Not surprised that the founder of the Sunrise Movement cult feels that way..

“Black lawmakers and activists across the Deep South argue they have been abandoned by the Democratic Party to fight an existential crisis on their own. They say they’ve been let down by nearly all corners of the party.” Essential read:

hey @trumpstaxes.com have you seen this from All-Star Bilboteach re @poindexterforcongress.com @donforohio.bsky.social @repmarcykaptur.bsky.social Emilia Sykes w/indefatigabale @charlesgaba.com fundraising links? My comment at kos identifies great candidates in overlapping downballot swing districts

The news cycle has moved on since the Louisiana v. Callais decision on April 29, but we cannot. My thoughts on our continued fight for voting rights:

Folks, a *very* exciting announcement: The Downballot has just published updated 2024 presidential results by congressional district for every state with a new map this year! That's 10 states in all, covering a full one-third of the House. Please dive in!

Graham Platner drops Senate bid, with defiant statement insisting rape allegations are false. Our writeup, along with everything we know so far about the process to replace him:

Thank the Lord. Oyster boy Graham Platner is gone. Now to get someone to beat Collins. It will be a challenge now thanks to all of the time wasted on this professional fuckup.

The baseless case against me is about this administration weaponizing the Department of Justice to do their personal bidding: targeting people that they don’t like. I’m not backing down.

Re: Graham Platner, I felt like I was being punked when people acted like he wasn’t obviously dishonest and untrustworthy this entire time. Starting with the unbelievable defense of his tattoo, which I was shocked to see people fall for

If you read just a few comments on any article about Graham Platner it should become crystal clear why victims don’t come forward earlier. The level of cruelty people direct at victims is gutting

Add these to the list.

OK Maine Democrats. Let’s have a talk. You guys fucked this up. In fact, you’ve been fucking up so badly that you haven’t elected a Democrat to the US Senate in 38 years. Only MS, KS, WY, UT, & ID have gone longer But you’re going to get yet another chance to get this right Do Not Fuck It Up

🚨 One of the most common complaints I've received from Dem donors over the 9 months or so has been "why don't you have Graham Platner listed on your U.S. Senate fundraising page?" Now you know. Donate to OTHER Democrats running for Senate today. secure.actblue.com/donate/senat...

Today, we're rescinding our endorsement of Maine U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner and calling on him to immediately withdraw from the race. See the full statement below.

Under Maine law, Platner would have until 5 PM ET on July 13—a week from today—to withdraw his name and still allow his party to nominate a replacement. Democrats would then have to do so by July 27. legislature.maine.gov/statutes/21-...

FUCK EVERY FUCKING PERSON WHO SUPPORTED AND EVEN FUCKING ENDORSED GRAHAM FUCKING PLATNER; EVERYONE WHO SHRUGGED OFF, LAUGHED OFF OR BLEW OFF THE *MOUNTAIN* OF MASSIVE RED FLAGS WHICH WE WERE WARNING ABOUT FOR NEARLY A FUCKING YEAR NOW. YOU FUCKING ASSHOLES.

Fucking oyster boy Graham Platner had more red flags than a bullfighting arena. Now, there's the final straw. Luckily this clown can still drop out and we can have another candidate.

From @mrwilliamjones.bsky.social An Early Look at the Race for Governors www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

The swing state governor races are super important this year. Iowa, Ohio, and others could be a sign of the blue wave. What races should we focus on the most? This quick guide explains it all! An Early Look at the Race for Governors www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Talarico had an interview on 93.7 The Beat today & pushed back against the bs online that Rep. Crockett hasn’t been supportive & mentioned how she endorsed the very next day, & also said it wasn’t her job to win that race. Wish it was said sooner but glad it’s being said. x.com/MichaelKarli...

I'm so sick of people bashing Dems for things they have no control over, and refusing to blame Voters who are actually the ones that got us here, where we are. Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE CLEAR about what was at stake, and still people dismissed them and now whine.

Gov. Mikie Sherrill just signed the NJ Voting Rights Act into law. Here’s what it does:

BREAKING: The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals just ruled 2-1 that ICE cannot detain people under the Trump administration's massive new detention policy for more than 90 days without affording them a bond hearing. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/28...

A nation of immigrants. This interactive map lets you zoom in by census track on which countries of origin are most prominent where. Super cool. Happy 4th. Gift link 🎁 www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Mic drop. This is it. This is all that needs to be said. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is bone-chilling. A conservative hedge fund manager wants to require little girls to pass genital inspections for their “safety.” And it’s only for girls’ sports. There’s a clear link between transphobia and child sexual abuse.

This is my district (Joe "You Lie" Wilson's). There were only 4,000 more votes in the Republican primary than in the Democratic one. It's trending in a Democratic direction because the Columbia suburbs are becoming deep blue. Zyon Khalifa is from Aiken, a traditionally R stronghold in the district.

This is exactly why I detest Bernie DSA leftist types.

NBC’s source = police scanner audio. Makes you wonder why McConnell’s team thought they could keep this quiet. Also, they won’t say whether he’s still in the hospital.

There's a lot of things you don't "get" Mr. Coates. I'm not a Centrist Democrat (I'm a Liberal), but I loathe the Democratic Socialists. L-O-A-T-H-E. I'm not a Jew, but I also loathe people who hate Jews. And that's who you're siding with: youtu.be/RjM1gX3UR18?...

Very thankful for this letter to Becky Pepper-Jackson (the 16 year-old trans girl SCOTUS ruled against yesterday) from James Dale, a gay man whose expulsion from the Boy Scouts was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2000.

There is still one group of people born in the U.S. who are not entitled to birthright citizenship, even after yesterday’s SCOTUS ruling: American Samoans pay taxes, owe “allegiance” to the U.S., and serve in the military—but have no constitutional right to citizenship: boltsmag.org/prosecuted-f...

If there was any doubt that Gov Jared Polis’ legacy is freeing Tina Peters, the NYT reports Polis just fired the clemency board members who revealed he overruled their unanimous wishes www.nytimes.com/2026/07/01/u...

Well well well. Look who just took the lead in the #COGov GOP primary.

Reminder to Colorado journalists: if you’re interviewing a winning candidate who usually claims that elections are rigged, ask them why this election was rigged in their favor.

NEW: A federal judge just ruled that the National Park Service cannot interfere with a protest group's ongoing demonstration featuring signs accusing Trump of sexual abuse and a flag with the caption '8647.'

BREAKING on MS NOW: Mike Johnson's latest effort to force through the SAVE America Act to rig elections just failed. The House failed to clear a procedural vote 198-224 on the NDAA largely because the SAVE Act was attached.

absolutely vital to win the senate this november. need to basically blockade judicial confirmations for the next two years.

SCOTUS reform won't just simply happen if Dems take Congress & the White House. A case has to be made for it—to a skeptical public, to reluctant politicians, to a hostile media. The blowback from the right will be intense and terrify a lot of weak-willed pols. The case has to be made starting *now*

people got mad at me yesterday when i said the dems were not ready to take court reform seriously. 5-4 for non-racial citizenship is not a win, it's a reprieve bsky.app/profile/schu...

what the fuck did yall think she meant
