The pattern is getting hard to pretend not to see. Muslim candidate? Suddenly everyone discovers “security concerns,” “Sharia,” and a very selective memory of 9/11. Meanwhile, overt Islamophobia gets treated like background noise if the speaker has the right connections. If your concern about bigotry only activates when it can be weaponized against the people you already dislike, that isn’t principle. It’s just prejudice with better branding.

Democratic leadership has zero integrity and its only allegiance is to the protection of their own individual wealth and power. they are a party devoid of morality.

Highlight of my day: Listening to Qasim saying "Bullcrap" :) My dear, departed mom used to say that a fair bit. Hadn't heard that for over a decade :( Like Qasim, my mother clearly saw beyond all the bullcrap! :) She called it as it was!

We can't afford to give any race to the Republicans. First we need to get as many Senate seats as possible to prevail on issues, maybe even overcome filibusters, which we actually have a chance of doing. But we also know that Republicans will cheat any way they can to win. This kind of talking down our candidates is only helping them. Here are the states that are in play: Alaska, Montana, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan, New Hampshire & Maine this time, most of which are currently Republican.

Great intellectual duo (Wajahat and Qasim). Thank you both for sharing. I was wondering if it was accurate when I heard about the MAGA non washing one’s body trend. Smells like lunacy to me. Somehow it fits the republican brand. So in addition to being immoral they want to offend with body odor too. And yes Eugenics is age old as racism is a function of capitalism. Peace.

The corporate dems don't want change. They are fine with the racism and bigotry as long as we can go back to a time when the corporate dems weren't questioned and would receive donor money with no questions asked.

Every single accusation! Makes me sick.

Islamophobia is equally insidious to anti-Jewish behavior. Just insane levels of hate.
