We are, what, three weeks removed from the Michigan primary now? And people are still crashing out about Abdul’s victory and spreading GOP oppo? Go support an enabler of Trump’s war on our economy, healthcare, and reproductive rights then. Every day I am grateful I don’t work in politics anymore.

Any digital strategist working in politics will tell you that this is smart, *especially* if you have even just passing thoughts of greater political ambitions down the road. I wouldn’t bat an eye if McMorrow or Stevens did the same. But I’m sure one of them may have tipped Politico off on this LOL

A text excerpt discussing Abdul El-Sayed as a potential progressive dark horse candidate for 2028, noting his rising battleground state polls, leading rivals Haley Stevens and Mallory McMorrow in ActBlue fundraising, and his registration of three presidential campaign-related domains: elsayedforpresident.com, elsayedforpresident.org, and abdulforpresident.org.

Quite the interesting Sunday afternoon post from Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel.

Screenshot of a Facebook post by Dana Nessel (verified account), posted 2 hours ago. The post argues that AIPAC has become the top target and litmus test for Democratic candidates, even those running for offices with no foreign affairs authority, and claims this is what powerful corporate interests want. Nessel asserts that AI tech billionaires intentionally feed divisive Middle East content to keep voters divided and prevent them from uniting on issues like tech regulation, mass surveillance, and employment. She lists other industries she says voters should be focused on instead: chemical manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, healthcare insurers, energy monopolies, and insurance companies. She acknowledges AIPAC has supported election deniers and insurrection supporters, but argues that if Israel disappeared tomorrow, everyday Americans' lives wouldn't improve, as they'd still face unaffordable healthcare, housing, clean air and water, insurance, and utilities. She concludes that voters who focus more on hating AIPAC, Israel, and Zionist Jews than on American corporate interests are playing into the hands of corporate America and AI billionaires who profit from division, as they did in 2016 and 2024, calling Americans pawns in a game set up by corporate overlords.

Fully convinced that these corny British influencers (Josh & Jase) traveling around Michigan right now are a psyop

Screenshot of a social media post from British travel influencer “Josh from England” with a long message praising America and warning not to be fooled by divisive media, ending with “God bless America” and a US flag and heart emoji.

Over the photo is a highlighted comment from “Jerry Smith” (14h) thanking the poster for making Americans grateful and saying media distorts small issues; the comment shows about 2.1K likes and reply/message buttons

Pro tip: If you need a laugh, the r/IThinkYouShouldLeave subreddit has been absolute gold for a very long time.

Top-left shows comedian Tim Robinson forcing a push-door exit open labeled “Republicans.” Top-right is a close-up of the door hinge labeled “Our Democracy.” Bottom panel shows a worried-looking man in a suit labeled “Democrats."

Hey @bcbsm.bsky.social, care to explain why you’re denying coverage of a procedure for a breast cancer patient that could significantly lessen the chances their arm blowing up like a balloon for the rest of their life due to lymphedema caused by the removal of lymph nodes?

We should also note that "Dr." Simmons was promoting the idea that DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) is not cancer back in July. Curiously, it appears she softened her caption since then ("not a medical emergency") but her original disinformation remains in the video.

The winter break was hectic, with lots of family get-togethers and unexpected home repairs, so spending another long weekend in the woods with dear friends was an amazing idea. Watching the giant lake-effect snowflakes from a hot tub was a religious experience. Is winter...growing on me?!

Not a great way to start the new year: Found out my sweet pup Ziggy has cancer that has spread to both of his lungs. Treatment at his age (and with his heart condition) would be too taxing and not guaranteed. We don't have any idea how much longer we have with him, but we're gonna make it good.
