Establishment media dismissed Democratic voters as clueless members of the “far left,” fueled by inexplicable anger at their sober-minded betters. fair.org/home/corpora...

Currently going mad viral on TikTok

A Democratic Socialist born in 1997 just beat a Democrat who first took office in 1997

Since submitting my PhD, I've enjoyed many months of frivolous reading. The liberating feeling of reading a graphic novel on the Tube instead of Gramsci, Stuart Hall or Edward Said (love them as I do). Soon, I'll enter the corrections phase and after that, I welcome a year of frivolous reading! 📚 ☺️

The thing that frightens the establishment most about the Democratic Socialists of America is the democratic part.

scandal alert! After winning the DC mayoral primary, Janeese Lewis George held a press conference at Busboys and Poets. (Reports that she may have had hummus remain unconfirmed at this point; but surely more to come on these important developments from Jewish Insider.)

It's Election Day in Maryland! One of the interesting things about today’s race for Montgomery County executive is who’s not on the ballot — the incumbent, Marc Elrich petetucker.substack.com/p/can-will-j...

It has been a very strange 16 months. But I was still not prepared for this astonishing, must-read story indicating that Trump’s Director of National Intelligence often followed political directions from a cult leader. Amazing reporting here from @washingtonpost.com wapo.st/4viLSnW

Minnesota senate primary doesn’t get the attention it deserves, but pits AIPAC-backed Angie Craig against the populist lt gov Peggy Flanagan

AIPAC is a group of Americans that wants to participate in elections, and is doing so by spending millions in NY. Why are you trying to accuse them of being Israeli?

This is a huge sum of money from AIPAC for one House race

I didn’t think Trump had it in him to step back from the brink with Iran, yet that’s exactly what he’s done. While Democrats see a chance to score political points, they should tread carefully. My latest is now up at @counterpunchmedia.bsky.social www.counterpunch.org/2026/06/19/t...

Timely and important story (if you're interested in understanding reality)

“Trump and Netanyahu should never have started the war on Iran… But now it has to end. There is an agreement on the table, and we should do everything we can to make it work. The priority has to be ending the bloodshed...” — Medea Benjamin petetucker.substack.com/p/trump-just...

“Trump currently owns this failed war, but if the Democrats help torpedo the MOU and war resumes, then they will co-own the next war. Trump’s disaster will become theirs as well,” warns Trita Parsi petetucker.substack.com/p/trump-just...

Ahead of DC’s primary tomorrow (Tues June 16), I delved into some forgotten Washington Post history, which bears on its biased coverage today petetucker.substack.com/p/how-the-po...

🤔 interesting read!

Just want to register my strong disapproval of the profane language used in my home country.

my latest — on the Post's biased coverage of DC elections — is now up at @counterpunchmedia.bsky.social www.counterpunch.org/2026/06/12/t...

Threats like this are meant to get people to obey in advance and give up in advance so the regime's work of oppression and control is as easy as possible. DC, we are so much stronger than this historically unpopular, incompetent fraud. He is weaker than he wants any of us to realize.

Q: Here in Washington DC, there's a Democratic primary for mayor. One of the two leading candidates is running a Zohran Mamdani campaign focusing on socialist policies. How would you feel if she wins? TRUMP: Maybe we take back Washington and run it on a federal basis. We won't put up with it.

Brooke Pinto doesn’t want to tax the rich (like herself), while Janeese Lewis George does. I'm sure that has nothing to do with the Post's double standard in reporting on their candidacies... my latest petetucker.substack.com/p/the-posts-...
