I'm not a fan of deploying the heckler's veto, even though that tactic has been routinely used by the far left on Michigan's campus. I did, however, sign up for a spot! If chants of "USA! USA!" break out during Piker's moment with the microphone, it wasn't me!

@magi_jay The persistent impulse to expel moderate members from the Democratic coalition is confounding. The established wing of the party appears more determined to marginalize "law-and-order" Democrats than the progressive far left.

This is important: "I told yall about John Fetterman's 🚩, but I was harassed and ignored." It was not easy, in 2022, to oppose Fetterman. Doing so meant getting swarmed w/ bullies. So it's not *just* that we have been proven right, it's that folks tried to bully us into silence.

Who is we? Because I will never need a Conor Lamb apology form. I proudly voted for Lamb in that primary 4 years ago. I told yall about John Fetterman's 🚩🚩, but I was harassed and ignored.

@TradeUnionJake Hasan Piker hasn’t perpetrated a genocide like the piece of shit you’re defending, fuckface. Used care salesman are not working class lmao it’s not elitist to call out scammy, dishonest work and those who happily do it - again, there’s a reason all of them are Republicans.

On March 19th, NAVI published an urgent warning in @JNS_org regarding what we see as a coordinated attempt by far-left activists to reshape the Michigan Democratic Party. - jns.org/opinion/a-mamd… When “The People’s Coalition” responds with accusations of racism and other illiberal rhetoric, we stand our ground. We believe that labeling substantive political critique as “hate” is a tactic used to avoid debate on critical issues like normalizing extremism and antisemitism in our K-12 and political institutions. See their statement and our brief response in the images.

@RileyTX Your guy is happy to appear on stage with Hasan Piker. You are not the good guy here, my friend. Incredibly elitist to attack people for selling cars. We can’t all work for universities.

@TradeUnionJake What part is not true. We can all see your white knighting for Bernie Moreno above. He’s being ridiculed because he’s a smarmy Republican and the used care salesman of it all is just the cherry on top. Keep defending his honor though.

I’ve been told by those in the know that Abdul El-Sayed is a misogynist. Appearing with Hasan totally tracks.
Adam Wren@adamwren

Scoop in @playbookdc: @hasanthehun, the left-wing political streamer with millions of followers, will rally with Michigan Democratic Senate candidate @AbdulElSayed at Michigan State University and the University of Michigan on April 7. It’s his first appearance on the stump for a candidate.

@RileyTX Just not true, dude. And people shouldn’t be ridiculed because they sold cars.

@RileyTX Don’t think people should be attacked on the basis that they once sold cars for a living. That is true.

@TradeUnionJake I don’t take much stock in the opinions of Republicans. You on the other hand seem to think used car salesman Republicans who get elected to govt and propagate genocide are worth defending against progressives.

@nathanTbernard DSA always screams bloody murder if someone plays hardball with them instead of just surrendering. Spoiled children.

@RileyTX Republicans would say the same about progressive nonprofit staffers.

@TradeUnionJake Well, most used car dealers are straight up scammers. Not an honest living. No surprise they’re all Republicans.

The same guy campaigning with Hasan Piker (who said America deserved 9/11) says that condemning a violent synagogue attack was a “risk”
