I've seen rats leave a sinking ship all the time. I've even, bafflingly, seen rats get on a sinking ship. But this might be the first time I've ever seen a rat get on a ship that already fully sank.

- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Haley Stevens (D-Mich.)
Does she still get to use the "D" when she was expelled from the Michigan Democratic Party?
Has she tried smacking her lips a little harder?
Stevens addressed her “unwavering” support for Israel
If only her support for her constituents was as unwavering, she might have won the primary.
I guess supporting Israel is more important than supporting Michigan.
She's scratching her neck asking if anyone got anymore of that aipac money
Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.)
Editors sleeping on the job, smh.
human signaling
Hassan Piker and El-Sayed are far from antisemitic.
Go away bitch
Fuck that zionist money grabbing aipac bitch
She is doing her Tulsi Gabbard impersonation.
Probably want a job with trump as press secretary
You're onto something. Tulsi was compromised by Russia; Stevens by Israel
How many Zacharia’s you think she’d last?
I'm betting she'd make it 1 Mooch + 1 Zacharia.
She will never get the job. Not pretty enough to be a trump bimbo.
Nothing a few rounds of Mar a Lago face won't fix!
It's not like any of the other picks are actually attractive either, just full of bad plastic surgery.
We got so lucky this psychopath didn’t get to pull a fetterman
I expect a few new Fettermans will unveil themselves in February.
It’ll be nice to have a bit of a buffer in both houses.
If it would be even nicer if they got their asses whooped by their voters.
Eat shit, Haley.
Who cares what this has-been says now?
Anyone bothering to stop scrolling. So I guess us, comrade
Not true. I only came in here because I saw the comment count above zero.
Same here, friend.
Some people just don't know when to shut the fuck up, do they?
Call up her office in DC and tell her how much of a loser she is.
You betcha!
Were her statements written by AI again?
AI-PAC.
Bye Felicia
She was clearly a republican plant... both in the trojan-horse sense and in the intelligence sense.
I'd say she's more of an Israeli plant than anything.
If I were to guess the kind of plant, I'd say cabbage.
cabbage
Short with a dense head. Sounds about right.
she recognized that her “decision has consequences.”
Evidently not lol
Sorest loser, ever.
It's going to be really tough for her to find ways to get attention now that she's irrelevant and radioactive.
Well sure, since it doesn’t matter.
Oh no!
Anyway.
