2026Talks - October 7, 2026

Independent Nebraska Senate candidate Dan Osborne supports President Donald Trump's new executive order waiving restrictions on red-dyed diesel.

Unlike regular diesel, this is untaxed and dyed red because it's only permitted for off-road uses like construction vehicles.

The order aims to offset diesel's high cost, which has risen due to the Iran war.

But Osborne and lawmakers from both sides of the aisle are condemning comments Trump made saying iran could bomb los angeles or san diego as a quote small price to pay for keeping the country safe the white house is calling trump's comments a joke but new york governor kathy hogle calls it shocking

i think this is just a continued deterioration of what he stands for if anything what his presidency means this could be a new law except every day there's a new law

Some Republicans are distancing themselves from Trump on issues like Iran, affordability, and data centers.

While Trump believes rejecting data centers' economic impact is bad for small towns, Michigan GOP gubernatorial candidate John James says Michiganders get to make that decision, not the White House.

I believe very strongly that Michigan is open for business, but we are not for sale.

And ultimately, if you want a data center, fine, we'll help.

If you don't want a data center, fine, we'll help.

But ultimately, the control should be dictated by the locals, not Lansing, not by lawyers

and lobbyists.
