Far be it from me to give a Republican advice, but until you change these two words to instead say “serving the people,” expect to lose in perpetuity, and deservedly so.
Nope. But that’s not what I’m doing. I’ve been working for years within the Party emphasizing the need to build infrastructure and focus on beating Democrats. When the Party’s response to a nuclear apocalypse level defeat is to release nonsensical AI-generated public statements, they deserve to be called out. Ignoring incompetence is not an option for me. I’m open to your suggestions on what you think would be most productive (and I agree just tweeting isn’t the answer, but can assure you I am not just sitting behind a keyboard). It’s going to take all hands to fix this mess.

Jimmy Kimmel - “You are on the ballot, you are like dog hair, all over everything..” His opening tonight was hilarious:
Typical GOP reaction.
Ok when red but not for blue
🚨 I call on Gov. Abbott to IMMEDIATELY convene a special session to REIN IN EXECUTIVE EMERGENCY POWERS… before Gina Hinojosa is sworn in!
Republicans lost last night, but Democrats were not sworn in.
We still have total power in Texas, and we must act like it by using the remaining ten weeks to restore separation of powers and limit the emergency powers that Governor-Elect Hinojosa is set to inherit, which would allow her to destroy liberty in Texas by executive fiat.
I’ve warned since I was first elected that NO governor, Republican or Democrat, should have unchecked emergency powers!
Now that Texas has elected a Democrat Governor, the urgency is undeniable… and inaction is intolerable.
Without action, Governor Hinojosa will inherit the powers of a DICTATOR.
Due to the absurd (and almost certainly unconstitutional) Texas emergency powers laws, Gov. Hinojosa will literally have the power to modify laws, ignore laws, or create and enforce laws – including criminal laws – on a whim!
Today is a day for ACTION, and bold leadership.
The Texas Legislature must immediately pass, and Governor Abbott must sign, legislation like HB911, which I filed in 2022 and warned at the time, that “Never ending emergency powers are antithetical to representative government and render people powerless. Legislative bodies allowing a single executive branch official to both write and enforce laws is the biggest threat to our constitutional system of divided government and should be opposed irrespective of which political party runs the executive branch.”
My legislation would protect liberty from executive fiat by, among other things, taking the following actions:
1. Prohibit the Governor from suspending or modifying statutes
2. Sunset emergency orders in 30 days if the legislature does not ratify the order
3. Prohibit the governor from reissuing emergency orders that expired or the legislature rejected
4. Require emergency orders to be narrowly tailored
5. Subject emergency orders to expedited judicial review
We have TEN WEEKS LEFT to protect Texas from near total Democrat rule.
I encourage every elected Republican in Texas to join my demand for Gov. Abbott to call a special session.
The future of liberty in America is literally on the line in Texas, and Texans deserve leadership that acts accordingly.

If it weren't for white supremacy, bigotry, and racism, Trump-Republicans would have no platform to run on. In 2026, hate and pedophile protection are the Republican Party's entire identity.
For all intents and purposes, the 2026 MAGA-GOP is the Nazi Party of 1938.
They are identical populist hate movements hellbent on scamming an ignorant and gullible populace looking for a scapegoat for their own self-inflicted misery.
The only difference is this time there is a segment of Jewish people who are helping to fuel the hate — which is the saddest, most infuriating, yet heartbreaking part of America's descent into fascism.

Someone told me to "vote according to Biblical values!"
So I voted for welcoming immigrants, helping the poor, feeding the hungry, bringing healthcare to the sick, forgiving debts, caring for our planet, laying down our swords, and loving all our neighbors.

Closing messages from Republicans today:
1. Please, we beg you, give us more time.
2. Look at this reflecting pool photo.
3. We are bad, but Dems are worse!
4. We know you’re struggling, but have you considered transgender athletes?
5. The economy is great. Stop complaining.
6. Everything is Biden’s fault.
7. Please ignore the corruption.
8. The polls are fake unless we’re winning.
Inspiring stuff!

I got in this race for of my kids — because when I look back on this era in our nation, I want them to know that their mom did everything in her power to stand up and lead.

The name "Dan Sullivan" showing up twice on the Alaska ballot doesn't bother me.
The name "Donald Trump" appearing in the Epstein files THOUSANDS of times does.
Vote @AnnieAndrewsMD
2008: GOP still had some morals keeping bigotry and racism as fringe.
2026: every GOP from Pres to VP and all politicians openly calling a man BORN IN MICHIGAN not “American” enough.
GOP has no moral compass and should be nowhere in Govt.
Vote every one of them out!
GOP are not serious people and incapable of governing
Obama tonight on his Cheesecake Factory line: "They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke. The White House even called the Secretary of the Treasury. This is the man who is in charge of the economy. The person who's supposed to be figuring out how to make your life more affordable. The guy who's supposed to be figuring out how to lower inflation. And reduce interest rates. They told him he should hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory."
