Her defeat is another loss for progressives in a race defined by Democratic divisions over the war in Gaza, with pro-Israel groups pouring millions into a campaign to oust her from office.

      Usually it’s a bit more subtle, or enough steps removed that people can pretend it’s not so openly monstrous.

      Not this time.

    Only one cool politician left in the US Congress, and it’s partly because she’s from the city with the largest Muslim population in the US.

    And Muslims have faced decades of mass murder and racist propaganda which presumably influences why American Muslims are more clear-eyed about what politics to support. Is that what it takes for people in the US to have any kind of conviction?

    Even before the electoral cycle started, they’ve been going after Bush hard on some trumped up accusations of misuse of campaign funds or something like that. Not unlike what AOC had to deal with briefly - I’m guessing she made some sort of deal with the DNC that Bush didn’t.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
