So brave to turn off replies because this is straight up and up bullshit.
El-Sayed won. I’m urging Black Detroiters to STAY HOME and be “uncommitted’ like El-Sayed was for Kamala Harris during the general election. Dearborn voted for TRUMP instead of the Black Lady. I’m encouraging Black Detroit to vote for Jill Stein or Trump , like the Arabs in Dearborn did in 24!
In any other case, the DNC would be celebrating this historic win.
“El-Sayed barely won” Haley Stevens spent ~79% of total spent on ads to El-Sayed’s 9%. He was outspent by over 8x and yet still won. That is an amazing feat considering all of the odds stacked against him! Also, he was racistly and Islamophobically slandered the ENTIRE race and yet he STILL won
There won't be the possibility to save a planet ignored as easily as it was to reform smokers. We. Don't. Have. Time.
The Independent: July is typically the warmest month of the year, but this could be the hottest ever in the US. “Heat waves are becoming more intense, lasting longer & covering larger areas than they used to because of human-caused climate change.” #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
Just look what Eisenhower, a Republica, did with that money. The freeway system and the St Lawrence Seaway opened up the mid west to interstate and international trade. He built the middle class.
The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.
Now entering the classical phase of our slow Sunday... my mother would play this and I would act it out. Yes, this is where I got my flair for the dramatic!

I read a substack about this just a moment ago by @tomhicksmedia.bsky.social . Coinkidink? I think so, but a happy one!
He can run for whatever he wants he’s not going to win as a Democrat
CNN: Are you definitely going to run for reelection? FETTERMAN: I've already essentially announced that
Woo Hoo a win...on the same day I find out that Donold is profiting from our National Parks. He gets a 30% cut from all park proceeds. Mfer.
A win! A federal court has denied xAI’s request to block Minnesota’s AI nudification law from taking effect. That means the law is set to go into effect today as scheduled.
One bag. Potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, spinach, single chicken breast, one pack of everything bagels, benecol spread, a bag of brown rice. $56.00. My cholesterol levels are forcing a re-think on eating habits and damned if it won't be more expensive eating low-fat, unprocessed food. Lovely.
If magats are America First, wtf are we in a war by, and for, Israel? I've always wondered why we must protect Israel with American lives? Note please, I am not talking about people or religion, I am talking about a dictator and his government, imposing their will whilst leaving us paying the bill.
Talarico: Paxton gave an Epstein-style sweetheart deal to an admitted child predator, was reported to FBI for bribery by his own staff, became a multi-millionaire on a government salary & now own 15 homes on the public's dime. He should have to answer the public's questions. Let's get busy! vote.org
Way to go @oliveralarkin.bsky.social ! It's a wonder ICE didn't wrestle you to the ground to stop you! "How many children can be raped and it's fine."
Oliver Larkin, Florida congressional candidate: “If we’re going to talk about children being raped, then we need to hold this pedophile president, Donald Trump, accountable and all those that have been implicated by the Epstein files.” 🔥 #SheShed
Rest thee well Glen Hassard...far too early for you to take your leave of us but I wish you as musical of an ending as was your life.
We are watching, in real time, the biggest fuck-up by any president in the history of the United States of America.
It’s worth pausing on the scale of Burnham’s social care pitch. This could be the biggest reform to health in England in a generation. A universal care system - effectively a second NHS - would be revolutionary. Just free personal care would be lifechanging for older and disabled people.
