This is a shockingly bad take from someone as seasoned as yourself.

Axios reports that Reps. Shri Thanedar, Veronica Escobar, Sylvia Garcia, and Emily Randall, all part of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, are the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth sitting Democratic congresspeople to demand that Chuck Schumer cease being Senate Minority Leader.

Never! 🧔🏻‍♂️

I mean, okay? Would they even win these suits? How?

The foe is conservatives.

The Democrats have too many conservatives among their ranks. They're the enemy, too.

Like, why should I find myself having to choose between a pro-labor candidate who's homophobic and a pro-queer union-buster? Why do these people exist? And why can't we do better? 😑

We shouldn't even have to prioritize anything. The Democrats want us to believe they're the good guys, yet so many of them knowingly hold objectively horrendous positions on issues. If they'd stop being shitty, this wouldn't be a problem. Why are so many of them shitty? 😤

What are those Senators who voted no doing in response?

NO CRITICIZE
ONLY VOTE

Lol you fucking clown.

What the fuck?

And we don't have to vote for him.

I am queer. I will not vote for a queerphobe.

omg stop being so dIvIsIvE

I don't think they actually believe this wins elections. I think they move right because they want to, voters be damned. Hell, I think their rather lose as "centrists" than win as progressives. Mostly on account of all the bribes.

Ridiculous. An office isn't alive and doesn't "deserve" anything.

But it's also good to remember that we are denying space to *living* artists when we give space to dead bigots instead, too.
