Every indie & every moderate, reasonable, dem in @MontgomeryCoMD should @VoteforEsther. It’s in your best interest, & it’s in the county’s best interest. The only interest @CMJawando cares about is his far left socialist base. @ModeratelyMoco @MoCoCouncilMD
Here’s my “No Kings in MoCo” Public Comments on 10/27/26. Oppose @CMJawando Expedited Bills 49-26 & 50-26 Consolidated of power. This County Council cannot be trusted! Here’s why! @MoCoCouncilMD @TheMoCoShow @TheMoCoShow @mymcmedia @bethesda_today @MDBayNews @cleanslatemoco @bannermoco @ABC7 @AdamPagnucco @fox5dc

Follow the money trail MoCo! 💰 💰 💰 $115k goes from Will Jawando’s senate committee to the Working Families Party (WFP) PAC, and nearly $88k comes back to support his County Executive run. The State cleared it legally, but the optics remain. MoCo is too critical to be steered by a DSA-aligned agenda! 🚫 Vote accordingly! #WinWithWells Authority: Citizens for Esther Wells, Kara McNulty, Treasurer

If we took all of Elon's money to pay off the national debt, we'd still be 39 trillion dollars in debt. Maybe we have a politician problem, not a billionaire problem.

Many nonprofits are money laundering machines. They never solve the problem for which they were created. There’s no incentive to do so.

NYC: 8.6 million people. $125.8 billion budget. Florida: 23.5 million people. $117.6 billion state budget. Nearly three times the population, a smaller state budget, and Zohran still thinks New Yorkers aren’t taxed enough.

Actually, if you cut an ad saying Americans are having a tough time buying bananas because we spend 1/10 of 1% of the budget on Israel -- with most of that being funneled back to U.S. defense contractors -- and not a really big storm in the Pacific, you do, in fact, hate Jews.
If you think this ad is antisemitic, you’re in a cult and don’t know it. You think Israel is owed all the money it wants from US and if Americans don’t hand it over - without complaint - they’re antisemites. That’s insane, but you don’t realize it because you’ve lost your mind.

I saw @EvanMGlass bragging about knocking a no soliciting door. Then he deleted it. This was my reply This is that macho anti-consent politics Y’all flex on and it’s just the worst. It’s like the text messages you send to people that didn’t opt in. It’s this type of thing that makes people not trust either party and dislike all levels of government.

It’s a real shame we didn’t make this man president and give him both houses of Congress so he could fix healthcare…
Barack Obama: "They are running scary ads to make you think Democrats are radicals, communists, jihadists, or the woke police. What is radical about wanting everybody to have healthcare? How is that radical?"

Eggs are like $2.27. Bananas about $0.41 per pound. But Democrats never let the facts get in the way of a chance to blame those dirty Jews. Fitting that this is how el Sayed closes: lying in service of anti-Semitism.
Abdul El-Sayed blames Israel for the price of your eggs and bananas, even though he knows that higher grocery prices are only due to supply, energy and inflation factors. Shame on anyone voting for a candidate who uses Antisemitic talking points to win an election.

Everyone's chanting "tax the rich" without actually looking at the numbers. Someone earning $200k pays roughly $42,000 in federal income tax. Someone earning $30k pays around $1,800. That means it takes about 23 people earning $30k to match what one person earning $200k contributes. So why is the policy conversation constantly aimed at pushing high earners out, when they're already carrying the overwhelming majority of the load? The issue was never how much revenue comes in. The issue is how much gets wasted once it's collected. Stop aiming at the earners. Start aiming at the spending.

MCPS is changing its plans for the new Crown High School, now set to house Wootton High instead of addressing a projected student shortage. This comes as enrollment forecasts show a significant decline.

Strongly disagree. El-Sayed has already exposed himself as vile anti-semite and an ad blaming Israel for affordability issues is consistent with the message of his entire campaign. Condemning it won't suddenly erase that, so why bother? This is what he believes.
Unless Abdul El-Sayed immediately demands that this campaign ad be taken down and unequivocally condemns it and its creators, he will be exposed as a vile, dangerous, and divisive antisemite. Any (of my fellow) Democrats who condemn the disgusting Ramaswamy ad in Ohio but do not condemn this deserve our unflinching contempt.

This is a perfect representation of Montgomery county democrats. They know what’s best for you, and your consent is irrelevant.
Do you knock on doors with “no soliciting” signs? I do, because our democracy is not for sale.

Ilhan Omar said she will have to move due to all the threats she's been getting . She plans on heading to Philadelphia-since it’s the City of Brotherly Love.

Damn can you frickin imagine this person as governor of Maryland? Embarrassing. Truly a hollowed out state. The machine politicians of this state aren't qualified to run a department store let alone a massive bloated state govt entity. 🙄

Abdul is not the only Muslim to run for the Senate. Mehmet Oz ran in 2024. No one ran against Oz because he’s a Muslim. That’s because Oz didn’t call Israel Bloodthirsty. Oz didn’t write an oped urging support for the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. Oz didn’t have donors who belonged to the MB. Oz didn’t blame terrorism on the policies of the US. And Oz didn’t justify a terrorist on a synagogue. This race isn’t about Abdul’s faith. It’s about his extremist ideas.
El-Sayed: "We had a little debate. Or I had a debate and he just pointed at me and said, 'He's Muslim.'"

This is why @iamwesmoore won’t approve Maryland opting into the federal tax credit program. Because he knows parents will leave failing Maryland public schools even faster. Instead of trapping families without resources, give them the choice to do what’s best for our children.
