“Where are you going?”
“To find my mother.”
“Your mother’s dead son. She was killed by a Tusken Raider with 38 prior arrests, who was let out on cashless bail, by a woke district attorney.”
If this terrorist loving, antisemitic POS wins I’ll never forgive the Democratic Party for not disavowing him. No Democrat, from the top of the ticket down to local library commissioners, will ever get my vote.
Asked about the indictment, @AbdulElSayed defended the perpetrators: “It's a lot more about what you're advocating for that gets you indicted or not indicted, rather than what you did.”
Sure.
When asked about the one who worked for him, the campaign story/dates changed 3 times.

Haley Stevens was going to do a Democratic unity rally with Abdul El-Sayed and James Clyburn where she was going to encourage her supporters, many of whom have serious reservations about El-Sayed, to vote for him.
This was very important for El-Sayed, because Stevens is popular among Jewish and black Michigan Democrats and Clyburn is an icon among black voters nationwide. El-Sayed has weakness with both of these groups and needs to shore them up going into election day.
Stevens's condition was that he make an unambiguous, unqualified condemnation of the antisemitic rhetoric his friends, supporters and surrogates have been using, including in ads run in Michigan.
El-Sayed refused to do this, and instead asked Stevens not to appear at the event. At that point, Stevens realized that he was not interested in unity with her or her supporters and that she could no longer support him for Senate.
El-Sayed is an antisemite. He is friends with antisemites Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur. He will not condemn them. He will not condemn the awful things they say.
He has had multiple opportunities to condemn their hateful rhetoric, and he always says: "He is not part of a campaign, nobody speaks for me but me, and I'm not here to talk about that."
That's not good enough. If that is how a Republican talked about Nick Fuentes or Richard Spencer, it would be the biggest controversy in the race. The fact that so many Democrats are willing to tolerate this from Abdul El-Sayed is an indictment of the entire party.
There is no coalition that can include both the Jewish Democratic members of Temple Israel and supporters of the Hezbollah terrorist who tried to murder their preschool children. Abdul El-Sayed made a decision about who he wanted in his tent.
Haley Stevens was late to realize it, but it is admirable that she finally decided to be an upstander instead of a bystander. No Nazis in the US Senate.

It’s Islamophobic to call out someone who speaks at a mosque where they call America the "great satan" and call for the annihilation of an entire people? It’s Islamophobic to be concerned he can’t condemn terrorist groups who kill Americans? It’s Islamophobic to ask why he campaigns with someone who says America deserved 9/11 and is worse than Al Qaeda?
I’m so sick of democrats playing stupid. It’s not racist or Islamophobic to ask candidates where they stand and we have every right to call them out when they objectively hate America and everything it stands for. Haley Stevens is a Patriot and the Democrat leadership is weak. They don’t deserve to represent America in any way, nor do they deserve to be in this country

If you listen carefully it’s a misplaced anger at his own parents for not making him feel worthy that turned into raging jealousy of other children who had parents that lifted them up and poured into them. He’s projected all of that onto white people. He needs to mend his heart before thinking about running for any office. White ppl haven’t hurt him. He knows exactly who did. Notice how he doesn’t get the satisfaction he was craving when the interviewer simply anchors himself & doesn’t validate that experience. We should all do more of this. Don’t validate anyone’s experience for the sake of temporary bonding.

Slavery was an evil in which people from every continent and region participated. We should be honest about the whole history, not select the parts that are politically convenient today, especially given Britain's leading role in ending the transatlantic slave trade.
If Caribbean countries are asking Britain for a formal apology for Britain’s role in the transatlantic slave trade, will they also be asking the same of the descendants of African kingdoms, rulers and merchants who captured, sold and profited from the trade?
On demands for reparations, whether through cash or debt relief, we have been down this track before. Twenty-five years ago, Jubilee 2000, Drop the Debt and Make Poverty History argued that cancelling the debts of poorer countries would give them a fresh start. More than $100 billion of debt was eventually written off, but many of those countries have since built up even bigger debts. Labour are already spending too much on Britain's welfare state, now is not the time for Andy Burnham to be providing global welfare.
There is no reason British taxpayers today should be held financially responsible for things that happened generations before any of us were born. And I have even less patience for political elites in commonwealth countries who don’t know how to make their own citizens prosperous now looking for another opportunity to blame Britain.
As Prime Minister, Andy Burnham should be Britain’s greatest defender. Instead, he is writing articles saying we need to confront our history (as if we haven't done enough of that) and considering another formal historical apology. Tony Blair already expressed Britain’s deep sorrow and regret for our role in the slave trade nearly twenty years ago. There is no need to do so again.
This is all another navel-gazing distraction. The Commonwealth should be looking forward, not endlessly backwards. That means economic partnerships to make us all richer and deeper military and security cooperation against common threats. If every Commonwealth summit becomes an exercise in presenting Britain with demands for cash then we need to start asking if it is worth the effort.

Does Margaret actually believe that six members of my family serving NH at the local, state and federal level is an effort to confuse? (We call it public service). I think what voters are actually confused about is whether Margaret Brennan works for CBS News or as spokeswoman for the Democratic Party. Lazy, dumb AND biased - all at once!
Fox is reporting that CBS's Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan was one of those objecting to pursuing the Peltola scandal. Brennan allegedly compared a decoy candidate to voters being confused by different Sununu brothers who have run for office... foxnews.com/media/bari-weiss…

FACT: In the last 20 years, Israel has had 10 elections (incl. the one today). The Palestinian Authority has not had a single one during that time.
Hello all you democratic warriors, where are you?

RFK on Christian genocide in the ME:
“Egypt was a Christian country. Libya was a Christian country. Algeria was a Christian country. Iraq was a Christian country. Lebanon was a Christian country."
The Christians have been expelled. These are genocides.”

Our sheriffs are sounding the alarm, and Governor Healey needs to listen.
When 12 of our 14 sheriffs raise serious concerns about legislation that will impact public safety, those warnings should not be ignored. These are the professionals on the front lines who understand the challenges of keeping our communities safe.
When individuals charged with serious violent crimes can be released without advance notification to federal authorities, we need to examine whether the law is putting public safety at risk. This should not be a partisan issue, and Governor Healey and state lawmakers need to listen to our sheriffs and work with them to address these concerns before creating potential gaps in public safety.
As governor, I will lower the temperature, work closely with our sheriffs, police chiefs, and law enforcement professionals to strengthen cooperation and put the safety of Massachusetts residents first.

Worst apartheid ever.
The Islamist who helped form Israel’s last coalition government is back at the polls today with his hijabi wife, casting his ballot in another democratic Israeli election in which he may well end up playing kingmaker.
