Pete Buttigieg would be a good DNC spokesperson.
He would do a GREAT job of going around the country, being on TV all the time, and putting out Dem messaging on EVERY issue.
He would be an excellent counter-Leavitt. And we NEED one. He should be holding regular press conferences and putting

I anticipated that Trump would act crazy like when he met with Zelinsky but Mamdani handled him masterfully today.

To everyone saying that people in our military already know not to follow unlawful orders, how do you explain almost 100 civilians murdered on fishing boats in the Caribbean so far?

The government has been shut down for weeks but this is just the most recent example that representative democracy is a failure without compromise.
All elected reps are failures at their one job - which is to make mutually dissatisfactory agreements .

With the Republicans excitement about cutting SNAP benefits, I’m reminded of the story of King Solomon recommending cutting a baby in half. The real mother pleaded for the child’s life while the false mother agreed.
Republicans don’t care who gets hurt in America as long as they have power.

It’s funny that politicians all say “Voters are smart” but none of them would support a constitutional amendment to allow national referendums.
Think how quickly abortion right, term limits and gun background checks could be resolved!

If being elected to Congress was never intended to be a job for life, why does it offer a pension? Why would we want to encourage anyone to stay for 20 + years?
If we can’t implement term limits we should abolish congressional pensions.

Since Trump has no respect for trademarks or copyrights, he probably wouldn’t mind it everyone starting stealing his brand. Trump porta potties. Trump strip clubs. Trump landfills.

I would like to mention that there is no law that prevents journalists from investigating Supreme Court justices. Why are the male justices so submissive to Trump?
Can anyone find that out? Is it financial crimes, sexual kinks or crimes or straight up coercion?
Isn’t anyone curious?
Just me? Ok.

Anyone remember how much Republicans freaked out about the idea of Sharia law in America? They don’t seem to complain as much now that it’s completely legal to force feed employees and students crazy cult versions of Christianity.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social In case you didn’t know, because you don’t seem to know, the Republicans can’t be trusted in budget negotiations. They literally just stood by silently while Trump broke every “deal” they made.

Trump says repeatedly “I have the right to do anything I want to do”.
The glaring problem in the U.S. is that he isn’t wrong.
Our country has always run on norms, decorum, and “understandings” rather than laws.
That philosophy caught up to us with Trump.

DOGE has apparently created a cloud database of gov’t data & personal info about almost every American … used AI to mine it … and, evidently, exposed it to grave security vulnerabilities in the process.
This isn’t dystopian fiction.

I was born an underdog. 21 surgeries by the age of 12 for spina bifida. A kid wearing goodwill hand-me-downs. I knew nothing would come easy, but I never doubted my right to the American dream.
Now, I'm running for the U.S. Senate to make sure all Iowans have a shot at theirs.

Besides me, who thinks Texas and Florida will go ahead with redistricting but California and New York won’t? Republicans don’t care about rules, norms and decorum. They care about winning at all costs. Democrats aren’t matching that energy.

When reporting on the individual benefits of aging in place, I would like to also see some mention of the impact of aging in place on the housing market. A 95 year old widow with a 5 br house is one less 5 br house for a family.

Remember when republicans told everyone that Trump was joking when he said he would be a dictator on day one? What he and they meant was that he would be a dictator from day one.

During Trumps first campaign and term, the media wouldn’t say he was lying. Just refused to use the word.
Now the media won’t call out government censorship. Just refuse to use the word. They write long articles no one reads but won’t use the simple words that resonate with Americans.
Why?

Until Trump, I never realized that half of Americans were completely ok with the treatment of other humans during the holocaust. Perhaps not Jews as targets, but the systematic abuse and dehumanization doesn’t phase them.
If/when it goes further, half those “good Christians” will support it.
