Abdul El-Sayed’s victory in Michigan is not about socialism, it’s about fighting dictatorship. The red scare tactic is so old it should be retired forever.

fun detail from quarterly filings: SpaceX bought $295 million worth of Megapack stationary storage batteries from Tesla... without that purchase, Tesla's energy generation/storage revenue would have been flat for the quarter (energy segment revenue was just over $3b, up 13%, so just about $300m)

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.

Gonna go out on a limb here and say racist cranks who write for extremist white nationalist websites like VDARE should not, in fact, be confirmed to top roles in the Department of Justice.
SCHIFF: You told my staff you stood by your article in white nationalist website VDARE where you wrote, 'Muslim immigrants & their kids seem prone to terrorism'
C: I wrote that article in support of Trump's travel ban
S: Do you stand by it?

Instead of meeting with Epstein survivors, what did Todd Blanche do? He rushed to Ghislaine Maxwell’s prison cell, and then she got transferred to a cushier prison camp. This is not justice. It is corruption of a system meant to protect the most vulnerable.

Something real is happening in rural Iowa. Voters who backed Ernst, Grassley, & Trump are turning out for Josh Turek because they’ve finally had enough. That’s not a fluke, that’s a movement building right in front of us, and we’ve got 90 days to keep it growing.
