Good news article from Greg Sargent at The New Republic:

Most people think Democrats will take the House in 2026, but Trumpâ€™s dismal economic policies, forever wars and draconian policies could make the victory truly historic

Plus-Dems have real opportunities to pick up Senate seats in North Carolina, Maine, Ohio, Texas-and even Iowa

Paxton is already trying to disenfranchise Hispanic voters. They're trying to use the USPS to limit mail ballots and disenfranchise people who can't vote in person. There is a complete lack of integrity in this party that Trump has helped turned into a bunch of whining, cheating crooks.

The American Meat Producers Assn. has been running an anti-Marshall TV ad for over 2 months now. Can't
remember which program I was watching but I seen their ad 6 times in that hour and they have it on
all hours of the day plus on every station that broadcasts in KS.

We have some fantastic help there we should take advantage of especially since Marshall is one of the
worst MAGA Senators there is. My red town is turning anti-trumpie!
