“Shande” is a word for Jews to use to refer to other Jews! Christians don’t get to use this word against Jews! I feel like I’m going out of my mind!

Tweet from Rep. Mike Lawler: “The only despicable betrayal is by Sen Schumer, a complete Shanda, who has thrown the Jewish people under the bus in his pursuit of power. 

Supporting a vile antisemite like El-Sayed, because for Chuck Schumer being a Democrat matters more than standing up for the Jewish people.”

She is, as my mother would say, a piece of work. Fuck this evasive Islamophobic bullshit. She's trying to cast as "angry" a man who stayed calm thru Fox news interviews & whose talking points are that people should have health care & govts shouldn't be bought. Welp. trackaipac.com/haley-stevens

7/29/26 — AIPAC and the Israel lobby have now spent >$35 MILLION supporting Rep. Haley Stevens, primarily via AIPAC’s United Democracy Project super PAC.

HALEY STEVENS: Anderson, this is a broader point about what's going on in our party COOPER: It's actually not. It's really just a question of why you changed your mind STEVENS I haven't cast my vote yet COOPER: So you might change your mind again?

This election is a battle between the powers that be and the powers that ought to be. The powers that be have chosen their candidate. They’ve already bought and paid for Ken Paxton. I want to be a senator for every Texan who can’t afford one.

Trump in Iowa is now associating Haley Stevens with his big lie: "Haley just went out and endorsed Mike Rogers, and Mike Rogers is apple pie. He's apple pie. And you know with this country needs? A little apple pie ... they tabulate it with their machines ... I'd love for her join the GOP."

Not lost on me within all of this is Haley Stevens proclaiming here self protector of the Jews while thinking that Jews will vote for Mike Rogers of all the nutbags that ever nut-bagged. Honestly it makes me wonder how many actual Jews she interacts with (other than her creep of a fiancé).

It’s shocking to me that a healthy 53-year-old had a stroke, but it’s relieving to hear that Chris Murphy is recovering and expected to be okay. He’s one of the most genuine people in Congress, and he never shies away from calling out the Trump organization.

“I woke up this morning and I decided to go to church, and I'm here with the person who I am voting for the United States Senate.” Haley Stevens Does Haley always go to a Black church because if not, this was using a Black church as a prop to boost a man who will work against the Black community.

Texas GOP voter: The Republican Party has been hijacked. They're not the Republican Party that I was a member of for all of my life. Reporter: Is this a vote for Talarico or against Ken Paxton? Texas GOP voter: It's a vote for Talarico in this case. He presents himself in a very positive manner.

Our safety comes from welcoming the stranger, fighting for universal human rights, and building pluralist democracy — not from endorsing neo-Nazi adjacent MAGA fanatics.

I grew up in an Orthodox Jewish home where we listened to Sir Patrick Stewart doing his one man performance of “A Christmas Carol” as our Erev Christmas minhag, which made SENSE. May his memory be an eternal blessing.

Wow — a protester yells “Haley Stevens is a traitor!” and Stevens then wraps up her news conference with Mike Rogers in a hurry
