This is Jaime West. She’s a Democrat running for Fayette County Council, District 4 in Indiana. She’s drunk. And her final words to the voters were: “We have guns too.” If she runs for President, she’ll win 49 states.

Watch this to the end, you won’t regret it. This is what happens when you’re at happy hour and are reminded you agreed to do an interview about your race.

This image was sent to me from the field. These are messages US servicemen in the Persian Gulf have scribbled on the dust of an aircraft flap. "Be a good guy and do what Israel tells you to" "Operation Epstein Fury" "Peace deal #64 incoming... ALL THIS FOR THE HOLY LAND" I have no frame of reference, I can't compare it to the sentiments of US soldiers in previous conflicts. But I suspect these are new sentiments, or at least a new willingness to express them this openly and directly. But as one serviceman told me: "What people in the media don't understand when they compare past conflicts to this one, is this operation has no morale behind it. That makes a world of difference to service members deployed to undesirable locations indefinitely." Read that last part again: No morale. Deployed to undesirable locations INDEFINITELY. My own conclusion: When a war has no morale behind it, winning means that you simply end it. There is no other "winning" in such an unjust war.

hey @seanhannity it’s time buddy !
Sean Hannity has now mentioned Hasan Piker on his program over 260 times. He is reportedly terrified of speaking to Hasan directly and recently cancelled his planned debate with him.

Stavros Halkias: I don't wanna do the both sides bullshit because it's just not true. One side is worse than the other, objectively speaking. One side is disappearing people and one side wants children to have healthcare, I don't think that's equivalent. A lot of stand up comics happened to have some of the dumbest opinions on Earth

Leaked memo shows Republicans privately see Francesca Hong as "uniquely dangerous" in the general election & that “more moderate and establishment Democratic alternatives would likely produce lower base motivation and depressed turnout": kenklippenstein.com/p/will-f…

DL Hughley on Zohran Mamdani: “This Muslim is putting Christians to shame. There is more to say for a man that lifts the poor, that feeds the hungry, that walks among the people, than powerful white men who consort with a pedophile. Who’s the more Christlike?”

James Carville leaving the Democratic Party would not in any way hurt the Democratic Party - the prompt departure of him and his cohort of ancient consultants/pundits would probably help the Democratic Party

Caitlin - I got comment from the campaign where you worked. Also reached out to Palantir, which didn’t respond. Your rationale for why you work for Palantir is not the newsworthy part. If you’d like to share why you work there, and what your favorite parts of their business are, please do share, but there’s no real news value in that. The news is that Haley Stevens' comms strategy was being set by somebody who was secretly working for Palantir, a company complicit in the very thing Stevens is ostensibly running in opposition to. *Why* you decided to do that is perhaps curious to some but again, not newsworthy, so once I had comment from the campaign, that was enough. But okay, fine, if you really want to explain it: Why did you secretly work for Palantir while also working for Haley Stevens? Did you believe Stevens would be okay with what you were doing? If so, what does that say about her commitment to opposing ICE? If not, why did you keep it from her? What advice did you give her about communications around ICE and Palantir? Happy to post any additional comment you have.
Ryan admits he never asked me for comment

I don't see nearly enough candidates talking about climate change and the fossil fuel industry's responsibility for it. One exception here:
The air quality in Michigan is the worst in the world right now. How did we get here?

I was homeschooled. She’s 100% right. My christian bookstore curriculum was a fucking joke. It was a miracle I was able to barely get my GED, but I was SO far behind when I started community college. I also had zero social skills when I started working—it was brutal.

BREAKING: Iran sent a private message to JD Vance during Switzerland talks, warning that Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff were "abusing" negotiations — more interested in profiting from insider knowledge than reaching a deal, per Drop Site News. Iran calculated $9 billion in profits from market manipulation by "individuals close to Trump" — and formally requested $4.5 billion of that sum be allocated to Iran through intermediaries. The Iranian official added: "The exchanged texts will ultimately become part of the historical record." Iran also raised concerns that Kushner and Witkoff "talk almost every day to Netanyahu" and the Mossad chief — feeding Israeli intelligence with inside information from the negotiations. The Trump administration denies the claims. Iran says the evidence will be made public. If confirmed, this is one of the most significant financial scandals in modern diplomacy.

It appears Haley Stevens has barely funded any ads from her campaign, which raises a question: Will she be the first Senate candidate in U.S. history who wins a primary by running a race whose paid ad campaign is almost totally bankrolled by dark money super PACs?
#MIPol: Haley Stevens is going up on linear TV for the first time in #MISen. She's reserved $40K so far, with ads starting tomorrow. Over $38M has been aired supporting her campaign so far this cycle.

Note to Dems who seem thrilled by Graham Platner’s exit. Stop and think! You have much to learn from him. Graham Platner didn’t merely promise to fight for his fellow Mainers. He actually inspired the fight IN them. How did he do that? By pointing to the ever-intensifying concentrations of wealth and power that have made life so difficult for working people and reminding them of how generations past confronted mortal threats to American democratic life and its revolutionary promise of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in the 1770s, 1860s, and 1930s & 40s not simply by defending things as they were, but actually making the USA freer, more equal, and more democratic than ever before. 🇺🇸 xitter.gq/grahamformaine/status/…
Throughout American history, we have faced mortal crises of our democracy. From the 1770s when we broke from Great Britain, the 1860s in the battle to end slavery, the 1930s and 40s with the collapse of our economic system and the war against fascism. At every one of these moments, the Americans that stepped up fundamentally understood that the world they needed to build could not be the world they had come from. That to protect the rights of their children, they needed to give them new rights, new freedoms. We are in one of those moments of crisis. Nobody wants to live in interesting times, but we do. Nobody wants to be asked to do the hard work, but we will be asked. And we must rise to the occasion. But as we do, we must understand this is not just about going back to what we had. This is about building something new.
