the people who are always clutching democrats like they are their relatives dont get it. these people, including the ones "on our side" work for us. they do as we tell them to. we dont beg them to come around to our way of thinking. they follow our orders.

The movement (that overlaps with the base), thru assertive action, also moved public opinion to majority support for abolishing ICE in just a few weeks. That makes it easier for Dem leaders to get on board too, despite their evident reluctance. (Not sure why we call them "leaders," TBH.)

The reason congressional Dems are becoming more and more vocal about firings and impeachments is because the base pushed them towards it. *That's* why we should be critical of them when need be.

There has been no show of public support for Rep. Omar by congressional Democrats. That speaks volumes to me.

Islamophobia and loving billionaires is a bipartisan agenda in this country

There has been no show of public support for Rep. Omar by congressional Democrats. That speaks volumes to me.

I voted against the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security and I was pleased to speak with Ta-Nehisi Coates @VanityFair about the mood surrounding that debate. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

Ta-Nehisi Coates: With the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, "Trump has clarified an inconvenient fact—the culture war is an actual war"

I can’t believe their plan of shooting people in the face and bombing their homes hasn’t proven more popular

I do not regret to tell everyone that we are going to win.

For at least a decade the stupidest, most frivolous columnist in America.

TikTok hasn’t let me post all day, multiple vids uploaded hours ago with zero views. many other political accounts there saying the same thing. very cool, very fun!

hey folks, six figure opinion columnist here and gotta say, made a big ol’ whoopsie on the most consequential and honestly, probably the most obvious opinion of my life. thats my bad. anyway, guess I’ll just keep getting paid to give my opinion, thanks for reading

Extremely funny that the champion of the revolutionary left/socialist boogeyman of Republicans everywhere is basically Leslie Knope.

Abolish the Republican Party.

Minnesota’s elected officials (Walz, Smith, Klobuchar, etc ) are afraid to take the streets because they’re scared of being murdered, too.

“Tin soldiers and Trump is coming, we’re finally on our own…”

It is truly incredible to watch elected officials take the quiet/weak/cowardly path like they have a secret rejoinder of “well, what would you do in this situation, don’t judge” in their back pocket when they need it. Meanwhile thousands and thousands of _their own voters_ are risking life, for love

Feigned incompetence is democratic strategy & they've been doing this a while, Biden pretended he couldn't jail Trump for insurrection, Schumer & the congressional democrats pretend they can't do anything about Trump now. They're totally lying.

I do not understand why Dems (or someone) are not broadcasting wall to wall montages of ICE thugs abusing our neighbors, abducting children, terrorizing US citizens, invading homes w no warrant, or murdering mothers. This should be a massive exercise in ISSUE SALIENCE driven by Dem elites.

The anger people have at media institutions and college administrators can’t be detached from this, it’s not just that people can perceive cowardice it’s that they see others with more on the line doing more to stand up for their values than the people who have been trusted to safeguard things

Seeing a bunch of normal ass midwestern moms and dads marching in -20 degrees knowing they might be tear gassed or worse really drives home what a cowardly lot of people the pundit class is

This was orchestrated by Jeffries & Schumer. 100% it was. It's the same tactic they used for the shutdown last year, asking other people to fall on their swords while they publicly stated THEY were going to vote against it. If they won't lead, they MUST be removed from leadership.

no matter how hard Greg Bovino tries to exude rugged masculinity he always comes off like Don Knotts in a Portlandia sketch

Democrats Condemn ICE For Murdering Without Proper Warrants https://theonion.com/democrats-condemn-ice-for-murdering-without-proper-warrants/

this is not a tiktok it is a documentary

You can't reform the moral rot of ICE. It must be destroyed.

The stance from some Democratic leaders, strategists, consultants, and messaging experts is that they are incapable of getting the public to distinguish ICE from the general concept of law enforcement, despite ICE crimes. It’s weak, self-indicting stuff. If that’s too hard for you, why do this job?

Next week, after ICE mows down the entire congregation of a Latino Catholic church, Amy will post pictures from a pancake breakfast at a Protestant church in the suburbs, where she will make a speech about how Miracle Whip prices are too high.

Imagine being so cowardly as a political party that you’re worried about being on the wrong side of public opinion on a secret police kidnapping children and killing people.

As a Canadian, posts like this make me wonder if the Democrats in the U.S. Senate honestly still don't understand what's happening to their country right now or if they simply DON'T CARE about what's happening to their country right now. This tepid response is borderline offensive though, imho.

Is Fuentes practicing politics the right way, Mr. Klein?

Also the "3 strikes" criminal justice bill. Democrats are always burned after seeking bipartisanship with the GOP.

Grifting and Christian white evangelicalism go hand in hand.

It’s true. I once read about it.

They have built a secret police to take us to the camps, kidnapping and killing us in broad daylight and you’re talking about GIVING THE SECRET POLICE MORE FUNDING????? What the fuck is wrong with you people???????

There’s this deep well of frustration among the People™️ that we have hired people who take our money and do nothing for us. They asked us for these difficult jobs and then won’t do actual difficult things. The result is widespread apathy and disengagement because what’s even the point?

A big part of why we are at where we are is that much of the world, the press, foreign leaders, a big hunk of US voters, simply refused to believe it when Democrats said Trump would be as bad as he is.

When you realize all this shit is the result not cutting out the cancer of white supremacy after the Civil War it makes a lot of sense.

Every public figure that worked in the Republican Party for the last 35 years (minimum) owns this. I mean everybody. This is the outcome that everything the GOP did and said for all those years naturally led to. You don’t get to call this an aberration. Racism & stoking resentment was the strategy.

I would be hard-pressed to name a more feckless, embarrassing political body in history than the Senate Democratic caucus. Just utterly useless in this moment.

The Nazis and bigots within our borders are the problem, not the migrants crossing them.

Establishment Dems responding to the threatened annexation of Greenland by messaging about cost of living issues really don’t understand that to Europeans it looks like they either don’t see this as a crisis or are tacitly in favor of it. 1/x

They've changed their faces to please the patriarchy. It's not about what types of women those patriarchal men personally prefer; it's about showing those men that they are willing to submit. And it's a specific kind of look. It shows their willingness to be controlled.
