Let's all AGREE that a President suggesting that a foreign adversary taking out 2 American cities is "a small price to pay" is the most fucked up thing a President ever said. 25th Amendment NOW.

Barack Obama is back in his role as Democrats’ closer-in-chief. He just cut ads for 24 Senate & gubernatorial campaigns—targeting races where he can help move persuadable voters. At 57% favorability, Obama is the most popular living president. Expect to see much more of him before Election Day. 💙

Not my president. Clearly, not a president for all Americans. “Let them (Iran) take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego.” Then Trump called it a “small price to pay.” Millions of us dead. And his audience laughed. Reporting from my local news…

Tim Snyder is correct: If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money and tackle our corrupt system. There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

Here's some good news to round out the week: progressive Aisha Wahab just won a special Congressional election in California, defeating a centrist backed by millions in AIPAC spending. More proof that organized people can beat organized money.

These people just keep shoving it right in our face, they sit around eating lobster while working class Americans count every dollar to just put food on the table. Trump’s Little Johnson (R-LA) needs to lose his speakership this November. Make a plan to vote and bring 5 friends.

"Mr. Trump, you are the first president in American history to start and lose a war by yourself. You have made America more weak, more alone and less respected. Congress needs to take back the steering wheel from this impaired driver."

Vance just admitted we are paying Iran $300 BILLION in reparations. After losing the First World War, Germany paid US$5 billion (22 billion gold marks) in contemporary currency. Adjusted for inflation, that was still only around $90-95 billion in today's dollars.

‘F around and find out’ is still the Democrats’ position on redistricting and is even more so our position after the SCOTUS ruling. Hakeem Jeffries is talking about a scenario when Illinois, Maryland, Colorado, and New York are totally blue. We could get 52 seats in California.

Biden inherited an out of control pandemic from Trump, quickly got it under control, then presided over a historically strong job market and rising wages. His economic stewardship was envy of the world. Trump on the other hand is now poised again to leave his successor a flaming bag.
