Many eyes are on the Mississippi Senate race after Trump’s visit. (Which I don’t think is as close as many Dems would hope.) But most media are not even recognizing that there is also an independent vet in that race. @typinkins.bsky.social isn’t putting up big numbers…
but he is a candidate of integrity and independence that could be a factor. @indyvetsofamerica.bsky.social was proud to endorse him: independentveteransofamerica.org/candidates/t...
And see the @indyvetsofamerica.bsky.social Data Lab candidate tracker for the latest polling on all the independent vets we’ve endorsed: independentveteransofamerica.org/polls/ Because their opponents (and most media) don’t even acknowledge them.🗳️🇺🇸🐺

Today’s new show. One week to go!
The Democrats don't have a messaging problem. They have a closer problem. One week out and the only person on their bench who can actually move independents is a guy who left office nine years ago. That's not Obama's fault. That's a party that never… https://goindy.us

This week: Trump is a bigger threat to our elections than Russia or China. He doesn’t speak for most Americans on Ukraine. A fleet run into the deck by both parties. Putin is no humanitarian. Osborn on the country club.

The "honest liar" defense is officially dead. For a decade Trump's shield was that he was too rich to be bought. Fox News now says corruption is the #1 issue in America — and a quarter of Republicans say he's enriching himself in office. That's not a… https://goindy.us

I LOVE this new pod series from the @NYTimes Metro desk and @Serial: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...
“METRO with Sarah Koenig” brings listeners investigations, personal stories, essays and interviews about New York City and the people who call the city home: New Yorkers. This diamond district episode is fantastic. If you don’t know, now you know.🗽💎🎧

I’ve long warned that Trump would attack the elections. apnews.com/article/alas... He’s been telegraphing his punches for months. He knows that free and fair elections are the single biggest threat to his power. And therefore he will attack them. Alaska is probably just the start.🚨🇺🇸
