Went to HyVee to grab some beer and the authoritarians running the store forced me to produce an age passport issued by government overlords to buy the beer. Whats next, —a driving passport to operate my car on government streets?

As his policies bankrupt them, Trump-supporting farmers fully embrace socialism. But only if it’s for them.

Time to ask the question- Do Flood and Ricketts support Trump because Trump loves to talk about other men's bodies?
Trump is unhinged. He came to Michigan to say why Abdul El-Sayed is so dangerous, stepped away from the microphone to describe Jon Husted's body, then talked about Nicki Minaj's ass. Not gas. Not jobs. Not prices. Not inflation. Just asses.

Heading to Omaha today to do an event with and campaign for @osbornforne. Let’s take down Pete Ricketts, another Trump-enabling Republican, and send Dan Osborn, a great Independent candidate, to the U.S. Senate.

Classic. The Muslim Brotherhood was a group of “moderates we have to talk to” when Rogers was the one engaging them in 2012—now the same organization is disqualifying when the opponent is El-Sayed. Principles bend with the campaign calendar.

wow -- a squirming Mike Rogers gets flustered as Kristen Welker points out that while he attacks El-Sayed over the Muslim Brotherhood, *Rogers himself* defended the Muslim Brotherhood during the same period of time that El-Sayed did!

Obama: "Republicans are doing what they always do, running all kinds of scary ads about Democrats and how the woke police will arrest you and force-feed you tofu. We are not gonna fall for that. They run that same okie doke every election. It's tired. Tired!"

OBAMA: When I was president, all these Republicans are all deficits, deficits, debt, debt. You got to do something about it. And now—$40 trillion—Crickets. Somehow deficits only matter when a Democratic president is in office

Obama: "You got the defense secretary who is like a laser focused on important matters like the jawline and testosterone levels of our troops, and livestreaming executions because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit. How much time do you think this man spends in front of the mirror every day?"

TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

Steve Hilton claims diesel in California is expensive because of Democrats. Andy Beshear schools him: One year ago, the price of diesel was less than half. Donald Trump alone has caused that increase, and anybody who supports him is responsible for it too.

So, to be clear, the letter written by the mother who actually raised Pete Hegseth written 6 years before he was confirmed as SECDEF saying he was an abuser of women was just a trivial family dispute but a statement by a mother who lost custody of her child for abuse and neglect and hasn’t seen her in 50 years is “fair game” and the mother who abandoned her child for an indicted child rapist was “so brave” to trash her child. That’s the @GOP
Q: Now that you know the backstory about Amy Acton and her stepfather and why she hasn't talked to her mom in so long -- her stepfather was indicted for rape -- do you change your mind about the ad? TRUMP: No. No. It's a mother speaking badly against Amy Acton. You don't know anything.

Baier: When they say they’re stopping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon do you care about that? El-Sayed: Of course I do. We had done that under Obama. If Trump had cared about stopping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, he wouldn't have torn up the JCPOA. This is entirely about his vanity.
