I just went to vote in Westchester & machines are apparently broken county wide. They said choice is vote absentee or come back later. This is going to be crazy. Our country is in trouble.

If you’re wondering why Democrats are responding to what Haley Stevens did with a sense of betrayal it’s because it was quite literally betrayal. She told a number of her close friends and colleagues and staff that she’d be at church with Jim Clyburn - they were waiting for her there! And as for the notion that she’s choosing the candidate that isn’t promoting hate how can she justify that when just in the last few days Abdul has been called Muslim Brotherhood, a jihadist, and even a jihadist leprechaun. Sounds like a campaign of hate to me.

The only thing I'd say about Haley Stevens, who I knew pretty well in Congress, is that her actions have been neither principled nor opportunistic, just strange. I'd look more to experts in psychology than politics to explain them. But there are more important issues here. 1/

Last batch of NYT/Sienna polls are out. Bleak picture for Republicans. Not sure Stevens endorsement will be enough

GOP Sen. Thom Tillis: “To call Ken Paxton 'ethically challenged' is to call Jeffrey Dahmer suffering from an eating disorder.”

Blow: They're asking the Muslim man running for congress to run for the senate to disavow this, disavow that, disavow that. None of them disavow Donald Trump when he engaged in hatred, none of them… No matter how much he does. It's not enough

I hope folks will think about the fact that @HaleyforMI demanded that @AbdulElSayed denounce as antisemitic an ad he was not associated with, but is now endorsing a man who called Abdul a terrorist. She is fine with bigotry and racism as long as its against the right people.

Q: What your message to Democrats who are upset that throughout the primary you said you would endorse the Democratic nominee and are not doing so today? Stevens: I am sorry people are upset. I understand that. I did endorse the Democratic nominee. He chose to say I wasn’t welcome.

Everyone in the #NFL sucks but the NY Football #Giants are either the 1 eyes man in the land of the blind or the tallest dwarf in the circus. Let’s go!

Stevens got over 30 million from AIPAC in her primary and now she's endorsed a candidate who is also getting millions from AIPAC. What a surprise!

Mike Rogers will be another rubber stamp for Donald Trump’s dangerous agenda. We can’t afford to give MAGA another Senate seat in November. #MISEN

If only we had a Secretary of State like Marco Rubio, a man who wanted Joe Biden to rescue even more of our Afghan allies in 2021! Surely, someone like that would not let those Afghans who made it to America be delivered right back to the Taliban.

This morning @potus should inform the Taliban that we will be in #Afghanistan until everyone we & our allies plan to evacuate is accounted for & out of the country If they cooperate it should be swift & orderly If they get in the way they will be killed
