the sooner people internalize this about the dems, stop projecting their fantasies on the party, and start demanding more, the better off we’ll all be.
they spent 4 years studiously avoiding confrontations with the supreme court because they have no interest in court reform. they’re quiet about ICE because they do not want to a single thing about it when they have power. it’s a shitty reality to confront but it is the reality.

Re: Oliva Nuzzi, the message from people in the media is once again clear: they will decide what's good and what's bad while the rest of us chimps sit there and hoot when we're told to.
The subtext to every one of these weepy obituaries: the specifics of Charlie Kirk's life are unimportant because people in the media are better than you, so don't start getting ideas otherwise.

I can't even fathom what January will look like, except probably very bad for the Trump regime.
Absent a major black swan event, I don't see a path to power consolidation for them at this point.
For a number of reasons, not just Epstein.

The timetable evidently has been accelerated.
What's your new predication for when we get to January?
I'll just throw a random one out there: They do release the Epstein files but only after Trump had time to preemptively pardon himself and he tells his base he had to cause it was a Dem smear job.

Everyone's dunking on this former NYT reporter for saying they would never run an unsubstantiated story about emails, but what you idiots don't realize is that the NYT erases your memories when you leave line in Paycheck so maybe think about that, huh
As a former member of NYT’s finance team & the co-author of this story exposing the relationship between Epstein & Bill Gates as well as one on Epstein & JPMorgan, I am really frustrated to see people claiming that NYT sat on publishable info about Trump and Epstein 🧵 www.nytimes.com/2019/10/12/b...

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Am I confused, or does this not make sense at all?
Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU.
YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

This is my assessment as well. They know if they name how horrific the horrors are, they'll be stuck having to push back on whatever the new political status quo is in 2027
“if we talk a lot about ICE and then win, we will be expected to do something about ICE. can’t have that!” this is setting up 2 years of dicking around with bipartisan healthcare legislation that goes nowhere. that’s the plan afaict

At some point Dems are the enabler parent who mollifies the abuser in the moment but does nothing to change the overall situation.
