im having a harder time with politics than i ever have in my life, including the iraq war and the recession. we're in a full blown fascism explosion and the so-called opposition party has never been weaker. everything we've stood for as americans is being eroded, with a whimper.

If anyone in the Democratic Party had a brain they’d be pulling out all the stops to spin up some offensive litigation to blow up or delay any sale. Everything Trump has done here is egregiously illegal, and TikTok has major US competitors who would surely like to see it die. What are you doing??

no the democratic party should not run more candidates opposed to freedom, aka opposed to abortion. there's already a party that thinks it has the power to control women's reproductive organs, we dont need two of them.

I love hearing Democrats on TV because they are just propaganda for Trump nowadays. "Look, the president did this totally insane thing today and we are in danger of becoming a dictatorship. I am also doing nothing about it."

There’s no conservative civil rights icons. They’re the ones who killed MLK. Democrats will never admit this, because they’re cowards.

I don't think most Democrats realize how much the George Floyd protests pissed the MAGAs off. That's all they are doing. Charlie Kirk is being passed off as their George Floyd, and like they weren't allowed to go after him without getting shouted down and reported to HR, you won't go after Kirk.

Assuming a third of the population that is eligible to vote is unreachable because your party's donor base doesn't want you to try anything new is why the Democrats are in the stupid and entirely preventable position they find themselves in, and as a result why this country is in the fucking toilet

No it doesn’t. It requires Democrats STANDING FOR THINGS instead of constantly knifing us in the back, thus attracting support from people who don’t vote because they are (rightly) cynical about politics.

Harris’ book is a farce and honestly it reinforces all of my previous caution about her lack of political killer instinct. Sure, she would have been a much better leader than Trump. But our bar needs to be higher.

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

This is all extremely weird; it is both appropriate and necessary for people to say so. Charlie Kirk was a sleazy podcaster who constantly said repugnant things—that's all he contributed to society—but they're treating him like the Virgin Mary, MLK, Audie Murphy, and Superman all rolled into one.

In the last 72 hours, 95 democrats voted to honor a bigot, no senate democrats objected to the same measure, Trump ordered an illegal prosecution and Chuck Schumer responded by calling for bipartisan budget negotiations with that same Trump. “Vote blue no matter who.”
