Perhaps the most breathtakingly racist election result since David Duke won the primary for governor.
Seems 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.
The Democratic establishment’s hysteria over the Democratic Socialists of America’s organizing methods has it exactly backward: the Democratic Party has almost no ability to democratically organize voters, while DSA is reviving grassroots campaigning.

lately james carville looks like they made a movie where the grim reaper wants to be a human boy so he starts dressing like this and taking up skateboarding etc
"I am not going to be in the same party with Hasan Piker ... if he becomes a force in the Democratic Party, I am out of here," James Carville says on Fox this morning. Reminder: The Left Insurgency airs tonight on CNN at 8p ET.
Man, if you're the Brewers I don't know how you don't top that Dodgers offer for Skubal.
Democrats will react to El-Sayed’s win not by distancing themselves from AIPAC but by working with Republicans to reduce transparency in campaign finance.
BUT BUDDY, BRO! “Democratic Primary candidate Haley Stevens left her rally in Traverse City Friday after social media influencer and political activist Walter Masterson loudly questioned her association with the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee, also known as AIPAC.”
I realize the overlap of parents who use chatgpt for everything and people who see their kids as objects they acquired for the sake of appearances and don't really want to meaninfully engage with is a circle, but this is still so grim. They can't even chat with their kids on the morning school run?
The easiest possible layup for a President at war with another country would be to explain that they are attacking us. Trump won't do that because he views Minnesota as a bigger enemy than Iran.
Trump: "We heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack and they blame it on Iran. I don't think so. I blame it on Minnesota because they're grossly incompetent. Iran's got bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota."
The Missouri Attorney General is threatening librarians with arrest over an LGBTQ+ story hour for kids, suggesting that a picture book about gay dinosaur dads is "pornography." The Secretary of State says he'll pull funding if the event happens, citing the state's new age verification law.

I wrote about how much Americans wagered on sports betting in 2025 and how it’s more than they spent on movies, art, museums and music combined. Read my article @fortunemagazine.bsky.social fortune.com/2026/07/26/g...
CONSTITUENT: why do you accept money from a right-wing lobbying group? HALEY STEVENS: I must return to my planet now. My people need me.
Cannot get over how electable just drifting away from a constituent who asked you a challenging question makes you.
i’d like to encourage each and every one of you to visit major league baseball’s official site. there you can find mlb coats and clocks for sale. you can learn about legends of the game such as ted williams and curtis mead. you can download the name of your favorite team. it’s a wonderful resource
Average American University grad unfortunately
"Cool kids on the Internet. They're doing the cool kid chatter. Some of 'em might be the coastal elites, making fun of how I talk. But let's be real. They're making fun of Michigan. They're thinking they're better than us. Their jokes, their criticism, only make me fight harder." -- Haley Stevens
Worst part of the new @status.news report is that the Bari Weiss team appears to get its view of what is actually happening in the world from Twitter. They were asking Vega to include things that *weren't real* b/c they didn't know any better. www.status.news/p/cecilia-ve...
you have to read the elite panic over DSA as a function of the fact that basically any quasi-functional chapter of DSA can out-organize the establishment primarily because basically so much of American civil society has gone from mass-moblization to management (DSA is a return to mass mobilization)
step 1: actually stop being an elite club and organize outside
Not a single network aired this on their nightly news broadcasts yesterday. They described Trump overseeing a "somber ceremony" and called it a "moving moment." The only way to know what trump actually said about the soldiers he killed is to follow aaron rupar which no offense to aaron is insane
Trump on fallen US troops: "All of them said very strongly, 'We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.'"
News outlets that covered the US-Saudi nuclear deal without mentioning that Jared Kushner, Trump’s top foreign policy advisor, is getting paid by the Saudi government: WSJ NYT AP Reuters CNN NBC ABC CBS The Guardian Semafor Washington Post Fox News New York Post BBC Newsweek MS NOW
A nuclear deal for the Saudis. A media blackout for Kushner’s corruption.
On Wednesday, the Trump administration signed a 30-year nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia that paves the way for the kingdom to enrich its own uranium.

There are zero "anti-car activists" (the term being thrown around today) who believe that vital services such as emergency response and sanitation shouldn't be done with vehicles. The issue is personal automobile ownership and the over-deployment of cars at the expense of nearly everything else.
You do realize this level of accessibility still isn’t enough for people with specific needs? Do you want to go scold an EMT next for driving a gas guzzler when they should be dragging their gurneys on the subway?
The Jewish left is often accused by other Jews of being so focused on hating Israel that it leaves them indifferent to antisemitism. I usually think that is an unfair charge, given that Israel doesn't keep American Jews safe right now. But this conference seems determined to vindicate that charge.
MAGA firebrand Curt Mills will speak at a Jewish Left conference. Does he belong? jewishcurrents.org/curt-mills-a...
A comment we received about congestion pricing. Subway riders pay $3 to go home. And that's per person, so a family of four pays $24 to ride the subway round trip. The same family in a car would pay only $9 since the congestion fee only applies in one direction.
