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."
Congratulations to the Haley Stevens campaign on their crackerjack strategy of being super islamaphobic and weirdly antisemitic to Jewish people who disagreed with her policies
the median midwestern voter loves two things: electing republicans and thwarting republican policy goals via ballot referendum
Run that on a loop in the TikTok feeds.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 17h agoTrump: "I think we should be given an A+ on the economy"
So now the next step is to find out what Capital One's months-long anti-money laundering review by professionals with decades of law enforcement experience discovered about Trump's 300+ accounts...
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · yesterdayPhang: "Capital One said, 'We don't want the business anymore of the 45th president of the United States, his businesses, his failed sons, and his revocable trust.' So you can imagine -- I am just hypothesizing... but it suggests whatever Capital One uncovered was pretty bad. Makes you wonder..."
They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.
He serves in the branch that the Constitution specifically charges with the duty of removing the President for criming.

Michigan, this is OUR moment. Vote Tuesday, August 4th.
This is the absolute best analysis of the Dem 2028 presidental primary hopefuls I"ve seen yet. Excellent. Share widely! Kudos to Ron Faucheux! www.nola.com/opinions/ron...
Ron Faucheux: Is Jon Ossoff the leader Democrats want?
Jon Ossoff is busy running for reelection this year, but some Democrats are already wondering if the young Georgia senator might be their best presidential bet in 2028, columnist Ron Faucheux writes.

The GOP goes on about protecting women in sports and then goes on to protect Max Miller.
The only other time a second-term president had approval ratings this low at this point in the cycle, he resigned a week later.
Dodgers should also trade for Paul Skenes just to be safe
Padilla co-wrote a bill that would let the public sue a sitting president to recover money taken through corruption. Yes, a sitting president. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-law...
What bugs me about Dodger Discourse is that it shifts the focus off of genuine malfeasance by other teams. The Tigers just quasi-quit on a playoff race that they're very much still in! Who did that to their fans? It wasn't Boras, Manfred, or the LAD
the wnba alienating their core audience for the sake of people who wouldn’t watch a wnba game to save their child’s life is a bold gambit, to be sure
I text a front-office member about the Skubal trade asking his thoughts and they said the funniest part about it is that the Dodgers gave up their seventh best outfield prospect
It's dangerous to go alone. Take this (the key to the locked up deodorants at CVS)
You do not get to do the whole "baseball is ruined" thing because the Dodgers gave up two serious prospects, one of whom is 100 years old, for a two-month rental. On this particular thing, your team literally could have done it if they wanted
If u lived through the McCourt era this is your reward. The owners wouldn’t cough up the money for a cliff lee rental but were paying a psychic in Boston to “think blue.”
bobo tucci@no-flashlight.bsky.social · 4d agoAll I’ll say is that this era of Dodger baseball fucking rules when you don’t have some loser in your ear complaining about how they’re ruining baseball. What a time to be alive, truly
All the payroll stuff neglects how well Friedman did in making the Rays perennial contenders. He now has access to money and builds a great farm system
I will also point out that the Dodgers trading two very good pieces with tons of control for a BorasCorp client pitcher coming off an arm injury who is going to be a free agent in three months is, purely in a vacuum, actually net positive for the *long-term* balance issue
While everyone is moaning about competitive balance, I'll remind you that no one forced the Tigers to make this deal.
Is the salary cap also going to make the Dodgers have a bad farm system?
Any team truly interested in Skubal could have beaten that package, so save the takes about the Dodgers ruining baseball.
