Trump targets El-Sayed, suggests voter irregularities after Michigan primary
President Donald Trump panned Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed in a social media post, calling the progressive Democrat a “Communist, who is not liked in Detroit,” while alleging without evidence rampant voter fraud in the state. “Wayne County (Detroit) in Michigan is one of the most corrupt voting areas in the United States, if not the World,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Wednesday . “It is strictly Third World! Miracles happen in Wayne County, including more votes being cast than there are voters, by a lot.” El-Sayed advanced to become the Democratic Party’s nominee to face Republican Mike Rogers in the November election on Wednesday, after a weaker-than-expected showing against Rep. Haley Stevens in Tuesday’s primary. Stevens conceded to El-Sayed on Wednesday morning. But far from the romp progressives were expecting — polls showed El-Sayed leading by double digits in the weeks before election day — he squeaked past the four-term House lawmaker by just thousands of votes. El-Sayed’s campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Trump’s post. On Tuesday, the Department of Justice announced that it was sending poll watchers to monitor voting sites in Detroit, Hamtramck, Lansing, and East Lansing — four heavily Democratic areas — “to ensure transparency, ballot security, and compliance with federal law.” “The Department of Justice is devoting extensive resources to ensure uniform and nondiscriminatory monitoring,” Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon said in a statement Tuesday. “We appreciate the cooperation of these jurisdictions in promoting trust and transparency.” But Trump still said Republicans would have to overcome fraud to get Rogers over the line in November. “The Radical Left Socialist has a real shot, and don’t discount all of those fake mail-in ballots that will 'surprisingly' show up at the last moment,” he said. “Get ready for another Rigged Election.”

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.”
🎉 Pro-tip: Look for the candidates saying things like this today
The only promise Donald Trump has kept to the American people is the “dictator on day one” promise.
#GA Did you know that Jon Ossoff spent years exposing corruption as an investigative journalist? Now in the Senate, he refuses corporate PAC money & is leading the fight to ban stock trading by members of Congress. When you don't take checks from special interests, you're free to work for families.
Every American should be clear-eyed about the fact that our lives have been a total nightmare under the Republican Party. #Pinks

This is why this is not just about Max Miller. It’s about “devout Christian” House Republican leadership who is standing with this guy because they crave power above all else. It’s the culture of MAGA and it comes straight from Trump. Vote them out.
The devil is always in the details isn't it? Imagine Congress literally giving you a forever, Get Out of Jail Free, card.
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 3d agoBREAKING: Todd Blanche has released what he calls a rescission of the slush fund (left). The last lawsuit he mentions is mine (Gill v DOJ). This doesn't change the fact that the "settlement" setting up the fund is still in effect. On the right, Blanche is LEAVING IN PLACE Trump's tax immunity.
