Despite one damning report after another exposing Nazi-lover and alleged rapist Graham Platner as sick, morally depraved, and unfit to serve, Nepo Baby Stefany Shaheen was so determined to defend him and avoid the question that she had a staffer attack a questioner with a donut.
Here's a reminder of what Shaheen defended:
* Platner's Nazi tattoo that he repeatedly lied about.
* The ex-girlfriend who said he "twistedher arm behind her back."
* Blaming rape victims.
* His profile on an app known as a "predator's paradise."
* His habit of pleasuring himself in porta-pottys.
* The "sexually explicit texts with several women" his wife found on his phone.
And sadly, that's just to name a few.
"Nepo Baby Stefany Shaheen's support of Graham Platner, despite endless reports of his despicable behavior, is disgusting, wrong, and disqualifying. Granite Staters will hold Shaheen accountable for her appalling judgment. To support Platner, Shaheen has to be as sick as he is." - NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O'Toole

Dem Candidate Tied to Revolutionary Org That Pushes Sex Ed on Kindergarteners
Daily Wire
Leif Le Mahieu
July 8, 2026
A Democrat running for Congress in Nebraska is tied to a leftist organization that pushes for "universal sex education" and wants elementary school kids to learn about "gender identity" and "sexual orientation."
Denise Powell, running in the highly competitive race for Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District, has been a board member for EducateUS, an activist organization critical of parental rights that wants to push so-called "progressive" sex education into classrooms across the country, including for kindergartners. Powell's LinkedIn and candidate disclosure form lists her as a board member of the organization, which says it is for people who want to "dance at the revolution."
[...]
The sex ed standards pushed by EducateUS include ensuring that 5th graders learn about "gender identity and expression" and "the basics of sexual orientation" and teaching high schoolers about "abortion access," how racism impacts their views of sexuality, and proper condom use.
"If you care about LGBTQ+ liberation, about ending gender-based violence, child abuse, and white supremacy, if you want to dance at the revolution, the fight for sex ed is for you," EducateUS says on its website.
The group says that it believes "universal sex education" can "change the world" and wants a "complete transformation" of K-12 public sex education. It says it is working with "anti-racist, feminist, and pro-LGBTQ liberation organizing forces" because "our causes are one and the same at the root."
[...]
The group offers free training for candidates who "supports sex education, LGBTQ+ student rights, and inclusive, affirming schools for all students" and who are being attacked as a "groomer or indoctrinator." The consulting gives candidates guidance on topics like "opposing book bans," "stopping 'parental rights' overreach," and "bathroom access."

As self-serving Henry Cuellar tries to move past his own corruption scandal, his brother, longtime Webb County Sheriff Martin Cuellar, is facing his day in court as efforts are underway to remove him from office.
The case puts a fresh spotlight on the Cuellar family culture of corruption that has treated public office like a family business.
The latest legal trouble surrounding Martin Cuellar proves the Cuellar family's culture of corruption neverended with Henry Cuellar, especially after Henry's campaign bankrolled his brother's sheriff campaign with more than $8,000.
"The latest legal trouble surrounding Henry Cuellar's family proves one thing: the scandals didn't end with Henry, they simply moved down the family tree. The Cuellar family's culture of corruption has turned South Texas into a case study of what happens when one self-serving family holds power for too long." - NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez

Lazy lil' Jared Moskowitz, who has never so much as passed a bill since coming to Congress, was caught taking a victory lap on critical funding that he tried to block.
Moskowitz had the audacity to do a photo-op with a fake check and brag about $2M in federal funding that he admitted was critical for first responders... even though he voted AGAINST the bill that delivered the funding.

[...]
Just last week, Moskowitz posed with a large ceremonial check touting the funding for the Jeffrey Street Rail Crossing project in his district. The congressman has publicly acknowledged the project's importance, stating it would provide "faster routes for our first responders" and ensure the community is "no longer cut off from itself."
Yet records show Moskowitz voted against the funding. Critics say his opposition stemmed from his support for prioritizing federal immigration enforcement funding cuts over delivering for his constituents.
[...]
"Least Effective Florida Democrat Jared Moskowitz is a useless liar who is more interested in wasting taxpayer dollars on photo ops and fake checks than actually delivering for his constituents. This dishonest behavior is exactly why Floridians are fed up with him and will send him packing in November," NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O'Toole said.
Moskowitz, who represents parts of Broward and Palm Beach counties, has drawn repeated criticism from Florida Republicans for what they describe as prioritizing national Democratic priorities over local needs.

A new fact check from Cleveland.com reveals how Vivek Ramaswamy and his allies are lying about Dr. Amy Acton's leadership as Ohio's Health Director under Gov. Mike DeWine, while highlighting how Ramaswamy tried to profit off of the COVID-19 pandemic and pushed extreme ideas like a "national registry to segregate" Americans based on their immunity.
The report also notes that rather than stand by his own record,Ramaswamy later paid someone to scrub references to his COVID work from his Wikipedia page -- reminding voters yet again why he can't be trusted to look out for anyone but himself.
"Why should Ohioans believe a single word Vivek Ramaswamy says when he and his allies continue to push repeatedly-debunked lies and attempt to paper over his calls to 'segregate the population' and his efforts to line his pockets from the COVID-19 pandemic?" said DGA spokesperson Izzi Levy. "Ohio families deserve a governor who will put them first, not a scammer who proves at every turn that there's nothing he won't say or do to make a buck -- even if it means lying to Ohioans and throwing them under the bus."

* Republican gubernatorial nominee Vivek Ramaswamy and his allies are airing attack ads excoriating Democratic opponent Amy Acton over her high-profile role in Ohio's COVID-19 policies as state health director.
* The ads also don't mention that the Columbus-area entrepreneur advocated during the coronavirus crisis for measures like a national immunity registry, nor that he was an adviser on COVID issues to then-Lt. Gov. Jon Husted.
* The first ad, which Ramaswamy's campaign began airing in March as it kicked off a $10 million TV ad campaign, asserts that "Amy Acton called off Ohio's election at the last minute, defying a judge's orders and abusing her power."
* But while Acton signed the order, the decision to call off the March 17 primary - which ended up being held April 28 - was made by top Republican statewide elected officials, including Gov. Mike DeWine and Secretary of State Frank LaRose, with help from then-Lt. Gov. Jon Husted and then-Attorney General Dave Yost.
* Ramaswamy, meanwhile, stated in a 2021 op-ed that he served in 2020 as an informal COVID adviser to Republican Jon Husted, now a U.S. senator running to keep his seat this fall.
* At the time, Ramaswamy was CEO of Roivant Sciences, a New York-based biotech firm that was developing a potential COVID-19 treatment called gimsilumab (which was ultimately found to show no significant benefit). Roivant disclosures show it spent $70,000 on lobbying the federal government in 2020 and early 2021 on issues related to COVID 19 drug development and approval.
* During an April 2020 podcast appearance, Ramaswamy called for mandatory antibody testing, then creating a national registry to segregate those who either already had coronavirus or had a natural immunity so they can "go back to normal life" without having to follow COVID rules.
* Ramaswamy left Roivant in early 2023 to focus on his presidential campaign. A Wikipedia editor later stated that Ramaswamy paid him to remove a reference to his service on Ohio's "COVID-19 Response Team" from his Wikipedia page.

Corruption Watch: Trump Administration Proposes New Rule Targeting Gun Companies that Will Increase Trump Family Wealth
"Amazon of guns" company that Donald Trump Jr. is a shareholder and board member of could make millions under new proposed firearm rule
-
According to new reporting, Donald Trump Jr.'s online firearms retailer GrabAGun is set to reap millions of dollars from a proposed rule change from his dad's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives that would allowlicensed dealers to ship firearms directly to people's homes. An estimated 3 million people per year - half of all gun buyers - would switch to the home delivery method, driving up sales for GrabAGun. Don Jr. helped take GrabAGun public, is a board member and owns more than 300,000 lucrative shares in the company.
The Trump administration previously dropped a Biden-era probe into another gun-sales financing company, Credova Financial, a subsidiary of PublicSquare, which Don Jr., owns a $1.5 million stake in. Once the probe was dropped, PublicSquare shares shot up almost 20%.
In response, DNC Rapid Response Director Kendall Witmer released the following statement:
"Apparently the rules that apply to everyday Americans don't apply to Donald Trump and his family as they continue to use the power of the presidency for their personal gain. Working families are drowning in Trump's economy while Trump and his family cheat the system to line their own pockets. Americans deserve an administration that will prioritize them, not the net worth of the president."
Trump and his family have a legacy of lining their own pockets at the expense of the American people. Most recently, Trump's latest financial disclosures revealed that he purchased millions of dollars in major companies that have business interests in front of the administration and made more than $1.4 billion in income from his family's cryptocurrency business during his first year back in office.

Under Donald Trump, 95% of Americans believe the U.S. is suffering an affordability crisis, according to a new poll. About half of Americans are struggling to afford groceries and gas, and 57% believe the economy is worsening, up 11 points from February, before Trump started his war with Iran. About half of those polled also said that theyare struggling to afford their debt.
Trump has repeatedly dismissed Americans' concerns about the economy, saying he doesn't "think about Americans' financial situations," "even a little bit," and calling affordability a "hoax."
In response, DNC spokesperson Jaelin O'Halloran released the following statement:
"Donald Trump has made life unaffordable for most Americans. His reckless agenda has jacked up costs on everything from gas to groceries, as healthcare premiums skyrocket and it becomes harder to find a job. Working families are having to stretch their wallets thin just to get by, but Trump can't be bothered to focus on anything except his vanity projects and family fortune."
Inflation in May rose to the highest point in three years, as high prices continue to wipe out wage gains and eat up Americans' paychecks. The personal saving rate, which measures Americans' disposable income, dropped to 3% last month, one of the lowest readings since the Great Recession, as Americans turn to their savings and credit to keep up with high prices.
