Another GOP effort to undermine voter registration and promote misinformation, conveniently timed for this election cycle:

CNN owes you an apology today,â Bannon told Leavitt. âAnd if we donât get that apology to Karoline Leavitt, and to the Trump campaign today, and to MAGA, President Trump should cancel this [debate].â
This is where i suspect we wind up. He tries to provoke, or invent, some outrage and flounces in a huff, of course claiming victory all the way. But i guess we shall see.

Iâm in the NY television market, and Bowmanâs loss doesnât surprise me. His opponent has been running tons of ads for weeks now painting Bowman as incompetent, a friend of cop killers, and just about any other awful thing you can think of, and each ad always included a clip of him pulling that fire alarm. I saw one ad for Bowman, and that ran yesterday. There was a lot of money, and a lot of old guard Democratic muscle behind Latimer.

Apparently- tons of AIPAC money. Which was used to attack him in issues unrelated to the war.
â AIPAC sees support for Israel as bipartisan, and its donors come from both parties. But its practice of sending money from GOP donors into Democratic races has enraged progressives.â

Yeah, the big one I saw was something about him putting a âcop killerâ on the wall of the school he was a principal of or something. I donât know all the details, but he was putting pictures of important civil rights figures on a wall in the school, and one of them was Assata Shakur. I donât know much about her, and her murder conviction happened when I was 8 and living in Texas, so I donât know anything about the whole situation, but according to Wikipedia, there are a lot of questions about her conviction. It seems like she got railroaded. She also later escaped and has never been found. But yeah, AIPAC was hammering that in their ads. Constantly. They all but called Bowman himself a cop killer.

Yeah, she did. This was absolutely common for Black Panther connected figures. Not all of them got convicted, but many did.

So I know that the media and voters have limited bandwidth, especially with the presidential election heating up and Trumpâs tendency to suck up all the attention (not to mention a couple of nasty wars going on) but I was just thinking about how remarkable it is that the ongoing trial of Senator Menendez for massive corruption and acting as a foreign agent has hardly penetrated the news at all lately. Itâs been weeks since I heard anything about it on the radio, and I didnât see anything online unless I specifically searched for stories. Maybe reporting is a bit different over on the East coast? Or is this being ignored everywhere?
