This coverage is an embarrassment. An altercation. A pilot stabbed another pilot & tried to crash a plane with 174 Israeli passengers on it. There’s video of the bloody pilot who managed to still open the cockpit. You can call it terrorism instead of acting like it’s “just” a murder-suicide attempt.

it’s also a reminder that Jewish liberals are and have long been mainstays of the Democratic party, alongside our Black friends and neighbors. The two groups who always show up — unlike the DSA and its affiliate voters, who would never have gotten behind Stevens had she won.

A lot of people tried to push the narrative early on that "the Democrats" or "the establishment" wanted El-Sayed to lose, based on evidence that could only very charitably be called scant. That narrative was false, beyond a doubt, and you should question the motives of the people who pushed it.

A reminder that Sen. Elissa Slotkin is a moderate, zionist Jewish woman with a background in national security specializing in Middle Eastern affairs. If she’s taking Abdul under her wing it gives me some reassurance.

New in @playbookdc: Sen. @ElissaSlotkin and @AbdulElSayed will appear at a town hall together and take questions Saturday in Macomb County, the birthplace of Reagan Democrats that Trump won in the last three elections.

Nobody does a better job of tracking the healthcare coverage losses caused by Republican attacks on the ACA than Charles. If you want the hard facts of what Republican healthcare "policy" really means, this is one of your go-to sources.

NEXT year, subsidized enrollees will likely only see modest increases to their *premiums*, but *out of pocket* caps will jump by another $400 - $1,400 apiece... ...while *unsubsidized* enrollees will have to pay over $1,100 more in premiums *and* will have $1,400 higher out of pocket caps.

If Trump started injecting every immigrant with bubonic plague, the Supreme Court would rule that while they take a year or two to decide if it's constitutional, the program should go forward because to not let Trump inject people with bubonic plague would do irreparable harm to the government
