Is it really too much to ask our political parties to stop electing men accused of assault/abuse? I

People voted for Donald because they wanted something different from a government run by billionaires and corporations. Unfortunately 77m are too uneducated to recognize the lie. Progressives are offering people -government, run by ordinary people like you for you. Fix our culture.

Honestly is anyone surprised? I'm not. This is what you get when you elect a criminal who wants to be king to be President. Project 2025 told us exactly what was going to happen. And here we are.

El-Sayed: "They think they want to use my whole name against me. Mike, listen man, If you can't say the name -- it's Abdulrahman -- keep the name out your damn mouth."

El-Sayed: "Mike, I'm gonna say it right now, I know you're gonna say no because you're a coward: Five debates, alright? ... By the time we're done, you are not gonna have safe quarter from people holding you accountable to what you've done for them here in Michigan. We will send you back to Florida"

Ce n'est pas une erreur, l'armée russe tente de détruire la totalité des monuments constituant le capital culturel du pays. Histoire de l'acculturer et pouvoir raconter n'importe quoi sur son histoire.

SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏

Office Hours: How are you coping?

#TrumpLiesAndLies Trump wanted to send an innocent man to prison to protect his lie - and cover for his no-bid contract to a friend to "Fix" the Reflecting Pool. That should scare all of us! #Rule9 #ImpeachTrump "The president reiterated his disappointment with Pirro" www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Thank you, Michigan. I love you from the bottom of my heart!

Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
