Right on cue. The President is telling us *exactly* what he’s thinking: If his side loses, he’ll claim the election is rigged. Our elections in Michigan are safe and secure. Period. That was true when you won Michigan in 2016, lost it in 2020, and won it again in 2024. Americans are simply not as stupid as you think they are.
FUN FACT: Mitch McConnell has been on paid medical leave for 51 days now. That's over 7 weeks.
This is a week longer than the 6 weeks of maternity leave that women in the US are not guaranteed after giving birth.
Congratulations to Will Lawrence, Donavan McKinney and Dr. Abdul El-Sayed on their historic victories last night.
Abdul took on the entire billionaire class, faced more than $60 million in spending against him, and WON.
Now let's beat Mike Rogers and take back the Senate.
Vice President Kamala Harris endorses Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate in Michigan.
“This was a hard-fought Democratic primary, and Michiganders were lucky to have such inspiring leaders step up in this moment.”
“I haven’t seen that.”
The standard Mike Johnson line fell out of Marco Rubio’s mouth last month when a congressman asked if it’s okay Trump and his sons enriched themselves by billions while in office — even after being asked directly about the timing of Trump’s own stock purchases, made right before government actions that would benefit them.
Rep. Johnny Olszewski wasn’t buying it. Rubio’s been in the room. He’s seen it.
Johnson says some version of this multiple times a week — CNN even ran a supercut of him saying “I don’t know anything about that” on loop. Now it’s Rubio’s turn to use it.
It’s not ignorance. It’s a script.
Olszewski, meanwhile, has already introduced legislation requiring presidents to use blind trusts and barring them from trading individual stocks.
Because right now, the cowards in charge aren’t stopping any of it.
Sen. @DickDurbin: Article 1, Section 8, in the Constitution spells out who declares war under this Constitution. The United States Congress. Did the Congress declare war on Iran? No. Trump decided that we would go to war on his own without regard for the Constitution. $88 billion. That's how much has been spent so far in Iran. We're in the 5th month of a never ending war that Trump promised would never, ever, ever happen under his watch.
