,@CBSNews appears to have taken down its post saying @AngieNixon declined to say Cuba was a dictatorship.

Even after CBS News(max) deleted their tweet mischaracterizing this @AngieNixon answer about Cuba, @Fla_Pol publisher @PeterSchorschFL attacks her and accuses her of a “walk back” 🤔

Bari Weiss CBS working hand in glove with Rubio's obviously political pre-mid term call for a CIA coup in Cuba by ignoring what Angie Nixon actually said. You can think its a dictatorship while also thinking its wrong to starve and kill Cubans with a US blockade.

Here's a screenshot of the original post, which @AngieNixon said misrepresented what she said in the clip:
Florida Democratic Senate candidate Angie Nixon, who is challenging Republican Sen. Ashley Moody, was asked whether Cuba is a dictatorship. Here's what she had to say.
“That is what people have told me. I have never been to Cuba, and so I will have to take their word for it," Nixon told CBS News’ @cbenavidesTV. Nixon also criticized the decades-long U.S. embargo on Cuba and said she supports returning to Obama-era policies.
Editor's note: A previous version of this post did not accurately portray Rep. Nixon‘s answer. It has been deleted.

CBS deleting another tweet - this time after getting called out by a candidate directly. That company is going off the rails
It’s disappointing to have to say this, but @CBSNews, this is a serious failure of editorial reporting. I clearly state in this clip that while I have not personally been to Cuba, I have spoken with Cubans who have described it as a dictatorship, and I believe them. To claim I declined to answer the question is categorically false. That is not journalism. It is misinformation.

This is wrong. I'm in a blue collar diner in Ohio, and every lifelong Democrat there says the Obama joke was so offensive that they're all voting straight R and naming their firstborns "Vivek."

El-Sayed campaign statement: "This ad is not affiliated in any way with the Abdul for Senate campaign. Abdul is focused on pushing back against Trump’s agenda that is raising prices for Michiganders. No one speaks for Abdul but himself and his campaign." #MISEN
This type of fearmongering about Israel is wrong. It is not a winning strategy for any state. It does nothing to help Michigan Democrats win up and down the ballot in eight days. Do we need to lower costs by building more homes, securing people’s health care, and creating a fairer federal tax code? Yes, we do!! How we do so is not by blaming the high costs of our goods on the only Jewish homeland in the world. I want to see Democrats succeed at every level, and that means keeping our focus on lowering costs for Michigan families and reining in this out-of-control President.

Zach Lahn re-registered to vote in Iowa in Oct 2024 — just in time to qualify to run for governor in 2026.
Lahn cast an Iowa ballot in 2024.
But previously unreported voting records show he requested it be mailed to him — in Kansas.

In what world is “hundreds of thousands” not “350,000 to 580,000”?
This has always been the problem with “fact checking” — it is simply not equipped, nor did it adapt, to a post 2016 world.
Rallying in Cleveland for Democratic candidates, Barack Obama said Jon Husted "voted to kick hundreds of thousands of Ohioans off Medicaid."
This is largely accurate. PolitiFact previously fact-checked an ad by Brown that said Husted voted “to kick 490,000 Ohioans off their healthcare,” rating it Half True. Obama’s version was less specific and therefore more accurate.
The health care think tank KFF has estimated that 350,000 to 580,000 Ohioans could lose coverage. A more recent study by RAND found results broadly in line with KFF. buff.ly/LwkU5Db

There’s streaming. And then there’s The Diplomat. This is television at its absolute best.

Obama: "Imagine the power duo of Abdul and Elissa. You got a Muslim man, a Jewish woman, fighting for you in the US senate. That's something, Michigan, you can be proud of!"
