The Left needs to attack the mainstream press the way Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin used to do. They need to be shown no mercy.

She will have to use FDR’s 1936 speech at MSG as a blueprint to go head on at corporate America and the media.

I’m so happy that most on the left don’t even pay attention to the mainstream media other than to attack them nowadays. We need to be blatantly partisan and not even entertain the unenlightened β€œcentrist” position.

Exactly. We need an opposition that goes straight at the throat of the GOP. Every Republican politician is an affront to civilization. AOC is one of the few people that can do that. We should not even be entertaining idiots who nitpick her foreign policy.

Aaron MatΓ©, Glenn Greenwald, and Brihana Joy Gray saying in 2027 they want 9 Samuel Alitos on the court because something something Ukraine.

A thing that annoys me about the Axios newsletter is that the tone is consistently β€œI am one of the top experts on this thing I learned about five minutes ago.” Also that they have 280 sources in the White House but their only source on the left is Rep. Capitulate Middle (D).

He intentionally plays dumb and doesn't understand people. Good on you for holding him accountable.

And even if they gut the voting rights act they can really only pick up a few seats in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina. The Republican Party is not that popular. Without Trump their bench is horrible.

There are fundamentally two Americas: the Union and the Confederacy. Our current struggle is about which we choose to be.

Bush stealing the election and 9/11 happening was the one-two punch that really fucked up this whole century. Trying to come to terms with the fact that my life peaked when I was 10.

I think it is mostly the GenX Leftists and Anti-Anti-Trumpers like Glenn Greenwald and The Grayzone dipshits who think any foreign intervention is always bad.

They just don't have the manpower or legal mechanism to take over the elections. Doomerism over the midterms is one opinion I don't want to hear.

I'm happy the most about the post-GenX unenlightened centrist Left is that we are becoming much more partisan. Both sidseism of the neoliberal era has been such a plague on our society.

The names Derek Thompson, Thomas Chatterton Williams, and Ezra Klein need to be erased from the public discourse.

One of my biggest gripes about our discourse is that centrist idiots are always conditioning Americans on immigration from the Fox News extended universe starting point.

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

The Supreme Court really dropped the ball on that whole nationwide injunctions thing. That really screwed over the poor souls working for Pam Bondi.

Chris Hayes is the only show on MSNBC that I watch. He has the best opening segments of any host on cable.

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.

Republicans haven't had a legislative agenda since 1908 and Democrats still pretend like they are an actual political party.

Breaking Points is such a strange program. They will have Emily Faschinsky on and act like she is a reasonable Conservative. Then at night she will go on Megyn Kelly where she lets her freak flag fly.
