How many Trump defenders would support dropping the voting age to 14?

“I Lost Everything”: Venezuelans Were Rounded Up in a Dramatic Midnight Raid but Never Charged With a Crime Authorities said Tren de Aragua “terrorists” had taken over the building. A ProPublica investigation found little evidence to back up the government’s claims. For the first time, the Venezuelans arres...

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..."

Prosecutors have not filed a *single* criminal charge against anyone arrested that night:

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Trump Administration to Drastically Cut Housing Grants

This is far worse than anyone expected.

Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.

All as mass internment camps are being built.

People should be allowed to have a THC seltzer if they want to

It’s time for Dems to quit taking AIPAC money, Cory. Then we can talk. You can’t have it both ways.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

if you genuinely think Schumer and Democratic leadership opposed this & Republicans coincidentally got exactly the number of votes they needed to avoid a filibuster and none of those votes are from Democratic Senators who are up for reelection in the midterms next year, I have a bridge to sell you.

To repeat: I have studied a lot of cases of autocratization over the past 15 years. Wrote about them, taught about them, consulting about them.

I do not recall an opposition so apathetic, ignorant, and inept as the @democrats.org. They cling to their power, rather than fight for democracy. Shame.

I'm so tired of local and House Dems doing progressive work only to have a group of establishment Sens. piss all over it. They're not just useless, they're actively detrimental.

The right cannot be "fixed." It must be defeated. The same is true of Dems like Schumer. They cannot be cajoled into serving a better set of interests. They are constitutionally incapable, and what's more, they don't want to. We aren't part of their priority set.

Trump: I'm dismantling the Constitution, building a paramilitary fascist army loyal only to me, demolishing the White House, and blowing up the US economy for my billionaire cronies

Schumer: Okay, but you have to extend subsidies for corporate health care

Trump: No

Schumer: Okay

Tuesday’s elections were NOT about the Democratic Party.

They were about candidates focusing on the wants and needs of their constituents; about new leaders prepared to fight; about representation in every sense of the word.

Party leaders haven’t absorbed this yet.

LESS. THAN. A. WEEK.

Took them less than a week to take one of the most visible public repudiations of the GOP in my lifetime and turn it into hog slop.

I’m so mad my temperature is higher than my ACA premiums.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

Resign. You are a worthless “leader”. Don’t you dare patronize us. We’re not stupid, Chuck. This on you.

These 8 Senators sold us out to Trump:
Hassan
King
Cortez-Masto
Shaheen
Kaine
Fetterman
Durbin
Rosen

Understand This Fact: Chuck Schumer is behind this. None of these 8 are up for reelection in 2026. Schumer asked them vote yes—they agreed. He's such a coward that he folded and won't even own it.

It’s almost like oh gosh, it was intentional. Like it’s a sham government where Dems only exist to keep the populace (barely) in check and paying their taxes. Hmm.

It was nice to feel positive about political currents for *checks notes* a little less than 5 days

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Just imagining the meeting where they must have been like “they might cancel my flight? Time to kill the sick.”

The Democrats who caved just taught Republicans that using mass starvation as a weapon works.

The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands The short documentary “Rovina’s Choice” tells the story of what goes when aid goes.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Real talk. If your ass is still on board with the walkin' circus peanut you lost your damn mind.

What’s infuriating to me as someone who has identified as a Democrat literally longer than Spanberger has been alive is that many of the policies Mamdani supports would have comfortably fit within the Democratic Party tent before Reaganism.

Neoliberalism should NOT be the default for Democrats.

I mean, he could deport her at his whim (even though she’s American born) and take full custody of the kids. Who’s gonna stop him? Look at Elon’s example. I firmly believe she’s living with a full on narcissist. She looks like a hostage, tired and afraid. I think she lives under threat.

The fact that Republicans get upset about tearing down confederate monuments, but not demolishing the White House, says a lot.
