So anyway, I expect all the El-Sayad stans who called both Kamala Harris and Haley Stevens genociders will, now that both women have endorsed him following his 1.3% win, say that he's tainted by the association and they can no longer support him. If they're consistent, I mean.

Graph showing results of Michigan's Democratic primary for U.S. Senate: E-Sayad 48.8%, Stevens 47.3%, and McMorrow, who was no longer running, 4%.

Talent perhaps as an influencer, but not as a Congresswoman. She has zero accomplishments. She has passed zero legislation. She has no law degree and no knowledge of how to pass legislation. It's quite embarrassing. Underwood, Neguse & Levin have all passed 100 bills together.

This hits. My TiaHermana. I spent years on DKos learning from this incredible woman. Then on Twitter, and here. I hold her in my heart and soul, grateful to have had her in my life, if only virtually. May the universe welcome a bright and vibrant star when her journey is complete. 💔😢✊🏾

@deniseoliver-velez.bsky.social There is a story up at dkos about this amazing woman. Remember her place in our history please. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

The NYT obituary of Lindsey Graham makes no mention of his effort to overturn the 2020 election by calling Georgia’s secretary of state to intimidate him into manufacturing votes for Trump. The Times, like all news media, is GOP propaganda erasing Republicans’ history as election deniers

Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina and Staunch Trump Ally, Dies at 71
Mr. Graham died of a “brief and sudden” illness on Saturday evening, his office said. Over more than two decades in the Senate, he consistently pushed for the use of U.S. military power overseas.Over his Senate career, Mr. Graham led two influential committees, Judiciary and Budget.

As head of the Judiciary Committee, he oversaw the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court after the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. He also played a critical role during the 2016 fight over President Barack Obama’s nomination of Merrick Garland to the court, aiding in Republicans’ success in blocking the pick.More broadly, Mr. Graham was instrumental in advancing Mr. Trump’s effort to reshape the federal judiciary.
During his tenure at the helm of the committee, the Senate confirmed more than 200 federal judges, including Ms. Barrett, cementing one of the defining conservative judicial legacies of the Trump era.As chairman of the Budget Committee, Mr. Graham played a central role in translating Mr. Trump’s domestic agenda into legislation. He oversaw the budget resolution that allowed Republicans to advance much of the president’s sweeping tax, immigration and spending package without support from Senate Democrats.

The effort required months of negotiations among warring factions within his party before the tax package became law last year. Mr. Graham, along with Republican leaders and the Trump administration, embraced budget reconciliation as the party’s primary vehicle for enacting Mr. Trump’s agenda at a time when Republicans lacked the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster.

Those efforts became a defining accomplishment of Mr. Trump’s return to Washington with a Republican-controlled legislature, and highlighted not only the growing influence of Mr. Graham within his party but also his transformation from Trump critic into a steadfast and outspoken ally.

It's really not hard to be a decent person. I wish more white people would try it. Here's a good place to start: Just mind your own business and let others live their lives in peace. Remind yourself that the good parts of life aren't pie - there's enough for everyone.
