I get the feeling that the insufferable lawmaker from the Colorado Western Slope will drop out instead of trying to run in another district. She needs to fix her life and her damn family before she is able to conduct at least her job as a lawmaker (which she barely does any work as).
Her son is becoming a thug.
Just think, if he was Black, the far right would be all over this and demanding his parents be arrested or held accountable for one's actions.
It looks more and more difficult for Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) to win over constituents in the 4th Congressional District of Colorado. It was bad enough for her in the 3rd Congressional District where she spent less than 20% of her time in.
Instead of running a fair race against conservative Democrat Adam Frisch, Boebert decided to end her run for the 3rd and jump into a competitive 4th primary.
Her ex-husband Jayson was recently arrested for domestic violence.
She was a total bitch when she was on an outing with her boyfriend. He groped her and she fondled him. She vaped and recorded the Beetlejuice musical. When they asked her to leave, she ended up throwing up the finger towards staff.
She was called a bitch by the insufferable Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA).
Greene spends less than 15% of her time in her 14th Congressional District of Georgia.
The two had almost came to blows last year. Republicans had to break them up after they got into a shooting match in the women's restroom. Greene was booted from the moronic Freedom Caucus.
Boebert threw away a symbolic tribute to the victims of the Uvalde school shooting.
And now, the 37-year old mother of four and grandmother of one has to deal with another scandal.
Like father, like son.
Tyler Boebert, the eldest son and father of one was arrested in Rifle, Colorado on a series of criminal charges.
The police department in Rifle, Colorado, posted on Facebook that Tyler Boebert was arrested at approximately 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday and he faces five felony counts. The charges include four felony counts of criminal possession of identification documents and one felony count of conspiracy to commit a felony, according to police.
According to the Garfield County Jail, Boebert was being held on 22 possible charges, including misdemeanors.
It's a family affair. Jayson, Lauren and Tyler Boebert had run-ins.
Tyler Boebert was listed as an inmate at the jail as of Wednesday morning, but later in the evening, he had been released after posting a $1,250 bond, the Garfield County clerk and recorder confirmed. He is due back in court on April 11.
In a statement, Lauren Boebert said "I love my son Tyler, who has been through some very difficult, public challenges for a young man and the subject of attention that he didn't ask for. It breaks my heart to see my child struggling and, in this situation, especially when he has been provided multiple opportunities to get his life on track."
Lauren Boebert continued that "as an adult and father, Tyler will take responsibility for his actions and should be held accountable for poor decisions just like any other citizen." Her office announced in June 2023 that Tyler had become a father to a baby boy.
The suspects are innocent until prove guilty in a court of law.
Boebert gain fame in 2014, when she started a Hooters-themed restaurant where the servers were wearing shorts, cowboy boots, cowboy hats and a loaded pistol on their hips. The lawmaker gained fame in 2019 when she confronted Beto O'Rouke during a stump speech about gun reform.
Boebert was defiant during the 2020 coronavirus pandemic. She defied Gov. Jared Polis and the state authorities by opening up her restaurant in full capacity and not wearing facial masks. That drove her to run for office.
She defeated the Republican backed Scott Tipton in the primary. Boebert won the endorsement in the general from Donald J. Trump.
In her first match with Frisch, she barely won. She won with less than 600 votes.
Frisch called Boebert, Greene, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) "performance acts" instead of effective lawmakers.
February 29 is a day that happens every four years.
Democrats show their true colors when it comes to bigotry. Today, as a Black man, I am truly ashamed of the party and their supporters. They claim to be the party of diversity but in reality, they are the wolves in sheep's clothing. The Republicans are venomous snakes and they will bite. They have no problem exploiting race, xenophobia and whataboutism. It is the reason for MAGA and former president Donald J. Trump.
The Democrats pretend to be on the side of people of color and the minority, but in actual reality, they are silently racist and bigoted towards difference.
So today, the Democrats who support President Joe Biden are calling a Democratic lawmaker a "terrorist sympathizer" because she is a person of color, a woman, a Muslim, a fourth generation Palestinian American, a passionate American, a critic of Israel and willing to hold her party and her president accountable for its support of that country.
Biden has won Michigan with 80% of the vote. Uncommitted had 15% of the vote. Dean Phillips had 2% and eliminated candidate Marianne Williamson had 3%.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) on Tuesday she will vote uncommitted to protest Biden's refusal to call for a permanent ceasefire and an end to the aid to Israel.
Here's the reactions from some of Biden's most adamant supporters.
Malcolm Nance, a favorite of the progressives is a former military intelligence official, ex-Republican, Black American veteran and pro Israel. He is hoping the pro Israeli lobby oust her, Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) and Rep. Delia Ramriez (D-IL).
They're mixed with the dehumanizing rhetoric that Israel used on those in Gaza, The West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Yemen and Egypt.
@RashidaTlaib u aren't commited to us! You didn't give a damn about black children being poisoned by lead pipes in Michigan, which is why you voted against the infrastructure bill. Yet you want black people to commit to voting uncommitted? I dare u to respond https://t.co/1CI39ORQvspic.twitter.com/3lto7fH9Vp
Right…will Rashida Tlaib and her fellow ‘uncommitted’ Michiganders call out Hamas once and for all? Because until they do so I don’t respect them.
Their anti-biden BS is stronger than their disdain for Hamas who is still holding hostages and refuses to surrender to end the war. https://t.co/BR4nCNo1By
Looking at Rashida Tlaib after Dark Brandon seems to clear above 80% and Uncommited shrank down to 13%. pic.twitter.com/PVB4Tblnke

Want terrorist Rashida Tlaib out of Congress? Here's how: VOTE to get enough Democrats back in the House to have a decisive majority w/o Tlaib, then push Dem leaders and the rest of the House to expel her.
If u see these terrorists please call FBI, made up term "Palestinians" which has never existed in history were raping babies & cutting off breasts not JUST hamas but Palestinians were killing innocent people & these women are terrorists@RashidaTlaib@IlhanMNpic.twitter.com/HqdZurhbS6

Again, if you are blaming those opposed to genocide for Biden's potential loss of the presidency, then it's on you for the "get in line", "you're with us or against us" and "you're a terrorist" rhetoric.
Malcolm Nance feuds with Michigan lawmaker Rashida Tlaib and Arab American voters who oppose Biden's support for Israel.
Arab American voters in Michigan made a significant portion of the electorate in this election. Over 100,000 voters means a lot.
Critics of the president have protested the Israel-Hamas war across the state, which is home to a large Arab American population. However, it remains unclear if the "uncommitted" ballot option Tuesday, which organizers urged Democratic voters to choose to send a message to Washington, will garner enough votes to earn any delegates at the party's national convention this summer.
Enough of the racism.
Enough of the dehumanizing.
Enough of the Islamophobia.
Enough of the anti-semitism.
Enough of the equating of Israel to Judaism.
Enough of the gaslighting.
President Joe Biden and his supporters must realize that they are not a cult. We do not blindly follow our leaders. That stuff is lost on Trump and his supporters. They will literally buy $400 shoes and threaten federal officials because of their mentally ill support.
Democrats must be united in this race. Losing voters because of dehumanizing rhetoric and this "us versus them" bullshit will only doom the party.
Oklahoma woman turns 100 on Leap Day. She has 25 actual birthdays.
If you were born on Feb. 29, you get to be one of the rare people to have an actual birthday every four years. Now normally, you may celebrate the birthday on Feb. 28 or Mar. 1. But on the actual day, it is an amazing feat of accomplishment.
Over hundreds of Americans have birthdays on Feb. 29.
Mary Lea Forsythe of Sand Springs, Oklahoma, will celebrate her 100th birthday on Thursday, despite only ever celebrating 25 actual birthdays.
Forsythe is a part of a rare group of people called leaplings, a name for those born on Feb. 29 or Leap Day. There are about 5 million people worldwide who share the leap birthday out of about 8 billion people on the planet.
Tulsa woman celebrates her "25th" birthday.
The 100-year-old was born on Feb. 29, 1924 — a date that only occurs every four years known as a leap year. Forsythe was recognized last week by the Centenarians of Oklahoma and highlighted on their social media page.
The centenarian is a passionate music fan and even plays the piano and mandolin, according to the post. She attended Sand Springs High School and was in the school's All State Chorus during all four years. Forsythe's favorite song is "Sitting at the Feet of Jesus."
Her 100th birthday celebration was hosted by the Osage Hills Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, ABC News reports. She is an active member of the organization.
Forsythe told ABC News that she would often celebrate her non-leap year birthday on days surrounding her birthdate, which would sometimes include her late husband's birthday, March 6.
Her husband was her high school sweetheart and they were married from 1942 until his death in 2011, ABC News reports.
Notable in the hip-hop world is the Queens-based rapper Ja Rule. He turns 48 years old [12 years old]. The rapper gained popularity in the late 1990s and had hits like "Mesmerize", "Between Me and You", "Holla, Holla", "Clap Back" and "I'm Real."
His career nosedived when he got into a longstanding feud with 50 Cent and his ally Eminem. He also felt backlash for being a figure in the infamous Fyre Festival. The concert was a shitshow and many attendees were robbed of their money and their chance to enjoy music from Ja Rule and promised acts.
Ja Rule turns 48 year old.
Even on social media, the rapper still holds some animosity towards them.
The rapper was supposed to perform in the United Kingdom but is apparently denied entry due to his previous convictions on felonies in the United States.
50 being the social media troll was all over it. He even claimed to buy a handful of tickets to sabotage Ja's comeback tour. Ja was expected to perform with Mya, Lloyd and Keri Hilson.
I’m so devastated I can’t believe the UK won’t let me in I’ve spent a half million dollars in production of my own money to put this tour together only to be denied entry DAYS before my shows this is not fair to me or my fans these venues are 85% sold and now I can’t come… ๐คฌ๐
The UK is one of the few European countries that restricts entry to people with criminal records. In general, you will likely be denied entry if you have been convicted of a crime punishable by 23 months or more under British law or served more than 12 months in prison. This… ๐คฌ
Ja will be refocusing on trying to release his first album in 12 years. He last album Pain is Love 2 was released in 2012 on Empire Distribution and charted at 197 on the Billboard Top 200 albums. The rapper was sentenced for gun violations and tax evasion.
To this day, Ja Rule and Raymond Scott (formerly Benzino) became the victims of Eminem and his Shady Records crew. 50 signed to Dr. Dre and Eminem in 2002 and became one of the world's top performing acts of the 2000s.
Another state declares former president Donald J. Trump ineligible. The state of Illinois declares the former president will not be on their primary ballot. It will certainly rile up the far right and they will immediately pivot to Chicago, the state's largest city.
Of course, Trump will claim it is a Democrat plot and Joe Biden's fault. Even if Republicans bring it up, they'll just claim they're Democrats anyway.
This was done by a state judge. It will lead to immediate death threats on that judge, the county prosecutor and state governor J.B. Pritzker.
A Cook County judge ruled the Illinois State Board of Elections must take former President Donald Trump's name off the state's March 19 primary ballot Wednesday. But she placed her order on hold until Friday to allow an appeal.
Judge Tracie Porter issued her decision after a group of voters trying to remove Trump's name from the primary ballot over the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol sued to counter the election board's unanimous rejection of its effort. The five voters argued Trump is ineligible to hold office because he encouraged and did little to stop the Capitol riot.
The case is one of dozens of lawsuits filed to remove Trump from the ballot, arguing he is ineligible due to a rarely used clause in the 14th Amendment prohibiting those who “engaged in insurrection” from holding office. The U.S. Supreme Court earlier this month signaled that it is likely to reject this strategy when it heard an appeal of a Colorado ruling removing Trump from the ballot there. Like the Illinois decision, that Colorado ruling is on hold until the appeal is finished.
Illinois judge ruled in a 38-page brief stating the former president was ineligible due to his enhancing and advocacy for overthrowing the U.S. government. She will be a target of right wing vitriol.
Porter, in her 38-page ruling, wrote the petition by the group of voters should have been granted because they had met their burden and the Election Board's decision was “clearly erroneous.”
“This is a historic victory,” said Ron Fein, Legal Director of Free Speech For People, co-lead counsel in the case. “Every court or official that has addressed the merits of Trump’s constitutional eligibility has found that he engaged in insurrection after taking the oath of office and is therefore disqualified from the presidency.”
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung issued a statement saying “an activist Democrat judge in Illinois summarily overruled the state’s board of elections and contradicted earlier decisions from dozens of other state and federal jurisdictions. This is an unconstitutional ruling that we will quickly appeal.”
Porter said her order would be put on hold if the Supreme Court’s ruling is ultimately “inconsistent” with hers.
By the way, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana and Ohio had tornadoes in February. Wow, climate change is very real. Folks who didn't hear the sirens are more at risk for death in the case of a tornado, hurricane, tsunami, missile or a nuclear attack.
My hometown of Dayton, Ohio has several tornado touchdowns. I was asleep and didn't even notice until the coworkers talked about it. It was five EF-2 tornadoes that ripped through Riverside, Springfield, Fairborn, Wright Patterson Air Force Base and South Charleston. It was some confirmation in metro Columbus as well.
A bimodal severe weather threat produced multiple supercells from northern Illinois to Ohio. Multiple tornadoes were confirmed most of which were overnight, including an EF2 tornado near Grand Blanc, Michigan, an EF1 tornado in Marengo Township, Michigan, and a tornado near Gary, Indiana that moved over Lake Michigan. Numerous properties were struck across the severe risk area, with many outbuildings, vehicles, and homes being damaged or destroyed. Numerous tornadoes were confirmed in the Chicagoland area, specifically Kane County, and the Dayton and Columbus metro areas in Ohio.
Bombshell allegations say that Sean "Puffy" Combs engaged in sexually predatory acts on Meek Mill and Usher. The allegations keep piling on Combs.
Known as Diddy, Combs was the founder of Bad Boy Records. The label was known for top talents, Notorious B.I.G., 112, Faith Evans, Carl Thomas, Ma$e, Machine Gun Kelly, French Montana, Cassie, Total and Yung Joc.
Combs was notorious for his lavish and flamboyant lifestyle.
Now he is the subject of numerous lawsuits.
Gotta love Uncle Murda for making a wordplay.
Did he do it? DID HE DRUG HER! DID HE RAPE HER! DID HE RAPE HIM! is coded to say Sean "Puffy" Combs raped women and men.
The Boondocks talked about the industry. Kat Williams talked about the industry.
Wack 100 exposed a former friend who Combs once associated with.
Yeah, it's the year of winners and losers.
Combs has been holed up in his penthouse worried that his popularity and freedom are on the line. He has seven lawsuits so far and more to come. The feds and Nevada state prosecutors are trying to link Tupac Shakur's killing to Combs.
He is a dangerous man. It's been told that he orders hits on people, has connections to powerful people, have members of NYPD on his payroll, ties to gang members and still writes and produce music for many up and coming acts. Oh, he slept with ones who rise to that occasion.
The media mogul resigned from Revolt TV in late 2023. He was also dropped by 20 companies. His companies that have Ciroc and Sean John are on the chopping block for new owners.
His latest album on Motown was a flop and he was dropped from the label.
The suits came as New York’s Adult Survivors Act was set to expire in November 2023.
The law allowed accusers to bring forward cases of sexual abuse even beyond the statutory time limit, and Diddy was not the only big name to be hit. Bill Cosby, Jamie Foxx, New York Mayor Eric Adams, music producer L.A. Reid, photographer Terry Richardson and Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose were also named as defendants in separate lawsuits.
Meek Mill swallowed a red pill and been chirping Candace Owens propaganda. Now he is swallowing a hot plate of scandal. All that simping for Donald J. Trump got you messed up.
Lil Rod on Monday filed a 70-page lawsuit at the Federal District Court in Manhattan against Mr Combs detailing the allegations of sexual assault, drug dealing, hiring sex workers and participating in various sexual activities, all of which he was forced to endure while living with Mr Combs to work on his album.
Lil Rod claimed to have produced nine of the tracks in Diddy’s latest “The Love Album: Off the Grid,” and was only paid a pittance of $21,000 despite living in Diddy’s house for the 13 months it took to work on the album.
Meek Mill and Usher at a Diddy party.
He claimed Diddy on several occasions groped his “anus and crotch without consent,” and even exploited his admiration of Stevie J, whom he idolised and looked up to, to force him into engaging in homosexual acts.
Lil Rod said he was showed a video of Stevie J having gay sex with a Caucasian male without condom, and was told by Diddy that “this is a normal practice in the music industry, look even Stevie J is doing it.” He attached a screenshot taken of the video to the lawsuit.
According to the producer’s account, he was forced to watch Diddy taking showers through his glass door bathroom, and was given drinks that had been heavily laced with cocaine and other hard drugs to make him lose his willpower not to have gay sex.
The producer, describing himself as a “heterosexual Christian man” said he was “uncomfortable with Mr Combs’ advances” and complained to his Chief of Staff, Kristina Khorram (“KK”), who flippantly dismissed him saying “you know, Sean will be Sean.”
Ms Khorram downplayed the constant groping of his anus as Diddy’s way of “showing that he likes you.”
Just us boys.
To sweeten his advances, Lil Rod said Diddy promised to make him a Grammy winner in the producer of the year category provided he “engaged in homosexuality.”
The lawsuit accuses Khorram of helping Diddy “to groom him [Lil Rod] into accepting a homosexual relationship.”
“Mr. Jones was terrified of Mr. Combs. He felt like he could not tell him no. Mr. Combs consistently made it clear that he has immense power in the music industry and with law enforcement,” the lawsuit said.
“Mr Combs promised to make sure that Mr Jones wins producer of the year at the Grammys if he engaged in homosexuality,” the lawsuit said.
Diddy, according to Lil Rod, also disclosed that he had had sex with a male rapper whose description fit Meek Mills’.
“Mr Combs informed Mr Jones that he had engaged in sexual intercourse with rapper5 (Redacted), R&B singer6 (Redacted), and Stevie J.”
The lawsuit described rapper 5 whose name was redacted, as Philadelphia bred and a former boyfriend to rapper Nicki Minaj.
Meek Mill hails from Philadelphia and dated Nicki between 2014 and 2016. His rap album “Championships” received a Grammy nomination in 2020 and a second nomination with his “Back of My Mind” album in 2022. He won none.
In 2020, Nigeria’s award winning Afrobeats artiste Burna Boy announced that Diddy was among the executive producers for his ‘Twice As Tall’ album. The album eventually won Burna Boy his first Grammy award in 2021.
Diddy was also exposed to sexual assault and rape allegations last year when his former record label signee and ex-girlfriend, Cassandra Ventura, who sued him for $30 million. Diddy’s team of lawyers said their client denied the allegations and swiftly swung into action “amicably” settling the suit within 24 hours.
Lil Rod is similarly demanding $30 million as compensation for his work on the album as well as the abuse he claimed to have endured in Diddy’s home.
Mitch McConnell is out as Republican Senate Leader.
There is hints that he may not last throughout his term as Senator to the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Right now, the word on the street is that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is no longer leading the senate minority after the 2024 elections.
The infamous porker who said his biggest joy was denying former president Barack Obama his third Supreme Court nomination. Before that he was hoping Obama would be a one term president.
Former president Donald J. Trump who built a legacy on ramming through three Supreme Court nominees with on being in an election year was once close to McConnell.
McConnell denied Obama in an election year his third pick but wasted no time running through Trump's third pick. Now Trump has soured on him. So I guess this is the Trump takeover of the Republican Party.
McConnell was quietly working against MAGA. Trump was dogging on McConnell and his wife, former Trump Transportation Secretary Elanie Chao. McConnell’s legacy was his subservience to Trump, who has hurled racist attacks against Chao, his wife. Although he called Trump morally responsible for inciting the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol, McConnell shielded the ex-president from being convicted in his second Senate impeachment trial, which would have barred Trump from being able to run for office again. McConnell was hoping that Congress would impeach Trump for Jan. 6. He knew if he got on board with it, his political career was over. He and Kevin McCarthy were facing backlash from within the Republican Party. There are now reports that he may consider endorsing Trump’s 2024 presidential run.
He said McConnell and the establishment are willing to give Democrats victories and are ignoring how MAGA is a movement to stop it.
I mean McConnell was calling out the candidates who lost easy elections. Mind you, Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Nevada were races the Republicans could have easily picked up. But as McConnell put it, it was about "quality" not the quantity.
McConnell freezing in pressers and his falls showed some concern among Republicans and even President Joe Biden.
McConnell was underscoring the tectonic shift in the Republican Party in recent years away from Ronald Reagan toward the tone and vision of former President Donald Trump.
Speaking from the Senate floor on Wednesday, McConnell grew emotional and reflected on his age and the direction of his party under Donald Trump, the likely 2024 GOP presidential nominee. The Kentucky senator’s influence in his conference has waned in recent years and he has had several health scares that slowed him considerably.
McConnell was first elected to the upper chamber in 1984 during Reagan’s administration. He quickly moved up the ranks and became party leader in 2007 after Tennessee Sen. Bill Frist stepped down from the post, earning a reputation as a ruthless Machiavellian tactician. Last year, he fulfilled a longtime goal by becoming the longest-serving Senate leader in history.
This is sad. I mean only in America can someone allow their underage child inside an adult entertainment facility. On top of that, the child is an entertainer.
It should raise alarm bells knowing that a child was allowed to perform in an adult entertainment facility. The state where this happened.....
The state where Republicans believe it's freedom.
The state that looks like a penis.

The state that has a former presidential candidate who is a dick. By the way, the current governor who quietly disappeared from the junk food media's rising stars profile.
The state where 28 million people are at risk of potential flooding, alligator attacks, mass shootings, contiguous diseases, hurricanes and severe droughts.
The state that the former president, an annoying media agitator and so many other MAGAts moved to.
Florida.
Home of Lil Wayne, Kodak Black, Raymond Scott (formerly Benzino), Forgiato Blow, Ye, Bill O'Reilly, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Ron DeSantis, Matt Drudge, Charlie Kirk, Donald J. Trump and a whole lot of stupidity.
Great place to visit. Not the smartest place to live.
Lil RT, a 9-year old rapper was performing at Miami strip club. It was seen on social media and folks are outraged that it allowed that to happen. His mother and manager should be held accountable. The Florida Liquor and Tobacco Agency could revoke that facility's license.
Chaya Raichik is certainly making noise about. The far right agitator will certainly find a grift.
A 100,000 voters choosing uncommitted made a difference,
As expected, President Joe Biden and former president Donald J. Trump won Michigan.
Yet, the results show a picture that troubles both candidates.
Biden carried the state with 80% of the vote with "uh oh" uncommitted reigning in at 15%. That means over 100,000 voters rejected the president thanks to his fucking hardline stance towards Israel. Dean Phillips got 2% and former candidate Marianne Williamson got 3%.
Trump carried the state with 60% over his rival Nikki Haley. That 30% rejected MAGA due to his constant foot in the mouth disease as well as his criminal indictments.
The state is clearly in play.
So now I have Michigan in the TOSS UP category for both U.S. Senate and Presidential races. If they nominate Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), she will face a backlash from Arab American voters. Actor Hill Harper will be a scapegoat to the Republican noise machine and show their hypocrisy when it comes to celebrities running for government office.
Peter Meijer, one of the heirs to Meijer superstores is likely the Republican Senate nominee and he will play the moderate conservative.
Trump will forgive him. Meijer voted for impeaching Trump for the insurrection.
Michigan is in play and Biden lost 3% of the voters.
Listen to Michigan, a campaign started and spearheaded by predominantly younger Arab and Muslim organizers, led a push for Democrats to vote uncommitted in the primary as a protest vote.
They're urging Biden to call for an immediate and permanent cease-fire in Gaza and stop sending U.S. aid to Israel. It comes nearly five months after the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas on Israel that killed 1,200 people. Since then, almost 30,000 people in Gaza have been killed.
"We have led a movement that is far exceeding expectations, using the ballot box to urge America to stop killing our families," said Listen to Michigan spokesperson and Democratic strategist Abbas Alawieh at a watch party in Dearborn, Mich. "That's all we're asking for. Just stop killing our families," he added.
Dearborn has been at the center of this movement, where more than half the population is of Middle Eastern or North African descent.

"This coalition is one that wants to bring the morality back to this country because somewhere along the line, we have lost it," said Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud at the watch party Tuesday night.
"We will be that movement to bring [elected officials] back in line, if not with this primary election, then with November," he added.
Joe Biden and Rashida Tlaib. The Michigan lawmaker is voting uncommitted due to Biden's continuous support for Israel.
Today is the Michigan Republican and Democratic presidential primary. It will likely be a test of whether President Joe Biden has the energy of the Democratic Party base to carry the state again. It is also a chance for either former president Donald J. Trump or former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley to make inroads with Michiganers.
Trump carried Michigan in 2016. Biden carried Michigan in 2020.
Michigan is considered a swing state.
Democrats also have Dean Phillips, the former contender Marianne Williamson and uncommitted. If the president does carry the state but has either Phillips or uncommitted carried a significant number of votes, then it puts Biden in a position of concern.
Phillips has lost most of the races so far and he still wants to be in this race despite he has no visible path to victory, he is laying off staff and his campaign is facing scandals.
It is mainly Biden and uncommitted.
Arab Americans are angered by the dehumanizing rhetoric of Democratic leaders, Biden's adamant supporters and the tone deaf reaction to protests to a permanent ceasefire.
The path to 270 relies on him carrying Pennsylvania and Michigan. He does not need Arizona, Georgia and Wisconsin. He needs two swing states to reach 270. He loses those two states, it's curtains.
Biden and Trump are both unpopular with their respective parties. But Trump and his supporters which is the MAGA wing are very motivated to have him again.
The Democrats are going to risk losing a generation of votes. The Black voters, Arab Americans, Muslims and young voters are angry at Biden. I am very angry at Biden and Democrats. Their support for Israel is a red line.
Biden has hinted that the U.S. is working for a temporary ceasefire and not a permanent ceasefire. Also they haven't release any details on how the Gaza Strip is gonna be rebuilt and why Israel wants to continue occupying Gaza, East Jerusalem, Golan Heights and the West Bank.
It is basically an American based policy that continues to allow Israel occupying power and little to no accountability for the crimes it has committed.
What people do in the bedroom is their business. What people do to sabotage or exploit their fame for sexual pleasures is sex trafficking and rape.

Bill Cosby, Jamie Foxx, New York Mayor Eric Adams, music producer L.A. Reid, photographer Terry Richardson and Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose were also named as defendants in separate lawsuits.
“For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy,” Combs said in a December 2023 statement.
“Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday. Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth,” he added.
Producer Lil Rob said Combs was a predator.
Not many people want to associate with him. Even Daune "Keefe D" Davis is snitching saying that Combs ordered the hit on Tupac Shakur. Keefe D and the alleged gunman Orlando "Blue Baby Lane" Anderson were in Las Vegas, the night when Tupac Shakur and Marion "Big Suge" Knight were shot while waiting at a traffic light. The Keefe D trial is slated for mid-2024. Anderson was killed in 1998.
Combs who also goes by the name Puff Daddy or Diddy has a reputation of being flamboyant and lavish.
Even some believe he gets in the coke and goes full on sexual predator. Kind of like his buddy Stevie J and Diddy's former buddy Raymond Scott (formerly known as rapper Benzino). Scott has also allegations of sexually predatory behavior. Stevie J is named in a lawsuit alleging that he sexually harassed men and Combs showed videos of him and Stevie J having sex with men and each other. Scott had allegedly slept with the underage niece of his blood sister and underage daughter of Stevie J.
On November 16, 2023, Combs' former partner Cassie Ventura filed a lawsuit against him accusing him of rape, sex trafficking, and physical abuse. The lawsuit also suggested that Combs was responsible for exploding the car of Ventura's then-boyfriend Kid Cudi. Combs and Ventura reached an undisclosed settlement the following day, and the lawsuit was dismissed. On November 23, 2023, two further lawsuits were filed against Combs by two additional complainants, alleging sexual assault and revenge porn. One of the lawsuits claimed that in 1990 or 1991, he and Aaron Hall had sexually abused a woman, with Combs recording the incident.
Now another lawsuit comes forth and it involves a man who said that Combs tried to proposition him for sex and held parties where he laced drinks and tried to romp on young women and underage girls.
Producer Lil Rod, whose given name is Rodney Jones, is accusing the media mogul of operating a racketeering enterprise, groping him, forcing him to engage in sexual acts with sex workers and lacing alcohol for the guests in his home, including underaged girls.
“Throughout his time with Mr. Combs, Mr. Jones witnessed, experienced, and endured many things that went far beyond his role as a Producer on the Love album,” the 73-page complaint says. “Mr. Combs required Mr. Jones to record him constantly. … As a result, Mr. Jones has secured hundreds of hours of footage and audio records of Mr. Combs, his staff, and his guests engaging in serious illegal activity.”
The lawsuit not only names Diddy as a defendant but also his 30-year-old son, Justin Dior Combs; his chief of staff, Kristina Khorram; Universal Music Group CEO Sir Lucian Grainge; and former Motown Records CEO Ethiopia Habtemariam.
In the lawsuit, Lil Rod claims that Diddy forced him to work in the bathroom as Diddy showered and that Diddy engaged in “constant unsolicited and unauthorized groping and touching of his [Lil Rod’s] anus.”
Lil Rod also accused Diddy of drugging him in February 2023 when he woke up unclothed, disoriented and in bed with Diddy and two sex workers.
Combs and Stevie J have a cozy relationship. They even showered together allegedly.
The lawsuit accuses Khorram of helping Diddy “to groom him [Lil Rod] into accepting a homosexual relationship.”
“Mr. Jones was terrified of Mr. Combs. He felt like he could not tell him no. Mr. Combs consistently made it clear that he has immense power in the music industry and with law enforcement,” the lawsuit said.
It added that Diddy tried to intimidate Lil Rod by showing off his guns. The lawsuit also claims that Diddy admitted to Lil Rod that he was “responsible for” the fatal 1999 shooting of a rapper named Shyne.
The producer also created a GoFundMe page aimed at raising $50,000 for his legal fees.
Lil Rod produced a portion of Diddy’s latest body of work, “The Love Album,” which was released in September 2023, which he says he was underpaid for.
“Lil Rod is nothing more than a liar who filed a $30 million lawsuit shamelessly looking for an undeserved payday. His reckless name-dropping about events that are pure fiction and simply did not happen is nothing more than a transparent attempt to garner headlines,” Diddy’s attorney Shawn Holley told HuffPost.
“We have overwhelming, indisputable proof that his claims are complete lies,” she added. “We will address these outlandish allegations in court and take all appropriate action against those who make them.”
Holley previously represented actor Lindsay Lohan, baseball player Trevor Bauer, actor Danny Masterson and, for a moment, rapper Tory Lanez. She was also on O.J. Simpson’s legal team. Holley did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment.
Diddy was accused last year of sexual violence by four women, starting with Cassie, his ex-girlfriend.
