These people are going fuckin nuts partying over a guy who campaigned on affordable housing, and subsidized childcare and busses. Like c’mon man. There is a very obvious path forward to fight the horrors. Praying the right people realize that

when republicans win: we will crush the democrats, they are the enemy within, leftists and dei and trans people will be mandated out of existence

when republicans lose: don't forget to be a leader for everyone, don't dare do anything significant against us because we'll be back

i sense a pattern.

A self-avowed socialist just got elected mayor of the biggest city in America and quoted Eugene Debs to start his acceptance speech. Do not let some loser on here convince you this isn't the biggest accomplishment the American Left has delivered in decades.

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

New statement from Chuck Schumer:

“Despite not doing anything useful, and in fact being actively harmful to the process in a number of ways, I am here to take credit for other people’s hard work and risks.”

Once more, for old times’ sake

Republicans thought they had a permanent hold over young men. They didn't.

Spanberger wins men 18-29 by 14%, Sherrill by 10%, and Mamdani by a stunning 40%.

Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

Wow it turns out the entire country is not permanently reactionary because Trump won an election by 1.5%

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

Exit polls say Abigail Spanberger won young men 56–42 today. Talk about a narrative buster.

Haha unless

This to me is the game. I don’t care if Schumer doesn’t like Mamdani, but for him to stand silently by while sex pest Cuomo leans into gutter racism and Islamophobia while accepting endorsements from Trump, Musk and Miller is outrageous from the Senate Minority Leader.

I yearn for a political party where not endorsing Mamdani while praising Dick Cheney gets you automatically booted out

I’ve voted for them both consistently but Schumer and Gillibrand primary campaigns start tomorrow

Hardest Zohran edit yet wtf

Elected Democrats spending more time today praising Dick Cheney than Zohran Mamdani is a great case study in abject fucking moral failure.

The ever-awful Nancy Pelosi on Cheney: Dick Cheney was a patriotic American who loved his country. While we strongly disagreed on most policy issues, his patriotism was clear when he returned to the House Floor to commemorate the first anniversary of January 6th. We all saw then how proud Vice President Cheney was to see his daughter, Liz, follow in her father's footsteps to serve in the House with courage and integrity. May it be a comfort to Lynne, Liz and Mary that so many are praying for them at this sad time.

Cheney should have died in The Hague, not surrounded by his loved ones, Nancy.

Look at this and then think back to how Kamala Harris responded to protestors with "I'm speaking"

how do people like this reckon with the fact that these voters last voted for you when you put barack obama in front of them masquerading as a radical lefty outsider and then a few years later voted for nazis? i guess they're not persuadable!

Touch some grass, my man

This is just weird, man.

If the Senate Dems don't realize the kind of upper hand they have against Trump in this moment - and if they let a chunk of their caucus (8 Dems) fold after get a "a promised vote" from the Republicans - not sure what else is there to say.

At least eight moderate Senate Democrats are meeting in hopes of finding a deal to end the monthlong government shutdown, but sources familiar with the closely held conversations say they will need strong assurances from the GOP before voting to reopen the government. The eight Democrats, who include Sens. Jeanne Shaheen (N.H.) and Jon Ossoff (Ga.), the latter a top Republican target in 2026, will need to feel comfortable with whatever is offered by Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.), and they may need to hear from President Trump himself, sources told The Hill.

If you're going to rely on "strong assurances" from Republicans then you're stupid and weak and you should resign.

There is only one path to getting Democratic assistance with anything: the House reopens, swears in Adelita Grijalva, then passes an acceptable budget.

New — Andrew Cuomo hung up in the middle of a radio interview today, after the hosts pressed him on Donald Trump expressing support for him

I’m coining the phrase “the centrist two-step.” Step 1 is declaring that the left needs to focus on kitchen table issues instead of social issues to win back voters and step 2 is insisting that all left-wing approaches to kitchen table issues are impossible to deliver on.

Honestly, all of these waste of life Dems are broadcasting how threatened they feel by their younger, better counterparts

A SSRS/CNN poll showing 61% people think Trump has gone too far using the power of the presidency and 57% think he's gone too far deporting immigrants.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.
