    When JD Vance Calls Abdul El-Sayed 'Evil,' He Should Look In A Mirror (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Vice President JD Vance at Munich Security Conference on February 14, 2025 In a year when Democrats have the wind at their backs and a shot at winning even in Texas, primary voters in Michigan have chosen a Senate candidate in Abdul El-Sayed who needlessly alienates many voters. But of all the Republican politicians to criticize El-Sayed, JD Vance may be the least well suited, because when it comes to tolerance for extremism and antisemitism, Vance and El-Sayed are almost equally matched players

    The Only Promise Todd Blanche Can Honestly Make Is More Dishonesty (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Darializa Avila Chevalier Should those of us who want to defeat the proto-fascists in charge of the Republican Party be worried about a few blue districts that have recently indulged their ids and voted for members of the Democratic Socialists of America? Yes. If their victories become a trend, it could sabotage the Democratic Party. In a way, Democrats should be grateful to Trump. In the past 18 months, he has done all he can to alienate the swing voters who boosted him

    If Trump's 'Triumphal Arch' Goes Up, The Wrecking Cranes Will Be Ready (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Two versions of Trump's "Independence Arch" shared on his social media account last January If completed as planned, Donald Trump's triumphal arch outside Arlington National Cemetery will tower over the graceful Memorial Bridge, obstruct the view of the Lincoln Memorial from the cemetery (and vice versa) and offend anyone whose taste is north of Liberace.
