Why is Mehdi talking about small streamer in Florida instead of Mike Rogers?!?
Replying to @mehdirhasan
A reminder that bad-faith Destiny pal Shannon Watts claimed she wouldn’t be engaging with me and I stopped engaging with her but since then she has been incessantly tweeting about, and quote-tweeting, me and attacking me. Time to mute her. But just wanted to remind everyone of what a bad faith and dishonest figure she is. Defending Israel breaks even otherwise good people’s brains.

This is how leftists operate. They will generally just personally attack and insult anyone they view as oppositional to them. They'll almost never engage substantively— just personal attack after personal attack. Always keep that in mind for those moments they ask for grace.
Keith Edwards & Vanguard Pod CAN'T STOP LAUGHING at Hutch Vanguard: We bullied Hutch out of his lip ring. This was a grown man balding with a lip ring Keith: But this man is bullying me on the internet. I'm being cyberbullied! Vanguard: They're going to make their lane, I'm a simp for the most hackish and corporate Democrats imaginable. Keith: I think the Democratic Party is going to make a terrible choice and start to engage with these folks.

To understand how Lula supporters are feeling right now, imagine Trump went to jail for his Jan 6 insurrection and then Biden/Harris defeated Don Jr in 2024.

Lmao this guy is blaming Obama for high used car prices in 2026. People talk about Trump Derangement Syndrome, but Obama Derangement Syndrome is real as fuck. The Cash For Clunkers program ended 17 years ago. 💀
Barack Obama was horrible in a million different ways, but he doesn’t get anywhere near the hate he deserves for destroying the used car market for an entire generation. 15-year-old cars with 150,000 miles that should be selling for $3,000 are going for $15,000. It’s abominable. Pure destruction and thievery.

Spending a year on the Kostiantynivka axis of the frontline Journalist @DylanBurns1776's latest film shows how the war has fundamentally changed and how the infantry has been forced to adapt and go through extreme conditions as the rise of drones has come to dominate the sky. Editor-in-chief/lead reporter @DevinSanLuis having helped film sections of the film, and now sits down to hear from Dylan about his latest work.

Today is Sunday, October 25th and there are 9 days left until election day. Early voting has begun in states that have it— check your local election calendars. I don't care if you're in the bluest blue state or the reddest red state, go to the polls and vote straight ticket Democrat. We've got to strip as much power away from this administration as we can in this midterm.

I would like a better answer than this @HaleyforMI
BASH: “You're still fully behind Abdul El-Sayed?” STEVENS: “Look, I'm on the Democratic ticket. I can't say that I agree with everything that's gone on… I'm looking to be on the team to support my next governor Jocelyn Benson, and frankly these great Democrats who are working their tails off, who are going to make Hakeem Jeffries the first black Speaker of the House.” BASH: “You didn't mention Abdul El-Sayed in that last answer.” STEVENS: “Well, look, I would just say, you had asked me if I'm still on the team, I'm on the team.”

Lmao Trump supporters are such a weird breed of human being. I wonder what percentage of them are this delusional— to believe that Obama is the one selling hatred. Just truly insane stuff.
He has always thought belittling Trump was the right move. And it never was. The last thing they should be selling is yet more hatred. That is why they lost.

Meanwhile, Mehdi in 2024: "I think the endorsement business is a bit of a joke. I don’t think I need to come out and say, vote Kamala Harris.”
Ridiculous. For all the folks still pretending El-Sayed’s race is the same as Cooper’s or Peltola’s, do they have former Dem rivals refusing to fully endorse them on national TV? ‘Blue no matter who’ was a hypocritical centrist lie and this hypocrisy may hurt Dems in 2028.

Remember when you guys elected Trump twice and he blew up the deficit more than any president in American history both times?
Remember when he promised Obamacare would reduce the deficit

I asked ChatGPT to depict what a Cheesecake Factory would look like if Saddam Hussein applied his tastes to it and... yeah. This is very Trumpy.
This line is getting praise on X, but it’s actually elitist garbage written by a speechwriter who clearly hasn’t spent much time in a Cheesecake Factory, which has none of the gaudy Trump aesthetic, and just feels good to say because it represents flyover MAGA “night out.”

Excuse me, I was told that Israel/Palestine was going to be the most important issue on the ballot in 2028.
Useful @gelliottmorris look at who the undecided voters are and what they care about. gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-10…

You guys think @mehdirhasan is going to accuse Obama of being Islamophobic for bringing Saddam into this?
“He’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened up a Cheesecake Factory” — Obama

This is actually a condescending view of working-class people. I grew up in a working-class immigrant family and we ate at Red Lobster and The Cheesecake Factory for "fancy nights out." But even we understood that the White House should not look like the inside of a Red Lobster. Working-class people are not culturally illiterate just because their experiences are shaped by their limited means.
Does Obama not understand that to most Americans the Cheesecake Factory is a very nice and fancy restaurant?

Classic Obama snobbery. Cheesecake Factory is a great option for people who can’t afford a private chef at their Martha’s Vineyard estate.

No. Elon is not an innocent bystander in this. He's not just some private citizen building cool rockets and selling cars. I wish he was. He was a lot better of a CEO and businessman in 2018 than he is in 2026. He's buying up giant media institutions and transforming them into doing his personal politics. He ripped up our government and lied to Americans about what he was doing and why. And he even meddled in elections, using lottery loopholes to fuck with swing states. He was not born in this country, and he has helped put in an admin that has weaponized immigration status and citizenship vs political opponents. His own status should not be safe. And lastly, he used the very institutions that he's trying to rip down now to build up his immense wealth and empire.
It’s gross to fantasize about political prosecutions of Musk. It’s also gross to pursue meritless prosecutions of Trump’s enemies like James Comey (even though he also politicized the investigation of Trump). Our republic needs a ceasefire. Could one grown up just say, “Enough!”

It's crazy how the marching orders go out and they all repeat the same line even if it makes no fucking sense. This is true NPC behavior.
This proves how out of touch the Democrats are with average Americans. I haven't eaten at Cheesecake Factory since 1993, but I know people that love it. Tens of millions of Americans eat at Cheesecake Factory every year. That's a fact.

Most people do not want the inside of the White House to be adorned in cheap gold aesthetic, actually. Mitchell, I think you might be an out-of-touch stupid person.
Way to go, Obama, turning off voters away from Democrats with classist rhetoric. Inflation is high. The people do not care the interior decorating is tacky, and most the people like the Cheesecake Factory anyways!

Lmao maga are so mad. They can't even defend it so instead they're attacking the rhetoric. "Yeah, ok, so the White House is extremely tacky now, but it looks nothing like a Cheesecake Factory!"
