I stand with the Cuban people in their calls for freedom & basic human rights as they bravely take their protests to the streets. We have a solemn duty to uplift their message & call directly on the authoritarian regime to listen to the people & serve them in their time of need.
Wow. Cardiologist/medical analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner:
“Fetterman’s residual neurological injury is substantial. Much greater than his campaign has led the public to believe. It’s more than just processing hearing. It’s incredibly sad to watch.”

“This campaign is not about my personal life” is absolutely not a sustainable answer from now until November.

The louder Dems and their liberal media allies whine, the more effective you know a hit is.
Lots of complaining about ads accurately pointing out Dems’ own soft-on-crime positions lately…
One message in campaign ads from Republican candidates and their allies ahead of the Nov. 8 elections is this:
America is a dangerous place. Democrats made it that way.
Ads in governor, U.S. Senate and U.S. House races aim to trigger fear.
Hakeem Jeffries claimed on the House floor that Republicans don’t want children to learn about the Holocaust.
Yet this shameless hypocrite defended notorious anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan!

Dem party hacks have been systematically dodging procedure to improperly obtain military records of GOP candidates.
The goal: weaponize their service against them.

Last week, RFK Jr. made reprehensible anti-semitic and anti-Asian comments aimed at perpetuating harmful and debunked racist tropes. Such dangerous racism and hate have no place in America, demonstrate him to be unfit for public office, and must be condemned.
The “fucking hypocrites” are the ones who lectured everyone about unity and “restoring the soul of America,” then proved it was all a lie after Election Day.
“Fuckers” or “deplorables,” the sentiment is the same.
We will not be lectured by the party that:
-Defunds police
-Lets criminals loose to terrorize families
-Can't bring themselves to honor fallen police officers
Republicans can no longer claim to be the party of public safety with repeated attacks like this on the law enforcement agencies that keep our communities safe
You don’t often read such a devastating indictment of a campaign.
Fetterman and his team lied about his health, tried to change the conversation by trolling with over the top antics, and now clutches their pearls when anyone calls them out.
