Turner can't compete with two remarkable souls. Establishment my ass. She would be unable to hold a candle to them.

Nina Turner is awful! I’m ashamed to have her in our party after the way she constantly attacked Hillary and other democrats.

Not me.

Hatch act says she can't.

We already saw her arm around Shontell, that is all we need.

It's an endorsement by-proxy... and a reminder of who it is that Marcia Fudge supports and endorses (even though she can't say so out loud.)

It's a great ad! I love it.

and a "true Democrat" and so on.

The ridiculous myth that FDR/LBJ were anti-capitalist democratic socialists, but from the '70s the Democratic Party shifted to the right to have the same economic politics as Republicans (neoliberal) and must be replaced by a movement or revolution. Nina: "Slay the Neofascist. Slay the Neoliberal. ... So yeah, this is Revolution time."

27. Brown is widely viewed as a leading candidate in the Cleveland-area race

This makes me smile




The Jewish Democratic Council of America is endorsing Shontel Brown, a Cuyahoga County councilwoman and party chair, in the crowded and increasingly contentious Democratic primary to represent Ohio’s 11th Congressional District, Jewish Insider has learned.

“JDCA is proud to endorse Shontel Brown in the OH-11 primary because she shares our Jewish and Democratic values on a wide range of issues, including access to affordable, quality health care, ensuring jobs that pay fair wages, supporting public education, taking action to end gun violence, protecting our democracy, and ensuring equity and justice for all,” Halie Soifer, JDCA’s CEO, said in a statement to JI.

Since announcing her bid in December, Brown has emerged as the pro-Israel favorite in the race, which is scheduled for August 3. Early in-person voting begins on July 7.

In recent months, Brown has notched endorsements from Democratic Majority for Israel as well as Pro-Israel America, and earlier this week, four pro-Israel House Democrats — including Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ), Ted Deutch (D-FL), David Trone (D-MD) and Brad Schneider (D-IL) — announced their support for the congressional hopeful.

Brown is widely viewed as a leading candidate in the Cleveland-area race to succeed former Rep. Marcia Fudge (D-OH), who vacated the seat in March for a cabinet position as housing and urban development secretary in the Biden administration
