Just an aging Boomer who still thinks Nazis are the bad guys. I am as free as I choose to be, and I choose Pre-MAGA freedom. The issue of all my issues is me. #NoSurrender #ETTD #FATM #NoKings #Elbowsup
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.
On one hand, it's a good thing CBS finally told the truth. On the other hand, CBS can still go fuck themselves. Bullshit artist Bari Weiss and the Ellison family, even with all their money, can't buy back credibility. And smart Americans will never forgive them for what they did to Stephen Colbert.
UPDATE: CBS News reverses course, airs story on 9/11 families supporting Mamdani
Last week, CBS News New York falsely reported that “thousands of 9/11 victims’ families are asking New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani not to attend this year’s solemn remembrance ceremony.” The articl...

El-Sayed: "Mike, I'm gonna say it right now, I know you're gonna say no because you're a coward: Five debates, alright? ... By the time we're done, you are not gonna have safe quarter from people holding you accountable to what you've done for them here in Michigan. We will send you back to Florida"
When your party leader is a president with historically low approval ratings, who has raised prices through tariffs and wars, uses disaster relief and science grants to punish states that didn’t vote for him, and has agents shooting people in the streets, this is what you do.
How come Mitch McConnell is still getting paid to be a senator, but Lindsey Graham, John McCain, and Ted Kennedy are not?
To my fellow Veterans who continue to support this rotting sack of garbage, who posts fake images of himself with Generals Patton and MacArthur - even suggesting he is more decorated - I say this: Did you ever have honor or decency? If you did, what the hell happened to them?
The rank of general is not a costume. It is earned through service, sacrifice and the responsibility of leading troops. Donald Trump avoided the draft five times. Now he posts AI images of himself beside Patton and MacArthur. He can play general. I retired as one. Leadership Matters!!
General Bone Spurs McRapist: “Hey you guys—whoever you are—-did you know that ‘draft dodger’ has a D in it? Most people don’t know that.”
El-Sayed: "If all Mike Rogers got is that 'his name is Abdul, and my name is Mike,' you're gonna be surprised how many people are like, 'Yeah, but that's the Abdul who wants to bring down the price of my groceries and make sure I got healthcare. So yeah, I like Abdul over your Mike from Florida.'"
In a country with a president who is such a destructive sore loser, politicians who are both helpful and gracious in defeat is a greatly appreciated novelty.
A lot of white Americans seem to think that all Muslims are responsible for 9/11, and really, that every non-white group is responsible for anything bad anyone from that group has ever done
Waking up to Sharia Law in NYC is crazy. Knicks won, crime is down, 2,000 toddlers are going to school for free, parents got “date night” with nyc babysitters, they’re building housing on city land, small businesses are saving money and selling ice cream. Its sunny out i should go get one.
El Sayed’s Win last night was not a Surprise. Well done Michigan!
Another GOP incumbent not seeking re-election. They’re all panicking about the midterms.
Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
NEWS: Rep. Chuck Edwards (R-NC) just dropped out of his re-election race at 3:32 a.m.m. He said he’s done running but will finish out his term. This after the House Ethics Committee found “substantial reason to believe [he] violated House Rules related to sexual harassment and hostile workplaces.”
“The first time Miller shared the folder, it contained private images of Miller and Ms. Moreno's daughter and left her name unredacted. At least one of those images could be considered Child Sexual Abuse Material (SAM) because the daughter's genitals appear to be visible. ...
Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
You could have voted no on Blanche. Idiot.

Rudy Giuliani… c’mon down. You’re the next contestant on Who Wants to Be US Attorney for DC?
The whole point of the Bill of Rights is to protect the only true minority - the individual. It limits the governments power to harm the individual. The whole constitution is designed to limit the governments power.
