Description: Subscribe to our new YouTube channel for our massive fact check on socialist superstar Francesca Hong:  @TonyKinnettCast  Tonight on The Tony Kinnett Cast — live at 7PM ET on The Daily Signal's YouTube channel. Abdul El-Sayed squeaked out a win in Michigan's Democratic Senate primary by roughly 15,000 votes out of 1.5 million cast — a one-point margin that Republicans are already calling the best possible outcome heading into November. But it wasn't a clean night for the socialist wave: Shri Thanedar and Cori Bush both went down, the latter in a landslide. Meanwhile, both parties are already measuring the drapes for a midterm win that's nowhere near decided, and Iran is warning that any new U.S. strikes will set off a war "beyond the region." TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN: - Abdul El-Sayed narrowly wins Michigan's Democratic Senate primary by about a one-point margin, setting up a must-win November fight against Republican Mike Rogers for control of the Senate - Not all socialists survived the night — Shri Thanedar loses to democratic socialist Donavan McKinney, while former "Squad" member Cori Bush suffers a landslide defeat to AIPAC-backed Rep. Wesley Bell in Missouri - Both parties get dangerously overconfident about the midterms, with Democrats and Republicans alike declaring premature victory laps five states and three months too early - Iran warns that any resumed U.S. strikes will unleash a war that extends "beyond the region" — so what actually happens next? The Tony Kinnett Cast is The Daily Signal's nightly flagship show, hosted by national correspondent Tony Kinnett — covering the day's biggest stories with analysis, commentary, and guests from across the political and media landscape.
