I hope that working- and middle-class people got some of that money instead of it all being blown on some trust-fund advisor. The best outcome would be millions being dumped back into the community with Stevens losing anyway.
Jodi Jacobson@jljacobson.bsky.social · 14h agoHalf of the $62 million spent by outside groups in Michigan spent to support Stevens came from AIPAC.
Trump endorsing black men in the hopes that Black Americans will vote according to race instead of for the candidate who is best for them is the highest of comedy. You would think his people would have learned something from Mark "Nude Africa" Robinson.
The Downballot@the-downballot.com · 12h agoSeems like an upset might be brewing in the GOP primary in #MI08 to take on Dem Rep. Kristen McDonald Rivet. Trump endorsed Amir Hassan, but he currently trails an absolute nobody who suspended his campaign a month ago by a wide margin.

My cousins would get hit on by celebrities and artists all the time. I didn't and I used to think it was because I was just the ugly one, but then I realized that they stayed outside and my boring ass was in the house reading books.
I will never forget the fact that Jeru the Damaja hit on my cousin and his opening line was, "Excuse me, I don't mean any disrepect, but you are extremely healthy."

I am once again getting on my soapbox to inform the world that Stephen A. Smith is Bill Maher for black people. But to address the words of the nonsense man, trans women in a league for WOMEN does not harm cis women. Unless they are mid af. The same way black athletes do not harm white athletes.

The disconnect is that black people know non-black people are racist af to the point that they will NOT vote for the best candidate, so Black Americans are forced to be pragmatic and vote around the racism of their fellow citizens.
