Dr. Abdul El-Sayed on the Democratic Party’s core problem: “You cannot just point at him and say we’re better — because at the end of the day both options suck. He just sucks worse.” He’s right. During Covid they gave $750 billion to corporations. Student loan relief was $113 billion. Too expensive, they said. We’re spending $1-2 billion a day on a war that’s driving your gas prices up. But Medicare for All is unrealistic. The richest 10% owns everything. The bottom 90% gets nothing. And we minted billionaires during a pandemic while people couldn’t afford rent. “The money is there. It’s just not there for us.” El-Sayed also said something about impeachment nobody wants to admit: Trump packed Congress with people who owe him their careers. They will never vote to remove him. And Democrats can’t get aligned either. So accountability has to come from somewhere else. That’s why Michigan matters. Full conversation — The Allen Analysis, dropping this week on X. Never stop connecting the dots.

J Street position on aid to Israel: This moment demands a reset. The U.S. should end unconditional financial military subsidies to Israel and to move towards a relationship where we treat Israel like any other ally. J Street supports: (1) Phasing out taxpayer-funded military aid when the current agreement ends in 2028. (2) Ensuring Israel can defend itself, by selling – but not subsidizing with U.S. taxpayer dollars – the weapons it needs, including Iron Dome. (3) Enforcing U.S. law on how American arms are used, including withholding certain weapons when those laws are violated. Why now? The current U.S. aid agreement expires in 2028. This is the moment to chart a smarter path forward. At the same time, after the devastation in Gaza and ongoing suffering in the West Bank, it is clear that the status quo is no longer sustainable. Israel is strong, prosperous and capable of paying for its defense. Treating Israel as an exception and supplying it with a blank check worth billions has made support for the country more divisive and less sustainable. Simply put, the U.S. should treat Israel like any other partner. The normalization of this relationship doesn’t weaken the alliance – it strengthens it, protects democracy and secures long-term bipartisan support.

🚨 Homicides in Boston have fallen over 20% since Mayor Wu assumed office.

Hasan Piker: “My goal is to instill class consciousness in people and help them identify who is actually causing harm to them and in my assessment it’s the billionaires and the corporations not the vulnerable populations. It’s not a trans person or a Guatemalan migrant that’s raising your rent, it’s your landlord”

Boating is not a luxury in South Carolina. It’s a way of life. Our state is home to more than 350,000 registered recreational boats and a marine industry supporting over 27,000 jobs and generating a $6.5 billion economic impact. Our No Tax on Boat Loan Interest Act extends the above-the-line loan interest deduction for cars to boats, allowing American families to deduct up to $10,000 annually in boat loan interest on American-made boats. More affordable boats mean more families recreating on the water, more marine manufacturing jobs in South Carolina, and more investment in an industry already generating billions in economic impact. South Carolina STRONG.
