After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run.

We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader.

If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇
Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders.
After yet another capitulation by Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats, it's clear we need new leadership capable of mounting a serious opposition to Trump's authoritarian regime. We're launching our la...

Senator Odysseus (D - Ithaca) says he will not seek reelection, after an impromptu meeting with Senate Siren leadership, in which the Sirens offered "strong commitments" as part of a plan to smash ships upon rocks as sharp as spears and have Ithacan sailors join a meadow filled with skeletons.

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.

If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

I still think it's absurd that they give up now, when I think a much more understandable play would be holding the line and letting the GOP ruin thanksgiving and then doing something to avert ruining Christmas

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer

Not to Andor post here too much but the DSA pitch to Indivisible is a simple one: Don't you want to fight these bastards for real?

If their goal is to pin the blame on a handful of senators who aren't up for reelection until 2030 then you should primary every Democrat regardless.

A jury's power to acquit (not necessarily to convict) is the most unchecked power that exists in our whole system of government. No judge can overturn it. No prosecutor or president can challenge it. Nobody can punish them for it. They don't have to explain why. End of story, case over.

They are unlikely to have the resources to obtain the information necessary to invalidate existing passports en mass.

And if they make it harder for us to leave the country, we may be trapped in here with them, but they are also unequivocally trapped in here with us.

We concur with the members of this jury that tossing a sandwich at a federal agent in Washington, DC should not be treated as criminal activity.

"Europeans recognize his vision about free public transit and universal childcare. We expect our governments to make these kinds of services accessible to all of us,” said Verbeek. “We pay higher taxes and get civilized societies in return."

For a bit I forgot that the current political movement was won with a weak minority and is managed by annoying dorks who nobody likes who have terrible vibes. This video has 1.3 million likes and is a good reminder that better things are possible, even for those of us outside NYC. A good night!

Having never lived in Virginia, and having never heard of Jay Jones until an hour ago, I really respect the way he's brought Virginia together by calling for Republicans to get the wall.
