President Ulysses S. Grant 🇺🇸 wasn’t a corrupt President. The people around him were corrupt - he just failed to do anything about it due to a warped sense of loyalty to them #POTUS 👇🏼

Mike Rogers ended up at 5% in Detroit, short of the 7% he got in 2024. 'Dems for Mike Rogers' wasn't really a thing there.

The Mayor of Dearborn, Michigan reports that early voting in his city rose 22% in today's election compared to 2024. A midterm surpassing a presidential year for early voting is pretty significant.
DEARBORN IS FIRED UP!!! Early voting has officially concluded, and Dearborn showed up in a BIG way! 9,183 early votes cast in 2026, compared to 7,551 in November 2024. That’s a nearly 22% INCREASE! Thank you to every resident who showed up and every election worker who made it possible. We’re not done yet! If you have an absentee ballot, make sure you return it. If you haven’t voted, make your plan to vote on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3. Every vote matters. Let’s finish strong, Dearborn!

.@AbdulElSayed is totally making his opposition look backwoods as hell with his brain, his caring and pure logic in this time for citizens in his state. Citizens want smart courageous leadership especially those stuck in a time of negligence…

You heard in private Stevens really was nuts but in the campaign it was, you know, “judging a woman for her accent,” that sort of thing. But it’s all coming out now. Most often a person who appears nuts is nuts.

Turnout in Dearborn City in Michigan is ALREADY 20% higher than it was in 2024 during a PRESIDENTIAL election year. I estimate that some of these precincts are going to swing greater than 120% from where they voted in the last election.
