Unfortunately for Republicans, the situation is very easy to describe: 1. Trump won a cost-of-living election 2. Then he publicly announced a plan to raise the price of imports 3. Then he even-more-publicly started a war that raised the price of gas 4. Meanwhile, he got rich on crypto scams, while engaging in downright Pynchonian misadventures with the reflecting pool and ballroom, which sent the unmistakeable signal that "I care more about random bullshit than America's money problems ... and also I'm not even good at executing on the random bullshit"
For the midterms, I think corruption/self-dealing is issue 1b behind cost of living as 1a. It's not just that people feel things are unaffordable for themselves, they think those in power are helping rich friends get richer. From our latest "America in Focus" focus group...
@DFANewHaven How could anyone pass this test? youtube.com/watch?v=Rk3lcE…
Did this work
FREEDOM FUEL HAS ARRIVED. ⛽️🇺🇸 The FIRST Freedom Fuel Network gas station has LANDED in Philadelphia, lowering the price at the pump to $3.47 for our 47th President. President Trump is leading the charge to lower gas prices this summer - putting more money in your pocket. 🔥
He obtained a 🇬🇷 passport back in March and federal prosecutors didn't even ask the court to seize it or make him wear an ankle monitor? He bought ✈️ tix in MAY and nobody did anything about it? Were they waiting for him to buy giant billboards saying "I'm going on the lam?"
Outrageous. Send him back to face justice @GreeceinNewYork @GreeceInUSA
#BREAKING Kosta Diamantis has skipped the country and fled to Greece instead of attending his bribery sentencing (Diamantis applied for a Greek passport before his trial) Prosecutors say he took a boat from Florida to the Bahamas and then flew to London
Impressive. No notes.
Brooke Rollins: "There is more beef being consumed today than ever before. The price remains where the price is, but people keep buying it. Normally you have a price go up and demand goes down, but it's the opposite. $6.50 for a pound of ground beef, which by the way is less than
That's a lot of speakers to spin an economic disaster! Since Trump was elected: - gas prices are up 33% - over 100,000 manufacturing jobs lost - 21% jump in those without health insurance - tariffs costing every family $1,100 a year - student loan delinquency up 20%
RNC announces midterm convention speakers:

They're powered by vibes?
"They don't take energy," Trump falsely says of data centers, "because, you know, the new ones that I approved, they all create their own energy." Most planned projects do not intend to use behind-the-meter generation.
Heating oil is near an all-time high but hey you can play Border Czar Tom Homan in a video game. #outoftouch

When Connecticut Children's signed a secret deal with the Trump Department of Justice, they betrayed their own patients - and they may be violating state law.
Forget work requirements for SNAP and Medicaid recipients, we need work requirements for Republican Congressmen.
BREAKING: HOUSE LEADERSHIP is canceling the last two weeks of September. House will be out.
Single Payee Health Care?
Connecticut’s first proton therapy center is officially open in Wallingford. This unprecedented partnership between @ynhhealth and @Hartford_Health is bringing one of the world’s most advanced forms of radiation therapy right here to Connecticut!
Trump spent July bragging about Freedom Fuel. The stations sold gas at $3.47 a gallon, and he called the owners patriotic retailers who were doing it because they love the U.S.A. The White House even posted a video of people thanking him at the pump. Everybody in the industry asked the same question. How do you sell forty cents under market after Iran spiked prices and still keep the lights on? A supplier just filed what looks like the answer. Mansfield Oil says a New Jersey company called KRSM, run by Syed Kazmi, lifted more than a million gallons off its account at a Pennsylvania terminal between late May and early July. That load was worth about $4 million. Then KRSM did not pay. Mansfield’s lawyer says some of that fuel went to at least ten stations listed on Freedom Fuel’s own website. The lawsuit puts it this way: “KRSM was able to sell such fuel for such low prices and garner such publicity because it never paid Plaintiff for such fuel.” Kazmi says it is an invoice dispute. That would be easier to believe if the same family did not already have a default judgment for taking hundreds of thousands of gallons from another supplier and failing to pay that bill too. The White House says it had zero contact with Kazmi. Fine. They still put the presidential seal on a $3.47 stunt nobody could explain, then acted surprised when the wholesale invoice came due unpaid. You do not need a conspiracy for this. You need a credit account and a Truth Social post. Cheap gas is easy when somebody else is holding the invoice.
We have achieved a new milestone with the Concierge Apartments in Rocky Hill. A third party administrator will ensure that needed upgrades to the facility are performed.
Nancy Wyman passed away this morning. Many in politics will remember her for her enormous, generous personality. And those red high heels. 1/ But she was so much more. I want to share a story that few know: how Nancy Wyman saved the Affordable Care Act.
Thank you, Senator Matt Lesser! Let’s bring this home for Connecticut, our communities, and every family across the First District.
