Honestly things are hard right now, I get that, but I’m sick to death of the defeatism
“Why should *I* do any work when congressional Democrats will continue to suck?”
We just saw a democratic socialist win a hotly contested race because people showed up locally!

This is the most common response when I urge people to get involved and while it’s entirely true it won’t immediately change things in federal seats, change trickles up and if we don’t start NOW we can only blame ourselves when this shit continues in perpetuity

just spent 5 solid minutes staring at a comatose man on the trolley to make sure his chest was moving and he wasn’t dead only for him to spring up and get out at this stop

Now this is an angry reaction to this debacle that I can get behind
Call a Senator that voted no tonight and demand that they vote to remove Chuck Schumer as Senate Minority Leader.
He has weaponized his incompetence against the American people by allowing 8 Dem Senators to cave to an authoritarian regime. We need real leadership, not the oligarchy’s lapdog

Schumer can be removed from his Dem leadership role this week - 23 Dems (and/or independents) just have to vote to depose him
And they should, given this is his fault.

I believe I’m supposed to be mad that a handful of Senators caved on the filibuster
I’m certainly disappointed, but if the reporting on who was involved is correct, it’s an independent, Fetterman, and a handful of centrists I had written off anyway
Those people were never on my side to begin with!

I am once again saying that we saw what wall to wall, panic coverage of a crisis looked like after the Biden debate and there’s no reason Trump isn’t getting that kind of coverage except for class solidarity.
So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?

You only have to look at polling on immigration over the last 12-15 months to see how malleable lots of voters’ opinions are. The Third Way people and their retained commentators only exist to sabotage progressivism no matter the electoral cost to Democrats.
Pod Save guys saying exit polls show 12% of Californians who voted for Trump in 2024 then voted on Prop 50 in 2025, voted YES to redistrict Republicans out of 5 seats
The median voter is so frustrating and confusing, it’s obvious the answer is to NEVER tailor your message for them
