Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Yep. If El-Sayed frames his appeal this way, it's harder for JD Vance to pretend to be outraged about it.
Quote-posting to highlight Sargent's excellent advice for El-Sayed: say "JD, every time Trump and MAGA attack my family's religion and smear my wife for wearing a hijab, they are attacking your wife and kids, too."
This works on so many different levels, without being an attack on Vance's kids.

Let's be honest about what JD Vance is really doing here. He assumes keeping El-Sayed tied up in a dispute that highlights his Muslim heritage is an automatic plus for the GOP.
This is complicated for El-Sayed, but there's a way to turn it to his advantage:

While it bills itself as a “safe” way to register to vote, it is actually a digital surveillance machine created by Elon Musk’s super PAC.

Make no mistake—this is Mike Rogers' position on data centers. He's got up to $2.6 million invested in companies cashing in on the data center boom, all while Michiganders watch their utility bills soar.

Most of the corruption perpetrated by the Trump admin would not be possible without the complicit enabling of the Republican majorities in the House and Senate. The only way to put any check and balance on this out of control regime is to vote them out in November.

The point of a tariff is to make firms build factories at home. But if it's on Monday, off Tuesday, back on Wednesday, no one pours concrete. Chaotic tariffs give you all of the cost and almost none of the benefit.
