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.'"

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.
"I've been so waiting for a time when everyday people would push back and say: 'This is not working.'" Troy Jackson for ME Senate is rallying working-class voters to demand universal healthcare, affordable childcare, and reproductive rights. Now is our time to push back.
A sweet little girl with autism brought her stuffed puppy to the dog show. One of the judges noticed her, came over, and asked if she’d like to show her dog too. What followed was pure magic. Original post
Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.
Democrats are fighting to protect and expand Social Security benefits, funded by the wealthiest Americans paying their fair share. Republicans pretend the only solution is benefit cuts. When they see how unpopular that is, they say let's set up a commission to make the cuts. - @warren.senate.gov
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?"
Cool, cool. We’re basically out of ATACMS and PrSM, and we used half our *global* TLAM supply… all for the Strait of Hormuz to still be closed?

This Thursday, SpaceX insiders will be released from their first post-IPO stock lockup and can cash out early. As I've been saying, this has all the hallmarks of a Ponzi scheme.
Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.
Sometimes people post about action films, asking what people's favorites were. Inevitably 99% of the answers (at least) are male led films. But, for me, one of the best ever was Geena Davis in "The Long Kiss Goodnight" with Samuel L Jackson's help. I'd put her badassery up against any of those guys.

Jessica was kind enough to offer to send me a copy of her new book. I’ve been clipping her for the past couple of years, and I can’t wait to read it 🙏
Any evening news coverage of this? I didn't see any tonight. Anyone show it? You'd think a bank suspecting a president of FRAUD would, you know, be a bigger story? Capital One says it closed hundreds of Trump's bank accounts in 2021 'for anti-money laundering reasons' abcnews.com/US/capital-c...

RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline
Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.
Every performer’s worst nightmare. Maria Joao Pires instantly realized she had been practicing the wrong piece. Despite that, she ended up playing the entire concerto from memory, even though it was from the previous year’s repertoire. Original post
Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
Today, for the first time in New York City history, 2,000 two year-olds received offers for FREE 2-K. A big step for those who take baby steps. A big step towards a City every New Yorker can afford.
This guy looks like a benign grampa, maybe someone who would dress up as Santa at xmas. But don't be fooled. He's the full on maga candidate for New York Governor, Bruce Blakeman. When you learn what he believes and wants to do, you realize that face is a mask to deceive as he bows to his fuhrer...
