Do it.

Incredible nonsense from John Cornyn. True, the harm to Epstein’s victims can’t be remedied by a “no” vote. But why should Blanche’s corrupt cover-up of the Epstein files—in violation of a Congressional mandate(!)—be rewarded by “yes”? Can’t get any more craven than this.

Cornyn justifies his support for Blanche: "That's one of those things that can't be remedied by a 'no' vote"

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.'"

With primaries behind us, it's now time for Dems to focus on winning in Nov. That'll involve something hard: establishment Dems will need to ask what they can learn from progressives, progressives will have to focus on what they can learn from centrists & both'll have to find ways to work together.

El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"

A gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…

This is wise, and hopefully his supporters and the supporters of his opponent will all model his behavior, rally together, and try to win the seat.

El-Sayed: There is so much more that unites us, however much we might disagree with our democratic opponent, there is so much more that unites us than divides us. And so to all of our supporters here tonight watching on TV—tomorrow, we begin to mend fences.

Congratulations to Abdul El-Sayed & to Michigan for putting in the hard work to overcome big money! We have a huge fight ahead but I have faith in our ability to fight for a better future for the American people! Abdul would be the first Public Health official in the Senate! #DoBetter #Pinks

Abdul El-Sayed wins Michigan’s Democratic Senate primary, notching a Midwest victory for the left

"Take it from me, this was a brutal primary. But whatever differences there were between the candidates in this race, those differences are nothing compared to the contrast in November." We still have a lot of work but this is a message that WE THE PEOPLE want change! We're here to fight! #Pinks

Another GOP incumbent not seeking re-election. They’re all panicking about the midterms.

The victims listed in the Epstein Files were children of both sexes.

The level of brainwashing Trump is able to achieve with these people is just insane

NOT razor thin, but whatever!!! AIPAC SPENT $30 MILLION TO DEFEAT EL-SAYED!!! AIPAC IS POISON!

Let's not lose sight of how abnormal this is. Trump is demanding prosecutions over Reflecting Pool fiasco even though his own DOJ has shown conclusively it isn't supported by facts or law. On the pod, @barbmcquade.bsky.social is brilliant on the bigger stakes here: newrepublic.com/article/2139...

As Trump’s effort to jail people over his failed renovation starts looking even worse, a former federal prosecutor explains why this corruption of DOJ is so dangerous—and how to fight back.

He deserves group membership.

He is a truly shameless moron

Hmmm.. and yet 28 said the same about Trump and Jake wrote a book about Biden.

Now do Trump and the endless accounts of sexual assault, Jake. Or are you still on about “Biden old!”?

El-Sayed: We live in an era where we continue to see a few very small people try to define America as being as small as they are. We can't control the past 250 years. What we can do is build the next 250

Thank you. 🙏 But shhhhh. 🎂 #TheMartinSheenPodcast 💙

#150/2026 Mayor Shaun Adams [R-NC] was charged with 6 felonies including trafficking methamphetamine and cocaine after a routine traffic stop led authorities to raid his residence and uncover an active drug stash house. Nothing says "law and order" like operating a drug empire from your own home.

Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."

From Stuart Greenberg: GOP Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis are assholes!! If they really wanted to do the right thing, they’d use their new found power to get all the Epstein Files released before voting to advance Todd Blanche. Instead they roll over, sit up and perform on cue.
