80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate. Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

“The storied choice between socialism and barbarism was made exquisitely clear a good many years ago in the United States, and both major parties chose barbarism.”

So so good! This is so perfectly stated.

Please call your PA representatives and Gov Shapiro and ask them to pass the budget.

New in PN: 1984, Idiocracy version "Despite Trump’s desperate efforts to hypnotize people into believing his tariff bowel movements smell like sunshine and roses, a large majority of Americans are not enjoying the bouquet of rising prices when they go to the grocery store."

It seems like so many people on the right should be aligned with so many people on the left over the doomsday existential threat of AI and robotics in the hands of a handful of greedy oligarchs. But they have succeeded in pitting us against each other with culture war drivel.

Mike Johnson is obstructing the US Constitution. President Lyndon Johnson was sworn in by Sarah Hughes, a US District Court Judge for Northern District of Texas. President Calvin Coolidge was sworn in by his own father – a notary public and justice of the peace. Swear in Adelita Grijalva. Now.

"Let me be clear: The president has both the funding and the authority to fund SNAP during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.” Gov. Andy Beshear

You guys like air guitar right? Well hell, you're gonna love air turkey Welcome to our Trump MAGA Thanksgiving y'all He defied a court order to make this happen for you guys !

Pretty sure this is how it happened many thousands of years ago.

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has named an all-female transition team – including Elana Leopold, Maria Torres-Springer, Grace Bonilla, Melanie Hartzog, and Linda Khan.

I'm here in Washington working with my Democratic colleagues to protect healthcare for every American, but Republicans refuse to meet with us. I decided to attend Speaker Johnson’s press conference today to speak to him.

Americans are still going hungry as Trump and the Republicans withhold funding for SNAP. Now that we got out the vote, please consider donating as Thanksgiving is just around the corner and food banks are overwhelmed with need. givebutter.com/chescocares

Mamdani cracks 1M votes, the first NYC mayor to do so since John Lindsay in 1969

Republicans thought they had a permanent hold over young men. They didn't. Spanberger wins men 18-29 by 14%, Sherrill by 10%, and Mamdani by a stunning 40%.

The factional grifters will hate this, but the Mamdani-Spanberger-Sherrill axis actually suggests the outlines of a broad, emerging Dem coalition organized around both anti-Trump *and* affordability politics, not a party bitterly divided against itself.

Seems like a good time for the Speaker of the House to swear in Rep. Grijalva.

Wow

Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

Zohran Mamdani, a New York State Assembly member and Democratic Socialist, has won the New York City mayoral election, per Decision Desk HQ. Mamdani is expected to win decisively, and Decision Desk called the race just three minutes after the polls closed.

As the polls close in New York City, Hasan Piker tells us how he feels about the future of the Democratic Party at the official results party for the Mamdani campaign.

Over half of the corporations bankrolling Trump’s vanity ballroom are facing (or recently faced) federal investigations into wrongdoing — including violating workers’ rights or misleading consumers. They also have a combined $279 BILLION in federal contracts. Follow the money.

Blumenthal: We’re going to continue finding more of the ballroom donors who evidently didn’t want their names revealed. And let me name them: BlackRock, Susquehanna International, Nvidia, OpenAI, Vantive, and Extremity Care. And so, we will use every possible resource to expose this corruption to

It's sadder that Teen Vogue is being eroded into nothingness because I was just days ago gushing about how its strangely one of the best national politics and policy magazines around.

They gutted the Washington Post. CBS. NYT. Now Teen Vogue. The point isn't to bring in more conservatives. They've reached that saturation point. They are killing the fourth estate and buying up the social media to control the messages we see. These were all targeted to disarm the left of truth.

About Teen Vogue, I don't read or care much for a lot of mainstream media, but Teen Vogue is the only consistent non-Native media outlet that has always done an incredible job reporting on Native issues and giving our talent a platform to shine and not just to fill their "diversity" quota.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

These Trump fact checks are getting kind of long. Can we shorten things up on those columns and just tell us which parts are true? I feel like that would save a lot of time.

Good to know that Fox segments determine our foreign policy as well as domestic, and provide most of the cabinet appointees.
