LIVE From Francesca Hong Election Watch Party | WI Democratic Primary Results

Reopening Strait of Hormuz is a humanitarian imperative
It is worth recalling that the conflict did not begin over disputes about the Strait of Hormuz. As recently as February 28, commercial ships transited the waterway without restriction.
(…)
With the US maintaining the naval blockade during the ceasefire period, Iran responded by stopping and, in several cases, attacking vessels attempting to cross the Strait without its approval. Insurance rates spiked, shipping lines rerouted around the Cape of Good Hope, and transit times increased by up to three weeks.
Wars of this nature benefit no party in the long term, and they rarely reach a logical conclusion. Their primary victims are innocent civilians who have no role in the conflict. Many civilians in Iran and Lebanon have lost their lives directly to strikes.
Inside the growing rift between Iran’s dealmakers and ultraconservatives
It was in this climate that a leaked video of Mohammad-Bagher Kharrazi, the brother-in-law of Masoud Khamenei, the younger brother of Iran’s supreme leader, emerged as part of what critics describe as a broader hard-line campaign.
In the video, Kharrazi claimed that Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei had “formally and publicly announced” that if Pezeshkian attempts to resign one more time, his resignation would be accepted.
(…)
Soon afterward, however, another audio file surfaced in which Ali Saeedi, a conservative senior figure close to the Khamenei‘s office, claimed that the supreme leader had expressed support for the negotiations and criticised hard-line opposition to diplomacy.
According to Saeedi, Khamenei told one of his brothers: “I have never opposed negotiations, and I still do not. I was the one who authorised the negotiations, and I am not satisfied with the hard-line positions adopted by some people.”
Saeedi also claimed that Khamenei supports Ghalibaf, saying: “He is like [the late Quds Force commander] Haj Qassem Soleimani.”
Peggy Flanagan fpr U.S. Senate
Now, Peggy is running for Senate to stop Donald Trump and the billionaires ransacking our government from making it harder for families, like the one she grew up in, to have a fair shot. At a time when Washington is more rigged than ever, Peggy will be a Senator who has the guts to take on our toughest fights and win for Minnesota families.
Peggy lives in her hometown of St. Louis Park with her husband, Tom, and her daughter, Siobhan. She is a proud graduate of the University of Minnesota.
Progressive vs. moderate showdown for Senate seat tops Minnesota primaries
Another Midwestern moderate versus progressive showdown will play out Tuesday in Minnesota, where Rep. Angie Craig and Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan are competing to replace Sen. Tina Smith.
Flanagan has the backing of national progressives like Sen. Bernie Sanders. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Smith, who is retiring.
Craig has the backing of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and top local leaders like Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey.
Francesca Hong for Governor
State Representative.
Single Mom. Restaurant Worker. Chef.
Progressives could score a huge Wisconsin win Tuesday. Some national figures don’t want to touch it.
And other leaders say they aren’t familiar with who she is, underscoring the work Hong has ahead of her if she wins Tuesday.
“I don’t know her,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said in a brief hallway interview.
Sanders has said he would not endorse Hong and declined to comment when asked by POLITICO about the race last Friday on Capitol Hill.

Wahlwerbespot: Die Partei die es nicht gibt
(February 9, 2025)
Wie sieht‘s denn aus mit dem, worüber keiner mehr reden will – mit dem Geld?
Wer hat acht Billionen Euro Geldvermögen der „Privaten Haushalte“?
Du vielleicht?
Dein Nachbar?
Deine Freundin?
Deine Chefin?
Wirklich?
Wie sieht es mit den weiteren acht Billionen Euro Geldvermögen aus, von den „nichtfinanziellen Kapitalgesellschaften“, den Aktiengesellschaften?
Schon mal etwas davon gehört?
Wurde Dir schon mal ein Kaffee ausgegeben davon?
Wo ist das alles? Wo geht das alles hin?
Und wer hat das verdient…?
Wie merkwürdig, dass von allen Leuten, die sich heutzutage links nennen, keiner mehr über das System des Geldes, oder wie man früher sagte, Vorsicht – (umguck) – KAPITALISMUS redet.
Ist das eine Art kosmisches Gesetz? Eine Art Europhilie? Eine wie auch immer geartete Vergesslichkeit der Genösschen?
Oder ist der Kapitalismus heutzutage ganz besonders unantastbar – weil das prokontinental ist?
Weil man damit andere Völker auch so prima erpressen kann, zum Verkauf ihres Staatseigentums, ihrer Infrastruktur, um sie dann bis auf‘s Blut auszupressen, bis über den Hauptstädten dieses Kontinents schon der Rauch aufsteigt?
„Gemach, Gemach“, „um Himmels Willen“, werden jetzt viele rufen und sagen: „D-Mark! D-Mark!“
Versuchen wir es mal mit einem aus fünf Wörtern der deutschen Sprache bestehenden Satz…
Achtung:
Ein neues Finanzsystem wäre neu. Haben wir das jetzt alle verstanden?
