You are an absolutely worthless piece of crap. Step down. You low key supported this shit because you’ve been bribed by AIPAC and the military industrial complex. Your comments on CNN were abhorrent. Get the fuck out of my party.

This video perfectly encapsulates the do nothing nature of Dems. I’d also throw in the performative BS often used by Dems in campaign promises with little commitment to action once elected. Why? Because they’re also bought/bribed. The GOP is worse but we knew that.

Do you know what is less popular than tax cuts for the rich? Your position of fighting against a modest tax increase on the wealthy in California. You can’t be trusted.

Prior to 2015, if any candidate for elected office had begun a public statement or tweet with this sentence, he or she would have been laughed out of public life.

Now, Americans re-elect them as commander-in-chief. I will never allow myself to become numb to his insanity.

You vetoed M4A in CA. Given how the base has been trending, it looks like you’ll need to revise your stance on certain issues if you think you will win the nomination in 2028. You’re up in the polls now but remember…early winners, late losers.

So that’s your backtracking response to how you crashed when trying to whitewash the horrors of a detention center because there was a preponderance of women ice officers running the place? How about you break with Schumer and call for abolishing DHS. Otherwise, 3rd place is not that bad.

β€œI am somebody” shaped how millions of us saw ourselves as kids, including me. That message mattered. It still does.

Reined in?? Abolishing this agency and criminally prosecuting its leadership and rank/file is really the only solution. Why do you insist on positioning yourself as a Maga Dem? I know the answer: YOUR DONORS!

Do Democrats Have a Plan for the Post-Trump World Order? A party tries to figure it out in real time, on the world stage in Munich.

"Rebuild, redeem, recover, reassure, remind them it's not all Trump." There’s a rough consensus that the world is transitioning to a new order, but no one really has any idea what the world is moving toward.

Independent journalist, Georgia Fort, is being prosecuted for doing her job: reporting.

We had an in-depth discussion about how mainstream media is missing the nuance of what is happening in Minneapolis/St. Paul & her vision for the future of independent journalism.

Interesting interview. It’s infuriating to see the conflation that anti-Zionism = anti-Semitism. This conflation has only led to greater anti-Semitism. When it comes to Trump and his cronies, they seem perfectly fine with anti-semitism but not anti-Zionism.

I think you grabbed a meme of a list of legislation labeled as progressive but was very much flawed. HR4447, for instance, had funds devoted to nuclear energy and carbon capture(which hardly exists). Iron Dome was a giveaway to defense contractors.

I did vote for Harris in spite of her being a status quo candidate. Was she in favor of M4A? No. Was she going to halt arms to Israel? No. Did her proposed policies meaningfully address climate catastrophe? No. Bottom line: she catered to corporate donors which means no improvement to those in need.

Savannah teacher killed in crash by man fleeing from ICE According to the Chatham County Police Department, Monday morning’s fatal crash was the result of a chase between Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and a suspect.

Police around the country have banned car chases -- b/c they're deadly.

But not ICE.

So when an undocumented immigrant -- w/ no criminal record -- tried to drive away from a stop this morning, ICE gave chase.

The result: a school teacher is dead.

This is How Democrats Must Message To Win Back The Majority Timidity, playing possum, & leaning to the mythical "center" won't help Democrats excite the base or the majority. Instead, they must actually stand for something and communicate it with authenticity.

So now you’re are defenders of the Epstein pedo class by insisting Peter Attia remain at CBS. A deliberate crash and burn by Ellison and his hand picked incompetent news director, Weiss.

It the status quo mentality of the corp Dems. They want to project that they’re providing a resistance to what the Trump Admin is doing but really, they tend to hate the Bernie wing more. Jeffries has crashed and burned in two interviews over the past 3 days. Basically saying that he will not change

What did Harris offer? Not even a continuation of Biden’s policies. She never committed to keeping Lina Khan in place. She did not commit to keeping the CFPB in place. Lackluster support for the Pro-Act. Was she willing to hold Israel accountable for perpetrating a genocide? I prefer material change
