I can't believe how these people just keep inventing reasons to freak out. This is what primaries are for. I thought these folks loved a primary.

These people are such drama queens.
Can testify to that. I still remember when a high school friend told me he thought of me and my friends when he watched it. I was simultaneously ashamed and proud.
Agreed.
Has anybody seen a pic of Giuliani since his car accident? Has anyone seen a pic of Big Balls since his ass-whooping?
Sure. Keep hope alive.
Mandami is irrelevant to any other race.
I think something that has been under-appreciated in this Trump death watch is that his supporters get to see how many of us will not only celebrate his death but theirs.
“But the idea is to appeal to voters.” You realize that not every voter thinks like you, right? I’m a voter and I promise that the message that works for you won’t work for me.
I’ve always found her off putting but I chalked that up to her autism. The truth is she’s not just a narcissist but also a virulent bigot.
Have you considered that not every message is meant for you? If you like what Pritzker is doing, great. He’s your leader. Why can’t you people just like who you like without using them to beat up on other Dems?
They are only going to get worse when they become MSNOW. They're giving a preview of what the future holds.
My Black ass is on sabbatical. I did my job last November.
You can’t lead people who refuse to get off their ass. Why do you need to be led? Be the change you wish to see.
Because the people aren't in the streets. Labor Day came and went with no protests. Where's the resistance?
I don’t want to be the person who says the evil woman corrupted a good man because everyone is responsible for their own actions but something changed when they married.
I’m prouder of this than I should be.
Watching Jaws and remembering life before cellphones and the internet.
I’m desperately hoping other journalists address his comments but I know they won’t.
This is a big part of the problem we’re dealing with. Velshi tells himself that if people are pissed off, he’s doing his job right. The idea that his job is informing the public doesn’t even enter into the equation.
I was hoping the internet would find him.
She had a whole career advocating for questionable people before she met George. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amal_Cl...
I’ve never seen this. So beautifully bonkers.
Labor Day. No mass protests. No general strike. No taking “to the streets.” Just white people continuing to abuse Black and Jewish lawmakers online while screaming #resist and #DoSomething
I think it had more to do with his wife. Clooney (and his father) have a history of being good allies to Black people and I don’t want to discount that. But once he got married, things changed.
Biden pledged to be a “transitional” president. Leftists spun that as he was promising to only serve one term. What he meant was he was going to empower Black people as much as he could then hand the White House to Harris. Imagine where we would be right now without Clooney’s op ed.
We’re going to see more of this from the leftie pundits as MSNBC becomes MSNOW.
Velshi is a perfect example of non-Black POC who cape for white supremacy. That’s a big part of how we got here.
The white left is white first. The rest of us need to remember that.
I’m not ready to give up on Ukraine just yet.
Gaza’s fate was sealed the moment Trump won re-election. All we can do now is watch.
How many of those troopers are queer or loves someone who is?
The white trash Oval Office.
Executive Orders are not laws. Executive Orders are not laws. Stop giving a shit what this fat fucking, booger eating piss flap does for attention.
I’ve been through this. You’d give anything to bring them back and ease their pain.
Waking, baking, and watching “The Wild Robot.” youtu.be/kzXNdLVZs3k?...
I will keep saying it.. ~white people are waking up to the terrifying reality of how relentlessly cruel white people are ~we have no idea how to survive in a world where the color of our skin will no longer save us ~we're blaming the party we voted out of power for not saving us
But now every couple in commercials is interracial or gay. Which is probably part of why white folks are losing their minds.
Getting caught up on #BeyondTheGates The June/twins storyline feels like soapy perfection.
I imagine Hakeem Jeffries would respond in a similar way.
You stepped to me. You called Dems “spineless pricks” while you hide from your GOP family. Don’t demand that elected Dems fight when you refuse to.
I agree about boundary setting but at some point you need to DO SOMETHING. You need to climb out of your comfort zone and deal with the fascists around you, esp the ones in your family and community. Y'all keep demanding leaders then when you're told what you need to do, you make excuses.
Again it doesn’t have to be about Trump. I work with secret magats. I just keep complaining about higher prices in the cafeteria and the vending machines. One of them mentioned his daughter was flying into town and I said “Oof. I hope there’s enough air traffic controllers on duty.”
A perfectly sane, humane sentiment. Unfortunately it doesn’t work in a country where half the population suffers from Medieval Peasant Brain. You can’t keep kids safe when their own parents vote to turn them into cannon fodder.
And it doesn’t even have to be about him. Talk about how expensive everything is.
I feel like Bluesky is just a giant prayer circle right now.
It would be so good for him to die on Labor Day weekend so we could celebrate it every year.
You avoid your relatives then call other people spineless.
What do you think kicking him out of the party looks like? How does that process work?
Maybe. I wouldn’t be surprised if my hillbilly neighbors are shooting at chemtrails.
There’s some weird noises happening in my neighborhood right now so I’m going to put on my waders and check Nextdoor. Wish me luck.
I will never forgive what was done to this man. Never.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they were thinking it was Schumer.
Absolute negligence on the part of Jaime Harrison!
- neoliberal - corporatist
I’ve got a city council race going on now. I demand that Hakeem Jeffries make an endorsement! If he doesn’t, I blame the DNC!
Right? These are the people who keep claiming they’re going to take down the Democratic machine.
Nobody cares about Rahm Emmanuel or Megyn Kelly.
You don't understand what the DNC does. That's obvious. It's also why serious people need to not waste time engaging with you.
Are you really doing the "I have a Black friend" thing? Regardless, every marginalized group has crackpots and sellouts.
Don't bother. These people aren't interested in reality. They're outrage merchants.
You're trying to change the subject. Which is that the people out here attacking Dems the loudest do that because they are too timid to confront their white friends and family.
Leftists just stay in a state of inchoate rage at everything.
Yes. Bernie has been having rallies for ten years. We know who the audience is.
They are taking action and that’s energizing them. Unlike keyboard warriors who have to be “inspired.”
You know there’s photos and videos of these rallies, right?
Okay, I’m glad you encouraged me to keep reading. The left is such a mess.
Yes they were. White leftists who don’t vote.
I used to work book fairs. You can find some real crazies. A homeschooling convention sounds like a nightmare.
No they aren't. They're popular with white leftists.
I wonder how many people calling Dems weak are going to keep their head down when hanging with MAGA friends and family this holiday weekend and say nothing.
The concern among the base is that the party is trying to center whiteness.
The replies are a blockfest.
"Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez remain popular with the Democratic base..." That's when I stopped reading.
They really think ageism is a winning strategy.
The irony is that offline voters have no problem with the word "centrist."
She reminds me a lot of Sarah Kendzior, in that we've gotten to watch her lose her mind in real time. She's crazy as a soup sandwich now.
At this point I have no idea what they think a "centrist" is.
They are trying everything they can to provoke us and our white "allies" want the same thing.
She's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
"The conservative movement needs to take stock of its failures." Let's see if the Never Trumpers are willing to do that instead of blaming Dems for "forcing" these people to choose fascism. Who am I kidding? They'll just blame the Clintons.
I really hope Wired pulls her piece down.
Have they called him "authentic" yet? That's usually when you can tell that the imprinting is complete.
Nothing crashes these people out like asking them for specifics.
Speaking of which, Shrek seems to be keeping a low profile.
Harrison was one of the most effective DNC chairs I've seen. But now the DNC is in the hands of a white man. Go criticize him.
Nancy wandered into the wrong neighborhood.
This is just so evil. They don't care a bit about the real world pain that these people are going through. Nothing distracts them from their hate and bigotry.
Okay. We'll add that to the list of action items. "Stop being so shitty" Thanks for the valuable input.
Bell has the job now because Cori Bush got the boot so they’re doubling down on a losing strategy. It’s bonkers.
I was half listening to the radio this morning and there was a warning about rip currents on Lake Erie. That made me think about Malcolm-Jamal Warner. Anyway, this is the last thing I saw him in and he was amazing. youtu.be/gdNxjPKtqmw?...
They'll go to cookouts with their maga family, and then come back to yell at Jeffries and Schumer.
They've got end of the summer barbecues to plan. 😑
I’ve heard about the OH-11 Labor Day parade for my entire life but I’ve never attended. Maybe that changes this year. I need some offline politics and it will give me a chance to reconnect with my rep. www.11cdccparade.com
So anyone who doesn’t “own the means of production” is working class? Does it matter how much money they make?
I’m currently looking at all these fake white allies and realizing how treacherous they are. Would I be doing that during the Civil Rights Movement?
Feelings only matter for the white working class.
Defund was another example of white leftists infesting a cause and destroying it from the inside out by driving away potential allies.
Where did you learn that he's influential in the "conservative wing of the Democratic Party" whatever that is?
