In Brazil, a member of congress organized and led the fascist resistance In the US, the Dems are relying on the same tactics they’ve always used-ineffective messaging while swelling the bank accounts of their consulting firms who drag them to the middle on issues their voters find important

After the first round elections, Congressman André Janones created a WhatsApp channel titled “Lula’s Army.” It ballooned to 10 million people following his commands on how to behave online to counteract Meta’s far-right-favouring algorithms. The right knows how to use socials. We must learn, too.

Absolutely brutal (but honest) criticism of the “Dem Apparatus “ which I don’t believe has gotten through to them even after the ‘24 autopsy. Enlightening to find out that we have “consultants” to blame (partially) for Dem party leadership infuriating insistence on moving to the center because

Just as a private equity firm buys out a corporation and strips it for parts, a consultant class is raiding the Democratic Party and getting “generationally wealthy” along the way New from me and @adambonica.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/2163...

Smoke jumper and union leader Sam Forstag has spent his career putting Montanans first. Meanwhile, Aaron Flint is ready to fall in line with his D.C. party bosses. Montana needs a fighter, not another D.C. puppet, and Sam’s ready to take that fight to Congress.

Democrats are fired up and communities across the country are organizing with them. While Republicans double down on an agenda that drives up costs and leaves working families behind, Democrats are fighting for a government that works for the people.

Republicans are begging billionaires to bail out their campaigns. Meanwhile, Democrats are building a people-powered wave heading into the final stretch. The House is ours.

Maybe Jeffries @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social should stop spending valuable resources against progressive candidates in his own caucus Replace Hakeem as leader @electdemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.org @housedemocrats.bsky.social

The Washington Sun@washingtonsun.com

The flagship Democratic House super PAC is urging donors to pony up more cash in the final sprint before the midterms, pointing to private polling showing a slew of deep-red House seats within the party’s reach.

@democrats.org let me give you some free advice that might increase donations 1. Stop allowing people like criminal Cuellar, Fetterman, & Gluesenkamp to bring shame to the party - invest in recruiting better candidates 2. Listen when we tell you we want Schumer & Jeffries replaced

Politico@politico.com

As the Senate map pushes into deep-red states, Dems worry their money won’t reach far enough to make some of them legitimate battlegrounds. It’s setting the party up for a series of difficult choices in the closing weeks of the midterms. 🔗 politi.co/4jFnKZK

Mission accepted We must ALL contact @repbillfoster.bsky.social , members of the Dem FS committee ushousefsc.bsky.social and its ranking member @repmaxinewaters.bsky.social so they know what we expect. Get on board or replace appeasers with members who will do OUR bidding You work for us

The Bulwark@thebulwark.com

@timmiller.bsky.social unloads on Democrats already looking for excuses not to investigate companies that cozied up to Trump and profited from it: "They were doing the corruption! If they’re doing unprecedented levels of corruption, they should be investigated."

The 48% - 52% odds of history repeating itself (according to the study of a situation such as the U.S. is in) seemed consoling until other factors are considered. “The answer is almost certainly that they (the military) will abandon the Constitution and democracy.” Damn @carmitage.bsky.social

Mother Jones@motherjones.com

Hear that? Neither do we. On Monday, the president held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new White House helipad, during which the audio was indecipherable, leading a Newsmax reporter to speculate that the reason might be the absence of the usual television press pool.

Sherrill, a mod Dem, once a member of the conservative Blue Dogs in the U.S. HOR, ran a relentlessly centrist, don’t-rock-the-boat campaign She (like Biden, Harris & other mod Dems) STILL believe MAGA candidates can be negotiated with Insanity in the Dem Party will end US democracy

So it will ultimately come down to the supreme court IF the Republican House clerk (chosen by Johnson) refuses to list incoming Dem electeds. Great. Ugh. 😑

Great piece on Kansas politics-not just the candidates. @prospect.org Truly pathetic that we’re having to rely on the Trump effect to “maybe” eek out a couple of important races while voters will continue to ensure an R supermajority Ugh prospect.org/2026/09/21/b...

I’m sure you are aware of this. Care to make a stmnt? Jeffries appointed Gottheimer co-chair of the House Dem Comm on AI. The NJ rep not only holds up to $1.4 M worth of stock in AI developers like Amazon & Meta, he bought more in chipmakers & a data center co. We want a new leader

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@ocasio-cortez.house.gov

Washington’s refusal to regulate AI is a corruption story. Just ask Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson.

Hakeem Jeffries and many other Dem elected’s think we’re either desperate, stupid, uninformed, or gullible It’s past time they learn that we are none of the above @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social @democrats.org @kenmartin.bsky.social

David Moore@davidrussellmoore.bsky.social

What will House Dems do about AI regulation? Hakeem Jeffries appointed Rep. Josh Gottheimer to be co-chair of the House Dem Commission on AI. The #NJ05 rep not only holds up to $1.4 million worth of stock in AI developers like Amazon and Meta, he bought more in chipmakers and a data center company.

We want Schumer & Fetterman gone @schumer.senate.gov should do the right thing for once-resign his leadership position then announce his retirement Fetterman should have been expelled from the D caucus a year ago @coons.senate.gov @democrats.senate.gov you are a bunch of cowards

George Takei@georgetakei.bsky.social

These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP. Schumer Fetterman Cortez Masto Durbin King Shaheen Gillibrand Schatz Hassan Peters Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

Interesting report but nothing is mentioned about possible deportation threats of the 2500 immigrant workers at this particular plant I’m just wondering if that has anything to do with the plant closure

As we head to the midterms and beyond, Democrats are refusing to write off any voter. Our national Local Listeners program made nearly 450,000 calls to 2020 voters who sat out in 2024 to hear how they’re feeling about the direction of the country and the issues most important to them.
