It is a GENIUS messaging strategy to link AI and data centers to dick swinging toxic masculinity and I want more of it.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 7h agoEl-Sayed: "Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can make himself feel a little more manly by making an AI video ... he's a guy who went back to Florida so he could lick every single boot Donald Trump owns to bet for his endorsement."
circling back to this: I am genuinely confused at what is considered disqualifying behavior for House Republicans. If Chuck Edwards needs to drop out (and he does) then so do Cory Mills and Max Miller
Jamie Dupree@jamiedupree.bsky.social · 13h agoUnder an ethical cloud over allegations of sexual harassment involving two of his female staffers, Rep. Chuck Edwards R-NC announced overnight that he will drop his bid for re-election. jamiedupree.substack.com/p/under-ethi...
An alleged pedophile promoting a book by another alleged pedophile is a professional courtesy.
While the latest headlines hint at yet another ceasefire deal, the Dept. of Defense plays games with the true number of dead & wounded. @markhertling.bsky.social delivers his blunt assessment of what's going on in Iran & why each loss of life is more than just a number. youtu.be/rTamGFJPfAU?...

Thank you, Michigan. I love you from the bottom of my heart!
Q: The president has publicly criticized Pirro for her decision to drop the reflecting pool case. Do you agree with the move to dismiss the charges? BLANCHE: *stammering word salad that doesn't answer question*
Blanche refuses to say whether he was aware that Pirro was going to drop the charges against Hearn or approved her decision
Q: What message does it send if Trump fires a US attorney because she determined there was not sufficient evidence to charge four people with a crime? BLANCHE: If he fires a US attorney, it turns out he's allowed to do that because he's the president

🔥 Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social : “America can do glorious things, but to love 🇺🇸 isn’t just to dress up in some colors and pretend everything’s fine. To love 🇺🇸 is to will 🇺🇸 to do the hard work of being better… we can’t control the past 250 years, what we CAN do is build the next 250.”
How is THIS 👇 not an issue in the Blanche confirmation? ? ? 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · 10h agoIt's funny that Jeanine Pirro brought a box of evidence to WH to persuade Trump. He wants her to consciously *throw out* exculpatory facts and *knowingly* prosecute innocent people. So facts can't persuade him by definition. Me and @barbmcquade.bsky.social on this: newrepublic.com/article/2139...
This notion that they've done anything to improve DC in any way including re: crime is ludicrous. Ask anyone who lives in DC. They've done nothing, zero, bupkis.

Q: Director Patel, any update on the Guthrie case? KASH PATEL: *walks away*
…We need to win this Senate seat, because Elissa Slotkin deserves a partner like Abdul in the U.S. Senate.”
A gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…
Is he saying he’d need more than two days to break his kid’s bones
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 9h agoNEWSMAX: Your daughter fractured her collarbone and there was a handprint on her upper chest, and it left a bruise. How did that happen? MAX MILLER: What I can tell you is I didn't do that. 9 of the 11 previous days was my ex-wife's care. What's so troubling about child protective services is ...
At this point, Kentucky isn’t being represented by a senator so much as by an office with a payroll. If McConnell can’t show up, answer questions, or cast votes, why are taxpayers still funding the fiction that he’s serving?
How come Mitch McConnell is still getting paid to be a senator, but Lindsey Graham, John McCain, and Ted Kennedy are not?
“THAT’S THE BEST YOU GOT?” Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social reacts to Republicans using his full name in a clearly bigoted effort to gin up racist, Islamophobic fear around his candidacy.
This is just rank Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism, based on the bigoted idea that there is something inherently scary about a president with the last name "El-Sayed." It is incumbent on all of us to call it out.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 8h agoJD Vance: "We don't want the next administration, whoever -- god forbid you're gonna have President El-Sayed in three years ... "
These folks are the worst. But keep it up, AIPAC. Every time you speak out, you alienate more American voters.
Leah McElrath@leahmcelrath.bsky.social · 7h ago⚠️ AIPAC out with a statement: “Our members remain determined to ensure that voters reject Dr. El-Sayed and his radical anti-Israel agenda in November.”
if he literally makes a new party called the American First Party, i will turn into the joker
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?"
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
