The government confirmed the death of Daniil Peredria, son-in-law of the head of the Russian Aerospace Forces, who died in an explosion at a Moscow restaurant. Additionally, a major-general was secretly buried, both casualties arising from a recent terrorist attack. 7/7

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"

"Electability" - that's MAGA's argument. It says that certain kinds of Democrats are unacceptable to voters when we all need to be repeating that voters are turning out to send MAGA packing - anywhere and everywhere.

Oh just super! Now North Korea is helping Russia against Ukraine. Why not? Now will the stable genius shoot off fire-and-fury threats or engage in more love-letter diplomacy? Or maybe he will just be too busy golfing, slapping his face on everything in DC, and scheming to meddle in the midterms… 🫤

Former Republican Sen. Jeff Flake just endorsed Jon Ossoff for Senate in Georgia. "Character matters. And I want someone in that seat who takes the institution seriously and will protect the institution."

Former GOP Sen. Jeff Flake backs Jon Ossoff, saying ‘character matters’

It’s bad. Ukraine is still effectively hitting both inside Russia and occupied Crimea almost daily, but Putin (as usual) is targeting population centers instead of legitimate military targets.

Klobuchar responds: "None of my opponents on this stage condemned what ICE did. Not a word. Two innocent people were killed, shot in the back. We had many people arrested when they weren't supposed to be arrested, and we need reform to ICE."

Every single Republican candidate for governor of Minnesota (including Mike Lindell!) makes clear that if Trump tried another Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities, they would support his efforts to brutalize residents

An animating trait of Democrats this past year has been, yes, they hate Trump, but they are PISSED at their party leadership. Michigan is the perfect microcosm of the Democratic electorate. It has young people, older Black church ladies and union workers. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Progressives leave primaries as victors - but its not the night they hoped for

Abdul El-Sayed pulled off a victory for the left thanks to Democratic voter frustration. But it was not on the level progressives wanted, Eric Garcia writes

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 🙏

Fox Propaganda wanted President Obama in jail for ObamaCare and called President Biden a dictator for trying to erase student debt, but haven’t said one word about the orange felon trying to fund Jan 6 terrorists, protecting pedos or committing money laundering. Funny how that works.
