Guess what, Florida? Ron DeSantis took $15 million from an emergency fund and spent it on shipping immigrants out of state. That's $15 million that victims of Hurricanes Helene and Milton will never see. https://www.tampabay.com/news/florida-politics/2023/07/14/desantis-immigration-cost-emergency-fund-border-keys/

It’s legal bc it isn’t a candidate doing it or their representatives.

It’s targets at dems….and if a republican does this then it’s on brand.

US adds a robust 254,000 jobs and unemployment dips to 4.1% in sign of still-sturdy labor market

MSM needs to STOP listening to Right Wing Talking points.

“Employers added 254,000 jobs in September, blowing away forecasts and reversing a slowdown in hiring that had prompted the Federal Reserve to make a jumbo rate cut at its meeting last month.”

Oh, and more good news: “U.S. could be headed for a so-called ‘soft landing,’ with the Fed's prior rate hikes having helped to cool the economy”

How many recessions under Biden? Zero. Not so with Trump.

Both sides can say their candidate won.
Vance did very well, if you’re a voter that’s just tuning in to who is running.
Walz wasn’t as smooth but he won on facts.
Walz wins on vision.
The most interesting takeaway I have is that Walz & Vance made each other more likable. They were friendly.
That civility on stage tonight does Trump no favors. He’s now the freak out of the 4 candidates.
For fuck’s sake, Vance ended with “America is beautiful”. Not “going to hell”.

If I have a choice between trusting #JDVance or Little Miss Attitude when it comes to #January6th and the “peaceful” transfer of power from #Trump to #Biden, the dog wins every time. Little Miss Attitude watched the inauguration with us. The days leading up to it were filled with tension. The Capitol was surrounded with a massive police presence. Only when Biden had taken the oath of office could we let our guard down just a bit. So quit gaslighting us, JD. We saw it for ourselves. #Politics

After watching clip after clip of Vance talking about what he really believes vs that slick nonsense he was peddling last night I get the feeling he's possibly one of the more dangerous creatures we've come across. #politics

@Dogofalltrees

It was okay. Not as fun as Harris v Trump.

Vance was mad he got fact checked. Tried hard to prove he was human.

He failed.

If people started complimenting Vance's debate performance by comparing him favorably with Trump, Trump would lose his mind.

@AlphaCentauri I think Vance looked way better than Trump. Trump better stay away from windows and invest in a food-taster.

@Gambit_1 Don't worry, Caroline dear. I'm living proof that you can survive _any_ sort of daddy issue.

I mean... yours is arguably worse, but still!
