TEXT MESSAGES:

7:41am I ordered my sweet member bandana, but still waiting for Morgan to start a substack, patreon, church or cult I can join 😂😂😂 that debate moderation was amazing BTW

7:55am  Joe Byron said we need to vote more pro choice people into office... JOE! We keep doing THAT! DOOO something once yer there!!
-Rudo

7:56am  Only liberty for White Male's. As it was when the construction was written

7:59am  Idk what to do about the Dems because they clearly care more about the preserving the status quo than they do about even winning. Denying them votes doesn't even teach them a lesson ... all they seem to fear is progressives within the party

8:00am  Good morning Morgan and Ambush. Personally I feel things are very bleak. I even once had hope for the progressive movement (i.e. The Squad). As Nina Turner's loss showed us there's too much dark money interfering. I'm disappointed that the justice democrats didn't rally around her, financially, under the pretense of fighting a losing battle.  -Malcolm

8:00am  I can't believe someone took away the Supreme Court's ability to CHOOSE when they tell us they're going to do this !!!

8:05am  Aids was at an all time high when Mike pence got rid of planned Parenthood in Indiana. Case no free std testing

8:08am  BTW I am Jon..
Also can't wait for the cult....
I wait till Thursday every week just to hear Morgan preach it.

8:10am Not the best after that abortion talk

8:13am  Beat me up but Democrats simply don’t have the votes, manchin is against abortion. Period (pun intended). ALL 50 republicans vote together. The two ladies over there are pretending to be outraged the justices we all screamed were picked to overturn roe, overturned roe, and lied to them (but not all the rest of us?).

Republicans STOLE two picks, when in power. Not on Dems.

If those two women are not Mitch’s B’s, they would vote to bust the filibuster for this one issue they claim they support (abortion rights).

Byron has done more than Obama (40 vote majority) on this issue, it has passed the house… with only a four vote dem majority, not an easy thing. And yes, this should have been codified in the 70’s


8:18am  What do we do about campaign finance reform… We talked about this last week with the hardesty campaign... And it is the same with the Nina Turner race.

8:21am  In my best CHUCK D voice: "By the time I get to OHIO!"

8:47am  That protest looked staged to me... Maybe I'm wrong. But that was some funny looking bloc
