More liberal laws are associated with declines in Democratic electoral performance.

The current governor of Pennsylvania -

I’m calling on the legislature to act on my plan to send $2,000 checks to Pennsylvanians ASAP.

I’ve heard from so many of you about how much this would mean to you and your families.

Our finances are in better shape than ever. We have the funds—and Pennsylvanians need the help.

He's a Democrat re-elected in Nov. 2018 (and his Lt. Gov. Fetterman is currently running for the U.S. Senate against Oz.)

BREAKING: Ilhan Omar survives #MN05 primary, challenger Don Samuels concedes.

Omar will win by ~3,000 votes, far less than the 35,000 she won by in the 2020 primary. https://t.co/cpzgQ7KJf6

Kentucky!

I’m a Kentuckian born and raised. It is absolutely mind boggling to me that Joe Biden has been to visit families of eastern Kentucky who’ve been absolutely devastated by floods — and Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul haven’t. https://t.co/djXn1iw0sF

Where were McConnell and Paul?

Watching Joe Biden as he visits and empathizes with the devastated families of eastern Kentucky, I'm torn between feeling genuine pride at how great he is at moments like this and feeling genuine antipathy toward Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul who haven’t even bothered to show up.

This right here. I am a Kentuckian and absolute silence from McConnell and Paul is deafening and disgusting. They need to be voted out https://t.co/YvFvlebbgm

Today, @POTUS is visiting the aftermath of a climate disaster in KY that killed 37 people.

The White House is reclaiming the “Dark Brandon” meme amid headlines touting the Democrats’ latest legislative accomplishment. https://t.co/QBrR9QwiQ3

"The eagle is not, and was never intended to be the reichsadler," Stone told the outlet, referring to the eagle. "It was just intended to be a representation of America's national bird, the bald eagle, and any reasonable person would interpret it as such." https://t.co/gjfJgSSYAd

Wait, did Dark Brandon just deliver in the span of 1 week: a massive reconciliation bill, CHIPS bill, Veterans bill, elimination of the Al Qaeda leader, longest stretch of plummeting gas prices, AND a red hot jobs report?

Brandon don't give 2 fucks

The “Dark Brandon” meme is probably one of the most organic and effect repurposing of a negative slogan I’ve seen in a long time.

Anyone is welcome to steal and repost my dark Brandon memes without crediting me, I am currently only interested in seeing if I can get them to spread across twitter and onto other platforms.
