You know why they didn't stand with Al Green? Because you need a spine to stand. We need you to run for POTUS. I don't think Dems are going to learn their lesson by 2028. #NoKings

It isnβt jarring anymore. Not at all.
"Long live the king" is the most un-American thing a President of the United States could ever say about themselves. Wasn't this little experiment started because we reject kings? Asking for a friend... #NoKings

Given this was (1) a ploy by elected officials with stock in Meta to make millions and (2) an attempt to artificially inflate the popularity of Trump, I doubt they care. Each and every elected official that voted for the ban while owning stock in a competitor should be charged under the STOCK Act.
19.01.2025 18:31 β π 28 π 1 π¬ 3 π 0We need a party leader more concerned about winning elections and getting good work done that meaningless virtue signaling that does absolutely nothing to lift up the communities we claim to care about. We need someone that is ready for a new era of competence.
08.01.2025 13:15 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0We need a party leader who will be honest and will break the mold. We need a party that believes a 50-state strategy isn't enough, one that pushes for a real EVERY COUNTY strategy.

08.01.2025 13:15 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The "blue wall" in MI, WI, and PA tumbled over because of those people. And now, the remaining blue wall in the northeast is eroding and showing big cracks; just look at the numbers Harris received. The DNC consultants and arrogant staffers that have clawed their way to the top are at fault.
08.01.2025 13:15 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Many of the scammers and frauds are within the "authorized" party circles. The party has become incompetent and completely out of touch. Their consultants and over-paid staffers are who stabbed Hillary Clinton in the back in 2016, relying on bad data and telling dissenting staff to shut up.

Yes, there are several PACs that fall squarely into the category of scam, but O'Malley is failing to be honest about the real problem.

Another example is the Maine Democratic Party, who declined to help ANY of its candidates this cycle.

08.01.2025 13:15 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I've become incredibly disappointed with the Democratic Party. They failed Kamala Harris and now several high-profile Democrats have endorsed Ben Winkler of WI for DNC Chair, a guy who failed to deliver his state for Mandela Barnes in 2022 and Kamala Harris in 2024.
