AP Photo/John Raoux Republican senators are sounding the alarm that their party could very well be in the minority following the midterm elections.
The messaging here could mean two things — either they are saying this to encourage the GOP base to go out in droves and vote for GOP candidates — or they are already throwing in the towel and have given up due to some discouraging polls.
The polls in question show Arizona Senate candidate Blake Masters and Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance losing their Senate races. As we all know, polls don’t tell the whole story, and most times, polls are incorrect.
This is the most recent poll for the Ohio Senate race, and it is encouraging for Vance, considering it was an Impact Research/Democratic internal poll. POLL: Impact Research/ @TimRyan (D) Internal Poll 2022 #OHSen General Election

But if they are trying to rile up the GOP base to go out in droves and vote, it could be a clever tactic.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
