I mean, George Wallace won his gubernatorial election with the help of the Black vote precisely *because* he apologized and *did better*. He then went on to appoint more Black judges to the Alabama bench during his one term in the 80s than any other governor before or since. What a weird dig.
It might help if press acknowledged Senator Wyden getting anti-trans provisions removed from the Republican Budget & or that if any time this app discussed Rep McBride they didn’t act like she’s a blood traitor because of an article so poorly written it basically said the opposite of the transcript.
Why do Democrats fund TAP?
In the last few days Democrats broke Iowa’s state supermajority & Ernst bowed out of running for reelection, Senator Barrasso wrote an op-ed crying about how effective Schumer has been at blocking the admin, & DNCVC Kenyatta started a 105-mile walk to draw attention to PA GOP cutting transit funds.
Aside from how Obama is remembered, it's striking that Obamacare is basically the last serious presidential legislative agenda that wasn't just trying to contort an annual budget bill to fit in everything you can crowbar into it.
Ali veshi is another dumb Indian Muslim who came to America by way of east Africa He is not even middle eastern yet pushes middle eastern propaganda just like his buddy mamdani
Those debts are inconsequential compared to the net nearly $100 B PER YR NY & CA EACH send to finance your Confederate monuments, Vagina Policing and all that other red state bullshit, Adolf. If we stopped supporting your lazy, parasitic, backward a$$es we'd have no debt at all.
The texas an Missouri state goverments were controlled by elitist liberal epidemiologists, then?
Law varied by state on the topic of masking outdoors and social distancing www.cnn.com/2020/06/19/u...
Honestly, I think a lot of politicians on both sides of the Atlantic got psyoped into viewing salt of the earth bigots as more authentic and worthy than them and thinking therefore they must ritually cleanse their sin of education by rolling in the gutter.
You imagine some politically correct leftist central bureau in DC, but decisions were made by a combination of confused/panicked CDC/WH staff recommendations,state and local health departments and school districts including some in very red areas. Trump was President when the protests started.
By the way, this little moron didn't provide the quote, even after I requested it 15 times. The 'progressives' who lied about Biden were fine with Trump.
No, just doing her bit as a foot soldiers for the patriarchy and white supremacy. Their attacks are laser focused on the 92%.
Jesus Fuck. The self importance. The tone deafness. The THEATRICS.
"I do have to say it" is such a fascinating take when, quite literally, shutting up is free.
The core of you fallacy is your hand waving about who made those decisions
Ding Ding Ding!! Bingo! Exactly!! 💯💯💯💯🎯🎯🎯🎯💯💯💯💯🎯🎯🎯🎯💯💯💯💯🎯🎯🎯🎯💯💯💯💯
Inside and outside are different things Also lots of hand waving about who actually made those decisions
I think this is an obnoxious thing for Schatz to say but I think the assumption “I, a politics sicko who spends a lot of time on Bluesky, have a better sense of the electorate than a sitting US Senator” bears some examination
Remember when Tulsi Gabbard was a leftist hero? Yeah. Me too.
Hillary Clinton, who Reich stabbed in the back in 2016, literally proposed a comprehensive universal healthcare system and supported a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United. Reich fucking helped put Trump in the White House by dividing democrats who were trying to do what he wants.
Kamala Harris rejected RFK Jr and his snake oil. Every single Democrat voted against Trump's fellow fraud. What is it that the 66% of men who voted for Trump, Vance and RFK Jr liked so much? Trump 'saying what he means ' led to millions of COVID deaths and measles coming back.
Good to see a bipartisan group of former CDC Directors raise alarms in the NY Times about RFK Jr. dismantling US public health. And I can’t help but feel frustrated that they didn’t do this last year when public health was on the ballot—nor did NYT frame it that way—when we had a chance to stop it.
Wow. He is really an ass.
And that is a lie.
Farmers' have to labor on Labor Day if they're practicing animal husbandry, but not if they're just horticulturists. Anyway, was just trying to think of something to say along with asking for people to share their favorite images of agrivoltaics. I just ran across this one. #AgPV #EnergySky
Democrats dominated the black working class. Other working class people have no excuse whatsoever. Robert Reich blocked me over a decade ago on Facebook for pointing this out. The problem isn't "what should Dems do". It's "WTF is wrong with suicidally racist workers".

He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
He's been saying the same shit for 40 years and during that time white workers, including unionized workers, have turned their backs on Sherrod Brown and Biden and Harris, the most pro-union pro-working class politicians, just so they can express their racism.
I’ve been racking my brain, trying to figure out how to explain to the younger gen how much queer rights have changed in the last 10-20 years, because there’s this idea that nothing has changed and that Ds are getting further to the right and if your entire life has been with Trump in politics, 1/
Crime is down nationwide. It's down big longterm, except for the COVID-19 spike that lasted a couple of years. Trump is a court-ruled rapist and general criminal, as are Supreme Court Republicans, Congressional Republicans and GOP governors and legislators. apnews.com/article/trum...
Fifty-one of the 85 Federalist papers were written by a guy born in Nevis.
IT’S ALL NATIVE LAND!
I got blocked too. Poor baby wants to be cheered for his "Dems in disarray" original, brave, pablum.
Someone doesn’t like the truth.
Well during the timeouts of your 60 yrs of “sports playing” you should’ve done your homework. It’s not a Dem leadership problem, white people have a nasty habit of voting for whiteness at the expense of everyone else. This is a 60 yr history of them doing that.😒
Are Stelter & friends gonna mock him too or does that only happen when a Democratic President’s public medical records show he doesn’t have it & he signs a transformative law for Parkinson’s research thanks to the work of a Dem Rep forced into early retirement due to progressive supranuclear palsy?
Those "critics" should have been paying attention over the last 40 years when Republicans turned redistricting into a source of power. For them to only notice now that Democrats are retaliating is gross hypocrisy.
i think it’s bad, actually, that people who have both a professional and a social responsibility to tell the truth weaponize their professional standing to deliberately mislead people
Jill Stein and Cornel West both disgust me — such goddamn, self-serving hypocrites.
Coming out with this just after the WSJ explained that Trump and R's are furious about Schumer's "unprecedented" obstruction of appointments, you show a commitment to narrative over truth
Oh you do 90% “dems suck” content but its not your fault that people believe you
.@velshi.com “Head in the sand”? Please. Part of the problem is limp news coverage that turns every Dem wobble into a five-alarm fire while treating GOP extremism as background noise. That’s what depresses our base.
Kamala Harris at her closing campaign rally: "Donald Trump intends to use the United States Military against American citizens who simply disagree with him."
He did something similar to contractors in NY /NJ. When they finished work on his casino or buildings, he decided that he wasn’t going pay them. So, the workers took him to court, and of course they had no money, and Trump has a ton of lawyers, so guess who won? The cheater in chief. #Prick
I'm quoting this for the idiot 'Do Something' posters who excoriate Schumer but refuse to criticize the 92 year old crank Chuck Grassley. Call it 'The Tale of Two Chucks.'
How you people put up with all the colonialism and genocide and environmental damage from us is hard to understand. Europe has been peacefully knitting hand warmers and preparing appetizers for centuries while Americans make a mess.
Why is that network paying a right wing hack like Lorenz
In 2016, SEPTA unions thought it was cute & funny to go on strike just before Election Day and discourage lots of people from voting in Philly, handing PA to Trump. Hope they're enjoying the results. www.inquirer.com/politics/pen...
Mr. @govwesmoore.bsky.social we know you got our backs
You clowns keep awarding yourselves merit badges for making things worse. It's really irritating.
Harris was publicly loyal(some might argue too loyal) to Biden, but she repeatedly let Netanyahu have it in ways Biden almost never did. He did not appreciate her behavior at all: www.axios.com/2024/07/26/i...
That's not what you trolls are doing.
One of the people objecting to Biden's behavior was a lady named Kamala Harris. She had a MUCH worse relationship with Netanyahu than Biden's, even though her husband is Jewish. Israelis noticed. abcnews.go.com/Politics/isr...
Whenever I’m facing a moral dilemma, I think of the advice my father gave me. “Never leave a paper trail,” he’d say, tapping the glass partition between us for emphasis.
What? No. That's not how this works. Why do people lie like this? There is no mechanism that will force Republicans to vote for impeachment. Privileged resolutions only allow a vote to force it to go to committee, not be voted on by the house. And it still allows Johnson to refuse to vote.
Time for a sternly worded letter, right?
One of the functions of "leftist criticism" of Democrats is to prevent productive criticism. Many of us objected to Biden's unwillingness to confront Netanyahu, but the media amplified noise of the people playing terrorist and chanting "Houthis Houthis make us proud" drowned us out.
If the "anti-genocide" protestors had specifically been trying to force the Biden administration to tolerate Israeli brutality in Gaza, they would have acted as they did. They took a cause that should have been easy to publicize in clear moral terms and associated it with a dumpster load of ugly.
You know who benefits most from antivaccine conspiracy theories as national health policy? Our enemies.
I just had to block someone who told me Gaza is as important as America. Where do I even fucking start? How can 9 million massacring 3 million be remotely comparable to looming Civil War II among 350 million people with thousands of nuclear weapons and the world's biggest economy?!
Are you trying to tell me that having loads of troops in the streets ISN'T working the way Donald Trump says it is? www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
Gonna sound obvious but in retrospect the right's half-century-long campaign to convince the public that the government doesn't actually do a ton of useful stuff was among the most successful PR campaigns ever
They need a 10 page disclaimer to say anything positive about a Democrat.
Hey, you people wanted Trump. You got him. Try to wash the blood off your hands.
there is a very narrow and very limited way in which this is true, and it’s that if you present as white and straight, you are being recruited, and it is not very subtle
I don’t think a lot of people realize, Nazi’s took parts of American racism and added their own cruel twist. And in the end, cruelty is always the main feature. 😒 encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/q...
Leftists have been doing this stupid lecture since back when they were telling us that Obama was not the messiah. It's just a way of laundering their excuses for supporting the far right.
All talk no action. Why doesn't he send a sternly worded letter? Did I do that right?
I'm sick of you Dems with cordial chummy ties with Republicans who spend your lives bashing Dems with shifting goalposts. You're a critical part of the GOP. Shame on you.
Lee was a traitor.
I don’t know what is it like. My query was pretty pointed
does "confirmation bias" ring a bell?
Whatever happens, smear Democrats. Brilliant strategy.
If you want a good example of this: Go search for all the articles saying that it was McConnell's fault for not stopping Biden from appointing Justice Jackson, because McConnell didn't fight hard enough.
'democrats are obliged to govern but republicans get a pass' is bizarrely the mentality of both establishment institutions and a lot of leftist posting.
Love your stream of Republican PR. Does it pay?
Newsom rattling poor Johny boy
Your denial will never change the facts But keep lying to yourself
Random character: Lo and it was in the time of the Old Kings that ... Interruption: Like, that's just your opinion, man.
Just words. I suppose Bernie will send a sternly worded letter now
Have you read the clr james history?
Time for Democrats to go Galt and let the morons destroy themselves without getting a rescue. Obama, Pelosi, and then Biden all rescued Red State governments and that was a big mistake.
Grant and Sherman and Sheridan were excellent generals.
anyway, enough of your drivel - mute on.
You criticisms are backed by idiocy. Anger is a good motivator for the right, and perhaps for crackpot "leftists", but it doesn't work for a Democratic majority - which is why Sanders keeps losing, for example. Newsom signed the most significant state expansion of trans rights, clown.
One problem the opposition party has is that people like you have been conditioned to blame it for all the terrible things the ruling party does, and then complain it has a bad image as if you had nothing to do with it.
Doing what Newsom does is hard. It's a choice to couch all your "criticisms" in vitriolic and demeaning terms - it's a choice that Republican propaganda has taught you.
And this is why the accounts that complain about Democrats and refuse to call out Republicans are useless. Not a single Democrat voted for RFK Jr.
If they were rightful criticisms instead of whiny gibberish mixed with Republican smears, you might have a point but you'd still be wrong.
not if you are a troll for the ruling party
I will say “only pressuring the minority party” is perhaps lacking as a theory of politics in some key respects
Who's walking around not using their kidneys?
This is a real contender for one the dumbest posts I’ve ever seen
Are you a real person? Because you are the one who sounds like a bot.
In fact, it is a great justification. FDR did a lot of bad things, but he ended the Great Depression and won the war against the Nazis, and most of all, he was better than the alternatives. Governments are not your mom. You don't get everything you want by having a tantrum.
LMAO like I'm surprised *this* is what did it, but hey, c'est la vie!
