Abdul El-Sayed slams Mike Rogers for using Islamophobia to attack him, says Michiganders deserve real solutions Host: “Can you set the record straight about whether you or your family have any ties to the Muslim Brotherhood?” Abdul El-Sayed: “The only reason he said those things is because he really wanted to repeat the word Muslim you should suspect people simply because they are different than you in how they pray he has no ideas, he doesn't actually care about solving problems…he cares about power i want to talk about gas prices…i want to talk about grocery prices…i want to talk about seeing a doctor it’s not going to work…Michiganders are too big for that.”

THEO VON: “How do you feel about WNBA players walking out during the national anthem, or do you have any thoughts on it?” SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM: “I mean, you know who you’re talking to? OF COURSE, I have thoughts on it.” Cunningham stopped short of bashing her fellow players but made it clear she’s proud to be American and will always show love to U.S. troops. Theo Von questioned why WNBA players earning an average of $518,000 a year couldn’t show gratitude to the country that helped make their dreams possible. The debate raises a bigger question: can athletes demand respect while disagreeing over what showing respect for their country should look like? x.com/VigilantFox/status/211…

Jerry Seinfeld reveals his four favorite Seinfeld episodes of all time. Jerry Seinfeld: “Okay, my four, not in chronological order. And I actually gave this a little thought.” Host: “Wow. Did you do a little work? What thoughts did you give it?” Jerry Seinfeld: “I gave it some thought.” Host: “Did you watch any?” Jerry Seinfeld: “No, I don’t need to watch it. I did them. I was there.” “The Contest. The Soup Nazi. The Merv Griffin Show, because I love that premise. And the Marine Biologist.” Host: “Wow. Do you want to go over how those came to be?” Jerry Seinfeld: “The Contest doesn’t require an explanation. The Soup Nazi doesn’t either. Just the idea of the word ‘Nazi’ in the episode, it’s a Jewish show. It was just such a great, fun thing to do.” “The Marine Biologist, that was the best story tie-in finish to an episode we ever did. Jason’s speech at the end makes that.” Larry David: “Yeah, that’s true.” Jerry Seinfeld: “And the Merv Griffin Show, because Kramer finds the Merv Griffin set in a dumpster and sets it up in his apartment. So just based on that one sentence, enough said.” “They’re all high-concept shows.” “I toyed with The Boyfriend and The Merv Griffin Show. I kind of went back and forth because I really liked The Boyfriend.” Host: “Yo, that’s a penalty. You can’t mention the fifth one. You can only say what you said.” Jerry Seinfeld: “I’m just conversing. It’s a podcast.”

Ben Affleck Clashes With Bill Maher and Sam Harris Over Islamophobia, Racism, and Criticism of Islamic Beliefs Sam Harris argued that liberals have failed by allowing the term “Islamophobia” to blur the distinction between criticizing Islamic doctrines and showing prejudice against Muslims. Ben Affleck challenged Harris, questioning whether he could claim to be the definitive authority on Islam. Harris defended his position, saying he was well educated on the subject and that people should be free to criticize harmful ideas. Maher then called the criticism racist and gross, prompting Affleck to argue that the discussion was contradicting the very liberal principles of free speech and equality it claimed to defend. When Harris described Islamism as the “motherlode of bad ideas,” Affleck pushed back, pointing out that more than a billion Muslims are not fanatics or abusers but ordinary people simply trying to live their lives. Maher and Harris rejected his argument, insisting that it was untrue to suggest that Muslims broadly did not hold the beliefs they were criticizing. x.com/virelle_x/status/21145…

Bill Maher and Sam Harris Challenge Michael Steele’s Views on Criticism of Islam and Religious Extremism Bill Maher: People are afraid to criticize or satirize Islam because they could face violent retaliation. “It’s the only religion that acts like the mafia — that will fucking kill you if you say the wrong thing, draw the wrong picture, or write the wrong book.” Sam Harris: “We have to be able to criticize bad ideas.” Michael Steele: Muslim voices are speaking out against extremism, but their side of the story often gets overlooked. Sam Harris: The concern, he argues, is that extreme religious beliefs may be more widespread than people assume. Michael Steele: “You do have that element of fear as well, but you also have other braver souls out there who do speak out… publicly put their names on paper, declaring their opposition to what ISIS and others are doing. So there are those voices, but where was the coverage?” Bill Maher: “I can show you a poll of Egyptians. They are not outliers in the Muslim world. Let's say like 90% of them believe death is the appropriate response to leaving the religion. If 90% of Brazilians thought that death was the appropriate response to leaving Catholicism, you would think it was a bigger deal.” Michael Steele: “I would think it's a big deal”

Bret Baier Presses Abdul El-Sayed on Mike Rogers’ Muslim Brotherhood Claims — El-Sayed Fires Back Bret Baier: “Mike Rogers has been really hitting this Muslim Brotherhood thing. I know you don't want to talk about your family and the history there Abdul El-Sayed: “Let me just stop there. Let me just stop there. No, no. You are asking this question to raise a question about whether or not I have dual loyalty.” Bret Baier: “This is specific. His campaign cites a 2012 statement of the United States.” Abdul El-Sayed: “I have never been a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. I never will be a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. I am interested in serving the United States. I am interested in swearing an oath to the Constitution that every senator has sworn an oath to.” Abdul El-Sayed: “If the question about my faith is the issue which Mike Rogers wants it to be I think it is sad and beneath him, and frankly beneath the President of the United States, to make that an issue. Because under our Constitution, you're guaranteed the right to pray as you choose to pray.”

Trevor Noah explains why he thinks Thanos was actually the good guy in Avengers Trevor Noah: “Thanos was actually the good guy in the movie.” Devin: “Good guy? You think so, too?” Trevor Noah: “It’s just that we’re not told the story from his perspective, so immediately we’re biased against him we think of Thanos as being bad because he’s not traditionally good looking. He doesn’t have pretty privilege.” Eugene: “The Avengers are an entitled bunch.” Trevor Noah: “Go around breaking shit, never fixing things these things could have been building low-cost housing. These things could have been out there helping people in floods.” Eugene: “You could have told us this at the beginning.” Devin: “I don’t think that makes Thanos the good guy. I think the Avengers are bad or morally complicated.” Trevor Noah: “So why isn’t he morally complicated? Why is he the bad guy?”

Ben Shapiro Invokes Slavery and the Holocaust in a Heated Debate Over Abortion Ben Shapiro: “So, if there was an entire population in Europe that was considered subhuman by the Nazis and they were exterminated, if you said, ‘I am personally against the extermination of the Jews, but I understand why Germans could think the Jews are subhuman. it is up to each individual to determine whether a Jew is human or not fully human and can be put in the back of a van and gassed,’ we'd be like, What in the world?” DJ Envy: “You're saying there should be no pro-choice in regards to that.” Ben Shapiro: “Yeah. So definitions are not a matter of choice. Definitions are a matter of actual objective fact.” Charlamagne Tha God: “I don't think you can compare those two things.” Ben Shapiro: “Why?” Charlamagne Tha God: He argues that forcing a woman to carry a pregnancy after rape is fundamentally different from a slave master's decision to enslave another person. DJ Envy: “It's almost like you force a woman twice, right? Because she says no, do I become a slave master not versus do I have a baby or not? It's like she has this baby and now she's forced to have it. Let's try the Jewish analogy.” Ben Shapiro: “What I'm saying is that the reason that slavery was wrong is because black people are fully independent human beings who require the protection of the law in the same way as everyone else. "And if you're pro-life, you believe that's also true of the unborn.”

We run this shit.” Fat Joe: “My brother's the treasury. My other brother has all the aluminum. We run this shit. You know, we're Putin's crew.” “I was like, ‘Oh shit.’”

Abdul El-Sayed Pressed on Whether He’ll Support Terrorist Designations for Muslim Brotherhood Groups Martha MacCallum: “So, if you become a U.S. senator, will you support those terrorist designations of those groups in order to support U.S. national security?” Abdul El-Sayed: “I think terrorism is the act of political violence, so I will support a terror designation for any organization that is engaged in or committed to political violence.” Martha MacCallum: “Do you support the designations of the Muslim Brotherhood in those countries?” Abdul El-Sayed: “I want to understand—show me that they're engaged. Any organization that is engaged in political violence, I will back a terrorist designation.” Martha MacCallum: “So, on October 7th, the Egyptian chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood called for violent attacks against the United States, its partners, and interests. The Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood supported Hamas and they threatened Americans living in the region and our partners. So, do you stand by those designations?” Abdul El-Sayed: “As I said, any organization engaged in political violence or calling for political violence is engaged in terrorism, and I would support those designations.”

I'm genuinely curious: how should Americans compare the security of Social Security with the potential returns of private investing? I checked my Social Security statement this morning. After decades of working, my estimated retirement benefit is about $2,400 a month. That's $28,800 a year before considering any taxes that may apply. I've paid Social Security taxes throughout my career, and my employers have contributed too. I know Social Security isn't an individual savings account. It helps support retirees, disabled workers, and eligible family members, and today's payroll taxes largely fund today's beneficiaries. But I still wonder what my retirement would look like if I had been able to invest more of that money privately. Would I have accumulated more wealth? Would I have been exposed to more risk? Would I have been better off, or would I have lost everything in a bad market?
