I wonder if the video of Tom Homan accepting a $50K payoff from the FBI is in the same lockbox as the Epstein files and the cocktail napkin that Trump used to write out his health care plan.

“Trump promised to deport “criminals and gang members.” Instead, he has deported productive, law-abiding residents who are raising families and contributing to the economy.”

First responders like Eddie & the FMBA have stood with Mikie Sherrill from day 1. They know she’s the kind of leader who takes on the toughest fights.

Ciattarelli? He cashed checks from opioid makers & helped spread their lies about addiction. He got paid, NJ suffered!

CNN says the Epstein story is dead based on google searches dropping, as if people need to continually search for the same information, so in order to keep it as a top story OUR job is to type "Epstein files" into google once a day every day.. do it now!
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Jack Ciattarelli has said, as Governor, it’s his job to help Donald Trump — like keeping tariffs, while New Jerseyans are crushed by one of the highest costs of living in the country.

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social knows her role as Governor is to support the people of NJ.

The choice is clear.

A mom in Houston reported her 15-year-old son with autism missing. She spent 6 days terrified, searching for him. The whole time, Houston police knew exactly where he was since they helped ICE place him in a refugee facility.

This is beyond cruel.
