Just saw someone describe el Sayed's primary win as "seismic." Can someone explain to me how winning with a margin of less than a point is "seismic?" Does the meaning of words matter anymore? (Pic of Secretariat in the 1973 Belmont Stakes to illustrate what a seismic victory really looks like.)

Winning by 15,000 votes is not a mandate for the party. Remember that. Also, fuck McMorrow for dropping out when she did.🫠 And I will block anyone blasting in here supporting their landlord candidate.
Oh, how magnanimous of you. Fuck off, you motherfucker.
So hey, misuse of a candidate's campaign data is illegal. Maybe Climate Defiance should be reported to the FEC and the IRS and lose their 501(c)3 status.
I'm not voting for antisemitic nazi trash, I don't care what party they're claiming/using & which influencers endorse them. Besides, I was told by leftists that candidates need to earn my vote & or I should withhold it. On principal. So that's what I'll be doing moving forward.
How do y'all feel about Jacob Soboroff? I've found him to be agnostic about the DSA vs. establishment discourse, his reporting is interesting, and I dig his look. 110% better than Hayes.
The U.S. Constitution begs to differ.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
DOJ is now 0-20 in cases to obtain state voter files. Here is the list: Arizona California Colorado Connecticut Illinois Kentucky Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island Virginia West Virginia Wisconsin
This is misleading. If you say the Rhine’ s “water levels drop to lowest level since 1880,” that implies that the river was this dry in 1880. But 1880 is just when we started keeping records! So what you need to say is: the river is at its lowest level since records began.

Moderate Democrat Bobby Pulido is up by 6 over incumbent Republican Monica De La Cruz in TX-15. Recalled 2024 vote is Trump +15. But will Pulido get anywhere near the level of coverage the national media gives to the DSA? Nope.
More reasons to vote out Greg A-Butt and vote for Gina Hinojosa for governor of Texas..
In other words, going from a constitutional right (Roe) to a constitutional state by state decision (Dobbs) to a constitutional rule of no abortions. What is the DOJ/legal underpinning for that? There isn't one. Ladies & Gentlemen, your lawless soon-to-be AG. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

Why is this going to be just fine and not hypocritical at all? HARRIS CAMPAIGNED WITH LIZ CHENEY. SHE WAS A RIGHT WING REPUBLICAN despite changing zero progressive policy on her platform AOC talks to MAHA and PANDERS to those killers. Yes, killers. Their misinformation kills. Totally fine?
There is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.
Tlaib. a Congresswoman from the state of Michigan refused to support the Democratic nominee for president in 2024 and pushed her community & other Arab/Muslim all across this country to vote against Harris and support DT Now this woman expect Black voters to reward her for the damage caused.HELL-NO.
Exploiting a loophole in the ethics ordinance by resigning as health director & then becoming a contracted consultant. Quelle surprise. waynecountywatch.substack.com/p/el-sayeds-...

This is just a small sample of what we're going to see from leftists going forward. Bullying, aggression toward candidates should not be tolerated. They've weaponized "AIPAC" more than they've denounced fascim and all the ugliness trump has brought with it. We must not tolerate that.
This is what the online left, who support El-Sayed, have been doing to Stevens, McMorrow, and their supporters for the last 16 months. They (and many, like here, are not from Michigan) turn every forum, online and in-person, into a toxic platform for bullying and abuse. www.wcmu.org/local-region...

Here's the deal: Abdul El-Sayed will not be a Senator. He may be the Democratic Nominee (though the Polling says otherwise), but if he wins the nomination, he will lose the General by large numbers. So do Michigan Democrats want a chance to win, or do they want to throw it away? Their choice.
