Has anyone seen a picture of the mystery candidate?
Adam Bonin@adambonin.bsky.social · 4h agoIf you're trying to figure out how withdrawn candidate Thomas Smith defeated Trump endorsee Amir Hassan in MI-8, and you're wondering if Islamophobia *may* have played a part, watch this ad that GOP candidate Al Lemmo ran against Hassan (who is Christian). www.lemmoforcongress.com/media

It's a tired old game for the Republicans to accuse the Democrats of being communists. The GOP-loving Chicago Tribune wrote a 1936 editorial about the Democratic convention that was headlined, "The Soviets Gather at Philadelphia."
The Democratic Party has a ton of problems these days, but one thing it does not have is a US senator and a US congressman arguing over who had ownership rights regarding a 2 year old’s stuffed bunny rabbit.
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.'"
Shoulda changed his name to Merle “Bubba” Murphy.
@literallywhonobody.bsky.social · yesterdayHonestly shocked that Trump endorsed a black man named Amir Hassan.

Trump Responds To Water System Hack Like A Domestic Abuser
The water systems in multiple US states have been targeted by hackers, leading the sitting US president to deflect, gaslight, and victim blame in lieu of being even remotely helpful.

Me here. Normie Dem, not an Islamist nor a commie, even though I'm often called that. The phobic approach of the GOP is one indicating they've got nothin'.
Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 12h agoWhen 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.

Excuse me, but this is solely a Republican problem, created and exacerbated by Trump. Democrats would actually need power to have a solution, which they do not have at the moment.
Cooper Lund@cooperlund.online · 14h agoHonest question: What's the Democratic solution to this problem? I think they need one because this is likely going to be a problem until Trump's not in office, and nobody's going to be able to put the toothpaste back into the tube.
Please read. It’s long, but well worth the investment. Then, spread this universal understanding for the benefit of all.

If she can do it, so can the rest of us. We have to unite to conquer!
Murshed Zaheed@murshedz.bsky.social · 14h agoLifting this up from @haleyformi.bsky.social as well. This is fantastic & gracious message after a bitter primary. She fought valiantly and ended the fight w/ class. I respect that. People forget how incredibility contentious Obama/Clinton primary was in 2008. That worked out ok. GO BLUE. 💙💛
The framing of these Democratic primaries by many news orgs is "how did the party let these radicals take over?" instead of "what is going on in the country and the world that leads so many people to vote this way?"
When he was Chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Mike Rogers (the Republican candidate for Senate in Michigan) publicly took the position that "you can't have your privacy violated if you don't know your privacy is violated." Colbert had some fun with that: crooksandliars.com/cltv/2013/10...

Haley Stevens was out with a gracious concession and a commitment to support Abdul El-Sayed within about one hour of the AP call in her race. If she can buck up first thing in the morning, everyone else can. That’s actual political leadership.
post malone ergo propter malone@proptermalone.bsky.social · 18h agoI meant to post this last night but if you’re mad about any of the primary results you got 24 hours to bleed, try not to say anything you’ll regret in 48, and then it’s Blue No Matter Who.
Honestly, at this point, Democrats should be thrilled with this -- Miller has set himself on fire and if the GOP wants to hold him close, so be it.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 17h agoMike Johnson tells Politico that he's standing behind Republican Max Miller — despite the "serious" domestic abuse allegations against him.
He really thinks if he says it enough he speaks it into existence.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayTrump: "Everybody saw the vandalism. All you have to do is look at the tape." (There is no tape. Trump is nuts.)
Considering how badly Republican ballot measures targeting abortion rights, public education, independence of judiciary- are getting curb stomped in - checks notes - deep red states … there are gonna be relentless think pieces in DC media bubble about toxicity of MAGA/Trump Republican brand. Right?
