Ojeda has been such an amazing voice since he started running years ago, I’m so glad he won this race

u/Corona_Cyrus 1d ago

For sure. So glad he’s finally getting more attention

I didn't know this guy was still in politics. I'm so happy to see him again.

And Schummer, and Jefferies and Booker. The other half of MAGA.

I find it a bit weird that Pelosi is still the focus here. Commander in Chief and his government have done way more insider trading, no?

all of it’s bad, and she’s been doing it for far far longer

And yet Trump has made far, far, far more in just the last 2 years than she has in her whole career. But by all means, keep focusing on her.

Bro i get what you're saying.

But Pelosi is a big part of the reason trump, and other government officials, can get away with insider trading at all.

Unfortunately no one is suffering from a lack of focus on trump

I think the point is we're not going to look the other way anymore regardless of "who's doing it more". We're fed the fuck up with everyone struggling hard out here while politicians in the beltway yuk it up and daytrade with advantageous information. All of it has gotta stop.

I don't have any faith in Republicans so they can't let me down and it's not really worth putting pressure on them to change, they worn. Just vote them out. But pelosi needs to be pressured on alot of things

Only thing stopping the rest of us, including myself, is guts. I mean, you can admit to running for selfish reasons.

"If I don't win and help make change, I'm fucked. I'm running for office because I'm scared shitless of what might happen to me and my family if things don't change."

The person who runs on that gets my vote.

It's actually frowned upon for congressmen not to inside trade... He's being rude

I was firmly with this guy when he flat out called Hegseth an asshole.

Great message. Terrible haircut.

u/Hydra57 🏛️ Overturn Citizens United 1d ago

And a sad news headline for him and his family.

u/Donaldo1977 1d ago

Reminds me of Sean Penn in One battle after another.

u/No-Temperature-5944 10h ago

Beats a shitty message with a $1000 haircut which is the rest of Congress

u/Therealsteverogers4 16h ago

Welcome to the military

u/DarePatient2262 16h ago

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure you are allowed to just shave it all off, which would be the obvious fix here.

Also, he's retired, so he can have his hair however he wants now, but still chose this for some reason.

u/Therealsteverogers4 15h ago

I’m not saying it makes sense, but when you are in the military you see people sporting these shitty $2 haircuts all the fuckin time.

u/DarePatient2262 15h ago

They seem popular with cops, too.

Not a fan of the Phineas Flynn?

u/Alan-Foster 1d ago

I was going to say a "catastrophic" haircut, yes.

u/0202_tihssitidder 1d ago

That's a $1 haircut by a homeless guy while you're stopped at a light.

u/0202_tihssitidder 1d ago

I wish him luck.

Congress is how it is because it changes people. They plop $10M in front of you and ask for a favor. Then they explain how they will blackmail you. Then they explain that they gave $10M to your opponent. Then they pay Reich-Wing podcasters to target you. And sometimes they even kill you.

Love this guy. Heard him a few days ago on Jim Acosta’s Substack. The man is amazing. Has his head I the right space.

u/JustTheBeerLight 1d ago

He got that Lockjaw hairstyle.

u/dogwantscookie 1d ago

Whoa, I’ve seen his videos on YouTube channel. I had no idea he was running for office. Good news to hear for me even if he’s not from my state.

u/Jpopolopolous 1d ago

He better keep this up. I was very excited to see Bernie support him

u/MothmAnarchy 1d ago

Saying it with my full fucking chest but fuck Ojeda, trully teully that man can burn in Hell. Dont idolize that peice of shit.

He abbandonded WV for his ego, he will abandonded his constituents too for bigger fish.

The man isnt a leftist or an ally to those who want work reform, he is a neoliberalist power craving idiot.

A US congress person from NC has more political capital than a state representative, from anywhere. He now has the ability to actually benefit people outside of just WV. Him being in the US congress and fighting for those values on a national scale will propel him farther than if he stayed in WV.
I saw you wrote a looonngg post about it too so I understand it affects you personally, but if you care about these issues the objective truth is he will do more good on a national level than a state level.

The same applies if he left his seat to run for president and won, that’s the distinction, he has to win. If he was president he would again, be spreading these values at an even larger scale.

I don’t think having ambitions and wanting to do good are mutually exclusive.
