Happy Levy out day 🥳

Don’t sleep on Louisiana! I’ll be moderating this peek under the hood of our historic, 30pt defeat of 4 far-right constitutional amendments. Come hear how we did it and the blueprint it offers for beating back MAGA everywhere! #NN25

“There are no magic words. You just tell the stories that people tell you”

— @ag.state.mn.us reminding us that narrative strategy is not about crafting messaging, it’s about synthesizing and finding the meaning in real life. #NN25

the reaction to Mamdani's campaign is clear proof that centrism is a reactionary ideology, and has nothing to do with a pragmatic desire to win.

Here is Mahmoud, addressing the media outside.

The democratic impulse to try to co-opt or neuter the left flank rather than use the political cover it provides to articulate a policy alternative

Meanwhile Daniel Levy absolutely certain that season 25 of him in charge is the charm

Boooooo. I am so tired of this shit.

#OPINION As voters head to the polls today to vote on four constitutional amendments, some Lens contributors – two schoolteachers and a college education professor – advise a NO vote on Amendment 2.

Yeah, I think dark humor has become the reflexive response of millennials and Gen Z and I worry that it usually is a way to defuse the fear and anger that are critical motivators of action. We all need to cope but sometimes bad feeling need to be sat with.

Don’t accept the framing that it’s about efficiency. That’s so basic. Y’all need someone with more comms savvy in charge of this account. You’re the opposition party ffs…

👀

What is it going to take to get Dems to stop segmenting the electorate and treating everyone as single issue voters? As if all (93% non-union) workers care about is unions or all Latinx voters care about is immigration, Black voters CJR, women abortion etc. etc. etc. *screams into the void*

Y’all gotta do better than this tweet

Y’all, they’re trying to pull a fast one.

LA lawmakers are using smoke & mirrors to pass 4 amendments, thinking we won’t notice.

❌Kangaroo Courts
❌Gut education & transit funding
❌Kids in adult prisons
❌Rigging judicial elections

March 29, say #NoToThemAllYall 🗳️

Perhaps we need an even more raging Cajun

Absolutely brutal ratio

Shysters, all of them

I really wish the Left would invest in winning back seats in red states. So many Dem leaders are sweet summer children from blue states who have never had to ditch the condescension and try to win over voters. Win a seat in Louisiana or Mississippi on a progressive platform and you’ll know better

Truly why are people so intent on lionizing Dog the Bounty Hunter?

I am BEGGING Democrats not to “talk more about the price of eggs” but to tell an affirmative story about the role they will make government play in a more just and equitable society

Opinion | Sheriffs are right to stand up against demands that they do ICE’s dirty work The Trump administration has a problem: Local jurisdictions have the legal discretion to make their own decisions on immigration enforcement.

The Trump Admin needs sheriffs for mass deportations, but sheriffs have the legal discretion to decide on immigration enforcement.

@nipnlg.bsky.social's Sirine Shebaya & Sheriff Accountability Action's Max Rose say sheriffs are right to oppose ICE collaboration:

This city's government is a wholly captured enforcement arm of its tourism and real estate ownership class. In everything it does, from hosting events, to planning land use, to budgeting city services, residents are a nuisance to be moved out of the way of profit

Listen, the brand activation only needs so many extras!

Graeme Crews walking this back and say she just joined a meeting is so embarrassing. Why would you be more concerned about your MOC coming off as rude than coming as feckless at this moment?

I think we’re so used to so much noise that the constitutional and global orders break down in the space of 2 weeks and it’s hard to even hear the alarm bells

WHY IS ANYONE STILL ASKING THEM??

So Jeff Landry is taking bold and decisive action to stop the influx of… undocumented doctors coming to Louisiana to heal the sick?

I’m worried the Right is going to crush the Left while we’re doing an icebreaker
