🚨BREAKING: Republicans' odds to flipping the Michigan US Senate seat JUMP OVERNIGHT. Michigan - 2026 US Senate 🟥Mike Rogers 44.3% (+3.7) 🟦Abdul El-Sayed 40.6% Polling average via Pollsmax.com. Abdul El-Sayed has become the Democratic frontrunner, and compared to his primary opponents—Mallory McMorrow and Haley Stevens—he performs by far the worst against Mike Rogers. If El-Sayed ends up being the nominee, Republicans will be the heavy favorites to flip Michigan's US Senate seat later this year.

Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026). arkolith.com/news/news-micr… therepublic.com/?p=843020 governor.ny.gov/news/safer-str…

On the 7 seasons I worked on TPF, there was a psychologist on set. Most major reality TV have them [ legal caveats too] Simply coz our brains are unable to process dopamine hits from being on camera 24/7. It mostly leads to self sabotage. Exhibit 7357:👇🏾

It keeps getting worse. Marriage podcasts can be encouraging without embarrassing each other. Have some secrets!

Btw it’s not like what the dad did was wrong in any way. But what I know about marriage is you protect your spouse from the speculation and ridicule online by not feeling the need to discuss these things with anyone outside of your household.

Ujanja culture. The fraudster mistakes dishonesty for intelligence, while the society he exploits makes the equally foolish mistake of assuming its own decency is universal One mistakes dishonesty for intelligence. The other mistakes its own decency for a universal human trait

My opinion is the first game at Talanta Stadium should be AFC Leopards vs Gor Mahia or Harambee Stars vs someone.

People claim that when someone you’ve just met asks you what you do for a living, they are doing it to decide how to treat you. No Onesmus! I ask because want to know if you are a highway robber or an online scammer… so that I can immediately stop talking to you.

The treatment of Kenyans seeking visas to Nigeria is unacceptable. While we extend visa free entry to Nigerian citizens, this is not reciprocated. The inconvenience suffered by Kenyans is unwarranted. We are pursuing the remedying of this situation with vigor at diplomatic and political levels. @KenyaHC_Nigeria @NigeriaMFA

By the way applying for a Nigerian Visa - you need more documents than you need for the UK, US, Schengen. And the process is longer. You even need the passport of the inviter. A colleague is applying because someone decided to host a conference in Nigeria that he has to attend.

Nigerians come to Kenya visa-free but Nigeria is denying Kenyans visas after applying, paying $80, submitting flight + hotel bookings, invitation letters etcetera. How is this acceptable?
