The Iran war is very unpopular. Independent vet @typinkins.bsky.social is running for US Senate in Mississippi and shares what he’s hearing from Republican voters. And why they’re open to his message as an independent.

🔥 🚨 🔥 🚨 🔥 🚨 🔥 French Senator Claude Malhuret says what the majority of the world is thinking

I had a powerful conversation on The Karen Hunter Show, and I hope you’ll take a moment to listen. We talked about this campaign, the state of our politics, and why I’m running for the United States Senate as an Independent. Take a listen, share it with somebody you know. youtu.be/4PeL1eZ5bw8?...

Washington isn’t just broken. It’s bought. That’s why I’m running for U.S. Senate as an Independent—because Mississippi deserves a Senator who works for the people, not millionaires, billionaires, party bosses, or special interests. www.TyPinkins.com

“Along with Dan Osborn (Nebraska), Brian Bengs (South Dakota) and Ty Pinkins (Mississippi), these four independents are running to break the two-party system’s majority control.” @typinkins.bsky.social @thebigbengs.bsky.social

Paul Rieckhoff and John Opdycke put their finger on what the political class keeps missing: the Independent movement is not a trend, it’s reality. In a moment when a record-high 45% of Americans identify as Independents, the people in the middle are no longer a sidebar. ivn.us/posts/gallup...

@typinkins.bsky.social shares what he’s heard across all 82 Mississippi counties, where voters are rejecting “the same two parties saying the same things.” A Black combat veteran and Delta native, he’s emerging as a serious challenge to an entrenched MAGA incumbent.

Why is @mississippitoday.org, which is supposed to be a nonprofit newsroom, working so hard to erase Independents from the conversation? They won’t host debates. They crown candidates before a single vote is cast. And they ignore the fastest-growing voting bloc in America. I'm calling it out.

I’m grateful to receive the endorsement of the Progressive Voters Network. Their support is meaningful, and it strengthens my resolve to keep doing the work that moves our community forward. Support my campaign at www.TyPinkins.com

Agree 💯 With Bernie.......

Hi guys in Mississippi. Pinkins running as an Independent cuz the D party machine treated him like, well, you know. He's got good ideas and believe he's not taking PAC money. I applaud him for leaving the D party to run as an I. Visit his website and look for him in your state and go chat with him.

And join/support @indyvetsofamerica.bsky.social Especially if you’re an independent vet that’s interesting in running for any office in 2026 like Ty. From Senate to school board. Your country needs you.🚨🇺🇸🐺

Excellent news for Mississippi, America, and independents nationwide. Well done and congrats, @typinkins.bsky.social! Ty is an inspiring independent vet leader. Hear/watch his visit with me on @indyamericans.bsky.social : independentamericans.us/355-ty-pinki...

I’m officially on the ballot for U.S. Senate in 2026 — as an Independent. Not because of a party machine. Not because of big donors. But because of over 1,000 Mississippians who believed enough to sign a petition... and hand me a shot. 📖 I wrote about it below:

Talked with @rieckhoff.bsky.social about how both parties have their hands stuck in the cookie jar—and big money is drowning out regular folks. We need leaders who listen, not ones bought and paid for. 🎧 Listen here: independentamericans.us Learn more about my campaign at www.TyPinkins.com

Pinkins shares his compelling personal journey from the cotton fields to the campaign trail, discusses the failures of both parties, and lays out why Mississippi—and America—need true independent voices now more than ever. And why independents can win where Democrats (and Republicans) can’t.

America is facing unprecedented division and anxiety, but this is also a moment of new possibilities and bold leadership. In this powerful episode, I continue our Meet the Independent Candidate series w @typinkins.bsky.social —Army veteran, lawyer, lifelong Mississippian, & independent for Senate.

🚨 WE WON! A few years ago, fresh out of law school, I joined a lawsuit as 1 of 4 plaintiffs suing the Mississippi State Board of Election Commissioners over Mississippi’s Supreme Court election map-which violated the Voting Rights Act. After 3 years of litigation, today we got the news: WE WON!

We had a wonderful time knocking doors in Magnolia and McComb, MS earlier this week! Nothing beats connecting face-to-face with folks who care deeply about their communities and their futures. www.TyPinkins.com #TyPinkinsForUSSenate #MississippiStrong #PeopleOverParty

In Bay Springs, I met a veteran selling tomatoes, shared catfish with the mayor, and listened to a town that refuses to be forgotten. This one’s about showing up—for real people in real places. open.substack.com/pub/typinkin...

Let’s say the quiet part out loud: If the men who raped and trafficked underage girls weren’t rich and powerful, they’d already be locked up This isn’t just about Jeffrey Epstein. He is but the tip of a much bigger blade, forged by wealth, protected by power, and sharpened by silence.

1/9 I took my daughter to Hal & Mal’s in Jackson for lunch. We left with something much deeper than a meal. 🧵Here’s what a longtime waitress named Hershey reminded me about work, dignity—and why I came back to Mississippi. open.substack.com/pub/typinkin...

🧵1/8 Today, I took a break from knocking doors in Yazoo County and drove to visit my dad. He was sitting on the porch, in his wheelchair, listening closely as I pulled into the gravel driveway. This visit wasn’t about politics. It was personal. typinkins.substack.com/p/tales-from...

Tale from the Trail-Door Knocking in Yazoo County Over 100 doors knocked today. From gravel roads and cornfields to front porches and backyard gardens in Yazoo County. I met veterans, farmers, teachers, carpenters, and single moms—each with a story worth hearing. open.substack.com/pub/typinkin...

Before I share this piece, let me be clear: I didn’t write it to settle scores. I wrote it to tell the truth. I wrote it for the people who’ve been shut out, counted out, and told to keep quiet. Here’s my story. Unfiltered. Unbought. Undeterred. substack.com/profile/2274...

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

I don't believe Iran should have a nuclear weapon. But we need to ask: Why did Trump bomb Iran's nuclear sites now? This isn’t just about nukes—it’s about oil, power, and America’s place in a changing world. Here’s my take.

1/9 This morning, during Juneteenth week, I was sworn into the Bar of the United States Supreme Court. A son of the Mississippi Delta. In the highest court in the land. This moment isn’t a finish line. It’s fuel. 🧵

A sitting U.S. Senator was handcuffed for asking a question. If the Trump crowd will do that to a Senator, what will they do to everyday Americans exercising their First Amendment rights? We need leaders who listen—not ones who silence. #TyPinkinsForUSSenate

We had a Town Hall in Oxford, Miss. even though our congresspeople wouldn’t join us. @typinkins.bsky.social who is running to replace Hyde-Smith in 2026 came, and he answered questions.

Huge thanks to everyone who showed up for our protest rally in Biloxi today! A shoutout to the Hancock County Democrats, the Harrison County Democrats, the Diamondhead Democrats Progressives Independents Alliance, 50501MS & all who stood in defense of our democracy.

#GulfofMexico #Mississippi We said it loud… We said it proud! Saturday April 19! Obama staffer & 20 yr vet @typinkins.bsky.social fired up a crowd… Running against Cindy Hyde Smith…

Next week in Oxford, Miss. none of our elected federal representatives have agreed to join us, but we are having a Town Hall anyway. And @typinkins.bsky.social, our Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, will be there.

Here’s the clip of Senator Murkowski saying she’s afraid. She’s not the only one. If she and her colleagues came together to impeach, convict, investigate, and uphold their oath to the Constitution, they could end this corruption. No one else is coming to save us. substack.com/@timmiller15...

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

1/7 CINDY HYDE-SMITH FAILS US AGAIN! Did you know that under Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution, Congress—not the president—holds the power to levy tariffs? thehill.com/homenews/sen...
