Funny how as times get tougher the Republicans are calling for working people to sacrifice meals and trips to Starbucks while cutting food benefits, healthcare, and public education but not asking for the rich to skip luxury vacations, yachts, and 5th homes while giving them more tax breaks. It’s almost like they are diverting our attention while looting our government.

Charles Barkley on CBS tonight: “The way some of these immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace. What we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants is really unfortunate and really sad.” Charles Barkley is not a politician. Not an activist. Not a Democrat. He is one of the most beloved sports figures in American history saying this on national television.

This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).

Schools were not forcing kids to have transgender surgery. Babies were not being aborted after they were born. Migrants were not crossing the border to vote for Kamala Harris. Donald Trump is a pathological liar and, if you believed this shit, you are a pathological dumbass.

this is not a joke

Trump is suspending sanctions on Iran and Russia, which will put over $15 billion in their treasuries to help them fund the wars against us. It’s stunning. We have never ever seen this level of war incompetence in American history.

There aren't nearly enough people who remember and appreciate that President Biden added 2.2 million jobs to the economy in his last year, while trump only added 185,000 during his first year, in 2025. We were BETTER under Biden. RT TO SPREAD THE WORD.

Draft-dodger saying this about a Vietnam combat vet and career public servant. Despicable and disqualifying in any other decade.

Obama walked into a full-blown economic disaster and didn’t spend every day crying about the last guy…he got to work and cleaned it up. MAGAs can’t go five minutes without blaming everyone else for everything. That’s the difference: leadership vs. nonstop whining.

Republicans control all 3 branches of government. Democrats introduced 7 bills to fund TSA. Each one was blocked by Republicans.

The maximum an individual can legally donate to a candidate in an election is $3300. Elon donated $277M to Trump in 2024 because of loopholes rich people use to buy elections. If you care about election integrity — overturn Citizens United so our elections aren’t auctions.

Imagine if Biden or Obama sent mass emails to donors promising to let them in national security briefings in exchange for cash. How the fuck is this traitorous psychopath still president? 😳👇

I have one question for the Republican Party today. Where is your backbone? Thune. McConnell. All of them. Where are you? Mitch McConnell is 84 years old. He has nothing left to lose. No more elections to win. No more favors to collect. No more political future to protect. And he can’t stand up and say this is not what the United States of America stands for? George Washington is literally on the wall behind you people. The man who voluntarily gave up power when he could have kept it forever. The man who warned us — in his farewell address — about exactly this kind of person. And you can’t find the words? We have removal procedures in this country for a reason. The founders didn’t put them there for decoration. They put them there because they had read enough history to know that men like this would eventually come. They built the exit door. All you have to do is use it. But instead Thune shuffles his papers. McConnell stares at the floor. And the rest of them calculate their primary margins and call it leadership. This isn’t complicated. This is a spine test. And the Republican Party is failing it in real time.

I am a Christian, and I have two daughters. Both my daughters attend public school. When my daughters were old enough to go to school I felt so much pressure from the Christian culture to homeschool them. I went to public school and had a really good experience, but everyone was treating public school like it was the devils playground. I tried to homeschool my oldest in preschool and I realized how terribly unequipped I was to teach. I didn’t have the discipline, nor the mental capacity to teach from home. I think public school is great. The teachers are all so intentional, the school counselors are lovely, and their principal remembers their names and things about them. We are very involved parents. We go on field trips, take them to school events, and go to all their conferences. Honestly, public school gets way too much hate.

They warned everyone. They warned everyone. They warned everyone.

Somehow Republicans won the presidency, House, and Senate without the SAVE Act. Yet somehow they will never win again without it? All this while advocates cannot produce any credible evidence of mass voter fraud that is supposedly making it impossible for Republicans to win.

Oklahomans are tired of being pitted against each other while politicians focus on protecting their own power. When we're busy demonizing each other, we stop talking about what actually matters: the cost of groceries, strengthening our public schools, access to affordable healthcare, and the reality that too many Oklahomans are working two or three jobs and still struggling to pay the rent. As governor, I'll bring the focus back to the people of Oklahoma. That means working to lower everyday costs, strengthen our public schools, expand access to affordable healthcare, and make sure hard work actually pays off for Oklahoma families.

Rand Paul just did the math on the border wall live on the Senate floor. $6-8 million per mile. 1,000 miles needed. Total cost: $6-8 billion. They asked for $45 billion. That’s $37 billion unaccounted for. This is the same administration sealing the Epstein files. Hiding wounded soldiers from their families. Lying about dead schoolgirls. Launching a war on “a feeling.” And now $37 billion in border wall funding nobody can explain. Where did it go? Rand Paul wants an answer. So do you.

Grocery prices are still too high. Oklahoma families know it because they feel it every single week at the checkout line. That’s why I introduced a bill this session focused on protecting consumers and lowering costs for everyday Oklahomans. My bill—HB3959–would have banned large corporations from using surveillance pricing through a new technology known as electronic shelf labeling. This type of technology not only eliminates jobs, but allows for prices to be changed in a matter of ten seconds. Surveillance pricing is a practice to determine the price you pay on groceries based on your personal data and consumer behavior, not the supply or demand of products.  I don’t know about you, but I believe Oklahomans should pay the same price on grocery items regardless of who you are or where you live in our state. Corporations aren’t concerned about Oklahomans being able to afford basic necessities like groceries, but they are concerned about their bottom line and putting profits over people. This was a practical, commonsense step to protect Oklahoma families and lower costs. As a lawmaker and future Governor, I can’t control the price of bread, eggs, or milk, but I can stand up to corporations exploiting Oklahomans.  Unfortunately, Republicans refused to hear my bill in committee. Many politicians say they stand with working families. But when they had the chance to act and protect Oklahoma families from corporate price manipulation, they chose to side with corporations instead. I believe Oklahomans deserve a leader who actually fights for everyday people–now and in the future. That means understanding what everyday people are facing and being laser-focused on solutions that make life more affordable. We can–and should–hold corporations accountable, especially when it comes to a basic necessity like our groceries.  As Governor, I will always stand up to corporate price gouging and fight to lower costs for Oklahoma families. Oklahomans should not be paying the price for corporate greed.

Gavin Newsom: “Wake up, America. If he rigs this election, you won’t have a country. You’ll have a president running for a third term.” Connect the dots: The domestic response force deploys in April. The Epstein files are being resealed behind new investigations. The White House blocked terror warnings to law enforcement. 357 members of Congress voted to hide their own sexual misconduct records. The draft is on the table. The Speaker does whatever Trump tells him to do — Massie said it on camera. A war started the week the files dropped. Newsom isn’t being dramatic. He’s describing a playbook that’s already in motion. November 2026 may be the last election that actually matters. Pay attention.
