BEG ME TO BUY IT

@krystalball Now!! It started in 2000 when we elected W 😔

Our country is so embarrassing now

@osbornforne Yet we hear crickets from Rickets 🤔

“The high cost of fuel, equipment, and fertilizer — compounded by the Iran war — and also tariffs, perceived “price gouging” by suppliers, and low soybean prices driven by a global supply glut. All of it weighs on Bartek, who is chairman of the Nebraska Soybean Association. ‘Our biggest struggles are our inputs, be it fertilizer, seed, chemical, parts,’ Bartek said. ‘There has been so much drastic markup in all of these. And I just kind of feel like the farmer’s kind of painted in the corner.’” apnews.com/article/midwes…

@osbornforne Too late! I already wrote in @osbornforne for US Senate on my mailin ballot ☺️

Here are two things you ought to know about Nebraska’s upcoming primary: -Because I’m an Independent, I won’t appear on your primary ballot. I’ll be on your ballot in November. Please don’t waste your vote writing me in! -If you’re voting in the Democrat primary, please be wary that Ricketts has a GOP stooge planted in the race named William Forbes. Do NOT vote for Fake Forbes!

@osbornforne WOW. These so-called Christian conservatives are vicious. Better get prepared. They fight with knives and guns. Get ready to be accused of being a socialist and Pelosi's best friend.

Pete Ricketts will do anything to win an election. He'll smear people with dishonest mailers. He'll flood the airwaves with lies. He'll funnel his family's dark money through outside groups to destroy candidates he doesn't control. He'll plant fake candidates in the opposing party's primary to split the vote. He'll demand loyalty oaths from elected officials, and when they don't comply, he'll spend a fortune trying to ruin their reputations. He'll even use out-of-state dark money groups to go after moderate Republican farmers who dare disagree with him on taxes. He doesn't just try to win elections. He tries to destroy people. Organizations under his control have been sued for defamation and LOST in court. Here are three candidates who found out the hard way. In 2018, Republican state Senator Laura Ebke was showing free screenings of "It's a Wonderful Life" at small theaters across her district in southeast Nebraska. She had already cleared it with the Nebraska Accountability and Disclosure Commission before doing it, but the NEGOP under Ricketts' control accused her of bribing voters. Ricketts' people sent mailers attacking her every other day. The smear campaign worked. Ebke lost her seat and her reputation was damaged. Despite her storied conservative record (she joined and was endorsed by the Libertarian Party!), Ricketts destroyed her political career for the crime of not voting exactly the way he wanted her to in the Legislature. In 2022, Ricketts funded a PAC that ran vicious attack ads against Republican Matt Williams in a University of Nebraska Board of Regents race. Williams probably voted with Pete 95% of the time in the Legislature, but that 5% was enough for Ricketts to set out to destroy not just Matt's campaign, but his reputation entirely. The ads called Williams a "secret liberal" and claimed he let violent criminals, including pedophiles, out of prison early. Both things were lies. Despite a Board of Regents race typically not drawing major spending, Ricketts dumped more than $314,000 to oust Williams for the crime of voting his conscience on just a few issues that differed with the governor. In 2020, Republican Janet Palmtag was running against Ricketts' preferred candidate for a state legislative seat. The NEGOP, which was under Ricketts' control at the time, sent out mailers saying Palmtag "broke the law," that she was "too irresponsible to keep her license," and that her real estate license had been "revoked." All of it was false. It damaged Palmtag's reputation so much that a jury awarded her $500,000 for defamation. Ricketts is running this same script on me but Nebraskans have seen this show before. The Ricketts family has treated this state like a Monopoly board. This November, Nebraskans have the chance to take our state back.

@osbornforne @WSJ Thank you Mr Osborn for leading the way into these illegal meat companies and shining a light on injustices

GREAT NEWS! The ⁠U.S. ⁠Department of Justice's ⁠antitrust division is CRIMINALLY ​investigating the conduct of large ‌meatpackers, the @WSJ reported today. You wanna know why I talk about consolidation in meatpacking so much? This is why. money.usnews.com/investing/news…

@osbornforne @PaulRieckhoff @indy_americans I cannot wait for November. Denise powell and @osbornforne will both be on all the news winning Nebraska! These dipshits MAGA voters are destroying America

People are paying attention. @PaulRieckhoff from @indy_americans says Nebraska is different now and we've got a real shot. He's right. Let's get to work.

@JoJoFromJerz Art of the pedo rapist adulterer felon

Art of the deal folks.

@osbornforne I hate to say this. Some of them deserve it. Wake up Americans. Stop voting for empty suit corporate agents. Especially Republicans. They lie every election cycle. And we continue to believe it.

I talk to people all over Nebraska who are working harder than their parents ever did and have less to show for it. That's not laziness. That's a system that was deliberately tilted against them.

@osbornforne Thank you to all first responders and dispatchers

When you dial 911, there's a person on the other end who has to be calm when you can't be. These men and women are the first first responders. They miss holidays. They miss weekends. Most people never think about them until we need them. This week we honor these first first responders for National Telecommunicators Week. Dispatchers read these posts too! If one has ever been there for you, feel free to share it below. :)

@JoJoFromJerz Notice she was looking away and didn't have her hands on his hips 😭

Eww fucking ewwwwww 🤢

@MAGANEWS_X E

Simple poll. Please be honest! As of today, how much do you still trust this team? A. 100% B. 75% C. 50% D. 25% E. 0%

@Xking332 It's really nobody's business what another country does.

Horror in Dubai. A 24 year old American female airline worker in Dubai has been arrested. Dubai police installed a surveillance tool on her phone. Without her consent. They found her sharing an image of a burning building with her mother. So they set a trap. They pretended to be her office staff and called her in for a meeting yesterday. When she arrived, she was arrested. 2 years in jail. That spying tool is installed on every foreigner's device in Dubai. That means the Dubai Police are watching everything foreigners send to their families. Every message. Every photo. Every video. Including the most intimate moments. Dubai has denied her a lawyer.

@RogerMarshallMD What?!!! That's crazy. Know wonder these billionaires can afford to buy our politicians

Today, Americans will spend $58,226,000 on swipe fees at the pump.

@osbornforne More debate ammunition unless Petey pulls a Pillen

Someone asked Grok to fact check all the claims I made about Ricketts’ record. Grok said all of them were true.

@osbornforne These billionaires are very powerful.

The lies and smears are already starting in this Senate race. And it's no surprise why. Pete Ricketts has built his political career using dirty tricks and boss tactics. Here's his record: - Organizations under his control sued for defamation for unethical campaign tactics. $500,000 settlement. -Publicly demanded Nebraska legislators swear loyalty to him. Called out anyone who wouldn't as not a "real Republican." -Used his money to intimidate legislators with well-funded pressure campaigns. -Funded a mailer falsely claiming a Republican state senator let pedophiles out of prison early because he voted differently than Ricketts in the legislature. -Funded his hand-picked successor's campaign for governor, then had that same successor appoint him to the U.S. Senate. (Shocker!) -Family founded and ran two dark money groups that spent over $45 million in the 2016 election alone. -Has done everything to obstruct medical cannabis despite 71% of Nebraska voters approving it. -Voted for a federal school voucher scheme despite Nebraska voters rejecting them at the ballot box.

@JoJoFromJerz And for whatever reason only known to her, she continues to lie for the above mentioned adjudicated rapist.

She took a job as the mouthpiece for an adjudicated rapist who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy.

@osbornforne What's even more shocking is people who are struggling will vote for him. It's insane and exactly why this country is being destroyed from within. Wake up Americans. Thank you Fox News and Rupert Murdock

If you want to see how clueless and disconnected Pete Ricketts is, just go look at what he posted to his social media today. He thinks everybody is doing great right now. Here’s the real data: 🧵

@electionsjoe I'm sure the governor with 100 words in his vocabulary will instruct his puppet AG to do everything possible to delay and dismiss

THEY FOUND WHAT?

@osbornforne MAGA voters need to wake up and stop being scammed by billionaires to vote for an empty suit corporate agent who represents billionaire donors.

Today is tax day. Remember this: Billionaire Pete Ricketts voted to give himself a MASSIVE tax cut by gutting our healthcare. Now, Nebraska rural hospitals are closing while Ricketts’ and his donors count their cash. Here’s a story about the consequences that stuck with me. 🧵

@JoJoFromJerz Hypocrisy deluxe. These dumbass low IQ MAGA POS are destroying not only American but this planet!!

It’s hilarious to me that the MAGA shidiots think it’s some kind of “own” to point out that many of us supported Swalwell before we knew about the allegations of sexual abuse, when they didn’t stop supporting Trump after he was found liable of sexual abuse.
