DOJ election monitors reportedly tried to access voting machines in Wyoming last week.
I’ve spent thousands of hours reporting on past efforts by Trump allies to access machines & copy data.
Mark my words: State officials need to be ready for this to happen again.

Bezos, Thiel, Zuckerberg, Ricketts are the modern day robber barons stripping this country bare. They expect us to be happy paying more while owning less. Our politicians should be standing up to this unchecked corporate greed.

Pete Ricketts can write himself a $5 million check and buy all the TV time he wants. That’s how he’s ALWAYS done politics.
I’d rather earn it the real way, in your living room, on your main street, at the diner on the corner. That’s why I’m doing the 93 County Tour, one county at a time.

We have a choice in 2026.
We can elect Pete Ricketts again, a billionaire who’s ruled Nebraska like a mob boss while working families fall further behind.
Or we can elect a steamfitter and Navy vet who’s spent his life working alongside Nebraskans, not looking down on them.

Just moments ago the President was supposed to sign a bipartisan housing bill here in the capital.
Except, in a bizarre chapter, he didn’t and is a no show—because he says he’s mad at the Senate. Here’s what’s happening ⬇️👀

The man pardoned 1,500 insurrectionists in one fell swoop and nobody did anything
He started a war with one nation and kidnapped the leader of another and nobody did anything
He literally tore down a third of the White House and nobody did anything
What else will our leaders do nothing about?

Pete Ricketts just voted in favor of forever wars.
Today, Republicans and Democrats in the Senate came together to pass a War Powers Resolution, which formally calls for an end to the War in Iran unless Congress votes to authorize it.

The Railway Safety Act is not some "liberal" piece of legislation. Republican JD Vance is one of its original co-sponsors!
Unsurprisingly, the railroad lobby is against this bill. So is Pete Ricketts who takes their money!
I support this bill and I take ZERO dollars from the railroads.
