Super PACs spent $70 million to elect Haley Stevens. At least $34 million came from AIPAC. She had no popular policies. She had no ground game. Dr. Abdul El-Sayed won because he had both. We’re done with corporate, establishment Democrats. It’s time for a new chapter.

I noticed many comments last night from MAGA Republicans who said they “did their job” by voting for Haley Stevens in the Michigan primary. Stevens never had a better chance of beating Mike Rogers. That was just another AIPAC lie, like their mailers that implied an Obama endorsement.

Blue MAGA (aka establishment democrats) now have the audacity to claim that supporting Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is racist. In reality, the bigoted decision would be to support a woman who continues to receive gobs of AIPAC money, while standing for nothing.

If establishment Democrats were in the Star Wars universe: “Our heart goes out to the family of Emperor Palpatine. We may have disagreed on policy, but damn did we respect his work. What a great man who advanced the empire for the better. He will be sorely missed.”

I spoke with the late Senators Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell last night, before they both passed. They said the only path forward is Medicare for All, ending endless wars, building strong unions, and investing in our communities.

Credible allegations of sexual assault against Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner make it impossible for me to help him in any form. Mainers deserve a choice for Senate without moral compromise. I have withdrawn all my support and am asking that he drops out of this race.

The UK’s increasingly authoritarian government banned Hasan Piker and Cenk Uyghur from entering their country, because both Hasan and Cenk openly criticize Israel and the UK’s complicity in genocide. Fascism isn’t just growing in America - it’s growing worldwide.

Today’s election results so far have been a blow to theoretical democracy in America… The pro Israel lobby spent $34 million to defeat Rep. Thomas Massie and elect Trump’s pro-Israel, pro pedophilia candidate. As long as Trump is President, the right will be pro Israel and pro pedophilia.

First, the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act. Now, voting rights in Illinois are under attack. A right-wing group is fighting to overturn Illinois' Voting Rights Act, following the Louisiana v. Callais decision. Read my full article here: open.substack.com/pub/letsaddr...

ICE has drastically increased their immigration enforcement presence at courthouses across Illinois in the last 72 hours, even though their presence at courthouses violates Illinois law. This is a coordinated operation and we must prepare for further escalation.

Fox News: if you don’t teach your children about the benefits of capitalism, someone will teach them about the horrors of socialism. Meanwhile, Americans can’t afford basic necessities. There’s a reason why May Day rallies were the largest they’ve been in decades - the workers have had enough.

On Thursday morning, a crowd entered a conference room in Chicago to discuss one specific concept: should businesses in Illinois be allowed to boycott any country they want, or are they only allowed to boycott any country except Israel? Read my full article here: open.substack.com/pub/letsaddr...

Maine Governor Janet Mills just dropped out of the race to unseat Republican Senator Susan Collins. This is a huge win for Graham Platner, who has been leading Mills in the polls for quite a long time.

Special shout out tonight to the people of Champaign Township. At the annual meeting, residents voted 45-34 to place a referendum on the ballot this November. The question on the referendum? Do you support repealing Illinois’ anti-BDS law. Well done 👏

Trump endorsed changing the name of ICE to NICE (National Immigration and Customs Enforcement). He did this simply “so the media has to say NICE agents all day everyday.” Regardless, they’re still fascists. The important thing is ensuring that they all end up in prison.
