I’ve had this song stuck in my head for 16 days and I’m not even mad about it. Best ad of the cycle.
🔥 New SLF ad running on Maine radio is a banger: "Troy Jackson is weird. If he'll [bleep] his own family, he'll [bleep] yours, too..."

It's awesome that the NYT exposed this, but as of this morning, 10% of Alaskans have already voted. This has been a rumor since the spring and good journalism would have been informing voters what was up before ballots went out.
SCOOP: Democrats have insisted they have nothing to do with the other Dan Sullivan on Alaska's Senate ballot. But aides with the Mary Peltola campaign and DSCC were part of a monthslong secret plan to recruit him to run -- as well as other candidates. nytimes.com/2026/10/28/us/po…

My rescue works with counties where poverty and a lack of resources leave animals with nowhere to go. We bring them north where homes are abundant. That's why euthanasia rates in MPLS or Chicago are <10% Detroit had resources. AES had options. This is a failure of leadership.
Michigan Democrats just nominated Abdul El-Sayed for Senate. He oversaw Detroit's animal shelter where the kill rate hit 74%, whistleblowers called it a slaughterhouse, and the city paid $63,000 to settle a lawsuit over the conditions. Feces backed up into kennels. Rats and cockroaches everywhere. This is the guy they want representing Michigan. He can't even take care of dogs. And he's supposed to represent you. Michigan deserves better.

Trust me, if my “larger forces” friends and I ran a Jewish shadow government, we'd have ended your campaign after the tattoo came out. Turns out that finding you repulsive actually spans all religions!
My name might be on the ballot right now, but that ballot line belongs to the people of Maine.

All of these Dems had no issue with Graham Platner being a Jew-hating Nazi who assaults women. He's only suddenly a problem for the Dems because polls show he loses to Susan Collins. They're complete frauds.

I quite literally don’t have the words to say how it feels to see another woman and a fellow Jew endorse this man. @SenSchumer @SenGillibrand I don’t know how you can look at yourselves in the mirror. You should be so ashamed.
Schumer and Gillibrand: “We will work with the presumptive Democratic nominee Graham Platner” to defeat Collins

In a parallel universe, the #DCPress would be writing glass-ceiling-shatters stories about how all 3 GOP campaign committees (RGA-NRCC-RGA) are helmed by women. But no, instead we get unattributed grumbling about a canine. Never change, #DCpress, never change!
New: Senate Republicans and WH officials are increasingly frustrated with the NRSC and believe the top two, Tim Scott and Jennifer DeCasper, aren’t taking the job seriously. Example: during one meeting, DeCasper let her dog walk on the conference table. notus.org/2026-election/nrsc…

The Democratic Party’s new anti-Israel litmus test is dangerously, shameful and heartbreaking.
I am returning AIPAC donations and refusing to accept any donations or support from them. The FEC filing I made yesterday reflects that we are returning donations.

Today, we remember the brave pups who worked alongside first responders on 9/11. They comforted so many when the world needed it most. Their courage and loyalty will never be fur-gotten. We honor them, and all the dogs who continue to serve and protect us every day.

I was called into court to give a statement about a man who'd exposed himself to me on the metro. He had over 200 charges to date. Court was delayed 4 hours for him to "calm down" after calling the judge the c-word. Once he had, she dismissed the new charges and let him go.
Hey DC, let’s push back against the negative narrative about our city. Share why you love our beautiful home and help show the world the real DC. #TheRealDC

In 2021, I emailed @charlesallen asking for help with the prostitutes on my corner who came into my yard nightly. Allen replied that could commiserate because he had the same problem but that he didn't want to involve MPD because he didn't want them to get criminal records.
The President taking over local control of MPD & putting the US military onto the streets of DC under the guise of public safety is wrong. It’s an extreme, outrageous, and dangerous move for our city and the safety of all our residents. (1/5)

Some ask, “Why not a new face?” Because experience matters—and in this Senate race, character matters even more. @JohnCornyn is a man of his word. When he makes a promise – whether to his constituents or the Almighty – he keeps it. His record, his resolve, and his deep loyalty to Texas prove it every time. #txsen

A sampling of how the Ken Paxton bot army immediately attacked the victim. Disgusting. Reprehensible. #txsen

So proud of all my friends at @NRCC. House races are the most fun and wild portfolio and holding the majority is a testament to the team's creativity, dedication and organization.
