The most glaring double standard in American politics today is that if a Democrat said 1/10th about GOP-leaning areas what this guy says about cities on the daily there'd be a media dogpile so swift and vicious there'd be nothing left of their bones for the hyenas to pick at.

Trump: "You see it in the blue states run by Democrats -- everything is filthy dirty all the time. The cities stink The sidewalks are loaded w/horrible stuff. I don't want to use the term bc my wife hates it. She hates it when I imitate no men in women's sports, when I do the weightlifter."

I don’t see how Obama can possibly consolidate the democrats behind him with this narrow a margin in the primary

That is not a question for me. I am only overly interested bc I grew up in Ann Arbor. I live in Milwaukee now. I don’t see AES moving to be a consensus candidate with the veracity required to overcome barely pulling off a win with a plurality.

OH DOES VOTE SHAMING NOT MAKE A CONVINCING ARGUMENT????

My friend once played a goblin character in D&D that had no combat skills and everything in stealth and performance and after the Minotaur in the group beat all the bad guys to death, he would run out and proudly stand on top of all the corpses and give a speech. It never got old.

Vice President Kamala Harris endorses Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate in Michigan. “This was a hard-fought Democratic primary, and Michiganders were lucky to have such inspiring leaders step up in this moment.”

Putting these @ettingermentum.bsky.social posts here mainly because "One day we will get you that free childcare for your children with names from the Titanic manifest and you will deserve it more than anyone has ever deserved anything" is a perfect sentence.

the City of Boise's increasingly aggressive campaign against the state's repeated attempt to ban pride flags flown by cities is extremely funny

rev. howard arson@theophite.bsky.social · 5d ago

i have never seen a higher density of pride flags than in Boise

El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."

a reason that Stevens lost and other AIPAC candidates are losing despite the huge infusions of money is that Dem voters don't want to vote for a candidate who is funded by the same org who will immediately turn around and fund the Republicans

AIPAC: "Our members remain determined to ensure that voters reject Dr. El-Sayed and his radical anti-Israel agenda in November."

it's very very funny that KHive is significantly to the right of Kamala Harris herself.

The Jon Stewart interview with Fetterman is enraging Jon is like desperately, as a Jewish man, begging this stupid ogre to have an ounce of empathy for other human beings and he cannot do it

please keep khive in your thoughts during these trying times 🙏💙

NO! “The Arabs” didn’t cost the Democrats the 2024 election! Fuck you for falling for propaganda A small handful of people saying “well I’m going to vote for trump” isn’t the action of a million people

The ADL is really funny cause they go “we stand against all hate” meanwhile they literally illegally spied on anti-apartheid activists on behalf of the apartheid South African government and had to settle and pay out to the activists.

LOMBARDO: So I know the pastor spoke about Officer Abdelnabi-- TRUMP RALLY CROWD: *Boooooo* LOMBARDO: No. We're not booing him. He's the officer that passed away here recently

An actually underrated potential positive for Dems in light of Abdul’s victory is that it gives traditionally centrist or otherwise poor Dems on Palestine on an easy out for polarizing against AIPAC and pro-Israel politics— they’re trying to cost Dems the Senate.

El-Sayed: "We've been talking about an illegal apartheid regime for a very very long time, and that supersedes Netanyahu itself. So I just think we need to treat Israel the way we would treat any other country that behaved the way Israel is behaving."

For the people that don’t understand: being a capitalist is owning the means of production, NOT participating in the system of capitalism. Sure, you can be an *aspiring* capitalist or pro-capitalist, but even most people that make a ton of money aren’t actually capitalists themselves.

Man it's so funny when James Carville threatens to leave the Democratic party, like oh no, now the party might have candidates who are actually popular with their constituents and have popular policy positions and win elections what are we going to do noooo don't

They are truly scared of all Muslims. Like, deathly afraid.
