Is this true @grok, did Ivanka Trump's birthday trip to Morocco cost us taxpayers almost $100,000? I feel like this isn’t true. She’s rich already. She most likely used her own money.

Please!!
Infighting. Seeing lots of it. Normal to an extent after a big upheaval… but we’ve got to come together like we did for the midterms for shot at saving this place. I suggest trying to find a little grace and patience with allies who have different opinions on next steps.

LA FOTO CHE HA FATTO PAURA ALLA DESTRA. ANCHE A QUELLA DESTRUPIDA ITALIANA. (Soprattutto) Questa è la Dott.ssa Sarah Jukaku. Guardatela bene, perché è di lei che parlano da giorni, con insulti, bugie e campagne di fango. E non si vergognano neanche un po' di scrivere falsità. L'unica verità che hanno scritto è il suo nome e cognome. Quello che non dicono è che è un'americana, nata e cresciuta in Michigan, figlia di immigrati indiani di Bhatkal, in Karnataka. Il nonno, Jukaku Shamshuddin, era avvocato ed è stato vice ministro delle Finanze del governo dello Stato di Mysore sotto il primo ministro B. D. Jatti, dal 1958 al 1962. Il padre, il dottor Tayeb Jukaku, è nefrologo, si è laureato in Medicina a Bengaluru prima di trasferirsi negli Stati Uniti. Sarah Jukaku si è laureata al Michigan in Sociologia e Studi sul Vicino Oriente, ha conseguito un master in Politica Sociale Comparata all'Università di Oxford e si è laureata in Medicina alla Columbia University di New York nel 2015. Ha fatto l'internato al Weill Cornell e la specializzazione in Psichiatria alla Michigan Medicine. È stata co-direttrice di psichiatria all'University Health Services del Michigan e nel 2024 ha fondato il suo studio privato ad Ann Arbor, Mind Work. Il marito è Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed, detto Abdul, appena eletto Senatore degli Stati Uniti per il Michigan. Abdul El-Sayed, nato e cresciuto in Michigan da padre immigrato egiziano, si è laureato con il massimo dei voti in Biologia e Scienze Politiche all'Università del Michigan nel 2007. Come Rhodes Scholar ha conseguito un dottorato in Sanità Pubblica a Oxford nel 2011 e poi la laurea in Medicina alla Columbia nel 2014. Abdul El-Sayed è medico epidemiologo, è stato professore assistente di epidemiologia a Columbia, direttore esecutivo del Dipartimento della Salute di Detroit dal 2015 al 2017 e direttore del Dipartimento della Salute, dei Servizi Umani e per i Veterani della Contea di Wayne dal 2023 al 2025. Sarah e Abdul si sono conosciuti in Michigan, si sono sposati nel maggio 2006 e hanno due figlie, Emmalee e Serene. Dopo aver vinto le elezioni per il Senato in Michigan, Abdul ha chiamato la moglie sul palco per ringraziarla per il supporto ricevuto durante la campagna elettorale e per essersi occupata nell'ultimo anno della loro casa e delle figlie, praticamente da sola. Ha fatto quello che qualsiasi candidato eletto avrebbe fatto: ringraziare la moglie e la famiglia per il supporto ricevuto. Ringraziarla, soprattutto, per aver sostenuto il peso della casa e dei figli da sola mentre lui era in giro a fare campagna elettorale! La destra americana si è scatenata accusando, e mentendo, Abdul di essere il tipico padre padrone musulmano che costringe la moglie a rimanere reclusa in casa, fare le pulizie, cucinare e badare ai bambini. Ci sta, in fondo è più facile spaventarsi di un velo che prendersi il tempo di leggere un curriculum. Quello che nessuno si aspettava è che la destra di puro ceppo italico si tuffasse nella stessa campagna di fango: media e social, gente che condivide senza verificare, che grida al pericolo islamico. Hanno timore che la signora Sarah Jukaku possa rappresentare un pessimo esempio per le giovani di puro ceppo italico. Certo, hanno ragione ad avere paura, in fondo conseguire tre lauree senza rinunciare al diritto di avere una famiglia potrebbe essere, oltre ad un cattivo esempio, un rischio per la libertà delle nostre giovani generazioni.

Dr. Abdul El-Sayed just posted a beautiful behind the scenes video from when the polls closed until he took the stage for his victory speech. Watch this. I am crying again. Hope and democracy won. Michigan won and you won Dr. Abdul 💙

Not once in my life has a Muslim tried to force Sharia law on me. But I’ve spent my entire life watching Christians try to turn their religious beliefs into laws I’m forced to live by. The religious takeover I was warned to fear isn’t coming from Muslims.

It took 10 years, but Lindsey Graham’s GOP prophecy has finally come true. I just can’t believe it took this long.
If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed.......and we will deserve it.

Dear @WhiteHouse: trump’s name will never be on the Kennedy Center or the Reflecting Pool. The trump arch will not be built. And in two years, Congress and the next Administration will erase trump’s name and stench from everything he has touched. Ozymandias
Veteran on President Trump's proposed arch: "We reject the vanity, the worship of a single man, over the 400,000 that have earned the right to be remembered; that have earned the right to keep an eye over our nation as they look towards the Lincoln Memorial."

Americans do not want a triumphal arch looming over Arlington National Cemetery. Only Trump wants this. We are a Republic, not a dictatorship. Maybe the small handful of remaining Republicans in Congress can FINALLY grow a spine and stand up to him on a 99/1% issue.

What do you do about Americans who think they’re getting accurate information from Turning Point USA, or Prager U, or any of these other absurdly obvious right wing propaganda scam organizations? How do we hold THEM accountable for the lies they use to divide and weaken us as a society? 1/2

Did the rampant Islamophobia in the Michigan race have an impact on the Florida race? Was that what Trump was hoping would happen everywhere?

Devastating montage from Tucker Carlson called ‘The Great Betrayal’ showing the lies, deception, and false promises of Trump, Rubio, Hegseth, Bondi, Patel, Bongino, Blanche and Lutnick about the war, the economy and Epstein.

TWO PICTURES TO DESCRIBE THE DYSTOPIAN WORLD WE ARE LIVING IN‼️🇷🇺🇺🇸🇺🇦 One of the most horrifying spectacles we are witnessing: human suffering turned into a celebration for the cameras. In the first picture, US-sanctioned Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev presents the First Lady with a drawing, reportedly from a Ukrainian girl supposedly said to have “chosen” to be evacuated to Russia. He represents Vladimir Putin, wanted by the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes involving the unlawful deportation and transfer of Ukrainian children. Yes, you read that correctly. A Ukrainian child taken to the country invading her homeland, presented as a heartwarming story by the representative of the man wanted over the deportation of Ukrainian children. In the second picture are the mothers and grandmother of Oleshky, whose children with disabilities were abducted by Russia in 2022. At Emile Foundation, we worked alongside their relatives to trace them and establish their locations. We know who they are. We know where they are. Yet despite repeated requests, Russia refuses to return them. Four years later, these families are still waiting. Still pleading. Still holding photographs instead of their loved ones. Is this the new world order? The aggressor celebrated as a saviour while the families of those it abducted are left behind? After Alaska, I consider this the most embarrassing and morally horrifying spectacle yet. A ceasefire turned into a carefully staged public relations show, while families continue to suffer. Where is the shame? Where is the humanity? Watching this, I see human lives pushed aside for publicity, political trophies and awards. Officials congratulate one another while mothers beg for their children. And then you wonder why you lost the elections. Americans have empathy. They care about human lives. That includes Republicans who refuse to associate themselves with this shameful spectacle. You cannot expect people to abandon their humanity out of political loyalty. Look at these two pictures. Then tell these mothers what, exactly, they are supposed to celebrate.

Michigan is privileged to have @AbdulElSayed shine so bright!
Senator-elect @AbdulElSayed responds to the Islamophobic attacks against him: “You can talk about my name and my faith all day if you want to. But they’re not the reason you can’t afford gas or you can’t afford your groceries, not the reason you can’t see a doctor.”
