Vivek Ramaswamy seeks to take political advantage of the fact that his opponent was raped as a child. But to his credit, unlike many other Republican politicians, he was not personally the rapist in question.
A young man asked Abdul-El Sayed if he would disavow the Muslim Brotherhood. The tense exchange has turned into a highlight for the Democratic Senate candidate in Michigan.
Here’s what happened.
Zelenskyy says Starlink restrictions REMAIN in Ukraine, crippling interceptor drones and military operations.
He says Ukraine has evidence the restrictions are DELIBERATE after testing Starlink systems in the EU, where they worked perfectly at speeds that cause connections to fail inside Ukraine.
The owner of X posted a bunch of Kremlin propaganda and then turned off Starshield in Ukraine to help Putin murder thousands of Ukrainian civilians. Here's why Bluesky has an intellectual diversity problem.
RAPE GANG OR ICE? BOTH?
No ID. No badges. No uniform. Masks. An unmarked van. How are you supposed to know?

This is the shit we grew up hearing about in dictatorships. Now it’s here.

We must be prepared for that traitor in the White House to do ANYTHING to fuck with the midterm elections this year. Anything. And when he does, we must be prepared to do anything to defend our elections.
When they eventually make a movie about this time, please don't put the male politicians in good suits. IMO, the ugly, low rent tailoring should be part of the story.
Did Maine Democrats Nominate the Wrong Jackson?
Actor Samuel's experience with snakes on a plane might have made him the perfect candidate to deal with contemporary Republicans.
Yes, the Republican party will likely destroy our country if they maintain control of Congress. But I still refuse to vote for any Democrat whose views differ in any way from mine on any issue.
Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.
According to CNN, Natalie Harp once jumped into the trunk of an SUV after getting into a screaming match with other Trump staffers after being denied a seat in the motorcade heading to a Trump trial appearance.

This is Natalie Harp, the close aide to President Trump. These clips are from 2021 when she worked at OAN. She ended her program with a daily Bible quote. Sometimes she swapped out the Bible for a quote from Trump leading with "And remember what Trump said..."
A 3-year-old girl watched ICE murder her father yesterday.
We all watched Sebastian Guerrero’s final moments through our phones.
We can scroll away — but Sebastian’s 3-year-old daughter cannot.
You would think Potus falling into a deep slumber, every day, on TV, would be a bigger story....
....but Sleepy Joe....
Our media is hopelessly broken.
Reminder: If voting requires you to spend $165 on a passport, that’s a poll tax. We made those unconstitutional in 1964. The SAVE Act is voter suppression.
Deeply saddened to learn of the loss of my dear friend Satan, the Prince of Lies. Though we often disagreed about matters such as the appropriate role of torture in the afterlife, I will most remember how his quick wit and affable nature made our weekly golf outings a ritual. He will be missed.
I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure.
Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.
Musk says not a single person has died due to him axing USAID. Sadly, part of my job involves tracking aid spending. So here’s a thread with just some of the people who lost their lives because of USAID cuts
"The Americans can't get the slime out of their capital's monument pool and will arrest you for touching it," sounds like the sort of lie they'd tell us in the Soviet Union so we'd stop bitching about bread lines.
I've seen the following cycle play out a million times:
1. Progressives implement some well-meaning but flawed attempt to address a problem.
2. "Centrists" attack the flaws, with the intention of replacing it with something better.
3. RW media amplifies the attacks, creating a media din.

This was bleeding obvious from Todd Blanche's testimony, except to the 100 journalists who sprinted to their editors with a "Todd Blanche Says Slush Fund is Dead" story.
And today, Blanche got the full-time nod bc he knows journalists are painfully easy to manipulate.
President Trump just made it extremely clear that:
1) His $1.8 billion slush fund is on hold due to scrutiny, not dead.
2) He really wants it to happen.
3) The money is 100% intended for J6ers.
AI has been trained on biased data that can reinforce harmful stereotypes and spread misinformation about LGBTQ+ people, GLAAD's Sarah Kate Ellis said today at the Axios AI+ NY summit.
