An Albatross On Republican Necks!

Roger Dodger. Kansas senator begs for more resources.

They are moving funds from North Carolina to Kansas.

The Republican Party is feeling squeezed by the Midterm frustrations. The folks aren't buying the bullshit the party is selling. With that curmudgeon President Donald J. Trump at the wheel, the golf cart is veering off a cliff.

Michael Whatley and Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) are in crucial fights. 

North Carolina is Toss Up.

Kansas is Likely Republican.

A report came out showing that Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) had just about enough of Trump. 

A series of text were addressing how Tillis has gotten tired of the curmudgeon causing chaos. He has not endorsed Whatley who is facing off against former North Carolina governor Roy Cooper. 

Whatley is heavily struggling in his 2026 campaign in North Carolina, leading major national GOP groups to scale back or entirely withdraw financial support just weeks before the November election. Whatley, a former chairman of both the state and national Republican parties ignored Tillis advice. 

In late September 2026, Whatley sharply escalated his campaign's social rhetoric. He frequently attacks former Governor Roy Cooper for his past vetoes of Republican legislation aimed at restricting transgender sports participation and gender-affirming medical care for minors. During a speech, Whatley criticized Cooper by stating, "Roy Cooper is going to fight for boys who want to play in girls' sports and men who want to go in women's locker rooms. That is not OK in North Carolina."

Whatley has increasingly leaned into culture war issues as a core pillar of his trailing 2026 U.S. Senate campaign in North Carolina. Facing low statewide name recognition and a widening polling deficit against Cooper, Whatley has adjusted his messaging to focus heavily on hot-button social, religious, and identity politics.

Roger Marshall is sweating. The New York Times reported that was a former practicing doctor, Marshall would file criminal charges on patients who couldn't pay a medical bill.

Marshall's medical practice filed hundreds of debt-collection lawsuits against patients, resulting in police arresting at least 81 individuals. However, Marshall did not personally "call the police" on these individuals. Instead, the arrests occurred because patients missed mandatory court appearances linked to the debt lawsuits.

The practice routinely charged patients an 18% annual interest rate on their debt and utilized bank account and paycheck garnishments.

Before entering Congress in 2016, Marshall and his medical firm filed debt-collection lawsuits against more than 700 patients over outstanding medical bills.

Marshall served in the House before being elected as a senator.

Adam Hamilton, his Democratic opponent capitalized on the controversy. He used a woman who experienced a traumatic situation. 

Hamilton's campaign released a widely shared political ad featuring Meischa Zimmerman, a former patient who says she was arrested and handcuffed while eight months pregnant in front of her toddler due to unpaid C-section bills.

October Surprise.

The Republican led states are now resorting to destroying the infrastructure funds to lower gas prices. They are stopping the gas tax. The gas tax goes to funding roads. 

Michael Whatley helped Trump get reelected. Now he is leaving him out to dry.

In the Midwest, Mountain and Great Plains states, the withholding of the gas tax will undermine the potential of infrastructure repairs during a major storm. Many of these states could expect snow in October. A massive flood or a devastating tornado could wreck roads and bridges.

Pausing the gas tax will only place a Band-Aid on a gunshot wound.

Trump is coming to Dayton today. He will appear at Vandalia Butler High School in Vandalia. The local junk food media will not carry his speech live. They will put it on livestream and continue its regular scheduled programs.

He will stomp for Vivek Ramaswamy and Sen. Jon Husted (R-OH). 

Ohio Republicans rushed through a bill that Gov. Mike DeWine signed into law. The temporary suspension of the state gas tax for three months is expected to ease off $.45 of gasoline and $.65 for diesel. Gas stations quickly decline the prices. The average prices were $4.19⁹ for regular gas and $6.89⁹ for diesel. It is a lame attempt to starve off the potential defeat in November.

Ramaswamy and his opponent, Democrat Amy Acton are in a dead heat race.

Husted and former friend, former Ohio senator Sherrod Brown are also in a dead heat.

Ohio gubernatorial race. I have it as Toss Up.

Ohio senate race. I have it as Tilt Republican. 

The president promises $5,000 to Americans if they continue to support him and the Republican Party this Midterm. Literally bribing the voters with a mere bunch of crumbs.

According to estimates from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget cited by outlets like The Huffington Post, the plan would cost over $1.2 trillion to $1.3 trillion, requiring congressional approval that faces steep legislative and fiscal hurdles
