New statement from Chuck Schumer:
“Despite not doing anything useful, and in fact being actively harmful to the process in a number of ways, I am here to take credit for other people’s hard work and risks.”

New statement from Chuck Schumer: "Tonight’s results are a repudiation of the Trump agenda. The cruelty, chaos, and greed that define MAGA radicalism and are skyrocketing costs were firmly rejected by the American people." Calls it "a good night for Democrats and our fight to lower costs."

A socialist - not an ex-socialist, not an accused socialist, an up front 'yes, I'm a socialist, and this is the socialist group I came up with, and these are the socialist-inflected policies I plan to enact' - just cracked a million votes in New York City.

Dr Oz said people must “prove they matter” to get Medicaid.
RFK Jr has said “only sick kids should die of measles” and repeatedly laments how disabled people won’t pay taxes or serve in the military.
These are the people trying to cut healthcare.
The shutdown is an attempt to stop them.

Ok so along the lines of "ask vs guess culture" in terms of what different people perceive as being rude or polite, I feel like there's an "ask vs share" culture in terms of how different people approach getting to know someone. Is that a thing? I feel like it must be a thing.

I really, REALLY wish people would internalize the absolute stranglehold voter suppression and gerrymandering have over many red states with high BIPOC populations (who reliably vote blue) before consistently writing off these entire states and saying shit like “they deserved it”.

Is there any actual *measured effect* that the Newsom tweets are having? I keep hearing how they’re “working” but I have not heard exactly how. I read the Alabama one and the comments are saying how great it is but is there a result someone can point me to

considering republicans are trying to traffic children literally as we speak, “we will protect your children from republicans” is a broadly applicable goal that seems easy to sell but i guess we don’t talk about child safety at the kitchen table?
why can't the democrat messaging on trans people be "no, we are not going to force children to undergo genital inspections in order to play sports"

Speaking as someone who used to spend time in their chats, SO much of US contemporary fascism is a function of men assuming that the way adulthood worked was, you got a job and in exchange you got a woman to be your mom plus your sex toy.
They are ENRAGED that they have a job but no sex mommy.

It wasn't very long ago that people would get pretty mad at you on here if you were too openly gleeful about someone dying or the idea of someone maybe dying soon. And it's funny how that just straight up does not happen anymore lol

The phenomenon of white women stealing women of color’s ideas and/or copying their work is really frustrating.
Okay, I normally don't take gripes like this to the internet:
But if you're a white woman political influencer, please don't steal political engagement ideas I've been talking for years and rebrand them as your own.
Someone pointed out that an influencer took my adopt-a-candidate idea -

Yes, it's true. Someone did take your job. And your healthcare, pension, wage hikes and life off a single income.
It just wasn't immigrants, welfare recipients, queer people or women having abortions.
If you want to know who took your money, it's the people with all the money.
