Time for a New Political Party #DeregisterDEM

Genuinely why is the SF yimby movement like this. In every other city they're somewhere between normal Democrats and socialists, in SF they're the second coming of Grover Norquist. And they're somehow the highest salience!

Now if only they will help reduce housing costs there.

Purges, every country that went through this says purges.

As liberal as the resistance is, it has to be authoritarian in its own aspects until things can be "back to normal".

Will the party run as its own ticket, not shackled to Democrats?

Their first battle needs to be ousting every elected Democrat in NYC.

We’re 100k strong and are ready for 200k.

Join now, before the midterms, and be part of the fight for something better

Rising Progressive Star Shakes Up Race for Los Angeles Mayor

Fantastic! Raman supported SB79, has led the charge on City Council to reform Measure ULA, and has been deeply involved with efforts to reform permitting at City Hall. Unlike Bass, Raman cares outcomes. Exactly what Los Angeles needs.

Is Samuel Alito Preparing to Disrobe? In this installment of Elie v. US, our justice correspondent explores the week’s big legal news, including a possible Alito retirement. Also, the anti-trans mob’s latest target: tight clothing.

Mystal is stirring that he will retire later this year since he announced a book deal:

Still, isn't that quite late, shouldn't a retirement be in the summer, between SC terms?

Nithya is the exact candidate we need to fix LA’s incompetence and NIMBYism.

She could be a zohran-level candidate who creates a new consensus around progressive urbanism

It’s time to accept that the US supreme court is illegitimate and must be replaced | Ryan Doerfler and Samuel Moyn We need to remake the US high court so Americans don’t suffer future decades of oligarchy-facilitating rule

People are mad at @samuelmoyn.bsky.social but this is a good piece from him and @ryandoerfler.bsky.social on need to accept that SCOTUS has become functionally illegitimate. Key point is legitimacy does require the public to think the court operates in good faith:

Bluesky somehow blossoms a far right element.

I will not vote for any candidate who runs with "we need to move forward" and refuses to prosecute this administration for every single one of their crimes. Accountability is all.

Every private news outlet needs to be nationalized, and its employees investigated.

Many democracies do just fine without a 1st Amendment, Free Speech is a poisoned chalice in the age of social media.

When will you guys storm the state capitol and declare independence? Your window to have rights and freedoms is closing every week.

THIS. They’re in the South Metro now, hitting Carver County & Minneapolis suburbs HARD.

NOTHING HAS CHANGED.

They’re detaining observers because ICE & CBP believe the real problem is people filming them, not that ICE & CBP is committing domestic terror.

Less footage = less national news coverage.

Another reason to register from the party and go elsewhere, tell your family, friends, and community to do so as well, and the Democrats will cease to exist soon enough.

Can I borrow this for our Anti-fascist party manifesto? We need to nail this to the door of every elected Democrat's office.

If we are going to dismantle the diet fascist party, then third parties need to go after the seats they are most competitive in.

For the DSA that is deep blue places.

Democrats are fellow fascists. If the rubicon is crossed, Canada needs to be striking Democratic cities and infrastructure too.

As Adam Tooze said, most elected Democrats should be taken out and shot.

Massie stirring up trouble as an Indy I'm fine with.

An American seeking to start a business will find more opportunity in China.

i think the risk is less that the us government does this - trump has very little appetite for the kind of risks this poses - and more that various right wing groups and donors decide to start “freelancing” in an effort to force the administration’s hand or present them with a fait accompli

The US is their worst enemy now, not a security guarantee. MAD still works. If not, well it is for good men to take as many Americans as possible.

this is a graph crime

America needs a cultural revolution at this point. Struggle sessions and all to reset things.

Call it Truth. It is beyond one city.

China is famously not liberal, and it is now a superpower.

A firmly statist government can work.

The question is will Canada be at war with the US before the next election?

Do you agree wit Stephen Wolf that the Democrats fucked up here, and didn't draw the districts blue enough/not forced Bobby Scott to resign?

We're still waiting on the Supreme Court to gut/destroy the Voting Rights Act. Trump may get his skewed maps yet.
