For everyday Floridians, healthcare isn’t about politics, it’s a matter of survival. Yet, Republican Ryan Elijah thinks his party did “a great job” passing the One Big Beautiful Bill that cut healthcare for over 1.5 million Floridians. Then again, what more can you expect from an out-of-touch TV anchor running for Congress? It’s simple: Central Florida can’t afford to elect Ryan Elijah.

Navy vet Zach Dembo isn’t shying away from the biggest issue of this election. He put the Iran war front and center during last night's KY-06 debate. Dembo served. He knows the cost of war and the consequences it brings back home. So he’s making his position clear: a vote for Dembo is a vote to end this conflict for good. It’s your call, Kentucky. Make the right choice, and elect Zach Dembo to Congress.

President Obama just reminded us all something very important: he stopped Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, all without firing a single shot. Trump tore that deal up, and now we’re seven months into a forever war that nobody wanted. What's the result? American service members are coming home in caskets, gas prices are at record highs, and Iran is closer to a nuclear weapon than ever before. That's not the victory we were promised.

It was COMPLETE CHAOS, in Bahrain, leaving military families unprotected, exposed, from Iranian drones and attacks. Pete Hegseth's pentagon left the families to defend for themselves in Bahrain!

Barack Obama is back on the campaign trail, and he just TORCHED Pete Hegseth. Obama pointed out what we already know: these are not serious people. While Hegseth obsesses over jawlines, testosterone levels, and livestreamed executions, our troops are fighting a war nobody asked for. In 10 days, we all can do something about their incompetence.

Anna Paulina Luna has voted six times to continue the Iran war. Now we might know why. Her husband owns 10% of Nokturnal AI, a drone startup she valued at just $1,000 in 2025 that has since raked in $37 million in Pentagon contracts. Coincidence? We don’t think so. Luna talks a big game about fighting corruption, but the rules never seem to apply when it’s her pockets that are being lined. motherjones.com/politics/202…

In yet another example of the Trump administration's incompetency, Melania Trump has reportedly helped broker a small-scale, temporary pause between Russia and Ukraine in one town, while her husband and his flunkies continue to hand the country overall to Putin. All of this underscores the complete and utter failure of this administration. We need real experts, committed to the freedom of the western world handling our real diplomatic challenges and Trump's family and lackeys aren't up to the task. nytimes.com/2026/10/23/us/po…

Cait Conley is 100% right: Pete Hegseth has made the Pentagon worse by every measure that matters. Troops can’t get medical care in the field, experienced leaders have been fired for loyalty tests, and a forever war is being fought with no strategy and no end in sight. As an Army Veteran, Cait knows what competent leadership looks like, and she knows people get hurt when it’s missing. NY-17 can elect someone who will hold Hegseth’s feet to the fire. Let’s make the right call and send Conley to Congress.

According to new reporting, current and former Pentagon officials are ready to cooperate with Democrats planning to investigate Pete Hegseth if they retake Congress. Some of those closest to Hegseth even said in private that they're ready to “spill their guts” the moment they get the chance. Accountability is coming, but only if voters hand Democrats the power to deliver it. These are the stakes this November. telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2026…

ete Hegseth ordered that Eisenhower’s globe be placed in his office. But before he could even get his photo op, the globe was already broken, lazily mishandled by his staff. It’s hard to think of a better metaphor for Hegseth’s tenure as Secretary of Defense: incompetent at every level. Eisenhower went down in history as an American hero. Hegseth will go down in infamy as the worst Secretary of Defense in our nation’s history. A globe in his office can’t change that, and he couldn’t even do that right. washingtonpost.com/national-…

Service members, contractors, and military families are now coming forward with images they say the Pentagon hid, and the accounts behind them are brutal. From Saudi Arabia to Kuwait to Jordan, American bases were pummeled by Iranian drones and missiles. Most of this happened in the early months of the war, yet these pictures are only emerging now, because the people who lived it are tired of the Pentagon's coverup. They’re taking a real risk by leaking these photos. The least we can do is make sure people see them. meidasnews.com/news/so-much-…

Chris Deluzio just laid out how Democrats plan to rein in Trump’s war with Iran: aggressive oversight, accountability for the failures that left troops unprotected in Kuwait and families abandoned in Bahrain, and getting hard answers from a Pentagon that has refused to give any. Republicans have done none of that. In two weeks, Democrats will do all of it.

When Trump started his war with Iran, 1,300 military family members had to flee Bahrain under missile fire. Now they can’t go back, and the Navy told them to find a new home somewhere in the US. Families are burning through savings, some tens of thousands of dollars, while they bounce between hotels and short-term rentals waiting on reimbursements that never seem to come. This is the cost of a war no one planned how to end, or even properly begin.

VoteVets is on the radio in Michigan’s First Congressional District, hitting Republican Jack Bergman for his role in protecting VA healthcare scams. Callie Barr has spent her life advocating for disabled Veterans, Jack Bergman has spent his career profiting from them.

Donald Trump told poisoned Veterans at Camp Lejeune they’ll only get the government’s help if Republicans win the midterms, and Vice Admiral Nancy Lacore is pissed off about it. In her eyes, this is exactly what’s wrong with our politics, because veterans shouldn’t have to vote the right way to get the relief they’re owed. She's running for Congress to change that.

Donald Trump just told Veterans poisoned by toxic water at Camp Lejeune that they’ll only get the money they’re owed if Republicans win the midterms. These are Marines and their families who drank contaminated water for decades, got cancer, and have been begging the government for relief. But when Trump visits them for a rally, his only message is: vote my way or you get nothing. That's desperate and disgusting behavior from our Commander In Chief.

Pete Hegseth just gutted the system troops use to report wrongdoing. The military’s Inspector General is how a service member safely reports fraud, abuse, a dangerous commander, or a sexual assault, often anonymously, without fear of retaliation. Hegseth’s overhaul strips that anonymity, lets “non-credible” complaints get tossed, and flags anyone who files too often. He calls the old system “weaponized," yet offered no evidence. A junior enlisted troop who sees something wrong just lost their safest way to say so. That doesn't protect the force. It protects the people at the top. military.com/pete-hegseth-an…

Pat Ryan just gave us a preview of what’s coming once Democrats retake control of Congress, and if I were Pete Hegseth, I’d be nervous. Democrats aren’t just planning to win the majority. They’re planning to use it. On day one they're demanding oversight hearings, subpoenas, and accountability for every soldier still in harm’s way and every military family this Pentagon has failed. Buckle up Pete, the next two years are going to be a very bumpy ride.
