Every Dem that voted yes needs to be primaried, along with the centrist Dems. We need don't need 'bipartisanship' with fascists. We need fighters. Push the party to the left. The actual left, not what usually passes for it in the US.

It feels obvious at this point that Chuck Schumer has a humiliation fetish.

My record on Palestine speaks for itself. I’m proud of it. One of the strongest in Congress. I throw down for pro-Palestine candidates. Largely unrecognized work. That’s fine. Disagreements are fine, too. But if you want to toss all that for 1 half assed MTG stunt, be my guest. I know where I stand.

I see the misinformation machine is kicking up to support Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Israel amendment. Advocates have a responsibility to be clear about what legislation does and doesn’t do. Her amendment did NOT cut off offensive aid to Israel. We shouldn’t pretend it does. My statement on it:

When Ezra Klein told Jon Stewart about out-of-control regulations ruining Biden's rural broadband program, the clip went viral, with Elon Musk’s help. But the story wasn’t true—and the telecom monopolies who were the real saboteurs are still laughing. washingtonmonthly.com/2025/07/09/t...

Definitely not beating the 'controlled opposition' claims. "Haunt them for years?" I doubt any of them will suffer for it. Not in the polls, not in their bank accounts (all they really care about), and not in their nonexistent conscience. Schumer's a senile idiot that has no business in politics.

To every Democratic Party consultant, candidate, staffer, and operative I have ever said “money doesn’t vote” to, I would like to reiterate…MONEY DOESNT VOTE.

he's right and he's right to say it

Progressives get steamrolled all the time in Congress. We are an outnumbered bloc, especially on matters of defense. Shouldn’t be hard. They know this isn’t “lefty” opposition. It is BROAD opposition from the American people across the board. The numbers show that. That’s why they’re pushing it.

Crazy how long this conversation has been going on

The Dems don’t need to move more center. That’s where they ARE. The party needs to be WAY MORE PROGRESSIVE!! PERIOD. We have a FEW wonderful progressive leaders sprinkled in with a horde of NEOLIBS. THAT is the DEM machine. THAT got us HERE. @kenmartin.bsky.social @davidhogg.bsky.social

I support the US garment industry. I don't believe in making life harder for immigrants or erecting blanket tariffs. So how can we reshore some of our US garment manufacturing without xenophobia or protectionism? Here's my view. 🧵

Think I'll wait for the Switch 2 emulator. Nothing they showed was worth that much. And then the tariffs on top of that? Nah.

Nintendo executives are reportedly hoping you’re too preoccupied with Switch 2 news to remember they essentially enslaved a hacker fairly recently. paletteswap.site/dif...

I, for one, welcome the “abundance” fight. It shows the left can fight Trumpism while wrestling with how we can be better than we’ve been. I have no interest in “actually the government has been doing great” liberalism.
