Rev. Jesse Jackson was a giant of the civil rights movement.
He broke down barriers, inspired generations, and kept hope alive. Our state, nation, and world are better due to his years of service.
I’m ordering flags to half-mast to honor him.
May his memory be a blessing.

Voters of Color are the base of the Democratic Party, led by Black voter and particularly Black Women which have been the only consistent Democratic voting bloc in America that has NEVER flaked out for one reason or another.
Every Pres cycle we pretend this is not the case and it's annoying AF.

And for as much as pundits wail and gnash their teeth about rural voters, they always forget that most of the rural South are Black voters. How long is it going to take for people to understand this?

That NYT "Democratic Voter interview" thing is infuriating because it being 11-2 White w/not a single Black Woman is just pushing the idea that the Democratic Party base is majority White.
We keep going into Presidential cycles with this mindset only to wind up being proven otherwise.
Can we stop?

The real race really is here in the South and Gavin will likely be destroyed between this and so many other things on his record.
If Kamala runs and is still in the race when the race gets into the South?
People are going to be shocked.

I don't know why there is all this talk around Newsom for 2028. Black women will not be forgetting how he was hiking and never got back to Kamala Harris. He will not get past South Carolina.
If y'all listened to Black women in the first place, there'd be a lot less ridiculous discourse.

I'm white, but whenever I get temptations and feelings to "stay home" or "leave it blank", I need to be reminded by clips like this and realize it's dumb and foolish that makes me surrender my voice at a table which many got literally murdered in order to get a seat at.

"Because they died, your generation has the power."
The people he named who died fighting for the right to vote, registering people to vote or died just for being Black is several of many reasons why I as a Black woman will NEVER be "Uncommitted" or "Leave It Blank." I will always vote.

Erika Kirk is once again facing controversy over alleged text messages between her and a 15-year-old dating back to 2014.
Some have condemned Erika Kirk's actions, using strong terms such as "disgusting" and "criminal." Meanwhile, the mother of two has yet to address the allegations publicly.

The problem is his CALIFORNIA record has a lot of issues/problems which he'll have to explain: Starting out with pointing to Electoral Vote reapportionment forecasts for the 2030s and say "This you?".
He'll try to argue results in California, and it isn't a bad counter argument, but I think the complete lapse in judgement in those interviews will be too much.

I'll make a bold prediction right here:
Gavin Newsom will not be the Democratic nominee for President.
He'll have too much high-wattage competition and he's just not strong enough to box them out on any lane he'd run in.

It also shows that when the obvious GOP attacks on her are laid, she loses to Paxton.

Neither Talarico NOR Crockett are winning and it's simply a case of who do you want taking the L.

"Trump is so stupid, why promote Talarico by forcing CBS to dump Colbert's interview with him?
Because they've actually not scared of him because he's in realtiy a white milquetoast Democrat who will mutate and morph into Fetterman if he manages to win in November and they know this.

It says a lot that Hollywood's ire toward Netflix/Warner has been vastly louder and more virulent than it was for Disney/Fox or the prospect of Paramount/Warner even though the latter would be the most catastrophic for jobs and consolidation in Hollywood history.

Thing is we can't know if Hardline immigration policy is still preferred until 2028 or 2029 at the earliest.
It's possible people have seen the extreme and want something vastly different, esp in terms of the Hispanic electorate.
We just can't know until a change of scenery, if you will.

I sadly think it's the latter. There are a lot of White and Hispanic people that are extremely anti immigration and I feel like so many people aren't going to learn from this and think that it was just the wrong person to lead it.

The real question is has *waves around* all this made the overall ideal of hardline immigration policy toxic or is it just because it’s Trump/Vance doing it all?
If it’s the former, we should probably flip at this point.
If it’s that latter…I’m afraid we’re stuck.

This isn’t a “Both Parties Are The Same” doomer post, but this is the terrain of future fights to get the Democratic Party to actually be liberal and progressive on migration policy. There’s been terrible compromises made, over many years, thanks to folks like Rahm Emanuel and James Carville.
