If you didn’t vote for Kamala Harris in Nov/2024, I have NOTHING to say to you. Black Voters Matter!

Abdul El-Sayed's final margin of victory seems to officially be just barely under one point. I would like everyone to pause and ask themselves whether El-Sayed would have endorsed Stevens as quickly as she endorsed him if she had won the primary by a margin of 0.97%. Just food for thought.
VP Kamala Harris has endorsed Abdul El-Sayed with the conclusion of the primary & has sent out this joint fundraising email for him & her Fight for the People PAC. secure.actblue.com/donate/kdh-f...
Attacking the 700,000 Michiganders who voted for Haley Stevens ain't gonna get it. Abdul El-Sayed needs to cut this loud mouthed fucker loose.

So, AIPAC doesn't determine elections after all, after years of us hearing precisely that claim from the left.
Cori was all in on ending USAID like the rest of the DSA. Bell did not take $18m from AIPAC. If you’re using that god awful tracker it conflates multiple Jewish groups (including those that are pro-Palestinian and anti Likud) and even random Jewish donors with AIPAC, because they’re antisemitic.
Basically places are choosing Democratic nominees that fit their state/district. The problem is that our current crappy political press distorts what’s going on so that any time a leftist wins, it’s blaring coverage & any time a non-leftist wins, which is the majority of the time, it’s silence.
Progressives didn’t get the big election night they wanted

The razor-thin margin will only deepen divisions over the future of the Democratic Party.

Cori Bush getting annihilated is outstanding for pretty much everyone who cares about effective representation and fewer cranks in congress Also bodes well for the prospect of ejecting other cranks like Chevalier in the next cycle or two IMO
Important for all Democrats to unite around the simple truth that it it’s important for Abdul El-Sayed to win his election to help make Chuck Schumer the most powerful Democrat in the country
And AIPAC is not the cause of everyone’s woes. Anyone who complains about AIPAC is an anti semite.. and I wouldn’t vote for such a person.
R. Souissi@rsouissivibes.bsky.social · 16h agoAlso. The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is not foreign-funded. Its funding comes entirely from private U.S. citizens and domestic donors, overwhelmingly American Jews. Stop saying it's foreign-funded. Are y'all discrediting the citizenship of American Jews?
My ice-cold boring take that will definitely not go viral is that a primary result with a margin of victory of roughly 1 percent tells you precisely nothing about The Future Of The Party.
If you were saying the MI Senate election was going to be a bloodbath based on a county where virtually none of the vote was in, you’re not someone folks should be listening to about elections.
If America was truly great, Donald Trump would NOT be president.
My blood just pumps and my heart rate increases, EVERY TIME I hear this song... Scotland the Brave. There is no other sound as majestic to my ear, anywhere on this planet... More than the sound of the bagpipes. 1000 of them playing all at once, could easily own my soul for eternity. 🏴Scotland.💙
I’m not voting on a noun, verb, and AIPAC/Israel today, tomorrow, or 20 years from now. I want policies that benefit me and others here.
Barbara Gordon@thebookwizard.bsky.social · yesterdayThey need to understand that “AIPAC Bad” isn’t enough to win when people are struggling here.
When I was Attorney General, I took on the chaos coming from the Trump administration in court. And I won. Trump makes a lot of dangerous noise, but as Governor, I'll continue fighting to stop his attempts to destroy our resources, our state, and our values.
If you're in line to vote, stay in line! Polls close at 8PM local time.
Read what this writer is saying about black voters.. that publication deserves to go under.
Maria.Remarque@42mariaremarque.bsky.social · yesterdayFor the post they deleted. It’s disgusting shit.
@emmarjanssen.bsky.social You’re the dumb racist pos who said Black voters are stupid and and only do what older Black voters /electeds tell us. Fuck you and your stupid article. Maybe yell at your family, your Starbucks besties, and your Pilate class friends to stop voting for racists
Bowiegrrl@bowiegrrl.bsky.social · yesterdayHey @emmarjanssen.bsky.social Saying Black voters don’t like racist antisemitic DSA candidates because they’re uneducated is not the flex you think it is. Sanders tried the same thing, calling Black voters “low information” because they didn’t buy his 40 year old stump speech.
