this should go over well i the general

Every single Republican candidate for governor of Minnesota (including Mike Lindell!) makes clear that if Trump tried another Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities, they would support his efforts to brutalize residents

For the first time since 2017, a Reuters/Ipsos poll finds Democrats surpassing Republicans on which party voters think has a better approach to the economy. Trump's approval rating is at 35%. Democrats lead by 5-points on the generic congressional ballot.

Voters prefer Democrats over Republicans on economy for first time in a decade, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds

Democrats lead Republicans 37% to 36% on the economy, a Reuters/Ipsos poll shows.

Lindell: "I know a guy. I have an advantage over everyone up here. I can call up the president!"

DURBIN: You wrote an article in which you claimed 'Black inmates are most like to become sexual aggressors.' Why should people of color believe you've changed? CRONAN: I co-authored the article. I haven't re-read it in a long time. DURBIN: Do you believe it? CRONAN: I'm not in a position to opine

About 350,000 Haitians in the US have lost their legal status in light of a US Supreme Court decision that allows the Trump administration to gut the Temporary Protected Status program. No other state will feel the repercussions of the loss of Haitian TPS recipients more than Florida.

Florida’s nursing homes are bracing for life without Haitian TPS workers

The Supreme Court ended their legal status. Patients will pay the price.

Here is a link to the WSJ @nicktimiraos.bsky.social story that our Treasury secretary doesn’t want you to read. (It should be a free link, but it doesn’t always work) www.wsj.com/economy/cent...

Why Bessent Is Leaning on the Fed to Help Prop Up Japan’s Currency

The Treasury secretary wants the central bank to help by raising its $60 billion borrowing limit on an obscure lending program.

As evidence for Warsh’s rough start as Fed chair, the Treasury secretary is now going after reporters for their coverage of the central bank.

"So he can feel a bit more manly by making an AI video" is a direct callback to this image that deserves a second life in this campaign

Dr. Abdul El-Sayed: Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can feel a bit more manly by making an AI video. If you want a senator who's gonna lick some boots, go vote for Rogers. But if you want a senator who's going to stand up to Trump, you've got your option.

Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.

* It's unreal how terrible Trump's nominees are * DURBIN: You wrote, 'Feminists advanced a theory that rape is meant to perpetuate male domination.' Do you still oppose Violence Against Women Act? CANDEUB: I haven't really thought it D: In 2023 you did an interview & decried harassment laws ...

El-Sayed was "unelectable." A progressive agenda wouldn't resonate with "real Americans." Well, he won. The agenda won. And he beat $60 million from outside money AND the Dem Establishment AND Islamophobia. Dems will consolidate and Abdulrahman El-Sayed WILL BEAT Rogers and MAGA. Inshallah ;)

That’s almost as crazy as contemplating the idea of a President Hussein Obama! The horror!

JD Vance: "We don't want the next administration, whoever -- god forbid you're gonna have President El-Sayed in three years ... "

If It Happens because the president installed an incompetent reality TV star as Transportation Secretary ....

FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION CONFIRMS MARINE ONE WAS BRIEFLY TOO CLOSE TO PASSENGER AIRPLANE - STATEMENT

Mike Lindell's closing statement at the gubernatorial forum at Farmfest is a lunatic rant about the 2020 election and Trump's big lie

When he was Chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Mike Rogers (the Republican candidate for Senate in Michigan) publicly took the position that "you can't have your privacy violated if you don't know your privacy is violated." Colbert had some fun with that: crooksandliars.com/cltv/2013/10...

BLUMENTHAL: Judge Cook, who won the 2020 election? COOK: A joint session of Congress certified Joe Biden BLUMENTHAL: How many times have you rehearsed that answer with the White House? Who won the popular vote? COOK: So if you look at each state, the governor-- B: So you're unwilling to answer

Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.

BLUMENTHAL: Judge Cronan, you're already on the district court. Who won the 2020 election? CRONAN: Joseph Biden received the majority of electoral votes B: You have nothing to lose. You have a lifetime appointment, and yet you're unwilling to state the simple fact that Biden won the 2020 election

Meine ukrainische Bekannte schreibt mir grad, dass Russland heute anscheinend zum 1. Mal in Kiew (ihrer Heimatstadt) Phosphorbomben eingesetzt hat.

BLUMENTHAL: Judge Cook, was the Capitol attack on January 6? COOK: I hesitate to use the word 'attack'
