Retired Ob/Gyn. I just want everyone to have enough. Enough to live productive, peaceful lives without fear regardless of where you were born, the color of your skin, your native language, your sex, your gender, or your religion.

when asked whom he listens to for consistent foreign policy advice, Trump stated:"I'm speaking with myself, number one, because I have a very good brain and I've said a lot of things... My primary consultant is myself and I have a good instinct for this stuff."

His win makes him the first Muslim to secure a major party’s nomination for the U.S. Senate. El-Sayed's platform focuses on Medicare for All, combating corporate money in politics, and ending unconditional U.S. military aid to Israel.

Abdul won by building a grassroots movement focused on lowering costs, protecting communities, and taking on the powerful interests that have rigged the system against working people. The path to a Democratic Senate majority runs through Michigan, and we look forward to electing Abdul in November.

🚨 @abdulelsayed.bsky.social just secured a game-changing win! Despite the status quo Democratic establishment lining up behind his opponent and special interests flooding millions into this race, Abdul's people-powered campaign won. Being a real Democratic fighter is good policy and good politics!

US SENATE, MICHIGAN

Everyone’s expectations got skewed over the past week but Abdul El-Sayed getting $70 million spent against him in a state he lost a primary by like 20 points eight years ago and still winning last night is probably the most impressive electoral accomplishment of the decade.

Rep. Thomas Massie just said what most Republicans won’t: “We won all the damn elections.” A party running the House, Senate, White House, and much of the Supreme Court doesn’t have a rigged-election problem. Elections are secure. Make sure you’re registered to vote! #LoserTrumpsElectionLies

You will see me use and emphasize the term WILLFUL Ignorance in my posts and replies. That's what I call being a MAGAt. They have to be WILLFULLY Ignorant to believe in the BS they are consuming. There is no other way to describe shutting down one's mind to evidence that is objective and evident.

It's not a "plan" that older American workers will "have" to rely on SS as their income, as the result of income inequality, sub-wages & the ever increasing cost of covering basic needs. Making a "living" boiled down to covering one's present expenses w/little left over to either save or invest.

@rikiwilchins.bsky.social 2026 Jul LGBTQnation Another brick in the wall: new Canadian study of 445 trans kids on GAC finds 97.1% continued identifying as transgender after an average of 2.4 years, with only 2.9% detransitioning. Still more proof the kids are all right.

New study deflates right-wing claim that many trans teens later regret gender-affirming care - LGBTQ Nation

Gender identity among adolescents initiating hormone therapy is "highly stable," the authors write.

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

Ross Douthat, opinion writer for the NYT, says: "...if the entire political world spends the next two years positioning itself for an age of certain Democratic power and revenge." Revenge is not needed & likely not pursued. Now justice and righting as many of the MAGA wrongs...that is welcome.

El-Sayed: We live in an era where we continue to see a few very small people try to define America as being as small as they are. We can't control the past 250 years. What we can do is build the next 250

Politics isn’t just about arguments online. It’s about real people, real families, and real communities. I support the Democratic Party because I believe government should work for everyone. Staying engaged is how we create change.
