So anyway, I expect all the El-Sayad stans who called both Kamala Harris and Haley Stevens genociders will, now that both women have endorsed him following his 1.3% win, say that he's tainted by the association and they can no longer support him. If they're consistent, I mean.

Trump’s disastrous war has put our troops in danger. Now he’s sending their loved ones to ICE jails. Military families deserve gratitude and support, not cruelty. And the people defending our freedom shouldn't have their families' freedom ripped away.

NEWS: My bipartisan bill to protect children from the dangers of AI-enabled toys just passed through committee 🤖 We need to address the emerging AI toy industry before it endangers our kids' safety even further. Next stop, the Senate floor.
Crashing out over *winning* & people pointing out you need to do outreach to Black & Jewish people is unhinged behavior & y’all need to touch grass. That is deeply unsettling levels of parasocial.
The actual lesson getting lost here is not to spend most of your time shitting on the people you'll need in the future.
And shit like that is why I’m not gonna speak over Jewish people who say they can’t get to a place where he’s harm reduction for them. It’s up to him to sway them & cut off these gross narratives instead of fueling them.
If he doesn’t significantly improve re Black & Jewish voters he will lose. If he doesn’t humble himself & change his tune re how he’ll post memes for the future 2028 nominee & can’t pass legislation w/o the Senate, he can’t be surprised if those voters don’t see his singular seat as harm reduction.
It’s being treated as “seismic” in the post-mortems already but he won less counties than his opponent, isn’t even at 49%, & clearly got carried by white voters that his opponent arguably hit benchmark numbers with. Detroit’s turnout was 21% & he got killed w/ absentees. There’s A LOT of work to do.
8. Stop the defeatist language when asked about what you’ll do. Don’t concede you won’t be able to pass legislation. Your primary opponent had done it. Other Dems have. 9. Actually listen to Black voters instead of paying a pastor 75k. 10. Fix your margins in the places Rogers will win.
4. Drop the astroturf-lite influencers instead of partying with them. 5. Drop Fight Agency because Platner’s consultants’ voter suppression tactics aren’t gonna help in a general. 6. Get new pollsters because he clearly bought his own emotional support polls. 7. Stop the noun/verb/aipac idiocy.
If I’m him- things I’d do immediately- 1. Disavow Piker. Run the bus over him. 2. Apologize to Scholten privately for the dogshit sexism of stans using Johnson’s shitty oppo against her. 3. Disavow “supporters” who signed up to sabotage shifts or trolled about it with millions of followers.
The NRSC has already dropped a brutal attack ad & honestly where’s the fucking lie in it? x.com/polltracker2... Because some of this HAS been floating around publicly for a while. That stupid wannabe himbo fuck Piker is fair game too frankly. He sure helped his clown friend in Missouri yesterday. 😏
I haven’t been able to find a snap poll but I’m exhausted & don’t wanna dig. If he wants to win the general he’s got a few things he could do to maybe help his odds. I’m skeptical he’ll do them but he’ll need to humble himself. Not even breaking 49%, let alone 50% is a worst case scenario for him.
Virginia did the work too. Missouri and even Kansas are sending republicans big messages
He could’ve ended his comment with that quote and we wouldn’t be here chatting about it.
🎥 NEW: The DOJ is now 0-20 in its voter roll cases. Marc Elias breaks down why federal judges have unanimously rejected the department's demands and why today's 90-day "quiet period" deadline may have shut the door on Trump's scheme just in time for the midterms👇

Abdul El-Sayed has already started firing off emails begging us evil establishment types for money. So it goes. bsky.app/profile/ecle...
The insurgent left spends the entire primary season calling Democrats the hopelessly corrupt establishment, claims every source of party revenue is tainted by evil, insists any pol who accepts that revenue is compromised, then pivots to demanding that same party revenue if their leftist faves win.

Cori Bush’s loss gives me hope that we may actually have a slate of legislators set and ready to ACTUALLY WORK… We have lost so much …wasting time and money on folks who are big on talk- low on WORK. It is going to take SOOOO much WORK to get back to baseline. Right choice was made.
Thank you, MICHIGAN! I'm so proud to be your Democratic nominee for Governor of Michigan. I'm ready to fight for your future — costs down, wages up, rights protected, and a government that works for all of us.
If you want Black voter support, then support Black voters. Don't come around only in election years and spout bullshit accolades. Get in the trenches and do the fucking work when it's time to work. 4/6
Black voters have been shit on by our fellow Americans so much that we trust no one who doesn't run with us. Black voters are some of the most progressive voters in this country. Without us, there wouldn't be nearly the progress America has witnessed over the past century plus. 3/6
It would have made so much more sense for Guadagnino to adapt this, and Murphy to remake American Psycho (giving me two reasons not to watch). On the other hand: now I know someone is named Igby Rigney, so that's fun.
Didn’t he express sympathies with the guy who drove into the Michigan Synagogue?
YOU need to address the rampant antisemitism & racism in your movement. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social, IF you win, you need to clean this shit up. As an independent voter & in Colorado, I SEE this on your party w my own eyes.
