Bill Hemmer just pressed Rep. Debbie Dingell on "how can you endorse" if El-Sayed is the nominee after he said this month that Israel does not have a right to exist. Dingell shrugged it off as one of many issues that they will simply have to disagree. Of course, this is in addition to abolishing ICE, effectively destroying the Supreme Court, wealth taxes, releasing criminals, and, of course, his continued embrace of virulent anti-Semite Hasan Piker. However, Dingell and others pledge that they will work for his election to the Senate...
When I was a graduate student at Emory, I taught a class on comparative genocides
We studied the Armenian genocide, the Holocaust, and the Rwandan genocide, specifically. Students, piqued by curiosity, were asked to describe how these horrific events were similar and how they were different
Fast forward to 2026 and now 'genocide' is mainly used as a rhetorical weapon, meant to delegitimize Jewish peoplehood and to manufacture consent for the abuse and harassment of Jews
There is no attempt to understand the term or to learn about actual genocides. Few people who scream 'genocide' on here have ever read a book on the topic. Many, lacking reading comprehension skills, are simply incapable of doing so
If you don't think this is going to effect how politics are conducted in the United States going forward, I have a bridge to sell you
Senator Fetterman BLASTS his own party for electing communist Darializa Avila Chevalier in New York, who PRAISES dictators like Joseph Stalin
FETTERMAN: “I mean, she was praising Kim and Stalin! Between those two men 100 million people murdered!”
“Some of the most evil and terrible people in the world or in history and she was praising them, saying we don't have enough of their books in our libraries.”
“Of course, she deleted those things but this is not ancient history.”
“This is all recent views people like this we are electing!”
The DSA is all cosplay. It's faculty lounge politics—"Abolish ICE!" and "Free Palestine!" masquerading as a working class agenda. Which is why Susan Collins is beating Graham Platner with working-class voters by 21 points—and he's beating her with college grads by 34 points.

I remember when I worked at CNN and saw @davidaxelrod in the green room. Asked a question that continues to befuddle me. Never got a satisfying response. Here goes again: During entire SCOTUS history, when has there EVER been a liberal justice — appointed by a Democrat POTUS — considered to be a “swing vote,” in the tradition of a Justice Anthony Kennedy. So rare to see the three liberal justices on the current court now EVER act as a “swing vote.”
And yet, Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, ACB, and Chief Justice Roberts (MANY TIMES) side with the liberal wing. Why? Think that Sotomayor or Kagan or KBJ would EVER take a *consequential position not aligned with their preferred ideology? Serious question. Why are “swing votes” almost always right to left? 🤔
Confirms what I’ve been saying:
Patriotism must transcend politics.
I’m deeply grateful and proud to be a citizen of this great country.
Happy 250th birthday to the best nation, now and forever. 🇺🇸
Anti-Israel.
Anti-America.
Anti-Western Civilization.
Why am I the only Democrat in the U.S. Senate that refuses to excuse this or defend any of those self-identified communists?
There's the World Cup and a whole bunch of other shit going on, please seek out a therapist if you're spending more than a few moments thinking about the White House Reflecting Pool.
As America turns 250, the question is whether we still possess the spiritual resources to renew ourselves. Will we continue nursing our grievances, or will we choose the harder path of radical grace? asks Robert L. Woodson Sr.

This Memorial Day, we honor the service and sacrifice of the brave Americans who gave their lives for this great nation.
We will never forget their courage, their devotion, and the freedoms they fought to defend.
Free speech is a legal right. It is also part of a larger inheritance, protected by people who paid costs most of us can barely imagine.
On Memorial Day, we remember those who gave their lives in service to that inheritance.
They did not die so Americans would fall into a dreary consensus on all things.
They died helping preserve a country where disagreement is possible without bloodshed, where dissent is not treason, and where citizens can argue, worship, protest, publish, persuade, offend, forgive, and begin again.
That is not a small thing. It’s the inheritance we are obliged to protect.
What happened at the University of Michigan is bigger than one speaker and it deserves more than an apology.
It’s well known Michigan has a large Jewish student body. The administration knew the speaker’s record and still handed him the mic—leaving those students isolated and targeted.
Protests on campus have repeatedly crossed the line: encampments, disrupted ceremonies, demonstrations at officials’ homes, clashes with police.
The first amendment must be protected but it doesn’t absolve anyone of consequences.
Universities have deep culture problems they must address. If they don’t, they should face repercussions.
At today’s University of Michigan graduation, Professor Derek Peterson thanked anti-Israel protesters for 2 years of campus chaos.
Turning a commencement speech into a political rant like this is grounds for termination.
Sickening.
We were there front and center.
That venue wasn’t built to accommodate an event with the line of succession for the U.S. government.
After witnessing last night, drop the TDS and build the White House ballroom for events exactly like these.
