el Sayed had the unique experience of his party attacking him for months leading to his primary opponent endorsing against him so yes you would anticipate he'd perform lower than some other candidates would
Steve Kornacki says while Democrats are overwhelmingly overperforming 2024 numbers everywhere, Abdul El-Sayed is not seeing that same trend.

what do you mean Mississippi has no recount law lmfao
Looking like a sub-50 vote margin in MS-Sen, and Mississippi is the one state that has no recount law on the books. Welp. That's unexpected.

DSA may have voted for Harris at the highest rate of any ideology. Notice how the people making these claims never provide any proof. I’m not saying my data here is perfect. But talk they have is hot air and fake outrage.
So y'all are gonna kick Stevens out the Democratic party for not voting for El-Sayed, but the DSA, which did not vote for Kamala Harris, and is causing chaos everywhere, gets to stay?!?!?! @HouseDemocrats @SenateDems

This is the first interview I've seen of Muslims being asked how they feel right now
El-Sayed supporters Aasiya Yaasiin, Mina Abdel-Khalek and Faduma Hassan say Islamophobic rhetoric in TV ads is making them feel less safe at school and in public. “It’s like going back in time. I’m more in danger of a racist event now than five years ago,” Yaasiin says.

What really stands out to me about Ta-Nahisi Coates is that he's not a radical. He just takes liberalism's self-professed ideals about liberty & democracy seriously & as a result won't accept the ugly contradictions at the heart of Western liberal-capitalism in action

Pray for Christine Brennan
Per source: Game 7 of the WNBA Finals drew 3.3M viewers Saturday on USA, CNBC, and Peacock, based on preliminary numbers from Nielsen and Adobe Analytics. Final numbers expected later today. If the number holds, Game 7 would be the most-watched WNBA game since 1997.

Weird I don’t remember Bernie trying to ratfuck Hillary a week before the election. I remember him endorsing her and attending 39 rallies to campaign for her

Does Haley Stevens realize 85% of her appeal during the primary was an enduring belief that she was best positioned to beat Mike Rogers rather than anything about her as an individual
I am endorsing Mike Rogers for the United States Senate today.

Also - at this point if Abdul pulls out a squeaker win, he will not be asked too many questions about it (outside of the most terminally online nerds), but lionized by progressives and mainstream Dems both
Does the Stevens endorsement matter? Probably depends if you think this is a one-point race or a four-point race.

if Abdul el sayed was interested in party unity he would have gone with Haley Stevens so they could endorse Mike Rogers together. instead he is sowing division by trying to win

The big tent party is mean to you when you literally leave the tent? Wow
Haley Stevens’ fiancé says he’s received backlash over his decision to vote for Mike Rogers during Fox and Friends interview “What I see online today is a response from a Democratic Party that I thought is meant to be a big tent, that brought me into its tent because I care about disability rights issues.” “I'm a person with a disability, I'm legally blind and I represent tens of thousands of disabled folks across the country, my law firm. 90% of what I read today is attacking me for my disability or how I look.”

It really is impossible to overstate how unprecedented the career suicide Haley Stevens is engaging in right now is.
Even Neera Tanden is getting tired of the Haley Stevens bullshit. This sad episode feels like its over.

Oh look, it’s Francesca Hong, the DSAer the establishment went all out to defeat in the primary for Wisconsin governor, working her ass off for Dems and using her platform to attack the Republican candidate for governor (not her former Dem opponent). Quite the contrast with Haley Stevens next door in MI. Because—say it with me—corporate centrist Dems are the real traitors to the Democratic Party.

francesca hong was treated way harsher by national media, and yet she's been unwavering in her support of david crowley. kinda sounds like haley stevens has severe self-esteem and self-worth issues, and should probably never be in public office ever again
Replying to @caitleg
There is a larger conversation to be had about what happened here, and how the public bullying and ostracism during the campaign pushed her into an increasingly hardline position on these issues because AIPAC supporters were the only ones who stood by her and stand by her today.

Not only is Magdi Jacobs not Jewish but she talks over Jews who disagree w/ her. When we were friends I tried many times to get her to stop weaponizing antisemitism & told her it wasn’t her lane. Far too many non Jews conflate Zionism with Jewishness on both sides of the spectrum

If a progressive was doing this shit to Turek over his blatant transphobia, these same people would be crashing out that they were costing us a Senate majority

Can you imagine what the discourse would be like if a failed left wing challenger tried to blow up a moderate nominee's swing state campaign over "not reaching out to the LGBTQ+ and Muslim communities enough"
On the eve of the eve of the eve of our BIG and important election, a unifying moment has arrived, our democratic nominee for U.S Senate disavows the Rebellion PAC ad made by Hasan Piker’s uncle that claims Jews are responsible for America’s economic woes. We have learned from party leaders and emissaries, as reported in the news media that he has. On Sunday I will join with the Great Democratic leader, Jim Clyburn and Dr El Sayed for a church service in the beautiful city of Detroit. The political coalition of Black and Jewish voices that have carried Michigan and this country through so many storms to the righteous path of liberal democracy and equal opportunity for all will ring out.
