Democrats: Oh wow, universal basic income and healthcare both have supermajority support, even among independents. Should we do them? Nah. Let's appeal to conservatives in a way that doesn't win them over but also loses our own voters by pushing for minor tweaks that won't scare the Never Trumpers.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Endorses Zohran Mamdani as Top Choice for Mayor

1. This is a big boost for Adrienne Adams, who @aoc.bsky.social ranks second.

2. Sound logic: “Even if the entire left coalesced around any one candidate, an ideological coalition is still insufficient for us to win,” the congresswoman said. “We have to have a true working-class coalition.”

This is a very, very complex and exceedingly thorough process that involves extensive use of the president’s TiVo remote, so please, please, everyone, give it time

Fox News has resorted to just straight up lying about Abrego Garcia, who has never been convicted or even charged with a crime

Trump blinks on tariffs, proving what we already knew: He's a chicken | Opinion If there's one thing that's clear about President Donald Trump's consistent tariff policy, it's that he's definitely not a chicken who panicked.

Trump blinks on tariffs, proving what we already knew: He's a chicken.

"Don’t you dare say President Trump panicked. That would be too kind, frankly. Because it would assume he had a clue about what he was doing in the first place."

Cantwell: "You're telling us in your testimony you want a tariff on semiconductors. I'm saying that the last administration and this organization here passed the CHIPS and Science Act so we could reshore semiconductors. You're not going to win the innovation economy by tariffing semiconductors."

First they came for… And Jews said no! Under the text is an illustration of a banner and three signs being held up by people’s hands. The banner says a Jewish rally for freedom and democracy. The signs say “Jews say no to deportations,” free Mahmoud free them all,” and “Trump and Musk won’t keep us safe.”

🚨 Emergency rally this Thurs, 3/20, 6PM in Foley Square

RSVP: jfrej.org/rally

Trump is testing how far he can go with his authoritarian crackdown & rollback of civil liberties. The abduction of Mahmoud Khalil & planned reintro of the Muslim Ban mark a dangerous slide towards fascism.

WE SAY NO!

This is exactly what I have been saying for a while now. At this point, it’s not left vs right that matters, but fighters vs non-fighters. The Dems, and the American people, need fighters.
