I've been bitching about these entitled and politically naïve fuckers since November. They threw our Democracy under the bus because Kamala wasn't the *perfect candidate to address their every pet issue.

With less than a year before the midterms, it's important to identify the key races that'll decide control of the House, which states will have competitive Senate races & which battleground states have statewide state-level races that'll be important in 2028, particularly for governor & SOS.

The center of the party is Black women. The sooner you make peace with it, the better it will be for you. Energy is all the populist left has. When it's time to convert that energy into action to create progress y'all chicken out and offer up excuses for your cowardice.

Before state troopers & other cops took over security outside the ICE facility, some of the most brutal verbal assaults on ICE that we witnessed came on weekdays when there were just two women protesting.
They eviscerated these guys & you could tell they got under ICE’s skin in ways guys couldn’t.

The shutdown was the longest in history & thanks to non-voters in 2024, the GOP has a trifecta.
What was your plan to end the shutdown with NO fucking leverage?
Or did you think it would be better to let federal workers go without getting paid until 2027 while people receiving SNAP benefits starve?

Today it was revealed that the Coast Guard would no longer classify swastikas and nooses as hate symbols. Unacceptable. I just met with Admiral Lunday, and got his committment to publish a new policy. Hate has no place in our armed services.

Important thread for my fellow North Carolinians. We need to stand 10 toes down in support of Gov Stein and AG Jackson. #NCpolitics #NorthCarolina
@ncgovernor.bsky.social and AG @jeffjacksonnc.bsky.social will never be JB Pritzker or Gavin Newsom.
It’s not because that’s not who they are or that they don’t care, I mean, if you have been following AG Jackson on any social for any amount of time, you KNOW how much he cares.

It REALLY slays me that every time Jeffries or Schumer make a post, people flood their comments with jaw-droppingly stupid replies about their effectiveness when voters gave them both a minority. It's basically toothpicks against tanks.
Meanwhile, they're STILL underperforming at the ballot box!

A three-time Trump voter told CNN that Trump failed to keep his promise to lower the cost of living:
“I’m very let down by this, because I feel like it’s only gotten worse.”

Why has everyone decided that they should START their political career in Congress?
When I tell people to “run for something,” I mean school board, city council, board of supervisors, town select board, water board, state house/assembly, maybe even mayor.
