“THAT’S THE BEST YOU GOT?” Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social reacts to Republicans using his full name in a clearly bigoted effort to gin up racist, Islamophobic fear around his candidacy.
The Tennessee Holler
@thetnholler.bsky.social
Yelling the truth about Tennessee.
🤷🏼 @timmiller.bsky.social: “Trump has lost touch with MAGA base — between the war, economy, gas prices ⬆️ , putting gold everywhere… he doesn’t even seem to have a plan. I’m not that surprised his numbers have slipped. Even his supporters are like ‘how can I get excited about this anymore?’”
🔥 @shawnryan762.bsky.social to Megyn Kelly: “I don’t see any positivity coming out of the Trump admin— It seems very self-serving… he had Blanche do the dirty work so his family could never be audited? WTF is that? Is that serving the people? NO. And Fox sure as fuck isn’t reporting it.”
A 4th data center? WTF? This is why Elon targeted Memphis for xAI — he knew local officials would let him do whatever he wanted regardless of the community’s health/input. @mayorpaulyoung 🤔 (Even after canceling the promised water facility) More: www.instagram.com/p/DblVyoMgKO...
🔥 Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social: “Mike Rogers served special interests in Congress. He made $14 million after leaving and moved to Florida to play golf… politics has changed. You have to stand for something. We look forward to sending him back to Florida to golf with his buddies.” ⛳️
🔥@abdulelsayed.bsky.social truth rocket 🚀 on @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social: “I’m committed to Jewish safety— I just don’t believe in unconditional military aid to any country, especially when 🇮🇱 is committing genocide/apartheid. OUR kids have a right to our tax 💰 . I believe in international law.”
Seems like a bad sign for AIPAC that here In Tennessee even Republican candidates for governor want to ride the anti-AIPAC wave Worth noting: Fritts is an extremist who wants to unconstitutionally ban Islam, have women/men/docs potentially face the 💀 penalty for abortions, etc
In other news - Rollin Horton and the council passed eminent domain in NASHVILLE late last night, taking another step towards blocking the data center project planned for the property next to the zoo. (From @nonewdatacenters )
Republicans didn’t take long to get the open bigotry going
HASAN: “Everyone is already doing ‘CaN @abdulelsayed.bsky.social uNitE the Dems’? That Q is really: can he get the people/consultants who work only for pro-🇮🇱 candidates to shut the fuck up about him being a ‘TeRrOriSt’ long enough to consolidate the base + beat Mike Rogers?”
Wild. It’s like Van Jones thinks we were all hit with the Men In Black memory eraser
🎉 Pro-tip: Look for the candidates saying things like this today
🔥 Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social : “America can do glorious things, but to love 🇺🇸 isn’t just to dress up in some colors and pretend everything’s fine. To love 🇺🇸 is to will 🇺🇸 to do the hard work of being better… we can’t control the past 250 years, what we CAN do is build the next 250.”
A massive win in the face of mountains of corporate PAC/AIPAC cash no matter the margin
🔥 Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social sets his sights on the general election: “I promise you, Mike Rogers, by the time we’re done with — you all of Michigan is gonna know who you are.”
On nights like this it’s kinda wild that @abbydphillip & @CNN don’t feel the need to mention @ScottJenningsKY’s podcast bosses at Salem Media are running a pro-Israel influence operation — and that he gets paid by them while he’s on CNN trashing Bernie, @AbdulElSayed, etc
JENNINGS: “This continued demonization of AIPAC. AIPAC is jewish Americans.” PHILLIP: “Bernie Sanders is jewish.” JENNINGS: “That doesn't absolve him…”🤔 lol ok Scott Jennings (From @acyn.bsky.social )
