I suspect that taking out Hasan is a directive straight from Bibi. Oldheads may not know who the fuck he is, but his sway with Gen Z & under has made him a primary target. The opportunity to use him to take the left out @ the knees, is too good to pass up. 8-20-26 truthout.org/articles/hou...

House Democrat Suggests DSA Members in Congress Shouldn’t Get Security Clearances

Nearly all of Rep. Jared Moskowitz’s remarks since his primary win have focused on his disgust for DSA.

It's disappointing that Jon Ossoff hopped onto the Hasan Piker is an antisemite express with the rest of the corporate Democrats. It's equally disappointing to learn that Ossoff has accepted nearly a million dollars in campaign donations from AIPAC and other pro-Israel sources.

All the exact limp noodles that criticize left voters for not genuflecting hard enough for centrist candidates are championing aipac politicians for not supporting the left candidates in general elections. Like all right-wing ideologies, American "centrism" prefers fascism to healthcare

Let's start with what the candidates actually support. Crazy idea I know. - get money out of politics - give everyone healthcare - raise the minimum wage - end funding for genocide - end the "endless wars" At the core of DSA is a staunch commitment to democracy. Hence the D. The S is great too.

Quite a bit. Start with “cancel Thanksgiving” “proximity to whiteness” “old white people at Culver’s.” And the DSA platform is a great read. Enjoy.

Here is the message: - Get money out of politics - Raise the minimum wage - Tax the rich - Free healthcare - Free childcare - End genocide - End war When voters hear what these candidates are actually fighting for, they won't "create a firebreak to put a stop" to it, they will flock to it.

If people get to understand what the DSA and its candidates stand for, El Sayed's arguments may very well have an impact on other elections. Voters may create a firebreak to put a stop to extremism in the Democratic party before it becomes too late like it did with the Republican party.

"El-Sayed overcame a nearly $65 million onslaught of outside money and an establishment that had rallied around Stevens. Popular Gov. Gretchen Whitmer endorsed Stevens late last month — a move seen as a last-ditch effort to stop a rising El-Sayed."

The point of a political party is to get good things done. Not just to beat the other side. But you also can't win if you don't deliver the goods. So Democrats do have to be progressive if they want to A) win more elections and B) justify their existence by actually doing things that voters want.

I’m a bit of a moderate Dem, but now that the primary is over I offer my full support to El-Sayed. Period. MAGA must be defeated at the polls. Vote blue in November.

"El-Sayed’s victory is significant given that Stevens had the backing of a number of established Democratic figures, including Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, outgoing Democratic Sen. Gary Peters and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-New York)."

Now that Abdul El-Sayed is the nominee, we are going to see the biggest hypocrisy from the "vote blue no matter who" crowd we have seen yet. Everyone knows this is a big test of how leftists like Abdul can perform in purple states. Those invested in "third way" centrism will want this test to fail.
