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?"

Sanders: The irony is that the proper criticism of communism is that the Soviet Union was an authoritarian society.  And then you’ve got the most authoritarian president in the history of this country. So I suppose when he says, “I’d be a great communist,” yeah, I think there’s some truth to that

The Texas law firm chosen to represent immigrants has no specialty in immigration law. But in a fascist state, you reward your co-conspirators. BTW, Texas being a border state has plenty of immigration lawyers. wisconsinexaminer.com/2026/08/05/r...

Funny how almost all of Trump’s “wins” happen at his own golf courses.

Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

Great spending the day at Farmfest hearing directly from MN farmers and talking about the work we're doing to stand up for our farms. From winning the fight for right to repair against John Deere to taking on corporate abuse, there's more work to do, and I'm proud to keep fighting alongside them.

El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."

Michigan Democrats chose Abdul El-Sayed because he’s a fighter willing to stand up to the tyrant in the Oval Office. Corporate Democrats like Chuck Schumer aren't up to the task because they won’t bite the corporate hands that feed them.
