Marcy Kaptur, a Veteran Democrat, Breaks with Biden in New TV Ad

New York Times

Representative Marcy Kaptur of Ohio, the second-most tenured woman in congressional history, has released a new television ad explicitly breaking with President Biden, the most prominent Democrat to do so, as she seeks re-election in a Toledo-area seat that was redrawn to be sharply more Republican.

Ms. Kaptur, who was first elected in 1982, criticized Mr. Biden in the ad over “letting Ohio solar manufacturers be undercut by China” and ended it with an attempt to cast her identity as independent from his.

“Marcy Kaptur: She doesn’t work for Joe Biden; she works for you,” the ad concludes. “I’m Marcy Kaptur and I approve this message.”

The remapping of districts in Ohio made Ms. Kaptur’s seat substantially more red this year by taking away parts of the Cleveland suburbs and exchanging them for a western swath of the state that reaches toward the Indiana border. The result turned the district from one that Mr. Biden easily won in 2020 to one that former President Donald J. Trump would have carried that year.

Friends, Rudy Giuliani needs YOUR HELP!

From: THE RUDY GIULIANI FREEDOM FUND (email)

[image of Trump and Giuliani with raised fists -- clearly not photographed together]

One week after the FBI raided President Trump’s home, the New York Times reported that I’m the target of a criminal investigation as President Trump’s personal lawyer.

Here’s what they’re saying:

Of all the legal threats Rudy Giuliani faces, the criminal inquiry into efforts to reverse thew 2020 Georgia election may be the most dire


You may recall that I received a subpoena in this legal battle while recovering from heart surgery last month.

The Left truly wants to RUIN President Trump and his closest confidantes like me.
Nothing would make them happier than to destroy President Trump’s personal lawyer. But with your sustained support, it will NEVER happen.

Please make a contribution to my Legal Defense Trust as the battle rages on for my freedom and justice.


CONTRIBUTE $25

CONTRIBUTE $50

CONTRIBUTE $75

CONTRIBUTE $100

CONTRIBUTE $250

CONTRIBUTE OTHER AMOUNT

Here’s more from the New York Times:

It’s amazing how many left-wing radicals have gotten away with their crimes…
BLM burned down buildings and killed cops. Were they targeted? Nope.
Antifa vandalized cities across America. Were they targeted? Nope.
In fact, George Soros is installing prosecutors who let known criminals off the hook!
But the lawyer who defended President Trump is getting SKEWERED.

As President Trump knows, I willingly enlisted in this fight – and I’m sure as hell not shying away now:

But my willingness to fight is only half the battle. I also depend on YOUR support as the Left tries to ruin me personally, professionally, and financially.

So please, make a contribution to my Legal Defense Trust as the battle rages on for my freedom and justice.
Thank you,

Trump advisers call out Kimberly Guilfoyle as one of the biggest 'grifters'

Raw Story

Donald Trump doesn't like when other people use his name to cash in, but so far he doesn't seem to mind his eldest son's fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle trading on her "access and proximity" to him.

The former president's allies and advisers spoke off the record to The Daily Beast about the "grifters" who "disproportionately enriched themselves" during the Trump presidency, and some of those sources cast aspersion at Guilfoyle, a former Fox News host who's engaged to Donald Trump Jr.

“The president is very fond of her,” said one source close to Trump.

But other sources accuse her of trading on her "access and proximity" to get luxury clothing and other perks, as well as suspiciously high payments for her political work.

Nearly half of college students wouldn't room with someone who votes differently

https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/first-read/new-political-divide-nearly-half-college-students-wouldnt-room-someone-rcna43609

Almost half of second-year college students say they wouldn’t choose to be roommates with someone who supported a different presidential candidate than they did in 2020.

A majority say they wouldn't go on a date with someone who voted differently, and nearly two-thirds of them say they couldn’t see themselves marrying someone who backed a different presidential candidate two years ago.

Those are the findings of a new online NBC News/Generation Lab poll of the class of 2025 as they begin their second year of college.

A year ago, NBC News and Generation Lab checked in with the class of 2025 — as they were starting their first year of college — and found they were optimistic about their futures, less optimistic about the country’s direction and experiencing anxiety and depression.

One year later, those students remain optimistic about their personal lives, they continue to be down on the country’s direction, and many of them still experience anxiety and depression.
