This is insane. The level of overt, proud racism, hatred and bigotry in today's Republican Party is a stain on every leader in it and it will never ever wash away.
Trump on El-Sayed: "His name is actually Abduladadalalalala. It's Adulbabababababa Mohammed Al-Sayed. So his middle name is Mohammed. So I was right. He's a jihadist."

Trump with personal friend and billionaire Steve Wynn at his Mar-a-Lago fundraiser. Wynn was accused of pressuring his employees to perform sex acts.

You either believe, as many Republicans claim, that Trump wants to do what’s right on Russia-Ukraine but keeps making bad decisions that helps Russia & hurts Ukraine. Or you believe that Trump has always been on Putin’s side. The former just proves you are a fool or dishonest.

This is Rep. Andy Harris, a Republican from Maryland’s Eastern Shore. This fall, voters can approve a constitutional amendment letting Democrats draw a new map that dismantles Harris’ district — potentially giving them an extra U.S. House seat. Here’s how: demdock.com/4zGTJO8

Here is another truth: "Tommy" is a handsomely paid Republican political operative, not from Michigan, the money coming from Bobby Jindal, a former staffer for Josh Hawley, trained to ask one gotcha question over and over. How about asking a complicit Mike Rogers?
Several things can be true at once: 1. El Sayed has family members involved with the Muslim Brotherhood. 2. El Sayed is an American patriot who will follow the Constitution. 3. El Sayed’s public persona is arrogant, disrespectful, and condescending. Being asked questions you don’t like comes with the job. If he wants to win this election he should stop playing the angry victim and find the warmth and generosity to be a leader. He brings up John Kennedy. Well he can comb through every frame of footage ever shot of John Kennedy and never find a single moment where Kennedy was this ungracious, humiliating, or easily insulted.

“… in a properly functioning republic, there would be immediate hearings about this week’s shocking escalation of the Trump–Putin alliance.”

This is so perfect. Honestly, I thought "Tommy" was a plant by the way he walked off at the end. Abdul El-Sayed just looks too good here. But after looking it up, I learned he was a former Josh Hawley staffer. This is the most inspiring performance by an American politician that I can remember seeing. El-Sayed was faced with a bigoted question. He didn't hide from it or pander. He broke down why it was a bigoted question, and gave a stirring defense of American principles and the Constitution. At the end, his interlocutor wouldn't condemn Christian Nationalism! El-Sayed has a perfect response to this, and "everybody clapped." A lot of us have had this experience of arguing with right-wingers, questioning them, and then finding out that they have no principles, they're just bigots. A Hawley staffer will talk about the US Constitution and freedom of religion to attack a Muslim politician, and sing a completely different tune when it comes to Christian fundamentalists. Again, the "everybody clapped" nature of this, followed by Tommy walking off in shame, made me think that he was a plant. But no. This was a real-life rightoid, getting exposed as the hateful, hypocritical bigot that he is in front of the entire world. Abdul El-Sayed's rise in American politics has made me a lot more optimistic about our future.
This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Now that @AbdulElSayed has been asked to disavow the Muslim Brotherhood because of his mother’s alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood before he was born, will we be asking Donald Trump to disavow the Ku Klux Klan because of his father’s alleged ties to the KKK in the 1920s? washingtonpost.com/history/2…

Tommy, who worked as Josh Hawley’s ops director, is the son of Bobby Jindal’s longtime COS, Tim Teepell, who is listed as the principal for Breakthrough LLC. This month, Jindal’s dark money group paid $250,000 to Breakthrough LLC, for influencer marketing opposing Abdul El-Sayed.

Your bias opinion was clear. CBS has no news standards since it came under the iron claw of Bari Weiss.
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.

The open bigotry of CBS reporter cheering on a Christian nationalist spouting Anti-Muslim BS is astounding. This is why CBS News is dying.

Republicans are running a guy for Congress in Nevada who operates an online forum filled with Nazis, white supremacists, and racial slurs. Can we stop pretending the GOP doesn’t have a massive problem with Nazis and white supremacists!?

This was how Trump spent his Saturday night. At Mar-a-Lago with corporate leaders and wealthy donors throwing millions of dollars at his super PAC because they want things in return, and are getting them. This is the overt decline of the United States!

Darlene Graham is such a weak and useless Trump puppet that she can’t even defend the Lindsey O. Graham Russia Sanctions Act. She has zero thought or independence on anything policy or political. She was appointed to follow Trump’s every order and that’s exactly what she’s doing.
