We are Ohio residents and will be voting for Vivek Ramaswamy & straight red ballot. P.S. I still want Amy Acton to debate him merely for the comedic value. It would be hilariously humiliating to her.🤷‍♀️

What will Podcastistan complain about next? 🤔

NICE! 🇺🇸

Meet Daniel Campo. He’s a legal immigrant from Venezuela & volunteer firefighter in Northampton County, PA. “In Venezuela & in Cuba, the Communists got rid of our guns.” “[The Communists] will not stop only with the 2nd Amendment. They will go after the 1st one & any other amendment that will get in their way of their goals.” “[The Communists] want to pack the courts.” “No matter how egregious a law and unconstitutional, the gov’t could always get away with it b/c the courts were on [the gov’t’s] side.” “They want to get rid of the Senate; if they get rid of the Senate, they can have the tyranny of the many.” It’s not the democrat party anymore — it’s the Communist Party straight out of Venezuela & Cuba. This is what’s coming to America. It’s Republican or Communist. 👉@DanCampo96 is brilliant & deserves a follow👈

THEY BACKED DEWINE. NOW THEY CALL VIVEK “DEI.” They called DeWine a RINO and still backed him. Now some of the same voices smear Vivek as “DEI.” Be honest. That is not a policy critique. That is a color test. A tiny faction wants a white-only ticket and hides behind “he’s a bad candidate.” Racism is demonic. Competence is not. Vivek is running on results: better schools, higher standards, real choice, and an education system families can actually afford. He is sharper than half the governors in America. Judge the platform. Stop judging the skin. Ohio first. Merit first. #VivekForOhio #OhioGovernor #MeritNotRace #SchoolChoice #BetterSchools #AmericaFirst #ConservativeHonesty

Nailed it. Many people are trying to lose ON PURPOSE so they can say "I told you so" and then cash in on outrage content. Don't stay home. Vote Republican. Read this 👇👇👇👇

There is absolutely ZERO Democrat candidates or incumbents whose policies LOWER gas prices. They are all the party of kneecapping American energy, closing diesel refineries, forced EV production, and climate cult activists.

Congratulations Iowa! 🇺🇸

Anyone else find it strange that the people who constantly called us racists are attacking Vivek Ramaswamy for religion and race?

I love how these millionaire podcasters, who've never had a real job in their lives, and never been in the military, pretend to really understand the struggles of the average joe - all from their million dollar studios with their 25 team staff, or broadcasting from their 10 million dollar mansions. They're really down with the struggle.

Bot accounts that are a few weeks old getting 1.4 million views in 3 hours on retweets of easily debunked propaganda is pretty wild. Obama started the denial of student loans based on their degree worth & called it The Gainful Employment rule. Biden expanded it usnews.com/news/articles/201… usnews.com/news/articles/201… freopp.org/whitepapers/accou…

To their dismay, We’re still backing Trump and we will Continue to back the policies to Make America Great Again in the future.

This should serve as a Warning to Americans. Vote Red or prepare yourselves to go down this same path.

No country should be soft on terrorism. Government’s primary duty is to protect its people. They use many UK is failing miserably.

🚨The Noah’s Ark Scans project @noahsarkscans in Turkey has 3 people linked to the white nationalist cause in its new leadership. Here is its spokesperson & fundraiser, Lauren Witzke, endorsing violent vandalism against Muslim civilians, celebrating that “the Anglo has finally begun to hate.” She also calls for mass deportations of Muslims from Europe & mass deportation of Muslim refugees from America—for nothing other than identifying as being Muslim. Of course, she claims that Muslim immigration is a Jewish plot. Note her praise for Cynthia McKinney, who participated in making an explicitly pro-Hitler film produced by Witzke’s former boss, Stew Peters. McKinney also works with Basira Press, which is run by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps and has met with PFLP terrorists.

This is who is behind the Trump amnesty hoaxes,Reid Hoffman,who laundered them through Steve Bannon,who then passed it off to the usual groyp network who are rehashing it yet again with this "new"weekend hoax. The Gateway pundit pushed this for an entire yr for Steve Bannon.

Not looking good for John Brennan

House Democrats keep putting it on the record. Believe the votes. Of roughly 212 House Democrats: ➡️ 212 of 212 voted AGAINST the tax package that included No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, No Tax on Social Security, a doubled Child Tax Credit, and Trump Accounts for kids ➡️ 212 of 212 voted AGAINST the $70 billion border / ICE / CBP funding bill ➡️ 213 voted AGAINST the SAVE America Act (proof of citizenship to vote). Only 1 Democrat voted yes ➡️ 208 of 212 voted AGAINST the original SAVE Act / voter ID bill. Only 4 Democrats voted yes ➡️ 206 voted AGAINST keeping men out of girls’ sports. Only 2 Democrats voted yes ➡️ 205 voted AGAINST locking the Supreme Court at 9 justices. Only 1 Democrat voted yes ➡️ 203 voted AGAINST banning biological males from girls’ sports. Only 5 Democrats voted yes ➡️ 201 voted AGAINST the Kayla Hamilton Act tightening screening of unaccompanied migrant minors. Only 7 Democrats voted yes ➡️ 198 voted AGAINST the Stop Insider Trading Act. Only 13 Democrats voted yes ➡️ 198 voted AGAINST requiring parental consent before schools change a child’s gender records. Only 8 Democrats voted yes ➡️ 194 voted AGAINST ending D.C.’s sanctuary policy ➡️ 192 voted AGAINST a resolution condemning socialism. Only 8 Democrats voted yes ➡️ 159 of 212 voted AGAINST the Laken Riley Act requiring detention of illegal immigrants charged with theft. 48 Democrats voted yes The pattern is not complicated. On taxes, the border, voter ID, girls’ sports, the Court, parental rights, and congressional stock trading, almost the entire Democratic caucus voted no. A handful of names keep crossing - Cuellar, Golden, Gluesenkamp Perez, Davis, Gonzalez. The rest of the caucus voted as a bloc. That is the record. The roll call. So in what world would ANY SANE AMERICAN read this list, go to the Congress website to verify and then sit out the midterms? REPOST this so it can reach the masses.
