In 2022, Sean Parnell had to suspend his campaign for PA Senate before the Republican primary because a judge awarded custody of his three children to his ex-wife. She had testified about "many incidents" when he physically abused her and their children. A judge found Parnell "less credible."

It's interesting that Lindsey Graham never muted his criticism of Russia in alignment with the MAGA/oligarch narrative.
Russia issued an arrest warrant for Graham in 2023.

I wish to remind my fellow Americans:
Ronald Reagan = really, really bad
Jimmy Carter = really, really good
I suggest malabsorption of this basic factual dynamic has wrought terrible, tragic damage in this country and in the world.

we are not “self-hating jews”; we are not antisemites; we are proud jews who also believe in the human rights of palestinians. we have proved those things can and do very much coexist, something that seemed impossible not long ago. we are a constituency and we have a voice.

Here is the most powerful man in the world sleeping through a public function because he was up all night doing who knows what (nothing good, for sure). Embarrassing, dangerous, disqualifying, unprecedented.

In America, you can go from cradle to grave as a Christian without exhibiting a single Christian grace, and expect your descendants to do the same without a second of self-reflection.

We’re both proud Jewish New Yorkers. But there are sharp & clear differences between us on Israel/Palestine.
For example, Dan Goldman marched alongside war criminal Bezalel Smotrich yesterday, who called it “just & moral” to starve Gaza. I did not.

Another reminder: if there exists *any* class of people who don't have due process rights, then *nobody* actually has due process rights because the government can always just say you're in that class.
A US-born woman born was confronted by sheriff deputies in Louisiana who were convinced her ID and social security card were fakes. They turned her over to ICE, who shackled her & took her an hour away. Even after a lawyer convinced ICE of the woman's citizenship the sheriff says they did no wrong

This is flatly unacceptable. Itamar Ben-Gvir is a criminal that should be arrested and subject to international law enforcement
The woman in this video is Caitriona Graham, an Irish citizen.
This is how our citizens are being treated by Israel, having been abducted in international waters, trafficked to a third state and now experiencing humiliation, stress positions, aggression and violence.

This car costs $8500. Not a typo. Less than 10 racks. And you don't have to put gas in it.
But we can't have it in the US, because we'd rather have racism and argue about solved problems like birthright citizenship, and should Black people be allowed to vote.
So you get Cybertrucks instead. Enjoy!
