Jon Ossoff's calm, intelligent, rational approach and demeanor are refreshing and encouraging.

Hi Maureen

I received your dm. I don't want to engage one on one. Thank you

And pro-Israeli PAC funded…

What you don’t know is that Israel is running attack ads against Ossoff, and you are taking the bait.

Well, that info came from trackAIPAC.com. I support Jon Ossoff, but would like him to know I don't support genocide. It's shocking how many politicians take Israel money. When a vote to end a war comes how does that go?

Karen Brownfield's avatar

Neither does he. Many of us were fed the Israel bs for 60 years. We no longer do. In the last 3 years, every Dem I know wants a divorce from Israel. We were brainwashed, and now, we are not. Full 360.

TrackAIPAC.com had listed Tammy Baldwin as taking money. I sent the info to her and got a reply that she never has. Apparently that site is not trustworthy.

Ossoff is so much better than anything they can throw at him.

Jon Ossoff is a true champion of the people. Do the right and moral thing, Georgia -re-elect Sen. Ossoff.

Good to hear someone intelligent taking down this regime. He needs more good people to help him.

Jon Ossoff is a good man; honest, decent, intelligent, not afraid to say the truth. Georgia needs this man in their corner. Vote blue

I moved from Georgia to Washington State a few years ago, so unfortunately I can no longer vote in the midterms for Ossoff. However, if he decides to run in '28, he has my vote! He is a wonderful candidate - so "presidential sounding."

WHAT EVERY DEM SHOULD BE SHOUTING FROM THE ROOF TOPS EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Ossoff’s attack is notable because it is not built around one scandal or one clever insult. He has assembled a sustained indictment of Trump’s presidency: personal enrichment, tax policy favouring the wealthy, efforts to conceal the Epstein records, the proposed compensation of January 6 offenders, his sons’ foreign business dealings, election denial and a war with Iran that Ossoff says Americans neither authorised nor understand. He ties each of these abuses back to the material reality facing ordinary people - higher costs for groceries, fuel, healthcare and childcare.

The language is unusually direct for a sitting senator. Ossoff calls Trump a “national disgrace,” describes the administration as a “Mar-a-Lago mafia,” and accuses it of being the most corrupt in American history. He has mocked Trump’s obsession with monuments, money and personal glorification, arguing that the president enriches himself while demanding loyalty from officials who will not even acknowledge the result of the 2020 election. During Jay Clayton’s confirmation hearing, Ossoff exposed that humiliation simply by asking who won the election and watching Trump’s nominee refuse to answer.

What makes the speeches politically effective is that Ossoff is not merely denouncing Trump’s character. He is presenting corruption and authoritarianism as inseparable from economic hardship. The message is that government has become “coin operated”: billionaires, family members and political loyalists profit while working families pay more and democratic institutions are bent around one man’s grievances. That is a much stronger argument than simply calling Trump offensive or unstable, because it explains who benefits from the disorder and who pays for it.

Calling these appearances the greatest assault delivered by any senator “in recent memory” is an opinion rather than something that can be objectively proven. But it is fair to say that Ossoff has moved far beyond the cautious language that once defined him. He is now making one of the clearest, most sustained anti-Trump arguments in national Democratic politics - and doing so in Georgia, where Trump continues to repeat disproven election claims even as some Republicans fear that his attacks on the voting system will discourage their own supporters from participating

All that OSOFF expresses against trump is ABSOLUTELY TRUE. Congress needs to stand up to trump with some GUTS, --- that what is being done against the law by trump needs to be addressed and he needs to be punished. trump NEVER KNOWS how to handle a situation! He listens only to people who are as crooked ss he is!!! ---- trump is too old! He HAS NEVER KNOWN to NEGOTIATE! HE brutally BLACKMAleS and threatens others!! THAT IS NOT A WAY TO MAKE AMERICA A STABLE DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY!

Ossoff for president 2028

I would definitely vote for him ‼️

Stone Mountain has a winner. I am loving that so many younger folk are running. I'm thinking most of us are tired of old white men. Let's mix it up a bit more!

Thank you Senator Ossoff! Supporting you from Washington State. #resistance

Micaiah is the right prophet for this moment. Every authoritarian eventually surrounds himself with four hundred people paid to call disaster “victory,” corruption “leadership,” and revenge “justice.” The dangerous person is the one who refuses the script. Ossoff’s strength here is not that he found sharper insults for Trump. It is that he named the moral rot plainly, in language even the court prophets pretending to read the Bible should recognize.

Ossoff is definitely presidential material!

“ Trump has spent years positioning himself as the champion of forgotten Americans, the rural voter, the working family, the people the coastal elites supposedly look down on.

Ossoff’s argument, backed by specific evidence, is that Trump’s actual record is a systematic betrayal of those same people.”

— those ‘same people’ are not very bright … but they WANTED Trump to be right, and so they supported him … now the WORLD pays the price! (Except for Putin).

Ossoff is ahead of the curve. I don’t think many pols who refuse to react to Trump’s criminality will survive for long in office. And that applies to both parties.
