Okay, Acton might actually have the sauce. She’s been surprisingly cut throat in a way I didn’t expect.
This is the second time in just a few months that our account has been censored for simply mentioning my opponent. So just in case my account gets censored or deleted again, here’s your reminder that Vivek Ramaswamy called Ohio workers lazy while he flies around our state on a

Mississippi Dems recently broke the state Senate GOP supermajority with their special election wins. This is also helped by one last ancestral conservadem in Northeast Mississippi, Hob Bryan in the 7th who won in 2023. He is the MS Democrat representing a majority white seat.

N.J. Attorney General Matt Platkin comes out against legislation that would strip the state comptroller of much of its power and move it under the State Commission of Investigation:
This Thanksgiving, the NJ Senate is killing a gov’t watchdog that stops wasteful spending, giving politically powerful individuals broad powers to intimidate law enforcement fighting corruption & even letting them tap phones. Outrageous. I’ll be testifying against it on Mon.

Damn right it's on! I'm running unbought and unbossed to fight for our democracy and deliver for the people of New Jersey. We're going to hold Trump accountable for his corruption and un-rig the economy so it works for working people. https://t.co/xfDOFwSGfs

This is the second time that Dr. Acton’s Twitter has been moderated for routine criticism of Ramaswamy. She got suspended for calling him out about his Epstein Files silence, and now a “hateful conduct” strike for… posting a video of his own words? Huh?
Amy Acton’s post criticizing Vivek Ramaswamy has been restricted by Twitter/X over “hateful conduct”

Republicans are currently accusing OH Dem gov candidate Amy Acton of posting an AI video of Vivek Ramaswamy suggesting year-round school for kids. One big problem: the video is real and was up for hours on TikTok before that portion was edited out. We have the original here.
If you’re a candidate and you share AI-altered videos of another candidate and pass it off as reality, you should be fined a lot of money.
