“Donald, if you’re watching”: Abdul El-Sayed makes Trump stunning offer on live TV

Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed is still a few months away from his official swearing in, but he’s already putting offers on the table Donald might have a hard time refusing. During an interview with CNN yesterday, the progressive Democrat pitched the president on Medicare-for-All — with a twist.

“Donald, if you’re watching, we can put your name on it,” El-Sayed said with a smile. “I know you like to put your name on stuff. You can finally meet the unmet promise in America to guarantee everybody healthcare. So, it’s on the table if you want to do it.”

When CNN host Kaitlan Collins asked him if he was serious, El-Sayed answered affirmatively, “I think that would be a win. So if he wants to call it Trumpcare, I’m game.”

VIDEO OF THE DAY: Trump admin caught destroying documents, whistleblowers allege

With the specter of investigations into their endless corruption on the imminent horizon, the Trump regime is understandably shaking in its jackboots. Brian Tyler Cohen and Glenn Kirschner discuss the latest bombshell allegation coming out of the Department of Interior, where multiple whistleblowers allege MAGA goons are destroying evidence related to the renovator-in-chief’s ill-conceived and unauthorized vanity projects across Washington, DC and beyond.

Trump and Netanyahu clash in “shouting match from hell” over Iran war
Donald Trump and fellow war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu apparently had themselves a proper telephone spat over their botched war in Iran this past weekend, with one source describing the heated exchange as “a shouting match from hell.”

While the Israeli prime minister pressed for further escalation, insisting that “toppling the ayatollah regime” was the only viable solution, Trump has changed his tune, signaling a desire to give diplomacy another go.

Eight months into a quagmire he promised would only last a few weeks, Donald is clearly losing interest in Bibi’s grand vision to reshape the MIddle East by wiping out the Islamic Republic. A historic electoral rebuke will do that to you.

Bernie Sanders says he won’t back Chuck Schumer for Senate majority leader
Chuck Schumer’s pathway to once again become the Democratic Party’s majority leader in the Senate is becoming more complicated by the day.

Bernie Sanders came out swinging yesterday, telling reporters he would not support the 75-year-old New Yorker’s bid to lead in the next Congress. “I personally have known Chuck Schumer for over 30 years. And I like Chuck, nobody who works harder than Chuck Schumer. But in my view, the time is now for change. And I will not be supporting Chuck to be reelected as the Democratic leader.”

While there isn’t an official challenger yet to Schumer’s leadership, Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland said Monday that he “hasn’t shut the door” on the possibility of running.

Hakeem Jeffries dragged for “serious leadership problem” as Hegseth impeachment bid falls 7 votes short with 11 Dem no-shows
Failing to whip the vote and letting ELEVEN Democrats no show a resolution to impeach Sec. of War Crimes Pete Hegseth one week after voters sent an unequivocal message to hold the Trump regime accountable is precisely why a lot of progressives aren’t excited about Hakeem Jeffries becoming the next speaker of the House. HUGE fail.


Fox News’ Laura Ingraham warns Markwayne Mullin: MAGA is “not with you” on possibly amnesty deal for immigrants
Fox News teevee talker Laura Ingraham poured a bucket of cold water on the Trump regime’s softening position on immigration, warning DHS Sec. Markwayne Mullin yesterday that MAGA is “not with you” on a possible amnesty deal.

She’s not wrong. The consequences of the regime’s brutal immigrant crackdown go far beyond the pain and suffering of hundreds of thousands of human beings caught up in the crusade. You cannot spend a decade dehumanizing and vilifying an entire group of people, then flip a politically expedient switch and expect your most ardent and agitated supporters to suddenly see the light.


Judge orders DOJ to release explosive Epstein FBI notes on Trump
A federal judge has ordered Attorney General Todd Blanche to release previously unpublished handwritten FBI interview notes involving allegations of sexual abuse against Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, delivering one of three significant rulings in MeidasTouch host Katie Phang’s lawsuit over the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files.

Accountability is coming.


GOP doubles down on extremism after midterm disaster, elects Jim Jordan as House leader
House Republicans responded to last week’s historic shellacking in the midterms by electing Jim frickin’ Jordan to be their next leader. And the vote wasn’t even close.

Jordan, a MAGA sycophant and vocal Big Lie barker who famously turned a blind eye to a sex predator molesting his student athletes for years when he coached wrestling at Ohio State University decades ago, easily defeated Steve Scalise by a vote of 106–73, definitively proving just how little the party learned from its stunning electoral collapse.


Palantir CEO Alex Karp says his company’s products are “essentially progressive” in pathetic pivot toward Democrats
