The bread and butter of MAGA is IDF . . . Ignorance, Division, and Fear. Take gullible people, persuade them that all of they’re problems are because of “them” (take your pick — black, brown, gay, trans, Muslim, Jewish, female, educated, progressive, etc), and incite the rabble with dire warnings that they’re in an existential battle and on the side of righteousness.
You can see that con job taking place in the Michigan senate race. Trump and other MAGA minions are trying to smear Abdul El-Sayed by branding him as a Muslim Brotherhood jihadist.
Trump likes to refer to former President Obama as Barack Hussein Obama . . . and you know why. It’s the same reason he refers to El-Sayed as Mohammed Abdul El-Sayed. Funny that you never hear Trump refer to Dr. Oz (Muslim) as Mehmet Cengiz Oz or Kash Patel (Hindu) as Kashyap Pramod Patel.
So, what is the claim that El-Sayed is a Muslim Brotherhood jihadist primarily based on? In 2012, El-Sayed’s half-sister posted that she had a talk with her mother about her mother’s involvement in the 70s with the Muslim Brotherhood.
El-Sayed’s parents divorced when he was three and he lived with his father and eventual stepmother (who is a descendant of Abagail Adams). His half-sister was born later after his mother remarried.
El-Sayed denies any involvement with the Muslim Brotherhood and has denounced it, says he never discussed it with his mother, and notes that he didn’t live with his mother after the age of three.
The biggest supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood is the government of Qatar, where exiled members of the Brotherhood have been welcomed in for over a half-century. Qatar provides funding, safe haven, and media support for the Brotherhood, and it’s also a major supporter of Hamas.
In addition to the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, Qatar also supports Donald Trump. The new Air Force One Trump enjoys showing off — his flying Sky Palace — was a 400 million-dollar gift from the Muslim Brotherhood-supporting government of Qatar.
So, decide for yourself who has the closest ties to Muslim extremists and should have no place in our government.

HOW IS THIS ROUGHING THE KICKER!!!! WORST CALL EVER! BYU SCREW JOB! #provodave
Habitual liar
Trump: "My uncle invented radar! Can you believe it?"
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Donald Trump's uncle did not invent radar. The "first practical radar system" was patented by Sir Robert Watson-Watt, who built on the work of others such as Heinrich Hertz and Christian Huelsmeyer.

You have to hope this results in litigation . . . discovery will be very enlightening.

So, to be clear, the letter written by the mother who actually raised Pete Hegseth written 6 years before he was confirmed as SECDEF saying he was an abuser of women was just a trivial family dispute but a statement by a mother who lost custody of her child for abuse and neglect and hasn’t seen her in 50 years is “fair game” and the mother who abandoned her child for an indicted child rapist was “so brave” to trash her child.
That’s the @GOP

And like every time Trump vilifies and slimes a reporter for asking a legitimate question-- usually, of course, a woman-- the other reporters do nothing. Every one of them should repeat the question until he answers, should challenge his attacks on one of their own.
Proud to have voted for @RoyCooperNC to represent North Carolina in the United States Senate!
Elon has a bad case of TDS . . . Talarico Derangement Syndrome
Elon has spent 190 million dollars trying to defeat James Talarico and elect the crooked moral deviant Ken Paxton. To put that into perspective, Elon has spent 4 times more on the Texas senate race than Roy Cooper has raised over the entirety of his senate campaign. No one should be able to buy an election in America. That’s not democracy.
Who would have thought that one day we’d have a convicted felon running the so-called Department of Justice.

The shifting explanations from Musk and the administration sound like Abbott and Costello’s “Who’s on First?” Except the consequences for Ukrainian civilians are deadly.
Musk says he didn’t do it. The administration says it didn’t either. Yet someone in the administration reportedly told Musk to undo it, and Ukraine reports only partial restoration.
Are we supposed to believe Hegseth and the Pentagon don’t know the status of a capability critical to U.S., Ukrainian and allied security?
Whoever is handing Putin the gift of a more vulnerable Ukraine should at least have the guts to put their name on it. Hiding behind denials while innocent people pay the price is cowardice.
Meanwhile, Putin keeps murdering civilians and trying to starve and freeze Ukraine into submission. Americans deserve answers. Ukrainians deserve the means to defend themselves.
