CAUGHT INSIDE MINNEAPOLIS POLLING BOOTHS: Minnesota Poll Workers Tell O’Keefe, Dressed in Muslim Garb, & @camhigby, in a Burka, That They Can Vouch for Eight Unregistered Voters Without ID, Allowing Them to Vote in Minnesota Primary Election
[Twitchy] Apparently, some consultant in Democrat land told all the weirdos running for office to make ads with their grandparents so they didn't look so un-American and scary. First, Abdul El-Sayed made a video with his stepmother's parents attempting to show what a regular guy he is. Do those grandparents also believe in wiping Israel off the map and that Jews have no right to exist? Are they also friendly with the Muslim Brotherhood? Do they also cosign on his checking accounts, like Mom?
Now, Talarico has released a video with his 'Paw-Paw'. He's a lovely Southern gentleman who loves the Lord. Those are some of the best kind of men. Does Paw-Paw also believe God is a woman, though? Does Paw-Paw think God could be trans? When Paw-Paw thinks of things he loves, is it trans-kids? Of course, grandparents love their grandchildren, even with their wacky ideas, but just because Talarico has a precious Paw-Paw, doesn't mean he isn't dangerous.
[MSN] The U.S. government has collected $4.49 trillion in tax revenues for fiscal year 2026.
Which means 33.4% of every $$$$ collected is paying for the overspending and waste of the DC SWAMP.
Maybe its time to stop funding and supporting the world's issues that always seem to fill certain pockets in some way or another.
Hence DOGE and all the other efforts to stop spraying out money with a firehose plus whatever Senator John Thune allows through to change the laws of the land about will and won’t be funded.
Plus start requiring those medically and mentally able on welfare and public assistance to do 20 hrs of Public service a week? Plus limit assistance to X# of years, and not make it a career.
That takes new laws. Talk to Senator John Thune. Unfortunately, he isn’t up for reelection until 2028.
Seriously, we are fucked budget wise. The only reason we can run this big a deficit is the world still sees the dollar as the default currency so they buy a lot of our debt. The second that stops, the music stops and we'll find there are no chairs left.
[Al-Grauniad via MSN] Hatchet-faced shark-toothed mayo-haired mumble scrunts hardest hit
A progressive group has endorsed a 27-year-old substitute teacher who overcame childhood homelessness in his bid to unseat the veteran Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz in Florida.
The Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) said it was backing Elijah Manley in next week’s primary election in Florida’s newly drawn 20th congressional district, casting the race as a contest between a young economic populist and a stalwart of the Democratic party establishment.
Wasserman Schultz, 59, an 11-term congresswoman and former chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), has faced criticism from African American leaders over her decision to run as the sole white candidate in a majority-minority district where she is not a resident.
This followed the creation of gerrymandered congressional maps by Florida Republicans that broke Wasserman Schultz’s current seat into five shards. She decided against running in the 22nd district, where she lives, and chose instead to compete in the deep blue 20th, which has been represented by Black Democrats for more than 30 years.
Yvette Clarke, chair of the Congressional Black caucus, told the Politico website on Friday: "It’s a painful situation. To have a beloved colleague who made a decision basically to run in a district where historically there’s been CBC representation, and I know that the community has been really disrupted by it."
Other candidates in the primary include former congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, who resigned in April over allegations of misusing $5m in federal funds, which she denies; former Broward County mayor Dale Holness; and community activist Luther "Uncle Luke" Campbell, a rapper best known for his role in 2 Live Crew.
Manley, who is Black, grew up homeless in Fort Lauderdale’s historic Sistrunk neighbourhood. He is campaigning on universal healthcare, a federal jobs guarantee and a pledge to build "an economy where workers have rights, working families can thrive, and the wealthy pay their fair share".
Stephanie Taylor, a co-founder of the PCCC, said: "Elijah Manley isn’t just talking about the fight for working people — he’s lived it. He’s running a campaign built on Medicare for All, good jobs, and an economy that finally works for the people, not just the wealthy and well-connected. Debbie Wasserman Schultz represents the Democratic establishment. Voters are ready for young new fighters like Elijah."
A May poll by the Listener Group suggested that Manley could pose a serious challenge to Wasserman Schultz. In an initial head-to-head matchup, she led 39% to 21%. But after voters were given basic biographical information about the candidates, Manley moved ahead, 36% to 27%, according to the poll cited by the PCCC.
Manley welcomed the endorsement, saying the group had been "on the frontlines of every major fight for working people" for more than a decade. "I’m honoured to earn their endorsement," he said. "Together, we’re going to fight for the working families of South Florida and build an economy that works for everyone."
Wasserman Schultz, who has been a member of Congress since 2005, has long been a divisive figure for Democrats. She was forced to resign as DNC chair after criticism from supporters of the progressive senator Bernie Sanders when leaked emails suggested a bias in favour of Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential primary election.
Manley tweeted in May: "Debbie Wasserman Schultz is carpetbagging to FL-20, a black opportunity district instead of running in her own. DWS is everything that’s wrong with the Democratic establishment. From insider trading to payday lenders. I look forward to retiring her from public office permanently."
The PCCC is also backing Oliver Larkin, a democratic socialist organiser and union strategist challenging the Democrat Jared Moskowitz in Florida’s newly drawn 25th congressional district.
The PCCC said its endorsed candidates who have already won primaries this cycle include Peggy Flanagan in Minnesota’s Senate race, Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan’s Senate contest, James Talarico in Texas’s Senate election and Brad Lander in New York’s 10th congressional district.

If Manley wins, it's almost a win/win for Republicans. The Dummycrats lose a congress critter
with seniority and replace her with a far left progressive who doesn't know how to play the congressional game and will probably be shunted off to unimportant committees.
Look at Talib & AOC, certainly very vocal and they get a lot of attention from the press but are they really the ones that get things done in Congress?
