House Democrats face internal conflict over "incredibly stupid" forced vote Lawmakers are "very pissed" about the vote to denounce Chuy Garcia, one senior House Democrat said.

What a disappointment Perez is, at every turn. How is this what she wants to focus on right now?

Personally, I think the idea that all women should be measured by the failures of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris is actually a sort of sexist doomerism.

I'm no political expert but this seems like a bad way to start your fundraising emails at this particular moment in time

An exchange on twitter.

If you hate Al you probably just hate art and expression

It's an infinite mashup of all the best art ever made by humans

If you hate the juice at the bottom of a restaurant dumpster you just hate food and cooking.

This is extremely dangerous.

If you’re a journalist, politician, artist, or public figure, or anyone with a platform, you need to stop using X.

You’re not helping by remaining on the platform. You can say you’re fighting where the people are, but you won’t beat the algorithm.

Lead people off X.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Marie Glusenkemp-Perez is so overrated.

She faced Joe Kent (a proud boy) in both of her runs and people use her as an example of "only Dem who could win there" in a Dem-trending district.

My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.
No more hiding behind election terms.

Sadly Jeffries made a statement saying he thinks Schumer should still be Senate leader.

@captmarkkelly.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov it's time for leadership change! Ask for it, we support you! It's not personal, it's professional, we require and demand more competent party leadership

Absolutely.

The far right took over the GOP through the long process of taking over local and county organizations and the left can do the same. It’s not an instant fix but it actually works.

Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.

Exactly. We need more fighters like Kat. Dems have to change and become the opposition party that we deserve.

Trump's poll numbers are in the toilet, Dems won BIG on Tuesday, but @schumer.senate.gov decides that NOW is the time to capitulate in return for NOTHING. Pathetic lack of leadership. He owes it to the American people to step down from his leadership position, and make room for a real leader.

Do you demand Schumer's removal as leader? If not, we'll have to assume you're on board with the deal

10.11.2025 03:19 β€” πŸ‘ 136    πŸ” 10    πŸ’¬ 4    πŸ“Œ 3

Schumer knew and this was done with his approval according to reporting.

The coordinated nature of thisβ€”none are facing voters in 2026β€”means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

I know this sounds mean but if you think that this is a coincidence you're more than a bit of a mark. If Kaine had been up next year, it would have been Warner, if Slotkin was retiring, Peters, etc.

In a normal democracy, a total collapse of party leadership would result in an no-confidence vote and immediate snap elections to find leaders who can lead

I actually do feel for House Democrats as much as they suck because they universally held the line aside from one guy who I get the sense they no longer talk to and as a result you now have bland centrist frontliners releasing absolutely furious statements calling to burn down the Senate

One reason I don't think it's useful to argue about the correct tactics for Democrats to win elections is winning elections isn't enough. They've won the presidency 5 out of 9 times since 1992 and where are we now. The question is how we create something better than a dead cat bounce party
