I don’t care what media platform I go on, my stance remains the same. My policies remain the same. What I intend to do remains the same. I’m not changing my message depending on who is interviewing me or what audience is watching.
I’m asking American citizens to trust me with elected office in America. I’m asking American citizens to vote for me. So why would I be afraid to say that American citizens come first?
If you’re asking to hold elected office in America, but you’re afraid to say that the citizens you are elected to represent will be your priority, then I don’t know what else to tell you.
I’m not going to cower down. I’m not going to change my stance to make somebody comfortable. Whether the cameras are on or off, whether you agree with me or disagree with me, you’re going to hear the same thing from Danielle Carter-Walters.
My stance is my stance. My policies are my policies.
AMERICAN CITIZENS FIRST. CHICAGOANS FIRST.
And that’s just the way it is.

CHICAGO, LOOK AT THIS.
A roundtable with candidates for Mayor of Chicago , but I’m not invited.
Chicagoans, pay attention.
When the media, and the Democratic machine decides which candidates get invited, which candidates get airtime, and which candidates get presented to voters as the “serious” choices, voters have every right to question that process.
I call this election interference in the democratic process.
This is how the same names and the same political establishment continue to dominate the conversation while candidates offering real change are left out.
The MEDIA, or THE DEMOCRATIC MACHINE should not be picking your candidates for you.
CHICAGOANS SHOULD DECIDE WHO THEY WANT TO HEAR FROM.
You deserve to hear from ALL legitimate candidates, compare our records, compare our platforms, ask us the tough questions, and then make your own decision.
I’m running for Mayor of Chicago in 2027, and whether certain media outlets , or propaganda organizations invite me to their roundtables or not, I’m going directly to the people.
Because the people , not the political machine and not the media, will ultimately decide this election.

When Dolly Parton died, my right-leaning friends were simply sad. They remembered her music, her personality and the enormous amount of good she did for other people.
What struck me was that some of the left-leaning reaction I saw immediately turned to questions like whether she had supported Palestinians, as though a dead woman needed to pass one final political purity test before she could be mourned.
I find that bizarre.
Dolly Parton did not belong to the right or the left. She was a human being who lived a remarkable life and helped a great many people.
The speed with which some people try to make someone’s death politically useful is becoming a pretty good measure of how badly tribalism has distorted our sense of basic decency.
Sometimes the proper response to a death is simply: she lived, she contributed, she mattered, and she will be missed.

Thank you @JeffDye
When Megan Rapinoe, Billie Jean King, Simone Biles, Sue Bird, Diana Taurasi, Brittney Griner, Naomi Osaka or Coco Gauff speak about politics it’s “heroic” and “Bigger than Sports” but when Sophie Cunningham answers a political question she was asked it’s a “distraction from the game” and “disgusting”??????
When did we let our sports and media get so politically bias. We are being indoctrinated and unfortunately most of you are lapping it up.

Sophie Cunningham responds to criticism over her recent comments to ESPN about wanting to protect women's sports from "biological men."
"I said what I said. I think it's kind of common sense.
When it comes just to protecting young girls in sport and women in sport, I feel very strongly about that. That's why you have Title IX.
That's why you have some of the greats in women's sports. If Title IX women's sports weren't protected, then you wouldn't hear about any type of women in sport.
I have never once said that I hated the trans community."
In her interview with ESPN, Cunningham had said:
"I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn't have to go against biological men."

🚨Stephen A. Smith just weighed in hard on Sophie Cunningham’s bold statement:🚨
“Transgenders should not compete in biologically female sports.”
Sophie is standing firm as a true PROPONENT of fair play in women’s athletics. The debate is heating up and everyone’s talking.

Maher just told the Rosie O'Donnells and Kathy Griffins of the world that it's THEIR FAULT for being so obsessed with Trump.
He says if you are still fuming over his personality ten years in, that's not on Trump, "THAT'S ON YOU!"
MAHER: "You're just WAY TOO into Donald Trump as the person who CONTROLS how you think in life."
"If, at this point, 10 years into the Trump situation, you are still obsessing about his personality, my view is that's on YOU."
"I don't care about your ballroom. I don't care what you do on the lawn. You can have UFC fights. You can have sheep grazing there, like one president did. You can do anything you want. Pickleball! I don't give a shit what you do on the lawn. And if you're a person who does, you're just way too into Donald Trump..."
"As long as it's something that doesn't really affect me or other people... I DON'T CARE!"
"Your life is all about Donald Trump. Mine isn't."

Bill Maher nails the biggest difference between Republicans and Democrats.
Maher told JD Vance he found it “odd” that Republicans who don’t have his vote still come on his show, while Democrats who do have his support refuse to appear.
MAHER: “That’s what I love about those Republicans.”
“The first thing I said to him [Vance] was, it’s so odd, isn’t it, that like, I didn’t vote for you and yet you guys come to the show and take your beating like a man.”
“The Democrats don’t come.”
“And yet they got my vote!”
“That’s just odd, isn’t it?”

What he said!!
Bill Maher on America’s 250th Birthday: "I’m NOT DOWN with this attitude of ‘Well, we’re having a party, but if Trump’s going, I’m not.’ That’s so high school it should be in the Epstein files.”
“Go to the party; it’s a big celebration. You probably won’t run into him. This country’s 3.8M square miles, and that’s without Greenland.”
