A really funny complaint about the Zohran discount grocery store idea is that non-poor people could use it when there’s a grocery store half a mile from my grocery store that has everything cost 20% more that rich people go to because they don’t want to shop with normal people.

"The ad is just a taste of the onslaught to come—one that will traffic unabashedly in lies and anti-Muslim tropes. The AIPAC-funded attacks of the last few months will seem modest by comparison."👇

"Literally minutes" after El-Sayed was declared the winner, Republicans posted an ad that describe him "as the 'most radical Senate candidate in America,'" used "his full name, Abdulrahman El-Sayed, then accused him of supporting terrorists and ended with his refusal to disavow Hasan Piker."

CNN: During the war with Iran, the US military has burned through nearly four-fifths of its THAAD missile inventory compared to pre-war numbers and roughly half of its Patriot interceptors since the start of the war.

We’ve depleted our missiles. Trump was unaware. Hegseth thought his deputy told Trump. It’s partly why Trump had to call of his escalation against Iran. Other than that, everything’s fine: wapo.st/4hQVTF0

Trump, Hegseth clashed at Camp David over Iran missile depletion concerns

At a Camp David summit this weekend, President Trump demanded answers from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over extreme munitions shortages.

The U.S. Attorney believes that a "public rebuke" and an internal review are sufficient for egregious prosecutorial misconduct that put my family through hell. My seven-year-old is still having nightmares and panic attacks related to this case. Justice requires transparency and accountability.

Indeed, for 2026 Democrats, the "fringe opinion" is unwavering support for Israel. Centrists who pretend to be gobsmacked that someone criticizing Israel's genocide in Gaza might do well in a Democratic primary are announcing that they don't know anything about the current state of politics.

#StupidSuez@diplomatofnight.com · 11h ago

I mean this sincerely: I think pro Israel people really need to begin internalizing that this is not a fringe opinion anymore and in fact is very statistically likely to be the average view of any brown Democratic candidate for office or any candidate under the age of 50

NEW: Pro-voters asked the Texas Supreme Court to block Galveston County from moving some local candidates to new districts under a revised map drafted after the primary elections. They warned that, if not stopped, the move could be replicated across the state to undermine the will of voters.

If allowed to proceed, it would likely be the first time Texas voting maps are changed between the primary and general elections.

Isn’t this the kind of masculinity the GOP idolizes above all else? El-Sayed could stuff Pete Hegseth and RFK Jr. into the same locker. Maybe that is why they’re so scared of him.

El-Sayed attacked Rogers as a Trump stooge and accused Republicans of trying to use his faith and full name - Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed - to scare voters.

AIPAC is the biggest source of Republican money in Democratic elections, and now they are making clear they will spend even more to defeat Democrats in November. They advocate for policies the vast majority of Democrats viscerally disagree with. No Democrat should be taking money from AIPAC.
