Hey, new followers. I mostly tweet about politics (Democratic Party supporter & call out nonsense from others) & sports (White Sox, Packers, & the Illini). If you aren’t a supporter of the above (except Bears, Cubs, & B1G fans), you’re probably following the wrong person. Cheers.
I’ve never seen such tone deaf not meeting the moment people in all my life. Vote Roger Marshall out. Let’s go, @Hamilton4Kansas
Sen. @RogerMarshallMD (R-KS): "This is one of the best economies I've ever seen in my lifetime."

OBAMA: I inherited this major financial crisis. I never called my Treasury Secretary and said, “You've got to go to Arby's. Order roast beef. No cheese though that may look elitist.”
They don't have solutions to actual problems, so they'd rather have the media and you talking about the Cheesecake Factory.
Beautiful day for my three mile walk. Too bad I tripped on an uneven sidewalk and fell hard a half a mile into it. I think I’m ok. Hands will be bruised tomorrow and wrists sore, but I think I’m alright. Ugh.

Millions of people cast their votes in 2024 because they feared trans people, immigrants, Muslims, and "wokeness".
Those votes gave Republicans full control of the federal government.
Now, gas is more expensive, inflation is higher, wage gains are lower, housing is more expensive, healthcare costs are skyrocketing, the deficit is growing, the national debt has exploded, good jobs are practically non-existent, and the economy is ruined.
The very Republicans who caused this mess are running once again on the idea that trans people, immigrants, Muslims, and Socialists are scary.
It is time to stop falling for the culture war nonsense.
I genuinely feel that @ananavarro has been one of the best commentators during this election season; really the last two years. On @theview and on CNN, her words are very powerful and ring true. I enjoy her a lot. @iamchanteezy @Brianteta
Ana Navarro: “The reason he’s talking about Jon Husted’s ass, which is very weird, is because he can’t talk about gas prices cause they’re through the roof. He can’t talk about inflation. Mortgage, 7.5%. Diesel, $6. In order not to talk about those issues voters care about, he’s gotta distract with this. But that doesn’t mean that it’s not weird. It’s also ironic. Vance insinuated that Talarico was gay and here Donald Trump sounds like he’s auditioning for an elderly character in Heated Rivalry”

At some point it's all just too much, no? People putting politics above basic human decency? Normal people still find this stuff repulsive, right?
President Trump strongly defends Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad featuring Amy Acton’s estranged mom. Trump: “That took a lot of courage to do but, essentially, what she was really doing was saving Ohio from making a truly horrible choice! The Press is trying to convince everyone that this Ad is bad, because it’s so good! Who wouldn’t use such an Ad? I would, it’s called, ‘hitting pay dirt.’”
