Worthless representation. They live in gated communities, protecting themselves and only showing concern for us when they need our vote. The Democratic party needs to decide what it stands for - either progressive for the people or a bunch of corporate whores who may as well be republicans.

Right on! Attacking the only people standing between us and fascism, doing everything they can even tho voters left them high and dry last fall, is an excellent idea! That's sure to help us retake power late this year, and maybe have an actual chance to really do something. Love it!

“Doing everything they can” Like voting to approve a Trump nominated judge for a lifetime appointment? Is that helping stand between us and fascism?

Lololololllollloolol That’s your position? The Trump nominated judge that thinks the 2020 election was stolen will “rule against him” Jesus Christ.

Oh, can't you have any sympathy for how difficult it must be to make the tiny sounds of DNC "opposition" while enabling fascism in the trademarked passive aggressive style of 21st century American Democratic politicians?

A lot of Democrats think they were elected to do normal political stuff like proposing and passing laws, conducting pro-forma oversight, working with their friends on the other side of the aisle, etc. they can’t acknowledge we’ve left that world behind, so they pretend it still exists

Klobuchar has been a massive disappointment. I wasn't a fan to begin with but she's been completely unable to meet the moment. I'm more likely to see her voting for Trump's picks than anything, even while his goons are murdering her constituents.

My take: establishment dems struggle with this because law enforcement has been equally guilty of unlawful use of force under their own watch. Condemning it now would be met with cries of hypocrisy.

Here’s the thing about Democrats that I have learned in the past few years: they are scared to death of talking about emotion or values or anything even close to that. They can only frame issues or events in terms of policy. This response is essentially expressing a policy difference.

Klobuchar is only arguing that this is bad policy, that if ICE used different tactics then streets would be safer. She seems to skip over any discussion of how insane it is that we are disappearing people off the streets, basically picking up anyone who looks vaguely Latino.

Her tweet doesn’t even seem to register that this was a murder, only that ICE presence generally makes our streets less safe (for some unmentioned reason). It’s so antiseptic and detached from the tragedy of the moment.

It’s as though she doesn’t want to appear as a human being. This is true of a lot of Dems, especially leadership. Don’t express outrage. Don’t point out the absurdity and danger of what the admin is doing. In fact, any negative statement has to be tied to “kitchen table” issues.

It’s one of two reasons: 1) They’re fucking cowards. 2) This is further proof that the two parties really DO want the same things. bsky.app/profile/meta...

Time to wake the fuck up, America. We were played. Hard. @thedemocrats have lied to us for four years. They were in on it, which is why nothing was done to Trump. There is no difference between the two parties. They conspired against us because they know we’re a nation of fucking idiots.

Establishment Dems have been playing Washington Generals to the GOP's Harlem Globetrotters for so long it's just second nature to them. The GOP's evolution from a partially fascist to a completely fascist party hasn't changed that a bit.

Because they're cowards who are afraid of upsetting the money. What's that? A woman was murdered in cold blood by the masked up unregulated gestapo? Better rush to the socials and read the affordability script, written entirely by paid consultants, freshly delivered moments before filming.

I can not stand the sight of Klobachar since she gave that horrible inauguration speech for trump grinning, bowing and scraping like a dipshit. The Citizens United dems ride that gravy train with the GOP. The dems in the senate help the GOP every chance they get.

This woman will always put her own bottom line ahead of everyone and everything else. Let’s make her Governor of Minnesota!

Is this sort of thing that always made Bernie Sanders stand out so clearly to me. The DNC would be going on with their rhetoric and never really changed anything and Bernie would stand up and clearly state what was so obviously wrong with the situation. Cutting through with clarity was so refreshing

George Burns once said "The key to being a good actor is sincerity. If you can fake that, you got it made". Democrats like Klobuchar, Schumer, Biden and the rest are so pathetic and programmed, they can't even fake being fake anymore.

"Or else the very incredibly many Americans fully opposed to masked agents of the Racist Terror Department kidnapping and shooting people have no representation whatsoever." I actually think most Americans are fully incapable of grasping this. There are two parties, so one *must* be The Good Guys.

They're the "good cops" in the old routine to keep a state monopoly on violence. They can't just say federal employees shouldn't be allowed to murder you. Imaginary moderates won't think they're tough on crime anymore.
