The Right Side, The Left Side Or The "Gentle" Side!

If I was wrong, what "is real"?

The Zionists and far right angry at Michael Che and Colin Jost. Last night on SNL, the Weekend Update hosts made a joke that took aim at a factual issue that is happening in real time.

Michael Che made a controversial joke about Israel's high voter turnout, delivering the punchline: "Regardless of if you’re on the right side, or the left side, or the genocide."

Okay, what is controversial about that?

It hurts poor Israel's feelings.

Pro-Israel organizations, such as StandWithUs, heavily criticized Che for utilizing the platform to spread harmful misinformation. Other critics condemned the framing as a "blood libel dressed up as comedy."

We are starting to get tired of this noise being peddled by these fruit cakes.

A fucking joke. They are upset over a joke.

Critics argue that framing Israel's democratic election through the lens of genocide goes far beyond acceptable political satire. Organizations like StandWithUs have labeled the joke dangerous misinformation, pointing out that Israel's election saw high participation across its diverse voting base, including Arab citizens. Online campaigns have begun targeting SNL advertisers to pressure the network into letting Che go.

Conversely, supporters argue the line is protected political satire targeting the Israeli government’s military actions rather than its citizens. Many have pushed back against the calls to fire him, framing the controversy as an attempt to censor late-night comedy and free speech.

Che has faced firing demands over segments regarding Israel. In February 2021, he sparked intense backlash for a Weekend Update joke regarding Israel's COVID-19 vaccine distribution, where he joked: "Israel is reporting that they've vaccinated half of their population. And I'm going to guess it's the Jewish half." That incident similarly provoked viral petitions and condemnation from groups like the American Jewish Committee, though NBC took no disciplinary action at the time.

Imagine, many of these agitators and politicians say things about immigrants, Blacks, Muslims, transgender Americans and disabled. They wet their pants over jokes about President Donald J. Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, their children, Israel, Jews, 9/11, Christians, the Pope and Charlie Kirk.

Before the Abdul El-Sayed and Haley Stevens feud blew up, Israeli ops were angry over the jokes made by Che, Dave Chappelle and Sammy Obeid.

The Folksy Turkey Endorses Florida Man!

Defeating Mike Rogers will be satisfying.

It's official.

Yearly Wrap Up.

Vote for Abdul El-Sayed.

Rep. Haley Stevens (I-MI) renounced her support for Abdul El-Sayed and has officially endorsed Mike Rogers. 

The El-Sayed campaign has responded to the shocking announcement but it is expected to rally voters to defeat Rogers. 

Anger.

Stevens officially is now an independent in her final months as a lawmaker.

The feud now has become a major disruption and now Democrats must carry El-Sayed over the finish line regardless.

President Donald J. Trump, Rogers and her fiancé Jason Turkish talked to her privately and convinced her to crossover. Her tepid endorsement and late hour attempts to make El-Sayed apologize for ads that criticized Israel has finally exposed her for what she is.

A glorified self righteous bigot.

Proof positive that El-Sayed was right about Stevens and Rogers not being focused on issues facing Michigan voters. 

Stevens appeared with Rogers at a Detroit church service Sunday as intraparty tensions boiled over days before the election that could determine the balance of power on Capitol Hill.

Stevens' show of support for President Donald J. Trump's endorsed candidate in the tightly contested race comes after she was uninvited to a joint event the same day with El-Sayed, who defeated the congresswoman by a slim margin in the August primary.

Stevens has been critical of El-Sayed's comments surrounding Israel. Her fiance said last week he was voting for Rogers, claiming El-Sayed had not done enough to address concerns of the Jewish community.

"Abdul promises to get money out of politics," Stevens wrote in a statement Friday. "He can begin by getting Israel out of his explanation for everything Michigan cannot afford."

Miles away, El-Sayed appeared with a group of prominent Michigan and national Democrats at a separate church service. They are attempting to present a united front, but days of public feuding has overshadowed the effort.

Stevens was initially set to join the nominee and U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn of South Carolina at a church event. Those plans unraveled after a dispute over Israel and an outside group's campaign advertisement escalated into a public exchange of criticism between the rivals.

Debbie Dingell, the Michigan congresswoman who helped organize the planned joint appearance in hopes of bringing together Democrats in the final days before Tuesday's vote, said she asked Stevens not to attend and that Stevens told her she would abide by that.

"I'm the one who pulled it because it had become way too distracting," Dingell said a telephone interview. "This is not how I was going to spend my weekend before the election, to be perfectly frank."

"The bishop was getting upset, because this is a real church service," Dingell added.

The latest and late-stage infighting comes as Democrats look to drive turnout among Black and Jewish voters in key strongholds. El-Sayed, a former Michigan public health official, is in a tight race with Republican Mike Rogers, an ex-congressman, for the seat held by Democrat Gary Peters, who is retiring. Keeping Michigan in Democratic hands is vital to the party's effort to win a majority for the final two years of Trump's second term.

Stevens and her team have not responded to repeated requests for comment about whether she would attend the service. Late Saturday night, she released a statement saying she was glad to see El-Sayed disagree with the content of the outside ad.

"Whenever anyone tries to set us against each other, we have an obligation to stand up and fight back," Stevens wrote in a statement that ended with: "Go vote!"

Dingell and other Democrats insist the party is united behind El-Sayed, who would be the country's first Muslim senator if elected. Early voting has been underway since Oct. 24, before the latest tensions erupted. But the renewed bickering has complicated Democrats' efforts to deliver a unified closing message in crucial areas such as Detroit, where turnout could prove decisive.

"All you guys want to talk about was Abdul and Haley and it really needs to be about what the issues are that people should be voting about on Tuesday," Dingell said. She added about El-Sayed's Republican opponent: "Mike Rogers loved every minute of it."

The tensions carry particular significance in Wayne County, which includes Detroit, and neighboring Oakland County. Stevens defeated El-Sayed in both counties in the August primary, drawing support from Black and Jewish voters who are important parts of the Democratic coalition.

Tuesday and it will be over.

How did we get here?

The Democratic primary was among the most bitter this year. Each candidate accused the other of making personal attacks. Tens of millions of dollars in outside spending poured into the race, including from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee's affiliated super PAC, which backed Stevens. El-Sayed took particular offense to an outside group's ad accusing him of disrespecting women.

Although Stevens pledged after the primary to help El-Sayed however she could, the two have not appeared together publicly since a unity breakfast two days after his summer win.

Their lack of joint appearances was particularly notable as some Jewish voters and leaders continued to criticize El-Sayed over his comments about Israel, past rhetoric and campaign appearances with controversial streamer Hasan Piker.

The divisions spilled into public view again Wednesday when Stevens' fiancé told The Detroit News that he would vote for Rogers. Hours later, Stevens appeared on CNN to reaffirm her support for El-Sayed but urged his campaign to "shut out the hate and call it out."

Dingell had been working to bring them together at church alongside Clyburn, one of the nation's most prominent Black Democrats.

But on Friday, after The Associated Press reported on the planned joint appearance, Stevens released a lengthy statement calling on El-Sayed to condemn an ad by an independent left-wing group that linked U.S. support for Israel to high grocery prices.

"Abdul promises to get money out of politics," Stevens wrote. "He can begin by getting Israel out of his explanation for everything Michigan cannot afford."

El-Sayed then responded: "So while Congresswoman Stevens seems intent on relitigating a primary that ended three months ago, let's all focus on the task at hand."

He repeated Saturday evening that the ad was not made by his campaign and "I do not agree with the contents of that ad."

The three people that makes up the 10 million. Abdul El-Sayed said he is concerned about the 9,999,998 others who are struggling. He said he is not concerned about the distractions.

Michigan Democrats insist they are united

Despite the latest tensions, El-Sayed planned to move ahead with a series of church visits Sunday alongside Clyburn and other prominent Black Democrats.

The appearances will also include U.S. Sen. Angela Alsobrooks of Maryland, Detroit Mayor Mary Sheffield, Garlin Gilchrist II, the nominee for secretary of state, and several Michigan bishops, according to campaign advisories obtained by AP.

Democrats are seeking to drive turnout in Detroit, where roughly three-quarters of residents are Black and strong support is essential to Democratic success statewide.

"United we stand, divided we fall," Dingell said.

At another church in Detroit, the junk food media was pressing him. He quickly shot at any questions involving them. He was subliminal. He said let them flame out.

"I have a sense that you all are here today because of the decisions of somebody who's not here right now. I'm just going to tell you, this is a state of 10 million people who deserve a lot better from their government. I'm a lot more focused on the 9,999,998 that are not the ones you guys are talking about," said El-Sayed.

I'm not in the business of driving clicks for you. I'm in the business of trying to solve problems for the people of my state", he added.

The Northern Blights!

On the ropes, Dan Sullivan and President Donald J. Trump will fight the results if Mary Peltola or Dan Sullivan, Jr. wins.

Former Democratic lawmaker is prime target for President Donald J. Trump and his allies if she wins an uphill race to win the Great North.

Mary Peltola, the former U.S. House member is close to an upset win against Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK). In the state of Alaska, they have rank choice voting where the top candidates will end up in a run off if the two do not achieve 50.9% of the vote.

Peltola, the first indigenous lawmaker who is Inuit. She is a widow who lost her husband in 2023 after a plane crash. She lost to Rep. Nick Begich III (R-AK) in 2024.

Sullivan is running against Peltola and two other candidates. The other candidates are Republican Gearld Heikes and Dan Sullivan, Jr. 

The Republicans are angry that Dan Sullivan, Jr. is on the ballot and it could "confuse" Alaskans into voting against Sen. Sullivan.

President Donald J. Trump has the U.S. Department of Justice and its incompetent Attorney General Todd Blanche are preparing an investigation into Peltola.

Daniel James Sullivan and Daniel Scott Sullivan are unrelated to each other, and are unrelated to former Anchorage mayor Daniel Albert Sullivan.

In an interview with the Petersburg Pilot, Sullivan stated that he had been considering running against the incumbent U.S. senator for 12 years, and remarked that he finally decided to run after the Senator's lack of opposition to the Anti-Weaponization Fund. Senator Sullivan said this was "an effort to confuse Alaskans" and "dirty politics" by Democrats, calling Dan J. Sullivan a "sham candidate". This was denied by Dan J. Sullivan, who called himself a "pragmatic Republican centrist". It was also denied by Mary Peltola's campaign, the Alaska Democratic Party, and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Senator Sullivan threatened legal action if the Lieutenant Governor of Alaska did not remove Dan J. Sullivan from the ballot.

Mary Peltola's return could happen. Will the return mean continued support for Israel despite frustrations from her Democratic supporters?

Dan J. Sullivan grew up in the Chicago metropolitan area, and has lived in Southeast Alaska since 1980. He worked for the United States Forest Service in his early career before beginning a career as an elementary school teacher.

Sullivan taught in elementary schools for over 20 years before retiring. He was appointed to the city of Petersburg's Public Safety Advisory Board in December 2021. He served in that position until October 2022. 

He stated that he was a member of the Alaskan Independence Party from when he moved to Alaska in 1980 until the party's dissolution in late 2025.

Sullivan's initial campaign announcement stated that he was "focused on unseating the incumbent, putting Alaska first, and restoring accountability, common sense, and public service to Washington, D.C." 

He later described his political philosophy as "a pragmatic Republican centrist" similar to Lisa Murkowski, with influence from Rand Paul. Incumbent U.S. Senator Daniel Scott Sullivan argued in an early June 2026 interview with CNN that "[Daniel James Sullivan's] whole purpose of running is to confuse Alaskans, to make him, make them think – Alaskan voters – that somehow he's me, so they could rig the vote in favor of Mary Peltola." 

An analysis of Federal Election Commission records by KTUU-TV showed that he had donated to Peltola's previous campaigns, including $100 in 2022 and $30 in 2024. KTUU reported that "That financial history is the extent of the documented link between the Petersburg Sullivan and the Peltola campaign." 

His initial press release and website design were supported by political strategist Amber Lee, who has previously worked with Democratic campaigns in Alaska. Lee has publicly spoken in favor of Peltola's candidacy, including in a January 2026 interview with The Hill.

The Wall Street Journal reported that weeks before the election, polls showed that approximately one third of voters likely to vote in the primary election could not distinguish the two candidates. Dan J. Sullivan's candidacy was the subject of legal debate, which as of June 27, 2026 advanced to the Alaska Supreme Court. In its initial response to Sullivan's candidacy filing, the Alaska Division of Elections stated that Sullivan's name would appear on the ballot as "Sullivan, Dan J. (Registered Republican)."

An Alaskan election official ordered Sullivan's name removed from the ballot, as his candidacy "was not filed in order to declare an actual good-faith candidacy for the office of United States Senator, but was instead filed with a purpose to confuse or mislead and to thereby compromise the ballot's fairness or neutrality", a decision he appealed.

Anchorage Superior Court judge Thomas A. Matthews reversed the Division of Elections' decision to exclude Sullivan from the primary ballot on June 26. Matthews' decision ruled that the "good-faith" standard for ballot access was not supported by Alaska law, the Division of Elections' regulations, or Article One, Section 3 of the United States Constitution. 

On July 2 the Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the decision, ordering Sullivan's name to be listed on the August 18th primary ballot. The Division of Elections released a sample ballot that will distinguish between the two Sullivans by listing Dan J. Sullivan as "Sullivan, Daniel J. Jr." and no party affiliation (despite Sullivan filing as a Republican) and identifying Dan S. Sullivan as the incumbent, which the DoE had not done for any other incumbent for at least 10 years.

Trump without evidence claimed Peltola who lives in remote Bethel, Alaska managed to convince Sullivan, Jr. who lives in remote Petersburg to run. The conspiracy claims intensified following an October 2026 report by The New York Times. The report alleged that in 2025, top aides for Mary Peltola’s campaign instructed a staffer to comb through Alaska voter records specifically to find anyone named "Dan Sullivan" who could be persuaded to run.

Peltola has publicly stated that she "knew nothing about" the second Sullivan and emphasized to her supporters that she is "not interested in tricking voters."

Sullivan Jr. has maintained in interviews that he decided to run entirely of his own volition because he was dissatisfied with the performance of the incumbent senator. He has denied any knowledge of or involvement in an organized plot.

If one of them wins, Trump vows to push for them not to be seated.

Anyway, vote in Alaska for Mary Peltola. I am not keen on her like in the earlier rise. She is a continuation of the pro Israel Democrats and independent lawmakers despite it going against her Inuit heritage and their fights against colonialism.
