Lemme pick that up for him: Yes, yes it is. A vote for Rogers is a vote for the Trump agenda.

next thing you know @realDonaldTrump is going to say he invented gaydar
Trump: "My uncle invented radar! Can you believe it?"
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Donald Trump's uncle did not invent radar. The "first practical radar system" was patented by Sir Robert Watson-Watt, who built on the work of others such as Heinrich Hertz and Christian Huelsmeyer.

Don’t become numb to this. It’s disgusting and dangerous racism and if Rogers wins next month it’ll only escalate.
Sick, sick stuff.

I never think I could be more disgusted by a person.
Yet every day outdoes the last.
SMH.

If you support this person, you’re supporting this. And ‘this’ is straight up racism and bigotry. Stop being scared, and start being better.

RFK Jr: The polio vaccine “killed many, many more people” than polio ever did.
What absolute garbage
I still can't believe he said this

The President has admitted he was the impetus for this bogus lawsuit.
This is not a DOJ effort to allow Alaskans to determine Alaska’s future and its representation in the Senate, but the President’s effort to interfere with exactly that.
The technical, legal term for the Attorney General‘s argument is BS.
The Department of Justice does not seek to stop any ballot from being cast or to stop the certification of Alaska's election. This litigation seeks to ensure that after Alaskans cast their ballots, they are preserved in a manner so that only Alaska's governing officials have the information necessary to make a determination as to whether Alaskan voters were confused or mislead.
The lawsuit was written by Justice Department attorneys and the Department did not coordinate with any campaign or candidate, but rather relied solely on federal law.

You took marching orders from Trump. You filed a frivolous and sanctionable case. You are going to lose.
Mary Peltola is going to win this election and when she is sworn in, I hope you are there to sit and weep.

In his new book (of course), Senator Thom Tillis says that top NC Republican leaders, as well as Governor Josh Stein, together told him directly that Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" would cost North Carolina almost $2 billion per year, every year, for a decade, kick hundreds of thousands of people off their Medicaid plans, and cripple rural hospitals. Their concerns helped convince Tillis to oppose the "OBBB" (albeit at the last moment).
For opposing his bill, Trump destroyed Tillis's career and vowed to primary him. And those same NC Republican leaders now refuse any comment and say they fully support Trump.

if you live in the Tampa/Orlando area, this will be a fantastic event at an incredible venue
You may be unaware that I had a VERY short stint in Marine Corps OCS. I'll be talking about those experiences and how my eating disorders and body image played into my decision to DOR.

The majority of people also understand how saying Trump’s Oval Office decor looks like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory is not the same as making fun of something they like. They also understand that the White House should not look like a Cheesecake Factory. 🙄🤦🏻♂️

This is straight up unrepentant racism. And if you still support all this, you are most certainly not the decent person you most certainly think you are.

They cut out the part where the mother said Acton was lying about having to live in a tent, because Acton told the truth. So now it's just her mother, who sided with a twice-indicted sexual abuser over her daughter, claiming Acton is a liar. Truly one of the worst ads ever.
Update: there is now a 30 second version of the Vivek Ramaswamy ad featuring Amy Acton’s estranged mother
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Court records confirm Amy Acton's mother lost custody of Acton in 1978. She then helped her husband flee the state and stayed with him until he died a fugitive in 2004.
Therefore, any lies the mother references must have occurred when Acton was 12 years old or younger.

The fact that Trump will remove tariffs to help Republicans win elections, but he won’t remove tariffs to help Americans afford necessities, tells you exactly what his priorities are.
BREAKING:
The United States is expected to remove 50% tariffs on some Canadian products in a bid to help Maine Senator Susan Collins and other Republicans in the upcoming midterm elections.

An iPhone is “a spy in your pocket.”
If you've owned an iPhone in the last 10 years, Apple recorded you.
Medical visits. Bedroom moments. Drug deals. Apple contractors listened to the clips.
They just paid $95 million to settle it. Checks up to $100 are in the mail right now.
Most iPhone users have no idea this happened to them.
Here's how to stop it in 30 seconds:

It will take decades to unwind the layers of corruption of Trump's orbit
The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…
