Ty Pinkins for Mississippi

Husband & Father | Veteran | Attorney | Lifelong Mississippian | Candidate for U.S. Senate
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.

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.

🚨 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

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.
When the Powerful Rape, They Walk. When the Powerless Speak, They’re Silenced.
This isn’t just a scandal—it’s a conspiracy to protect predators wearing the masks of billionaires, politicians, and presidents, all hidden behind a fortress of 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.

🧵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.

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.

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.
