NOT knowing makes you ignorant. REFUSING to know makes you @TheDemocrats. Class dismissed….. #PoliticalDrama #PoliticalHumor #LiberalismisaMentalDisease #PoliticalSatire #WillfulIgnorance #DemocratLogic #ConservativeHumor #CommonSense #WakeUpAmerica #ConservativeVoices #DeadpanRepublic

I’m thinking it’s about time to get this movie and subsequent series into production. I could watch @FBIDirectorKash dismantle the unhinged @SenateDems all day long. Maybe we can get the great Christopher Lloyd to play @SenSanders? This could be huge….who’s in? I’ll Executive Produce…. #kashmeifyoucan #PoliticalHumor #USPolitics #KashPatel #DemocratsAreADisgrace

It’s hard to believe that so many have forgotten, when they swore they wouldn’t. It’s hard to believe that we once stood in solidarity, as one nation, one heart, one people, now we focus on our differences instead our likeness. It’s hard to believe we once focused on America and her citizens, now…now the focus is on division and allowing anti-America narrative consume the conversation. Let’s try it again, remember the lives, remember the heroes….remember who we were. Truly…Never Forget! #neverforget #AmericaFirst

I am thrilled to welcome @POTUS to my home of Gastonia next Wednesday September 16. President Trump needs an ally in the Senate and North Carolina needs a fighter. That’s why we will win on November 3! who.nucleuspages.com/events/…

The epitome of #TDS is when your party runs a state into the ground that you have had control of for 80+ years, and you blame a president who’s had the reins fewer than 8 years. Not to mention, your party rails against corporate greed and the evils that go with corporations, yet you promote major corporation Executive to come in to fix it. Makes perfect sense if you don’t think about it! #TDS #RIPolitics #RIPoliticsAsUsual
.@HelenaBFoulkes is a lifelong Rhode Islander, mother, grandmother, cancer survivor, and role model for young women. She will fight Trump's attacks on RI and fight for good jobs, more housing, and affordability. We are excited to work with her to secure a victory in November! 🌊

Gee, I wonder what angle @SethMagaziner going to use to attack @VicMellorForRI? Hmmm..
Jan 6th was a dark day for our country. A violent mob attacked police and tried to block an election. Vic Mellor says it was of the best day of his life. For police attacked that day, it was the worst. No one who participated in that attack should represent R.I. in Congress.

Proof that if necessary, we can all vote in Election Day and eliminate mail-in ballots and early voting. #RIElectionDayHoliday
Election Day turnout eclipses early voting, bringing total R.I. primary turnout to 93,863 or 11.9 percent as of 1 p.m. Polls are open until 8 p.m. @Globe_RI will have full coverage of the results tonight at Globe.com/RI

Voting in the Primary starts it all, this is when your voice is loudest. If you skip it, spare us the 12 month lecture on how the RI government is screwing everything up. #RIPolitics #2026RIPrimary #RIRepubicans #ridemocrats

Once again RI sits at the bottom of the pile. This isn’t bad luck, it’s decades of @RIDemParty rule. High taxes, crushing costs, bloated government, failing infrastructure. And yet every election season they show up and say they’re going to fix it…again. The Dems haven’t just run the state for 80 years….they’ve run it into the ground. Pathetic. #RhodeIsland #Election2026 #EnoughisEnough #RIPolitics

Democrats aren't just condoning anti-Semites; they're nominating them across the country.

Sad performative acting on behalf of the esteemed Guvnah. Wish he showed that much energy running the state.
#ICYMI: Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee and his challenger, Helena Foulkes, had many tense exchanges at Tuesday night's #RIGovDebate. Watch the full debate at WPRI.com or on the WPRI 12+ TV app: wpri.com/news/politics/watch…

The @TheDemocrats lost their mind when they got called out for having Hasan Piker - @hasanthehun as a top advisor for @AbdulElSayed. I can’t imagine how they’ll spin that Abdul’s mom worked for a terror group who funded Osama bin Laden. #neverforget #youforgot #politics
🚨INSANE: Abdul El-Sayed’s mother worked for a TERROR GROUP that directly funded Osama bin Laden, the Taliban, and Hamas.

We require photo ID to buy alcohol, board a plane, check into a hotel, get a hunting license, or drive a car. But apparently in some @TheDemocrats run states…. “These are friends, I vouch for them” is sufficient. Voter fraud isn’t always mail ballot stuffing in some back room, sometimes it’s state sanctioned. When a state makes it easier to vote than to buy a six-pack, ask the obvious questions: Why? Who benefits? And what exactly is the end goal? Pay attention. #VoterFraud #MinnesotaPolitics #PoliticalNews #MinneapolisVoters

I wonder how many everyday @TheDemocrats agree with their current Top Advisor @hasanthehun Hasan Piker? When faced with the choice of “America First” or “Death to America” as currently advised by the Democrat Political Advisors, where do you stand? @SenJackReed @SheldonforRI @gabeamo @SethMagaziner, what say you? – at Rhode Island, USA
