Two things: A) It's the biggest blessing from party elders that Abdul El-Sayed can get to have Barack Obama campaign with him). B) You bring in Barack Obama when you need the closer. This is bringing on Jordan with the Flu. This is Ben Wallace in Game 5 against the Lakers.

In mid-2025, Congress passed over $4 trillion in tax cuts that mostly benefit the rich and corporations. In the 1st year following the passage of OBBBA... Corporate Profits - 26.6% ⬆ Consumer Prices - 4% ⬆ Real Hourly Wages - 0.1% ⬆ Tax cuts don't trickle down. We need to make work pay again.

Jack Smith is testifying before the Senate this morning, and a GOP Senator just grilled him about being at an Atlanta Hawks game in ATL, and accused him of perjury bc he denied this was the case. Turns out, it was an Iowa HAWKEYES game in Maryland. These are the most unserious people ever.
