Fetterman optimistic about Trump’s tariffs after criticism Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) broke ranks and praised Trump for his use of tariffs.

On January 19, my family had over 30 items (a week's worth of groceries during a school year), and the cost was $170. Just last week, the same amount of groceries, over 30 items, was nearly $240.

What has changed since then, Mr. Fetterman? www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/senate/...

I picked up a second job while running for office currently. Is my time management skills evolving? You better believe it lol

Am I still the evolving into best candidate despite the extra work? Absolutely, we have to play the hand we are dealt and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

My community needs better leadership, they need leaders who don’t think that privilege to the best forms of life are up for debate.

It is why I am running and why I will never fold and keep fighting for everyone around me in my community!

The Josh Bashline Effect:

Part 1: Garrity makes posts supporting the bill.

Part 2: An endorsement of State Treasurer Stacy Garrity for Governor from Rep. Bashline on July 14.

Part 3: Garrity today not backing down from endorsing the BBB & the impact it will have on my community.

Wave of young Pa. Democrats engaging in politics as party debates its future WASHINGTON β€” Andrew Harbaugh and his wife, Lexi, aren’t talking about buying a house just yet.Β  β€œFor people to understand how tough...

Thank you to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette for reaching out to me about my race! Brought a big smile to my face to see both it and Clarion Borough getting a much-deserved spotlight shined on them. www.post-gazette.com/news/politic...

Trump and the Catholic Church Fight a Law Requiring Clergy to Report Child Abuse Washington state’s new law forcing clergy to report child abuse becomes a constitutional test, facing challenges from churches and the Trump admin.

As a father, this pisses me off, plain and simple. As someone running for office, I don’t understand the rationale behind this on any level of thinking other than follow the money.

Truly disappointing and horrifying. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

I’m convinced that Dems have chosen to fight amongst each other because:

A) It’s easier than looking in the mirror or at the real problems we are facing.

B) They feel comfortable talking to them only so we get catering to the extremes.

C) Mamdani is new, scary and threatening the establishment.

While I agree that there needs to be a clear message, this is not it IMO.

Fight or fold is what I have been using in my race and it has been getting great response and folks love the idea. It presents you with two clear options with one being a proactive approach compared to the complete opposite.

Cruelty beyond compare from this administration at this point. Not even partisan politics they are playing, instead they are playing with people’s lives.

Hmmmm young Democrats who aren’t afraid to say things how they are AND challenge the older generation of the party? If only I knew a few… *cough cough* @amandalitman.bsky.social *cough cough*

Happy Fourth of July and Independence Day, America!

249 years ago a group of men took a chance and put their lives at risk for generations of people to come. While we have been far from perfect since then, we have made mistakes while maintaining our freedom!

Here is to family and freedom! πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸŽ†

This bill, if it passes, is going to be a wake up call for enough people it will create issues for those who voted for it.

If there is someone who is moving on and ignoring the bad in a situation it would be Jim Jordan, as recent documentaries have suggested.

You sure taught them a lesson, Chuck. Thank God you were able to stand up to them by doing this and setting such a strong example of defiance for the rest of us.

I’m sorry if a vote is inconveniencing a family trip but when you decided to run for public office, you knew what it involved!

If this is an issue, resign or don’t seek re-election.

3 million people in PA are on Medicaid, rural hospitals will close, you may know your vote but you gotta fight.

Fight or fold is my new campaign approach, everyone has to do something every day whether it is politics related or not so why not focus that energy!

I will fully admit I was there for the first 30ish days but I very quickly realized this term was much different than the first go-around.

Needless to say I have made a β€œhalftime” adjustment and am being much more active.

City council, borough council, Mayor, School Board, and so many more positions often get forgotten but they make a difference at the most important level.

THE GROUND LEVEL.

Yesterday, it was Rep. Don Bacon announcing his retirement after representing one of three Nebraska districts that Harris won in November.

Today it’s news that Senator Thom Tillis is not seeking reelection.

Two major opportunities for Democrats in 2026 to gain some ground already on the books.

Mamdani is the first drop in a tidal wave that is going to hit the Democratic Party.

When Dems lost their way on how to win back people, Clinton led that charge in the 90s.

When Bush and the Republicans dominated the 2000s, Obama brought hope.

Who will be the face of the next generation?

You wanna make a difference in your city? Run for office.

You wanna motivate those around you by leading by example? Run for office.

Just run for F’N office and be the change you want to see!

@runforsomething.net and @amandalitman.bsky.social are doing great things, don’t be afraid to reach out!

@amandalitman.bsky.social has been saying this for awhile and it’s refreshing to see from Senator Warnock.

We have got to quit trying to win the 2024 election and start looking forward. Way too many people are still analyzing Novembers results instead of looking at what’s infront of us.

Yesterday was primary day for me, and I am happy to announce I received enough votes to make it to my town's general election in November!

I got a lot of support from many good friends here and I want to thank them for the support!
