Whatever you think of this ad, the fact that anyone could spin it as antisemitic is gobsmacking. The only way you can do that is to equate the nation-state of Israel with all Jews everywhere, which is insane.
I’m sick to my stomach. I honestly never thought that I would witness such an antisemitic piece of American political propaganda in my lifetime. This is Nazi-Islamic antisemitism delivered against the Jewish collective in 2026 in the United States. By endorsing Abdel El-Sayed, the Democratic Party has crossed a threshold that signals a sickening decay of dangerous proportions to the American Jewish community. If this ad isn’t pulled with an explicit apology to the Jewish community, I will say Kaddish over my country of birth. I’m disgusted by what was once a great country. Voting Democratic is now like voting for the Nazi party. Anyone who rationalizes this ad as anything other than an Islamic-Nazi propaganda piece that scapegoats the collective Jew for cheap political currency has succumbed to antizionist brainwashing.

Damn, now this is a good ad that gets to the point and makes it clear exactly how much it's costing each individual American. We are paying to kill Palestinians. We also can't have universal Healthcare because we're paying for Israel's universal Healthcare
“Honey we can’t buy eggs, we have to set aside $7 to bomb the kids in Gaza. Remember?” Abdul El-Sayed is absolutely crushing it. This is the most brilliant ad of all time 👏🏼

Maybe this is crazy. But a woman who built herself up from being a homeless child to an accomplished physician, seems preferable to a man born into the privileges of private education and frequent international family vacations but never learned decency.

There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator.
There is something deeply wrong with Talarico

Outreach to Hindus in NJ is understandable but BAPS? This is the organization that went to Eiffel Tower & demanded women employees not be working. And did human trafficking in NJ to build a temple. Your staff really messed up on the vetting here.
BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Edison is a cornerstone for so many families across NJ-07. I was grateful to join Navratri services on Saturday night and hear directly from neighbors about how we can best support the community.

If this is any indication, then it's going to be a warm winter this year. Temperatures this high in NYC in October are not normal.

Sometimes I just crave home made dal, rice and chicken tandoori. I made most of it for those who follow both me and @gauravsabnis because generally he's the chef between us 😁😍

OMG the sanghi-MAGA having a meltdown in replies is so funny 🤣🤣🤣
Had fun attending today's NYC rally and trolling the BJP right wing guy there whose sole purpose was to be loud and disruptive but sadly he hardly ever got to play the dhol because as soon as he started playing, we started saying Modi chor 🤣🤣

His single point agenda was to drown out the speakers with his yelling & drum. My single point agenda was to either keep him engaged in arguments or yell louder than him. He barely played his drums lol.
Replying to @gauravsabnis
so that _was_ you! i thought you looked familiar :) thanks for standing up to that jerk!

New York is showing up for Indian democracy: voting rights, civil liberties and the freedom to dissent are not gifts bestowed by governments. They belong to the people. HfHR stands with those defending Indian democracy from repression and majoritarian rule.

You can see me in the black hat holding a white sign saying "Ask not what your country can do for you! Ask what you can do for Adani-Ambani." 😁

Shame on you @JanCBS this has all the signs of coordinating with an obvious GOP plant to drive a false narrative about Abdul. Tommy is a paid GOP agitator whose company is well paid.

No Jan - you got caught red handed trying to help prop up a paid GOP operative who was there to spread false, racist lies about Abdul because he is Muslim. Shame on you.
Earlier, I tweeted a video from an Abdul El-Sayed town hall. I deleted that tweet because it was a violation of CBS News standards. I apologize.
