I think I've said this before, but I'll say it again. Dr. Anthony Fauci is a National Hero. Sen. Rand Paul is a National Zero.

What really tickles me with Dr. Abdul El-Sayed's win is the prospect of corporate ad blitzes fading in their capability to sway voters. Hooray for that!

If I could do polls here, I'd be asking now... Should AIPAC AIPACk its bags and get out our country's politics?

NBC is projecting Dr. Abdul El-Sayed the winner of the Michigan Democratic Senate Primary! Hooray for progress in the Democratic Party!

Now Dr. Abdul El-Sayed has passed 600K votes and maintains a 2.2% lead.

Dr. Abdul El-Sayed has surpassed half a million votes... still maintaining a greater than 3% lead, which he has maintained most of the night. Lookin' good!

I don't pray, but I am **intensely hoping for** a blowout for @abdulelsayed.bsky.social tonight.

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

As I often like to say (usually to myself)... tRump whacks at golf balls like a 3-year-old T-ball recruit.

Only one more day until they admit Mitch died. They’ll do it at 12:01am on August 4th to honor what a bastard he was.

James Talarico on Texas officially banning THC: “Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst."

Also, since I've been a Wikipedian for 22+ years, I may as well come out of that closet too. 😁 It's now mentioned in my profile. I just followed some Wikipedians as well. Let's all follow each other. Yay team!

I decided to break down and include a description of my politics in my profile. It seems to matter a lot on this site, so, there ya go. Enjoy. Unless you're a MAGAt or otherwise crazy frightwinger, and then, probably you'll gag.

i love how centrists continue to do this thing where they say “if DSA becomes more front and center in the party, republicans will run on that!” as if the right doesn’t just say absolutely anything on and run on shit like peanut the squirrel or litterboxes in school bathrooms

They cannot stop a movement. Not here in Michigan.

"[Tate's lawyer] also added in a later Instagram post that New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez 'will be the next President without the manosphere and Andrew Tate.' " Is he threatening us with a good country?

The attorney for Barron Trump’s bros, Andrew and Tristan Tate, warned Republicans of a mysterious reckoning if Trump fails to help the brothers in their legal battle against 59 rape and sex trafficking charges filed by British authorities. Isn’t that blackmail? www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

BREAKING: A reporter asked Mike Johnson at a press conference today, “Should we bother asking you any questions about Max Miller, Trump’s latest Iran deal, or his Capital One scandal, or have you not heard about any of them yet?"

tRump is not just a crook. tRump is a stupid crook. Feeds yet more into my hypothesis that tRump is an actual mob boss or otherwise intimately connected to the mob.

Maybe add middle-aged gay guys who may develop the same fetish in their dotage. In short, rawr!

Eric Ansley Díaz@geekboyeric.bsky.social · 3d ago

This weekend, tons of gay boys that are around middle school age are seeing Brand New Day, and in a decade or less, a lot of them are gonna have a mask fetish, and this movie will 100% be the reason why.

And because my state's delirious senator Rand Paul needed to (try to) save face after all his bogus investigations and allegations never went anywhere. This noxious party attack on American hero Dr. Fauci was Rand's "last hurrah" on the matter.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding at Madison Square Garden? $30 million. The amount special interests have spent against @abdulelsayed.bsky.social in the Michigan Senate race? $60 MILLION. Twice as much to try and buy one Senate seat. It’s the many vs. the money. Vote for Abdul.

Only 2 more days until Mitch McConnel is declared dead.

Maybe this is just me, but I'd support burning down the entire Republican Party just for how they have mistreated Dr. Fauci, who is easily an American hero.

This is something I very rarely do but this about a friend in crisis. My bud John from Chicago is facing potential homelessness due to a rental scam. If you could help him out with a few bucks or more, I would very much appreciate it! chuffed.org/project/1929...

Oh, this is awful. What an enormous talent. Gone way too soon. I saw Glen and Markéta Irglová in concert in Louisville the same evening Obama was giving a 2008 campaign speech at another location in the city. This happened after the release of their beautiful film "Once". Rest in Power.

I actually think the big spending for Haley Stevens will ultimately help @abdulelsayed.bsky.social as it underscores she is purchased by corporations and AIPAC, and frankly, her nerdgurl personality.
